Fans have blasted Manchester City after they told supporters they could not bring sunscreen into today’s game against Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium, despite the extreme weather.
Ahead of the game, Manchester City’s Supporter Services tweeted that spectators at the game could bring in a 500ml disposable water bottle with them to the game in order to 'stay hydrated'. In response to the tweet, fan Elliott Levy asked: “Genuine question - can we bring in suncream? I’m in East Stand lower and the sun will be beating down.”In response to the tweet, @ManCityHelp replied to say sun cream could not be brought into the stadium.
The decision was met with outrage from other fans who also questioned the ‘ridiculous’ decision. @Steptoesyard said ‘appalling this’, while @AlexanderBhoy88 described the move as ‘appalling behaviour’. @Azul_76 posted: “Ridiculous. Recommendation is to apply sunscreen at least every two hours If the reasoning is ‘supporter safety’ what about the safety when in the sun during or after the game? Not everyone goes straight from home door to the ground & back either.”
Its not the game I remember.glad I stopped going
Manchester understands need for security at public events. But are there ways in extreme heat to think outside box? • Dispensers filled with labelled suncream in foyers? • Electic overhead canopies for exposed stands for use in heatwaves MCFC have money to do stuff for future
