Will Mondays game be called off?

[MCC]

No chance of being called off. The only riot will be in the Swansea goal.

I see the Millwall fans have grouped together to help police and protect their neighbourhood. City fans AND United should get together for once to smash some fuckin scum heads in, you can count ME in fckin DEFFO

I haven't been out since about 7pm, but I reckon about 300 moving around different parts of the City Centre with a lot of kids in tow just watching

They've been targeting the "smart" shops. Armani at Spinningfields (near me) that's as far as I ventured. Unless it's got a lot worse since I came home, it's not so bad.

I don't understand how they can move so freely from one place to another. if it was demonstrators they'd have kettled them and kept them in one place. The police just stand at strategic spots and watch

Well, this is in the Mirror.

Manchester City: “We are confident and prepared for any incidents, but are not expecting any heightened tensions for Monday’s visit of Swansea.”

I live in perth, AUS. All over the news here about riots in Manchester. Not good.

A few hundred people have done a lot of damage

They just go from one shop to another and the Police just stand their at junctions and chase them off to the next spot. I don't think they want to arrest anyone. Spectator sport great for the media

The cynic in me says that the police's apparent "hands-off" approach is so that enough damage is done so the government is forced to reverse the planned cuts in police numbers.

If it does get cancelled maybe all 48,000 supporters should head into Piccadilly to "Police" the evening. I'd love to see these sad little hoodies when thousands of football fans decend on them, can you imagine the number of soiled grundies! :D
