May sound a bit bizarre but what are peoples travel arrangements for this? Ive been to OT once but that was in the cup so was a bit different with 8000 of us, whats it like getting the metrolink for this?

OT is easy to get to and from.
Bit of a pain if we get locked in afterwards though.
surprisingly, theres loads of city coaches, minibuses in the coach car park opposite....so loads travel that way.
Ive always gone in and out on the tram via the quays - piece of piss.
Usually, you wont see many city shirts / scarfs around ot on derby day - just like you never see anything red when they play at eastlands!

Yep I went a few years back in the league and got the metro from near the cricket ground. Agree with Bainy in that you wont see many city colours and most were on organised coaches. I disagree with it being 'easy' to get to and think that it is the most dangerous ground to travel to. If you are making your own way there then I wouldn't advise colours as they pick on anyone (T**ts)....if possible get yourself on a coach. Only my experience and what ive heard from others though!

Is there ever any spares outside ground etc for our end on match day?

As doesn't look like many floating around on here ? Unless someone wants to prove me wrong :)

Ive never seen any city spares outside OT.
you can always pick up a rag ticket though, there will be plenty of them about with it being a noght game.
 
Hi if anyone has two adult tickets together that they dont need could you pm me - many thanks :-)
 
Will be driving to manc for this one like usual for "home games" - what/where is best place to park and to get over to the swamp, as it's a good few years since last got my hands on a ticket for the derby at theirs..

Everyone drinking in usual places?
