Atmosphere 2024/25

[HowleyBlue]

2-0 to the empty seats. Great atmosphere in the lower tier. The 1894 block did the business. Well done all who made it.

 

[Mr Partridge]

Forest fans obsessed on wembley way about our empty seats. They got it back but I really don't get the obsession, well i do, history, cheats and empty seats its the only thing they can say about us.

Anyway fuck off you small time Robin Hood c****s!

I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure nobody gave a toss about empty seats at football grounds until the social media era. Nowadays rival fans are absolutely obsessed with it.

5000 fans couldn't afford to go today, and they've all had a field day. I'm not even sure who they're supposed to be taking the piss out of. It can't be us because we don't exist. City have no fans.

 

[Dodge]

Very good today lads n lasses.

I salute each and everyone of you.

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Forest fans were shit, they wore themselves out on tubes and trains before the game where I’ll admit they were lively

Bottom tier of ours was constantly steady for the whole 90

 

[Edghill OG]

Yeah, Istanbul was terrible for this.

Just funny that Talk Sport were giving city fans shit for not being there at midday.

Surprised to hear people online thinking Forest were good. Thought they did nothing. Maybe it'll sound different when I watch it at home.

Yep, 30 degree heat, dehydrated with no water, no food for 24 hours, day drinking and everything else we had to contend with on the day. Think kick off was 10pm local time too? FA Cup final atmosphere against the rags a week prior was far superior to that of the CL final.

I think the main thing was the nerves too

 

[East Level 2]

I think the main thing was the nerves too

Especially the last five minutes when we needed divine intervention about three times.

Better atmosphere yesterday, despite the empty seats, than the Brighton Liverpool SheffUtd and Chelsea semis.

Semis just shouldn’t be at Wembley though. Especially with the final just three weeks away.

I don’t blame anyone for not going yesterday.

 

[J.G.Blue.]

The irony of Forest fans calling us out for empy seats, if my memory is right they couldnt even fill there tiny ground when they were winning the european cup 2 years in a row :-)

 

[There is a Light]

I had club Wembley tickets yesterday at the Forest end of the ground. Felt out of place so moved around to the City side, had the pleasure of sitting front row and looking down on the Blues just to the right of me behind the goal. Quality atmosphere, let’s hope we can repeat it against Palace as they will be bang up for it.

 

[come-on-barney]

May get stick for this, but I thought that's the best we've been at Wembley in a non rag game. Absolutely fantastic (despite the empty seats)

It was a real ‘city crowd’ today, great support and singing all game.

Nevizade street the night before, followed by more drinking on the way to the ground, get to the shitty fan park which the queues for food and drinks was hours long. Never felt more drained after the final whistle. I hadn’t had anything to eat for 12 hours and I was gasping for water. Little did I know I was about to spend 3 hours on a fucking bus back to Istanbul. Should have been party time, all I wanted was water and sleep.

Shame it wasn't the 40k from York away but great noise all the same.
I know we're not allowed to express how we felt on Wembley Way in the sea of red, but embarrassed is too strong - disappointed (at numerous factors)? Maybe.
Anyway - turned out well.

Hardly a peep out of the after Rico scored in the 2nd minute. After giving it the big un on the tube :-D

Did feel like we were in for a mauling in the ground walking down Wembley Way with so many Forest there. But good groups of City fans got the songs going and the early goal completely stunned Forest who didn't really get much going until their chances in the second half. Outnumbered by not out sung.

Lots of people in the City end who weren't City fans, lots bringing kids and plenty of tourists. But didn't stop songs spreading around. The final will be buzzing.

 

[Mike Brock]

Superb atmosphere near me in 135, real shame about the number of empty seats

The people fixated on seats don’t go to matches.

 

[DMA's]

Walking down the stairs leaving the ground singing with my youngest on my shoulders. Stuff of dreams. Have felt indifferent towards city in recent times but yesterday was such a great day. Great atmosphere and some great blues in and around us in 543.

Hope the sales for the final can be staggered in a way that the fans who went yesterday have a chance to get to the final.

 

[There is a Light]

A moment of silence please for the Forest fans putting their jester hats away for another 20 years,

Forest must have drafted in some Notts County fans yesterday; they haven’t had that many fans at a game in Nottingham since 1979. In fact, they’ve only had highest attendances as big as City’s yesterday in Nottingham for decades.
