Last night was like the Chelsea at home Friday night game, all those years ago, when many thousands of Blues were scared off by MUEN headline saying don’t go to the game.
Credit to the team and the fans who got behind the lads. It was a tremendous win and making the top 8 was no mean feet after the shambles of Bodo. I’m just happy to have been there.
Credit to City for maintaining the safety of fans as far as they we able to. We had loads of empty seats but it at least the ground didn’t get renamed Little Istanbul like happened to the rags. Gala received tremendous vocal support from the South Stand and their fans dotted around d parts of the ground were largely respectful
Our young Blue team can hold our heads up high. For once, the attendance wasn’t all that important compared with the fantastic win and the few young families that attended going home safely.
Hopefully, more of those obsessed with empty seats will attend more home games and call for the overhaul of the industrial scale points whoring system where people join the cup schemes just for the ticket points.
Sympathy for Blues who could t afford the game but I know more Blues who missed the match because of expensive foreign holidays. Good luck to them.
That said, City really need to do some amnesty and stop banning fans for misdemeanours and who have been acquitted of more serious charges.
