Hey all,
As a Blue on the other side of the globe, I can only gauge atmosphere through the TV. I did make the trip to visit the stadium back in 2010 but that is my only live experience to date.
Watching the match against Southampton this morning, I noticed the culmination of a trend that seems to have been going on for some time now.
The crowds seem noticeably flat. The only player announcement met with enthusiasm is Aguero. Goals are met with ripples of applause. It seems to be happening with regularity at home fixtures now and as a supporter, I'm wondering why.
Is there discontent amongst the fans over there with the direction of the club or the style of play? With Pelle? Has the gloss and excitement of heavy investment in the club worn off after the first couple of titles?
Or am I misreading this entirely?
City fans are known the world over for their passion. This is why I pose the question.
Cheers all.
