Very random, but good for the city I guess. Interesting how they will split the pubs etc. 

 

Surely old Trafford would have been a better option ? 

Tav for Liverpool and F Bar for the Mancs

Nice little earner for us

[Jaspa]

Well that's different.

 

I'd assume our home/away changing rooms are considered up to par with eachother these days? Thought the away used to be a little tighter and had a beam in the middle of it.

Haaland's debut on his hero Vardy's turf

This will be a great day for our city whether we like people from Manchester or Liverpool or not. Create a bit of a fan park on Nelson Mandela park, put on free transport in the city for ticket holders and give our pubs and restaurants lots of support over the weekend.

Be a good few seats and bogs that will need replacing.

Only 33k capacity

 

Wonder if they’ll feel the need to forge tickets

Not sure Man U board need another reason for the fans to get on their backs.

 

Imagine us hosting a community shield between Forest and Derby and how that would go down with the locals.

Bet Derby station are delighted that they've been lumbered with train changes with no actual benefit to the station  

Will be Sheffield and Birmingham that get it. Manchester and Liverpool are two of the few big cities in the country you can't get to direct from Derby.

Ahh my mistake! 

Weirdly would of made a lot of sense having it at the City ground as that's the best train route.... I guess we're all set up for VAR and big TV coverage stuff though.

Don't give them ideas. We'll have the Cloughie Cup

Yeah if they're coming down from Sheffield they'll just change there and come down. No need to change anywhere else on the Midland Mainline.

The thought of a liverpool fan seating in my seat o no😩

I never thought of that. 

 

I don't really want any other fans sitting in my seat. 

 

Errrgghhh ..... makes me feel all dirty inside ..... a bit like when I have to go in a public convenience and the seat is still warm!

We won't be having that big home friendly the week before then, although after the damage to our season caused last year maybe that's a good thing.

It'll just be midweek instead. 

[isaidno]

Surely Elland road would be the more practical choice.

[The_77]

If Roma and Lazio can share the Stadio Olimpico, I think we’ll be OK if Liverpool and Man City fans have the stadium for a day.
