Taking Bags In

[Man_City_Loyal]

If it is security, why profit from it?

pay staff?

If the ones complaining about security try getting in a building maned by MOD police and talking to them.
Also why do some people have to take a back pack every where with them as if they were exploring the Amazon jungle, they are a damn nuisance to everybody around them especially in a crowd. As for paying for storage City
have to pay the staff manning the store.
Some one mentioned about not looking suspicious, what does a suspicious bag look like?

All these bag searches are anti terrorist measures or have you forgotten the Arena bombing or have you got it does not mean me syndrome.

Id imagine a large reason for the No Bags rule is to stop us bringing food drink in so we have to spend our money in the ground

as far as the club are concerned we are customers not supporters

pay staff?

Great point and well made, but a tenner a bag?

That’s the answer. Nice one. A simple thing like name badges could change some attitudes. At least then, when disputes arise, the name of the alleged jobsworth could be passed on and serial offenders could be ‘re-trained’ or given the elbow.
A simple suggestion for the next ‘City Matters’ meeting … and why don’t they have name badges already?

I think all stewards have a number on display on their jackets, so if you have a problem with a Steward take the number and pass this onto the club with the complaint.

Quite correct, but some people need to take a bag with them, thats not complaining, thats how it is.
I used to take my daughter to the game whilst she was a toddler, not sure I could fit milk, nappies, wipes, colouring book, rusks, teething ring etc into my jeans.
I don’t need to take a bag now, just seems an extortionate price for a security measure.

I had a sudden flashback to the miner's strike when I read that... :-)

I can't believe that someone local hasn't already opened up their back yard to look after bags etc for a quid.

It worked with pushbikes at Maine Road.

I think the police had a much better relationship with the miner's than the club seem to have with supporters at the moment.

Need some of the local kids outside offering to mind your bag for a quid.
