Altrincham supermarket could close for 'Lions' invasion

Exclusive By Simon Greenhalgh


TESCO are considering shutting their Altrincham supermarket on Saturday afternoon because of fears of potential trouble when Millwall FC come to town for the FA Cup.

Extra police officers have been drafted in for the visit of the London club known as the 'Lions'.

A spokeswoman at the Extra store told Messenger a final decision will be made by management on Friday.

Just ridiculous....the worlds gone mad.

[DarrenH]

What a load of old tosh.
Maybe we should evacuate the whole of south Manchester !!

[altrincham]

That is absolutely disgusting hows that going to help with ticket sales, idiots!

[markecky]

I think we should turn off all the street lights as well so they can't see.

If that  goes in the Messenger then it will hit ticket sales again.

[baldrick]

I don't think Tesco will miss a chance to make money

[Dougals Dad]

It is getting a little over the top. I don't think Millwall fans will be out to cause trouble at a place like Altrincham

[Alex]

the football factroy was on channel 4 last night so that might get some people in alty wanting to come see the match just because it's millwall

[Dougals Dad]

Response Posted by: Kenny, Bury on 7:07pm today to the SAM artice on their website: "Yes please, it'll give Lions fans more chance of finding a parking space."

Well, it a thought!

[AT]

How about making the whole of trafford a biohazard zone?

Absolute rubbish so Millwall now ruin Tesco better close Sainsburys and the Cinema!..

We will see on Saturday what measures have been put into place.

[Dougals Dad]

Why has no-one thought of this: close the football ground too!

[SW]

Living in South London its a wonder I can ever get my weekend shopping done!

Surely someone with a brain can keep that out of the delivered version.

I was under the impression that unruly elements of Millwalls support, should there actually be any, would meet up with other like minded folk. I've heard of the odd pub getting windows put through when things get rowdy but in all these hoolie books... I've never read about the Zulus?headhunters/Bushwhackers/ICF/Red Army running amok through Supermarkets for f**ks sake. What are they goin to do? Storm the f**kin deli counter? Push over the baked beans display? Steal sets of nylon socks that are 6 for £3? Start arsing around by swopping onions, garlic and peppers around? Throw old ladies into the freezers?

FFS!

p.s. Great exposure, that'll be an extra 300 blokes with nowt to do on saturday afternoon who hadn't previously realised there was a football match on!

seeing that the police have "advised" pubs to only open at one, where else would people get a drink in alty? tesco is right next to the station, and on moss lane. Personally, i would have just barred the selling or restricted the sale of booze. Though i had been under the impression that millwall were restricting ticket sales to season ticket holders only.

Anyway how the hell am i supposed to get through a full alty game without some beer?

[Jenga]

I am sorry but this is getting out of hand.

FFS they are at present only bringing 170 - that is less than most conference sides.

I am sure more will buy tickets tonight though.

I have think there is still the fancy dress shop on Moss Lane bridge, mayybe that should shut as well in case some ballet shoes get into the wrong hands.

[James Black]

at last people finally are beginning to relise how sh*t it is to work for tesco. at least if natalie does it soon enough we will get the workers coming down and supporting the lads.it needs to be done fast though.
