I can't remember the band as I was glue sniffing in the toilets mostly...

On behalf of the 45,000 non-self-centered fans, who had to wait an extra 20-30 mins in the blazing heat for those wankers to stop dancing around like 4 yr old twats who have never been anywhere or won anything in their lives, I beg to differ!
Which c*nt were you? ;-)
Didn't have a problem with the band; didn't pay them much mind but they seemed to do what they were supposed to competently. Clearly the fact City didn't arrange an Oasis reunion for that section of the post match events is a bit shit though.
What did annoy me was all the selfish, stupid twats that ran on the pitch- how fucking second division! Once already this season was more than enough but to do it yesterday was just embarrassing.
I do think City should have made better security arrangements to prevent people getting on the pitch. It's not easy but surely they could do more than hire such an ineffectual bunch of stewards. Can't they hire the police and police horses and give out life bans to anyone that catch and identify?
Also, quite why it was necessary to drug test a City player on this particular occasion does make one despair for a bit of common sense. Unless there are regulations that require a player to be tested from each team every game, they should have chosen another time.

We were in the Second Tier of the South Stand nearer to the Colin Bell stand and could feel the heat from the pyrotechnics from there.I'm in 102 as well. Didn't hear much of the band to be honest, as soon as it became obvious there was going to be another pitch invasion we went up to the concourse to get out of the sun for a bit. Returned just in time to get flame grilled by the pyrotechnics!
Must have been scorching near them.

No love at all for Utd or ferguson but as a club we do and can have class. Show respect to a part of the football family who really are going through worrying and distressing times......Now, now.
We’re supposed to love the rags, now that the pisscan has had a brain haemorrhage.
It's what make City fans and club Special.
We are not rags or red scouse......CLASS IS PERMANENT.

She's an ex City player who had to quit through illness and is now a coach with one of the club's community teams.It's not a moan.
Nothing against the young Girl.
I sincerely hope She enjoyed her day.
But come on, does every event now have to have a fan thrown into the mix?
It's the players moment. It should be just them on the podium. That isn't me being miserable. The young Girl could have been involved before or after the presentation.
Can't somethings in football not be left alone. Do we need a fan shoehorned into every event or trophy presentation?

Very anti-climatic day yesterday. I felt embarrassed by how poor the atmosphere was all day.
It was a frustrating game, against in my opinion the worst and most anti-football team in the division. But even the atmosphere during the celebrations and ceremony, you could hear a pin drop.
The brass band was a joke to be honest, but to be fair to them they did eventually get going and try with all the tunes of the players chants. Of which about 1% of the crowd in attendance bothered singing along to, including me and the lad who sits next to me.
I just said at the time, Pep is looking into the stands and there is no passion. This is a man who could walk into any managerial job in football, he must be thinking jeez if this was Barcelona it'd be a deafening carnival atmosphere. We are playing amazing football and the best times in the club's history should be now, but something needs to be done about the atmosphere. We are becoming very plastic, I left the ground and people were happy but barely any chanting. Is this the price of success or something else ?

I (We) enjoyed the band and the presentation stuff. Brilliant having the lads from the City Disability teams bring out the trophy.
Unbelievable amount of miserable gits on here who'd rather be transported back to standing in piss in the Kippax toilets winning bugger all.
Most embarrasing moment - the dickheads who cant keep off the pitch.
