I've always wondered how the police keep the peace at Manchester derbies because to me it seems like an impossible job. The Merseyside derby is pretty easy to police as away fans drink by their ground then walk over the park in numbers and are met by police ,but I've always been intrigued how it works at the Manc derby. I've only ever been to 1 Manchester derby with my mate who supports City but we were the opposite end to the United fans. Do most City fans get a coach to Old Trafford and vice versa with United fans going to City. Because you derby is more intense than ours are fans forced to travel on offical transport or organised trains like Brum v Villa and Arsenal v Sunderland. Because I can't imagine it would be a good idea for a a group of United fans to be walking around Eastlands freely. Your derby has always seemed like a game thats impossible to police as it can kick off anywhere.
