Bomb gone off in Manchester?

I have seen a few Tweets and Facebook posts about a bomb going off at MEN arena tonight. Anyone know if there is any truth in it, or is it just an internet rumour? Hopefully it is the latter.

Islamic state claimed responsibility and my comment about 16 ISIS terrorists killed/convicted with in two and half mile radius of Manchester Arena was relevant.

Daesh will claim responsibility for anything that may further/promote their cause.

At the moment my thoughts are with the people affected.

The 8 year old girl lived 5 miles from me.

Two people from a tiny town called Leyland died.

I knew none of them...... a lad at work, who is usually on the money but was spaced out all day, knew them.

The little girl's mum and dad owned a local chippy or something.

I know people die all over the world, every day, but when it's on your doorstep, rightly or wrongly, it affects you different.

My sister's are always going themselves and taking daughter nieces nephews to these types of things as well.

We went to The Weeknd and Craig David a month ago there. But they aren't kid concerts like Ariana grande was. Bstrds. We are taking Heidi to little mix in October but I'm guessing security will be high as, now xxxx

I got that off her....so we were lucky.


We go again....not looking forward to the nervy moments surrounding the Europa final....nothing to do with foootball.

Never really thought that Ariana Grande concerts are catered for the children. Then again, I'm a little bit out of it on the pop culture.

@shinjury list - man It really does hit home when you put it in that perspective. Hope you and your community can get through these difficult times.

Cheers man.


As I say, I didn't know the girls, or anyone there, so I'm not directly affected, but when my sisters hadn't messaged back by 12pm I started to think sht.
