Etihad Atmosphere - 2021/22

[Elliot houghton]

Happens Everywhere probably not the extent of us though

away fans in the city end, if our fans dont grab the tickets straight away then they have to go on an open sale ( to blues of course ) via many agencies...... Agencies dont give a flying fk who buys the ticket or where they sit them. Agencies have a target and want to hit that target.

End of the day if our fan base does not snap up the tickets quickly we will see more and more away fans at this type of game. It will happen more as ticket prices go up, games are more plentiful, stream the game sat on your toilet at home.

everyone in a rush to go nowhere, bit like fast drivers in cars.

There's already a Foden song?

Guardiola do you know what he's worth,
Phil Foden is the best on earth,
He comes from Stockport and he plays in sky blue,
He loves City and he hates Man U

But nobody knows it. I go to every home game and a handful of aways and I can’t say I’ve ever been aware of it. We need to use more tried n tested generic songs ie “there’s only one Phil Foden” that everyone can join in with.

The debate on here recently regarding the unfit for purpose Zinchenko song laid bare the problems. People were suggesting sort of online tutorials where you could “learn” the song on YouTube ffs. As an alternative one guy suggested singing “Zin - Chen - Ko” to the tune of “Here We Go” - simple yet stunningly effective because everybody knows the words.

With respect, there’s only one Phil Foden is a bit shit for a generational talent.

Agreed but artistic merit isn’t the aim here. The only point of singing a song about a player is to let that player know how much he’s appreciated. 50k people singing a dull stale old song that booms around the stadium cos everyone knows it is immeasurably better for morale and atmosphere than a few hundred lads singing a song that nobody else picks up on because they don’t know it

Have you never heard

Oh Phil Foden , he's one of our own?

Been going a long time

I think most match-going fans would recognise that Newcastle (like City) have had good attendances for most of their history. The only dip was in the 80s when crowds collapsed everywhere for well documented reasons (hooliganism, Heysel disgrace, economic collapse, etc etc). I was at St James Park for Paul Gascoigne's debut v QPR when the crowd was about 20,000 but in that era attendances were lower at every club. Best of luck for next season. I would love Newcastle to disrupt the cartel clubs even more.

Cheers. It's enjoyable seeing Liverpool and MU fans still - a decade on from "Agueerrooo" - failing so badly to deal with City being such serious contenders.

Don't get me started on tourists.
Fucking filming themselves and the game constantly yesterday.
Footballs dying for me

that’s not bad, don’t see the point in mentioning United again. Most new chants for our players reference United or Liverpool, which is bizarre. More city chants just about the club or players would be good

 

[runforhome1970]

Paulchapo. Laugh at the banality of the argument. It’s the only stick they have let to beat us with. They were spanked and it hurts. Barcode fans lecturing Blues on the necessity to support the team. The irony is brilliant given the history of their crowds.

The history of never having a top flight average attendance below 21k, even amid the shite of the mid-late 80s (selling Waddle, Beardsley, Gazza and relegation etc)?
The history of having a higher all-time average attendance than City despite spending fewer seasons in the top flight, and winning half as many trophies - and none for 50-plus years?

Rangers have a song called i am feeling it. Basically a dance song. Gets the place bouncing and everyone joining in. We should start looking at dance songs and using them. Always thought rhythm of the night could be used to create a great song for a player.

 

[There is a Light]

Jesus a Rangers song and a Tottenham song. Foden’s song needs to be an original.

While early leavers do baffle me at times it's not so much a rush to nowhere for many. It can be the difference in missing a train or an ongoing form of transport. So waiting around for an hour at a station for the next one, if there is one. Some won't mind that inconvenience, for others it's bloody awful.

The Ya Ya/Kolo song is a good example. If Halland arrives we could use this for him and Foden. Halland being the high one, Foden the low one in the song. A bit of a piss take that could work with tweaking.

Agree with what’s been said, we definitely need a Foden song that everyone can get on board with, and he most definitely deserves one.

Oh Phil Foden is magic
He wears a magic hat
And if you take a pop at him
His Mum will twat you back
She'll hit you with a left
She'll hit you with a right
And when we win the League again we'll sing this song all night!

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Don’t usually waste much time on twitter but came across this……..


5 minutes to go 3-0 up and they are leaving, man city you don't deserve anything

If he’d turned his camera to have a look around the stadium, it was happening in every stand. It’s shit, nobody will ever convince me with any excuse that it’s not shit.

 

[Deleted member 77198]

I never really understood it, ok you get home a bit earlier but what is it you do at home that is so important it really cant wait? everyone to there own I guess.

They’re under the thumb mate. Has to be the only excuse most of them have, it’s THOUSANDS of people.

 

[paulchapo]

Foden song.

Phil Foden, ohhh o ho, Phil Foden ohhh o oh, he comes from Edgely, to play for Man City. He rides the 192 bus, his mum will fuck you up, Phil Foden ohhh o ho.
