Could you sit in the rag end?

[One cap Whitey]

From the sounds of it you will be in the corporate area, so very few of the people in there will be true United fans. You should get away with chearing, but wear neutral colours

Exactly. I've done it the last two years and went nuts for both Bellamys goals without getting any stick. There were plenty of blues about doing the same thing. They gave us plenty when that little shit scored at the end though :(

[Dubciteh]

was there for the 4.3 last year but wasnt enjoyable, did you say you had to pay a grand or two or your boss was paying it?for hat money youd get here for the home derby next season!

[fees]

No I will be paying for the whole trip and I think I can get to next seasons home derby for cheaper. I would just need a flight and match tickets as the family live in the UK.

Think i am going to take the risk and pass this one up in favour of going to Dublin in May. Like you said i can get the whole package cheaper for a home derby which would be more enjoyable.

[lets all have a disco]

I wouldnt worry my mate cheered like a bastard in the 4-3 game and didnt get chucked out until their last goal went in.

They are soft as shit in the Swamp,most dont even realise they are playing us.

[Swales4ever]

Come on Beefy, don't make me blush!
that's a kind of comparison even a decent ego like mine can't cope with... I am just a cuntish prick... the Reverend is an everlasting Legend.

[Blue Toy]

Been there, done that, got the fist in my jaw when Uwe put us 1-0 up in the FA Cup.

[gillie]

The thing is these days if you got rumbled its you who would be thrown out as your not supposed to be there.

[Ted Hughes]

Done it a quite few times. Worst one was when they were in the 2nd div & they fucking beat us in a League Cup game with yet another diabolical penalty decision. We were diabolical as well that night tbf. Think we won all the others though if I remember correctly. Some priceless rag comments. It was pretty good being in the raggy area when we won.

[Lev Bronstein]

Was in the U****d rd. paddock for Denis Law's back heel. Had to chew my right arm off to stop me cheering and laughing. I'll never do it again you can't enjoy the game in the same way.

[paulh]

done it 17 time in same seat not ideal but your at game. i fromt he city of salford and a cluster of my mates have season tickets in stretford end. to be fair most of them alright always go with hip flasks and a bonus is i know manager of bars in the stretford end(free ale). would always swap for away end but needs must at times.

[paulh]

typing error awful by way

[Goaters 103]

Have done it a couple of times and it isnt easy.

In 1990 I was in the Stretford End seats when Ian Brightwell spanked in that beauty for a 1-1 draw, and was also in the Stretford Paddock a couple of years later when Neil Pointon got sent off and Keith Curle's pen got us a daw - David White missed a sitter to win it that night too. For Blues with memories, there was a big pack of about 100 Blues at the bottom of that paddock (nr the corner flag) and when Curle scored I moved down and jumped into the pack of Blues through the stewards for the final 15 mins or so.

What does happen when you've sat/stood with their pondlife, is that it totally reinforces why you hate them so much as they are such an abhorrent club followed by every out of town thicko or bandwagon jumper in the book.

[SORTED]

Watched the 100th Derby from the stinkin Stretford End. Frank Stapleton you ruined my 10th Birthday you twat.

I'd sit anywhere to watch the blues btw.

[Bear60]

stood in the stretford shed once for a derby and hated every minute of it, I cannot enjoy myself and it ruined the whole thing for me.

I did the same in the late seventies all of my mates were rags and I hated every minute of it.

[s1ty m]

No.

[bernabias_right_boot]

March 22nd 1986 - was stood in the U****d Rd paddock when we drew 2-2. Arthur Albiston scored an og to equalise for us! Superb!

Borrowed a season ticket from a lad at work and went on a coach full of scum from Preston. On the way back I got accused of stealing the whip for the driver! Scum bastards!

[King Kev]

I sat in the stretford end when it was being converted to all-seater. There was no roof on it and it was pissing it down. They gave out disposable plastic macs but they had the scum crest on so me and my mate refused to wear them and got soaked instead.

Several people asked us why we didn't wear our macs and seemed quite irked when we told them there was no way we would ever wear anything with that fucking horrible badge on it.

[mcfc1632]

I was in the rag end for the 'shamelessly self-indulgent lying munich game....." - and have been in the 'home' end on many occasions at the swamp and many other grounds.

Just depends on what tickets you can get hold of and I am always amazed at just how many CITY fans there are in the home ends - which becomes obvious when CITY score - which happily now is a more common occurence!!

Re the munich game - just surprised I survived being thrown out by stewards because I (and several others) no matter how hard I tried could not sit down and keep quiet - especially for the 1st goal that seemed to happen in installments
