Riots in Manchester city centre (not Salford)

[Anonymous]

Are people that are going to go down tooling themselves up?

no point, you'll get arrested and thrown in with the looters.

but tonight I weep for both my city and my country, neither of which I recognise any longer.

this ^.

unfortunately.

Count me in, I'm gutted, how could this happen to our city

Sounds good to me..... I can just see us all getting arrested ourselves though.
They'll let the scally's roam the streets, stealing, yet arrest us all for football hooliganism.

That could very well happen! Haha!

We do need to all get together and pull together for this don't we?!

Some people are reporting the city as being quiet now, so maybe the looting has calmed and won't continue tomorrow?

I think I'm gonna go down there anyway and help with the cleaning process

and if it does kick off again maybe as Blues we can get together at Shambles, 5pm?

5pm seemed the kind of time it kicked off today.

Haha that lad got fucking flattened, excellent stuff.

See what just 1 man can achieve when he leaves the internet and puts his words into action!

That man should be an inspiration for us all but instead he's been turned into a Gif to tweet to mates.

And therefore more people will see it and therefore there's more chance that someone will get off their arse and do something...

Or they'll just retweet it and think 'Wish that was me'.

I'm not having a go, I just think that if all the blokes on here and elsewhere who are dying to smack these scallies actually did something instead of talking about it then maybe shit would change.

Just an opinion.

No point in "tooling" yourself up, you become just as bad as them, if anything gives the police a bit of power to go on the offensive if there are pockets of lads about, rather than them having to back off and protect the shops.

Has anyone got anything better to tweet about than these riots! tweeting wont help and to be honest im tired of hearing about it #depressing

Got to say what a prick. We love this city, people are out of jobs and homes. All he can do is moan for people talking about it the night it happened. He soon changed his tune after people had a word.

if i was a hoodie, my tactic tomorrow would be to avoid the same place twice. my spidey sense tells me they might go for the manchester fort or (dare i say it) the trafford centre

He has a point.

Talk - Action = Shit.

Maybe a speech like this to get us all inspired?

I was thinking that. Got a full arsenal of stuff at mine but we'd just either get nicked by the Police or pushed in with the scrotes. So there'd be no point. For me I'd be happy for everyone to be able to take baseball bats and hammers and be able to use them at will on these scrotes, go to town on em big time.. it's not an ideal world though and we'd just get nicked ourselves!
