Bring the Noise

Manchester City on Derby day is a reminder of our past and of staying loyal through the very darkest of times. You are repeatedly trying repeatedly to demean us.

It’ll be a typical Derby Day for the fans. A few nerves tonight, a load of bravado tomorrow morning. Then nerves, then bravado, all the way up until the gates open and then the beer will kick in as we get in the ground with lots of singing and intimidation, only for it to die down if we come under sustained pressure. Then some anger, some more singing as we get amongst it, and absolute elation if we go ahead. Then, back to nerves as the game goes further, and so on until the final whistle where a load of Blues couldn’t handle the tense atmosphere and fucked off to either get back home or headed back to the pub.

Nothing changes on Derby Day, the only thing is the score.
 
Some clueless div was getting a right bollocking back of 316 against spurs .Stood up in everyone's way just panning round the ground with the phone out.Five lads screaming at him sit down and put your fucking phone away...clueless.
 
Situation different for us we have to win zero pressure on the rags who will just park the bus and waste time dive all game will get some good chances on the break like most teams do..

Noise wise It be great for 5/10 minutes then it will get nervy quiet unless we score an early goal.

I disagree…it’s starts with the FANS,we want them to win DESPERATELY……most of the players aren’t City fans,naive to think they are….we need to become the TWELFTH man….I’d like to think we are ALL CTWD

Maybe they are not all City fans but they are all professional and it is just as much for pride in their job as well as being City fans. They want to win to prove they are good at their job.
 
There’s an interesting answer to a question about football crowd noise on TV on this week’s Rest Is Entertainment podcast.

I can only guess how many permanent mics they have in the roof of the Kop.

It mentions that the sound is mixed live in the OB truck outside the ground. And that we’re very susceptible to being manipulated by the sound.

There’s also an interesting fact about curtains

And the South Stand as well, the number of times I have been cheering and yelling and singing and shouting toward the South Stand. They tell us they are the noisy stand well a lot of the time they are not. It's as if they are a bit scared of shouting when we aren't playing well. As if they think they might jinx them.
NO, NO, NO, shout and scream and sing and yell to give them encouragement when they aren't playing well. JMHO :-)

My 2 lads aren't as interested anymore if we only get North stand tickets, tourists with phones, away fans, school tours, silent blues. We're in SS3 tomorrow, up the back. Always great up there.

Sneaking into the South stand might prove a bit difficult. Are you on the lower tier?

Isn't the tunnel club in the way?

Oh, there's plenty of shouting and screaming in the South Stand whenever a pass goes astray or a keeper fumbles the ball. It usually includes words beginning with S and ending in T. I can confirm.
 
South stand/colin bell corner level 2 any good for atmosphere? Surely everyone is up for it tomorrow
