I’m the same as you; state pension age at 67.fuck me ,don't give them ideas.
have they realised the state retirement age is going up for most people.
Im nearly 59 and have to work till 67 officially.
they'll be raising the age accordingly soon no doubt.
Was at the bridge for a work event last night, was quite impressed with all the fan flags still up and around on non match day, something the Etihad lacks with the flags being removed in favour of digital boards.The Bridge is exactly like that and you get shouted down by some idiot if you try to stand up and raise the atmosphere yourself.
The onus should really be on the club to help harness a good atmosphere. There are enough fans at every club who, if put together, could create a loud and intimidating atmosphere. Find a way separate young fans who want to stand and sing all game from the old farts who have done their time to be fair and just want to enjoy the game and the tourists who are just there for a day out and aren't actually fans of the team.
The Bridge just gets loud and rocky for certain games now. Arsenal and City at home this season were brilliant but the rest of the time it's genuinely pathetic how muted and quiet the ground is and the infuriating thing the solution is so simple.
That's my worry, only 5 more years if they don't raise itfuck me ,don't give them ideas.

I’m not sure if this is correct or not, but I seem to recall reading in the discussion on seasoncard renewals earlier this year, that West Ham had raised the age on their concessionary tickets to 66.
If that’s true, then it’s only a matter of time before other clubs follow :(
I wouldn’t want that type of support at City. It’s too organised for my liking.
The top tier isn't open yet.LASK cant fill their statium, embarrassing
;)
The anny road end was very different in the 70's.....cuntsThe top tier isn't open yet.
Better taking the piss out of the Liverpool fans in the Anfield Road stand sat in complete silence next to the Lask fans.

I sympathise,my son is 16 and by the time his retirement comes about,he'll have paid more than you and your generation.I’m mid 30s. My generation will have paid more into the pot than any generation ever and all we’ve got to show for it is broken public services, a dysfunctional and unfit for purpose NHS, tens of thousands of pounds student debt and a retirement age that by the time we are in our 60s will probably be older than average life expectancy.
This country is a fucking shithole.
Sorry, maybe I should’ve posted this in the politics thread haha!
Or, its probably like at City it's the older generation that forms the "core" support and most of the time they just want to sit, watch the match and be entertained as do the ever increasing influx of tourists. It's only the big games that they feel up to it and want to get involved in the singing.The Bridge is exactly like that and you get shouted down by some idiot if you try to stand up and raise the atmosphere yourself.
