Really ? Every single game ? Not for me.Finally, we had a lap of honour from pep and the team at the end of the game Vs newcastle, this will create a great bond between team and fans, plus give fans a reason to stay on at the end.
Been asking for this for 10 years.
Afterwards when pep was interviewed on tv he said "we should do this every game and thank the fans"
As pep came towards the SS he shouted and waved any players over that drifted away. To be fair on haaland he always comes over and claps.
lets have this every game and not just when we lift a trophy.
From experience if any supporter is using public transport for a night game I totally understand why they leave early. Those that haven't tried it should do. Great if you live on a busy route like you describe, not so great if you need a bus change or two plus a half mile walk at the end.Last Mets out of Town are just before midnight on most lines (about 23.15 to Mcr Airport) on a Saturday night. Used to be later than that about ten years ago, you could still catch them at around 00.35.
Buses are fairly similar these days.
Until about ten years ago buses used to run through the night. Was it the X71 Magic Bus that used to run from Town to Moss Side, Chorlton, Stretford, Sale and Alty? And it was only about a quid on that bus! I used to get that at about 02.30 every Saturday night/Sunday morning for years, they were always busy n’all so it’s not like they were a dead service (as my Sister used to moan about me passing out at the back of the top deck and she had to look after me and make sure I wasn’t robbed by all the undesirables and piss heads getting on at that time… although when I went out without her I’d still pass out up there when I was on me Todd and I was never robbed!).
The train still runs until about 00.35 from Piccadilly to Mcr Airport on a Saturday night.
And did you go by the moniker of 'Burnage Blue' back then EB..?When I lived in Burnage and my (now ex) husband deliberately stayed in the pub ...
The adventures of Eccles Blue!!! Life was so much simpler in the 1960's!! *lol*
Every Super League (rugby league) team going back as long as I’ve been watching that sport has done this after every single match they play, home/away, win/lose/draw.
Håland does it after every match.
Anyone remember John Pantsil who did this after every match?
That wasn’t his final game or owt, he did that every game he played.
Wonder whether MCFC should offer free transport to fans back to the city centre. Wouldn't cost too much for the club and means far more fans would stay till the end?From experience if any supporter is using public transport for a night game I totally understand why they leave early.

I’m a mirthless fucker generally but that derby comment had me laughing out loud !!!Special occasions only.
If it becomes the Norman, its not Special and peeps will be offski.
However,I am in favour of BEFORE the derby.
Pep and the team waving our trophies at the rag fans (if they've not already fucked orff) will be off the scale !!
