norfolkngood 1,070 Posted May 15, 2016 Two stands at Old Trafford are being evacuated just minutes before Manchester United''s final league game of the season.It is unclear at this stage what is behind that decision.The match was due to kick off at 3pm but this has reportedly been delayed by 45 minutes.It is the Sir Alex Ferguson North Stand and the Stretford End that are being being evacuated - equating to more than half the stadium.hope its just a hoax Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

STAN 29 Posted May 15, 2016 Hopefully the "suspicious package" turns out to be a false alarm. As a country we''re probably one incident away from airport style security at all major events (including football). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thecanaryfan 0 Posted May 16, 2016 Leaving a dummy bomb in the bog. The pinnacle of stupidity.I bet he got home from work and thought "Shizzers, I''ve left a fake bomb in the toilet, should I call the club? Naw, no one will be stupid enough to believe it is a real bomb. It will be ok". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
