If anyone’s interested I have made up a load of placards out of thrown out cardboard. Written on each placard, with a second hand marker pen, is :

“ ———————- can I have your shirt ?”

I want one created by [MENTION=3385]crodonilson[/MENTION] that says "Vince Kompany can I have your shirt?"

What's the chances of the stewards keeping the Citeh fans off the pitch?

Actually think there could be serious issues with ticketless Manc fans trying to get into the stadium for the presentation via all the stairwells to our areas. Really hope Sussex police have thought of this and have enough officers to cope. They were useless at the Palace game and you can't expect a steward on rubbish money with no power of arrest to put their arse on the line.

No need to worry, all stewards are armed with quiz cards to ask everyone entering the ground an Albion based question for home fans or City based question for the away end, 1901 members are asked cuisine questions.

So I hope you all know who our manager is

Will they be allowed to bring flasks in? Sorry UNREST didn't see yours!

Won't be any issues. You often mess your pants about things that never happen so have a cup of tea , sit down and don't panic.

Will be absolutely fine. City fans be good value before the game.

Beat them last min and even afterwards wouldn't see a lot of issues

Is the North concourse going to be open after the game? I normally meet a mate in there for a pint and as we'll be on the train even more important that I waste an hour before heading off.

The club has asked me to supply a set of photos. Security will flash a photo and you have two attempts to guess the dish.

The away end turnstiles and exits are the only ones with barriers, they may try other stands.
Then I guess they'll need a fair bit of security.

You jest (maybe) but that was pretty much the scenario at Withdean in the Double Championes clincher v Swindon. Complete home sell-out obviously. So... courtesy of a Gloucester-based Albion chum, we ended up with I think 13 or 14 Swindon-issued tickets for the away end, all spread out on my lounge carpet. Rumour was that away fans would be asked the name of the Swindon assistant manager at the turnstiles by way of verification. Which we all duly did (was the answer Andy King? I forget now). Anyways, half the away end was Albion fans that day, the game ended 0-0 and everybody, Albion and Swindon fans stayed behind and enjoyed the presentation. Happy daze!

That was so funny.



Anyways the club have published their missive with warnings about selling on tickets apart from the ticket exchange.

It also says our lads will do a lap of appreciation before any presentation to Man City should they win the title.
