Etihad Atmosphere - 2021/22

So City generate a better atmosphere than dippers ?. It has a lot to do with it still being the old stadium but the fact is Anfiled is noisy as fck whether you want to admit it or not. Grow tf up

As you are a City fan why do you buy into this bollocks about the dippers atmosphere ?

I have seen a fair few of their games on tv. The dippers are as quiet as mice when the opponents are attacking, once the ball is hoofed long than the dippers start the noise. It's a press/media myth about anfield. And why oh way do sky and BT let that lot sing ynwa uninterrupted at the start ?.

I dont think the Etihad is any better or any worse than most grounds
 
Better to come from a group of people, than one bloke stood up looking a dickhead when nobody else joins in

You can be a city fan and know our atmosphere is poor, for whatever reason. It can be admitted, it doesn’t hurt. Honest.

Liverpools is better, not every single week no, lesser teams it’s quiet. By all means believe it’s a media hype, every single manager and ex player, people involved playing or competing against them there would tell you otherwise though.

Blind loyalty is admirable. Again take the media away and ask ex players/managers including pep. Our atmosphere is turd. Has been since we stepped foot in the etihad unfortunately. If you think otherwise go for it. You’re wrong though
 
A bit of, “One Step Beyond” dancing and a few renditions of, “Tearing Cockneys Apart” and that’s a good day out for me. Add in some extra time singing down the spiral at Entrance J and lighthearted banter with opposition fans for a couple of minutes outside and what else do people really needs.
 
Because of covid l couldn't go yesterday and eventually got pics on Sentana with some unknown foreign commentary.
The atmosphere sounded lively and the commentators were excited and appreciative especially when Kev scored.
MOTD sounded entirely different as if it had been turned down.
Which was the reality?

For years the Anfield atmosphere truly was a myth! But there was a bit of a storm amongst their own fans about it early in Klopp’s reign after some comments Klopp made (“I felt like I was on my own at the end” after loads of early leavers, and “it was very quiet today, we need the fans to get behind us more” after a draw they struggled in and the fans were shit), and there was that Liverpool fan on RedmenTV who was slating their fanbase… and they proper sorted themselves out.

I reckon that in the three years before Covid started, Anfield was the best in the country for regular good atmospheres (I’ve not really watched them much this season to say if thats carried on).

Even Pep mentioned how loud the atmosphere is at Anfield in a Catalan TV interview about 18 months ago.

I think it’s all too easy to say how much of a myth their atmosphere is just because that was the case for a few decades. But they were proactive in doing something about it. They get new songs on their fan channels, they have Saturday night events aimed at young adults in a live music club sort of venue where bands play Liverpool songs, and they have the advantage of a 12,500 Kop… their fans quickly pick up the lyrics to new songs.

We have nothing like that. You could tap someone on the shoulder in the East Stand, Colin Bell or Family Stand and ask him what the words are to “Empty Seats at home” or “Ruben Dias…” and I bet bloody loads wouldn’t be able to tell you.

Guessed so but some Foreigners like lots of noise and might turn it up.
The following match was Cologne v Munich and it looked as if all fans were locked out. But it seems small amounts of fans are allowed in the thousands but they must have all been behind the camera. I was completely unaware they were doing that in Germany.
 
Even United now have a proper singing section just above the tunnel that sings non-stop all game. It’s got very strict rules in there, you have to sing all game, if you’re caught with your phone out in that section during the game your seat number is reported to the club and you may be asked to move out of the area (I’m not making that up, that’s genuinely the case!).

Not something I’d particularly want for us, but, again, they’re being proactive and doing something about their poor atmosphere they’ve had for a long time. A lot of proper United fans had grown sick to death of the day trippers diluting the place and I think they’ve got a grip of tickets for away games being dished out to them as well all through fan pressure.

Their singing section even sung all game in the 0-5 defeat to Liverpool and the 0-2 defeat to City. There are videos of them on YouTube when Bernardo’s goal went in where it didn’t stop them from singing, they just carried on.

They’ll always struggle at Old Scaffold though because the stadium is just too big for an atmosphere to carry from one area. You won’t hear them from the other end of the ground.
 
Yesterday the Chelsea fans were the loudest I’ve heard them since the 80s, of course it was 100% gloating but still created an atmosphere and we had little to come back at them with. “Mind the gap cockney wankers” would have done but at the end of the day we just can’t summon the same venom we have for the red history wankers.

I shouted “You’ll never be Centurions” but absolutely nobody else joined in!
