In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.
BBC reporting online that trains out of Victoria are blocked?
The tweets pleading for information on missing kids...
It's deleted. You silly billy.
They'll not be letting trains move
Balloons doesn't sound plausible.
In the chaos it would be difficult to say for certain. I guess we won't know until we know.
Horrible news, absolutely horrible.
Absolutely mental. Luckily im at my misses parents house in the wirral, but this is literally at my doorstep. I work in the printworks overlooking the arena, and live next to the green quarter. Theres videos of it all coming out of my apartment block :/
No information coming out yet, nothing to suggest its accident or terrorist, if people died from a bomb blast or from the stampede that followed. Madness.

Reddit thread; first comment is information/tweets regarding the incident.

Yeah I guess but what I meant was that someone would see them explode .
Heartbreaking. Stay strong.
People on Reddit saying they heard the explosion up to a mile away, struggling to think how a balloon could make that much noise. The explosion was loud in that car parked at Victoria train station on the dash cam as well.
Wouldn't there be obvious visible damage, as well as shit loads of alarms going off if there was a bomb?
The picture of the blood splatter on the girl....that doesn't like something from a stampede
That video of that girls legs bleeding, fecking hell. Please be okay.
They would have to be seriously big balloons to launch people 30 feet across the floor. Can't see that being allowed either in a concert, just doesn't make sense.
Gas explosion makes much more sense.
Mate it's heartbreaking i have just given my daughter a big hug
There's a bomb disposal truck going in apparently...
It was heard 15 mins drive away. Definitely not a normal balloon popping near a mic. I guess it could've been a gas filled one someone had taken out with them?
Not beiinng funny but if that bloke was actually hurled 30 feet across the floor, he wouldn't be on BBC news 10 minutes later telling anyone about it.
Did the exact same with mine mate. X
I agree with you, that's what I was saying, if any balloons exploded they would have been seen so can't see it being balloons.
Jesus christ... balloons
Anyone else reporting 20 fatalities?
Did the BBC just say that the explosion happened at the foyer. So not a balloon.
20 dead Thought that as soon as he said it. No chance he just got back up and then was as calm as he was.
NBC saying 20 dead. Feck sake.
Can't imagine it being a gas explosion there would be way more visible damage. A house exploded round the corner from me last year and there was literally nothing left of it.
Yep in the foyer it's been confirmed.
Christ. 20 dead.
When the dust settles there's gonna be a lot of sadness. I just hope everyone has someone to lean on to help them cope. Especially the families who have lost someone.
