So anyway, wandered into town, scenes were absolutely amazing, zillions of reds, couldn't see a fecking thing really but was well worth just being there with all the celebrating Reds
I was queued up outside Albert Square from 4:30ish, then they let people in at just past 5:30.. and the team didn't arrive until 7:55ish (iirc)- so it was quite the wait, being stood in the same place for hours. Worth it though, I was in a really great spot.So anyway, wandered into town, scenes were absolutely amazing, zillions of reds, couldn't see a fecking thing really but was well worth just being there with all the celebrating Reds
He looked fecking hammered. Every single floor he climbed he got up and acted as if he was going to fall off. Was fecking hilarious. What a hero.
One of the best days I've had as United fan today. Got drunk, went to OT, followed the bus and then ended up at Albert Square. Was hilarious. RVP fecking loves it here.
I just can't work out how he got from one ledge to the next? It's too far to jump and pull yourself up by the looks of it. So he must have done some really mad shit with the features on the arches? Someone must have a video?After he'd climbed up to the second storey, the crowd hesitantly cheered because they thought he was a bit off his head. That just encouraged him to go higher. By the time he got to the height in the picture, I think most people were just afraid he'd fall and so cheered him all the way down. He was definitely playing up to the crowd because of the attention.
He was a decent enough climber but it was the size of bollocks that was the most impressive thing. I don't think it was any harder got up the second or third floor than the first, but none of the rest of us was silly enough to try (I'm the guy in the black jacket, second from the right).
His mate in the crowd was absolutely shitting himself that he'd fall.
feck id love a picture of just that billboard...Great picture with that in in the background
Take out the word "view" and this post changes dramatically.Was right in the middle of Albert Square, had a bit of a wank view in the end as the press scaffolds were between me and the bus but the atmosphere was immense and the days a whole was class. Must be a horrible day to be a blue.
Spot on. Makes you proud to be a red. God bless SAF and the boys. Even Arse hair.......just for today mind.Days like this are why you're not giving up on football!
I think it was said so myself yesterdayThat was pretty special. I was at Albert Square from 4pm and had a great view of the boys.
Seemed to be bigger than 99 which really is saying something
SAF and Giggs both said it was.No way was it bigger than '99 FFS
People getting carried away - it was only second to it though, fantastic turn out, and a great day.
How old were you in 99', Heapy?No way was it bigger than '99 FFS

They all did, was just part of getting caught up in the day.SAF and Giggs both said it was.

Yesterday was fantastic, but silly to compare it to that.
See this is why I'm hoping for some decent aerial photographs of the whole thing. I started off at Deasngate Station and then followed the parade around throug the backstreets, and everywhere you went the place was absolutely rammed. All the roads leading off Deansgate were packed with people. A decent aerial shot of Albert square and all the surrounding streets at the moment the bus arrived would be the only thing that could convey the scale.No way was it bigger than '99 FFS

TBF, I was tempted when SAF lifted the trophy...Was right in the middle of Albert Square, had a bit of a wank
You must have been stood really near to me because I also saw him walk there at the exact same time.Saw Bobby Charlton walk into OT reception at about 4:45/5ish. Fantastic day.
