Stags at the Footy on a Manchester Stag Weekend - The Blue Half of Manchester Reviewed





Saturday September 11th saw me invited to the latest Premier League football match at the blue half of Manchester’s stadium Eastlands where Manchester City were to take on Blackburn Rovers. Having just recently released Manchester City as an option for the footie keen stags coming to Manchester for their Manchester Stag weekend I felt it necessary to pop along and make sure things were still up to scratch.

I think summing it up as normal off the pitch the club is well set up to accommodate footie mad stags looking to watch some football on a Manchester stag weekend but on the pitch unfortunately at the moment performances aren’t coming up to scratch. Entertaining nonetheless but the results certainly aren’t following despite the influx of playing talent like Balotelli, Milner, Yaya Toure, and David Silva to name but a few.

Stag and Hen Manchester would certainly encourage Manchester City as value for money alone on the performances of Carlos Tevez – Utter Class!

I ended up on the entry level food hospitality package that starts at £85+VAT which was called the Citizens Suite where you get a car park space if needed, programme, pre and post match entertainment with City Legend Gary Owen and guests, three course carvery meal, half time cakes and pay bar all afternoon. Seats for the ticket are East Stand Level 2 on the half way line which made for a fabulous view.

I enjoyed the meal barring a couple of questionable roast potatoes “me being picky really” and had a fat moment when i went for two pieces of the biggest most calorie inducing chocolate fudgecake I had seen in my life. Bar prices weren’t outrageous and 5 pints of lager, two pints of coke and a rum and coke came to £29.60. The seats for the game were spot on and bathed in sunshine and the only real disappointment was the 1-1 final result but you can’t have everything.

For those stags thinking of a visit check out Man City Football and give us a call with any questions as we can run through all the available options from the basic premier seat and programme package to the higher end hospitality packages as with different pricing for different category games and availability varying wildly on occasions it is best to talk to us about what you want and we will find the best option for you.

Not a blue but a red then don’t forget to visit Man Utd Footy aswell for the Manchester United, Manchester Stag Party ticket options.
