The United fans from Devon and Cornwall travelled further.
Not as far as this guy http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03v8xdn |

Bet the Bournemouth fans that travelled up are rightly going mental about it. Surely the company should have to cover their travel?
To be fair, Man U have said that tickets holders can come to the game for free and they will refund all tickets, which will cost them £3m. |

Private company that left it there, police did a great job by all accounts in dealing with that.
Ridiculous that someone forgot to collect a fake bloody bomb
Even more ridiculous that the firm who left it there didnt stop the abandonement |

Match of the day.the whole thing from the smarmy lineker the inane witterings of failed manager alan shearer,the dull punditry of pretty much everyone else who appears,the completely pointless announcement of "what's coming up" the obviously retrospective commentaries etc etc.

Yeah but what happens if the firm had been infiltrated and the fake bomb had been subbed for a real bomb? You can't do short cuts with security procedures.... |

not to mention: we've got a potential bomb. oh, well don't do anything until the security firm that were in last week finds the guy who might have left it there to ask if it's fake...

Surely security on the day would check all the stands, chairs etc way before kick off as a standard procedure.

Jesus Navas.
No idea why this guy winds me up so much, but he does. On his salary, and playing out wide, you'd think he'd have learned how to cross a ball by now. I'm sure he used to be good, but I can't remember seeing this guy play well.

they probably did, this was in the toilets though. utd should never have to pay out for this, sue this company for all of it. |

Should they not check the toilets as well? |

I agree, however the look on Shearers face last night when Lineker commented something of the lines that Newcastle fucked it up and were relegated as a shambles just like when you were manger, made watching it worthwhile. |

This is the real cock up in this fiasco. The device should have been located in the pre match sweep. That is in addition to the fact that the security company doing the training should have counted the bombs out and counted the bombs back in again before finishing the day. Mind you, it could all have been a cunning (though ultimately pointless) ploy by someone from United to get their game postponed so they new exactly what they needed to do to qualify for CL. I can't see them scoring the required 19 goals but if Spurs had lost, that would have been very useful information to go into the game with........ This could be part of the 80% quota, the decision is yours. |

Spurs did lose..... beautifully and in gloriously Spurs fashion! I was speaking to a friend this morning who works for a NGO and organises these types of courses, her second comment (the first was thank Christ it wasn't us) was incredulity that it got left behind, apparently the first rule is you count them out and you count them in as in the wrong hands they could cause chaos (as yesterday proved to a degree!). |
