Sheps.

Harryseaess Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Manchester United fans may have their ticket allocation for their next trip to Anfield cut by more than 1,000 amid safety concerns.Liverpool City Council's Licensing Committee has proposed reducing tickets because United fans have stood in seating areas and blocked stairways. It said at a game between the teams in March the gangways at Anfield could not be kept clear of away supporters. The proposals are expected to be approved at a meeting next month. The committee will be asked to approve reducing the number of available tickets from more than 3,000 to 1,965 for the game on 15 October. 'Better stewarding' The issue was raised at a meeting of the Ground Safety Advisory Group, which heard in spite of efforts of stewards to reduce standing, the gangways could not be kept clear throughout the last game. It heard the actions of United fans had overwhelmed stewards and that the level of standing had reached a level that Liverpool Football Club's safety management plan was unable to address. United fan Andrew Gilduff, from independent supporters group Stretford End Flags, said if the plan went ahead it would hit fans hard. "If you look up and down the country, standing is rife amongst the away fans, it's not just a Manchester United issue, it's an issue which affects all football fans." He added: "People in the reduced allocation are still going to stand, there is better ways of tackling the problem than by reducing allocation. "Some clubs have stewards in the gangways and in the aisles. At Anfield you are never asked to sit down, they do make an announcement every now and then over the tannoy, but that just goes unnoticed." 'Strange decision' Liverpool fan Gareth Roberts, from Well Red Magazine, said he thought it would be a "strange decision". He said: "Anyone who goes to Anfield regularly will tell you that there is a section of the Kop that stands regularly. "As much as it pains me to say it, I don't know why Man United fans are being targeted in this instance. "Basically any away end of any team that has a big away following, they stand up." He added: "Liverpool have paid the price for that as well, we have had our allocation reduced at Sunderland a couple of times. "It's certainly not just United fans that do it." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-14256327 Complete bastards, like we are the only ones that stand ffs.

Pangaea Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 It's good. Now more scousers get to see us beat their sorry asses. Don't think it's been reported yet here, but the team for Scholes' testimonial is disappointing. Was hoping for some big names, like Zidane, but apart from some token known names (Cannavaro, Vieira and some others), it's nobodies. Scholesy deserved better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren24 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Now then lads. Currently considering getting the new away shirt. I have a query, as trying to find the cheapest place. On the united store, it says the shirt is 44.99, badges are 5.00 and shirt printing is 10.00. So 59.99 in total you'd think (bit steep!) HOWEVER, for some reason it doesn't charge for the shirt printing (assuming you select ANY squad member except Da Laet), so actually 49.99. Now I wasn't sure whether this was a mistake or not, so tried the same with the Home shirt, yet the home shirt does add 10.00 on for the squad player, so rolls in at 59.99. Website doesn't mention that it's a promotion with free print, in fact it even has a banner saying Add badges £5, Add squad player £10. I continued to checkout and it still says £49.99 with the print and badges. Unfortunately they charge £4.95 for delivery which is ridiculous. Gonna head down town now and see whether I can get it cheaper there, although won't be making a purchase today. Alternatively feel free to just direct me to the cheapest place.

aderow Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 De Gea will be making his debut tonight, looking forward to it. Also seems to be a much earlier kick off which is great. Wish him the best of luck.....I doubt the fire will cause him any trouble the way they have been playing. I was hoping some bigger names would be a part of Scholes' testimonial.

Half way through and top although the team below them is 3 points behind with a game in hand and better goal difference. The team is really starting to get together now and is playing rather well. Tromsø has lost some good players this summer, so it remains to be seen how well they cope the latter half of the season. Would be great if Ole could get the title right off the bat Both Hussein and Eikrem have done very well so far this season. Eikrem for Molde and Hussain for Fredrikstad. United must have taught them well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
