You could park at MEN Arena for £3, then it's a 15min walk from there.

Loads of parking. Most of it less than the Reebok charges...

Nearest train is Picc

If you fancy a scoop or 8, train, then bus from Picc Gardens

It looks like City rested many of their star players during last nights 3-0 win against SV Saltzburg so that they will be fressh to play us on Saturday. Tevez wasn't even on the bench is he injured??

Also my son told me that it was snowing in Manchester yesterday, so is the game likely to be postponed??
Depression is just a state of mind, supporting Bolton is also a state of mind hence supporting Bolton must be depressing QED

No chance of it being postponed.

Tevez was rested.

The Arena is a tiny walk aways, always good for a pint in the city afterwards

maybe if you're Bear Grylls. if i lived at the arena id still want to drive/taxi to the ground!

anyways, theres tons of parking within spitting distance of the ground, but if its town centre you want then there is loads behind Picciadilly, Ducie St, Ancoats.. also plenty of busses from town, but if theres enough of you to fill a cab then thats always favourite.

is always the best away day for me, as was maine rd. gutted i cant go.

When I spoke with the ticket office they said they hadn't got many left. Maybe?

We've asked for extra, which is unusual for us. We had sold 2,600 as of yesterday, which is very decent.

Looks like Holden may not be ready to return for this fixture.

Anyone able to get me a ticket for this or have a spare? I can't get to the ticket office and they weren't able to tell me if it's buy on the gate. Will be happy to meet at the gate or a pub to pay. Contrary to the stereotype, I'm not a theiving Aussie as CAPS will vouch. :D

If you let me know before 9 in the morning, I can get you one picked up, so long as there isn't a load of snow overnight

We'll be in Manc early doors

No worries mate. Could you PM your phone number. I'll send you a text to let you know what I'm doing. I'm in Manc early as well as I have an MRI in Failsworth, of all bloody places...
