    I think You'll find its the police who told them to evacuate not the club..personally I hope United win and Shiteh lose.

    Funny how its only 2 stands tho.

    The fact it's only two sides is what makes me suspicious. Why are Police sniffer dogs are sweeping the remaining populated sides? Surely if there's major a risk you evacuate the whole ground!

    Think if you evacuate the whole ground at once you could end up with a stampede...They've found a suspect package between the Stretford end and The Sir alex Ferguson stand in the corner.

    I've been waiting for a package for a few days now. Have the silly chuffs delivered it there instead.

    I'm surprised that they evacuated it via a slow method and didn't allow fans to cross the pitch to safety

    My mate flown over for the Man U game from Belfast, he's gutted. He'll get his match ticket money back but not all other costs

    They were probably too busy taking bottles of water off people to notice anything else.

    Graeme Souness said for the first time ever, they were patted down on entry to the ground..This a few days after a warning of terrorist activites from Northern Ireland.

    Nobody has said that the incident is IRA related.
