I see the police have warned them about this plan they have for flares, bangers and the like.
Imagine the police having to issue a warning for what is supposed to be a memorable football game.
Shameful.
Am I the only one who thinks they've made it public so they have an excuse to wimp out?
Give it the big ones on social media only to be piped down by police etc and they have their ready made excuse for doing nothing
'we wud of smashed der mancz if it wuznt for der fa, da police etc....'
Like a guy making threats when he's behind a police/bouncer etc who suddenly goes quite when the barriers removed

The majority of them on Rawks Drift think its the Man City supporters who have caused all the bad publicity aided by the Man Evening News and even The Echo (ha see as usual, they don't do irony).One of them in alehouse lawyer mode said there was no public order issue though setting flares off in crowds could be...which of course is parallel to some genius somewhere else there posting a ream of fluorescent red crowd photos of the morons all holding flares up at their coach..... and actually filming themselves doing it. As always with them, the self publicists are beyond parody.

Doubt it. They've done it numerous times in the past few years. Just someone decided to make a cringey flyer and sucked the fun out of it.
 
That's correct mate. I think our best attended was about 34.5k averaging about 32. Would of been a fair few higher had capacity been bigger and away fans had filled their allocation. Never had a season card those days, used to pay on gate or usually get a ticket no fuss. But what I remember that season is how fervent we were, birds of a feather stick together. The worse we become on the pitch the more passionate and defiant to the rags. Not easy when they were about to win the treble.

That 98/99 season we got promoted, a few qames me and my mate couldn't get a ticket for. So I decided a cunning plan to get in.

I said to my mate - "Eh Steve, your dad's got a wheelchair, we'll borrow it"...... "What for"?
"We'll get in the games with that"..... " Good idea mate, hevhas a spare chair he's not using, I'll borrow it".

So we got my old fella to drop us off at Maine road for a game. Gets out of the car and ste said - "gonon get in lad"...... W"it's your dads chair, you get in".... "Since got in feeling a right plonker as I tucked the blanket over him.

We had a few beers in the Parkside opposite the main stand, where we usually drank and fortunately no one twigged us, it was rammed anyway. About 2-45 I wheeled him up to the disabled entrance of main stand and they charged me 2 quid, and my mate got in free, a quid each bingo!

They had us about 20m to the right of our dugout, towards Platt lane end. Were watching the game cheering the lads on and all of a sudden we scored a goal from nowhere. It was just like a Andy n Lou scene. My mate jumped up out of his chair faster than a bloody springbok as he fisstedvthe air!

"Sit down quick ya d!ck, you'll get us blown"....oops she!t i forgot mate....... Phew close call, we got away with it. 10 minutes later he gives it the "take me to the bogs mate"....... "Can't you wait till HT?"...... "Can I Eck, I'm bursting"...... I wheeled him towards the bogs and a steward stopped us. "Come back at HT lads if you will"....... " Link, listen mate, I'm his carer and the lad's nearly dripping here"...... "Go on then lads off you go"... Gets in the bogs and my mate gets out of his chair to have a peek, I'd forgotten he had a disability till a guy walked in and had to look twice shaking his head in disbelief till he saw our cheeky grins....

We pulled that stunt 3 times that season. Happy days....
I apologise for the typos in here. Not easy tapping away on my phone set to predictive text, especially having Walls sausage like fingers.:p
 

I already wanted to City to dump them out of the champions league, for obvious reasons like!But it would hilarious if the muppets go ahead with their pre game flares/pyro party on Anfield Road, and then city smash them out on the pitch.lol So leave them sett off their flares and crackers etc i say.After all it will be the only highlight of their evening.
 
I just have a quote here from Gary Birtles, in relation to Forest dumping them out of europe.The atmosphere that night at Anfield, was the most intimidating i ever came across at an English ground.But we went on to win the competition.For them their dream of three european cups in a row was over.
 
It seems there are a few determined to incite trouble at Anfield. Some scumbag has posted a pic of a baby's coffin at a funeral with the words David Silva, disgrace to fatherhood.

He was given club leave in December to be with his wife in Spain, who gave birth very prematurely to their son Mateo.

Mateo was fighting for life in as incubator, touch n go if he would live or not. Since then their son is doing well and all is good.

This is why he was out of the squad several games.

And then some scumbag puts a pic up of a baby's coffin with those words on social media. Some real sick heartless morons out there.:rolleyes:
