Babs is great and the other City steward who's there all the time is too. They let quite a lot of stuff go but yeah, they don't like us banging on the seats to get songs going. We pretty much had free reign in 113 to do it on Saturday though as they were over in 115 ;)
Did notice in 113, the away fans are more covered up and out of the way, no wonder they bang seats and rip them out to throw. It is a better end for noise, like you say curved roof and its is a bit lower also. We noticed the difference a lot when we sang and clapped, the clapping echoed.
Overall the game was a good laugh, those not at the game that sing missed out on a good one.
About half hour before KO you could see lots of families in 115 / 113 sat down, seats in PL games are usually empty. The gate was 54k, there was 8k Vale fans, so surely of the 46k city fans some more could have moved in to 113 to sing.
Its right Jrb, we wont stop trying, it gets better very slowly. Seven years ago I was in 116 / 117 before we extended the south stand, it was terrible, could hear a pin drop. At least now we do have some noise, maybe it isn't spreading as much as we want it to but for fans in those blocks signing we are enjoying the game.
