    Bodo Away

    Well at, 26,000 I have not got a hope in hell - but flights and hotel booked - and just need to hope that there is at least one pub in town with a telly...

    Atmosphere Thread | 2025/26

    I think, for me, yesterday was a new low in being a City fan. I have had a season ticket since 1988, and despite living in London for all that time, travel home and away religiously - even the early European 'glamour' games at TNS, Gocklin, Lokeren, Posnan and the dead rubber at Santander. I...

    Atmosphere Thread | 2025/26

    Yes the German fans spent more time focusing on wether they are jumping, scarf waving or clapping in sync than whatever was going on the pitch - but they did make a big noise and I’m sure their players noticed it. That Yellow Wall I saw went we played them away is something to behold -...

    Bournemouth (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Can I just check that other than the fabulous fans of the South Stand - if anyone else was at the game? From the Colin Bell we could hear Earling breathing - Jesus what an embarrassing fan performance. Worse than Everton, despite some good football too…maybe I should stick to Away games only and...

    Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Not judging at all here - as Villa Park is as shite as the Etihad to get home from - but I was a little surpised that at the final whistle, the majority of our fans headed to the door, leaving Pep and the boys to applaud an almost half empty away end. I know it was shite from the 10th min...

    Villarreal (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

    Got you - but think you need a new Laptop...and yes, other than a bit of clapping - the home fans were shite (but very friendly)

    Villarreal (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

    Sorry - but were you there? 'not a lot of atmosphere in the stadium' We were singing the entire game - even through the crappy second half...not sure if it came over on the telly, but unlike Monaco which was shocking, we were bouncing in the away end - for a very tough away fixture for travel...

    Villarreal (A) - Tue 21st Oct, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

    Fuck me - it’s high up here - almost like SJP. As ever for a Spanish away game - I’d had my anus cleaned and bought my passport, birth certificate and latest blood test results - and I’m a bit stunned. Not a single Spanish policeman telling me to take off my trainers - in fact - not a single...

    Valencia to Villarreal

    Stupid question - any space for 1?

    Villarreal (A) - Tue 21st Oct, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

    Yep - wankers - just arrived in Valencia (lovely city) and it's 10pm and most folks seem to be just turning up for dinner - so how public transport stops at 10pm is lunacy. Anyway - trying to scramble to pre-book a taxi for the 150 Euro fucking trip back to Valencia...

    Crumpsall Synagogue Attack - two people confirmed dead, one inadvertently shot by police along with the suspect

    There are lots of Jewish Blues, of which I am one, and I know that the comments here will be hugely appreciated - and are not really a surprise to me, knowing how wonderful our fan community is. Unfortunately, as almost every Jew I know agrees, it was only a matter of time till something as...

    AS Monaco (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

    Just back to the hotel. What a weird fucking game. If we had pushed just that bit harder - could have killed the game, and I would have left Doku on - but then again, I don’t have a trophy cabinet like Pep. More worryingly than issues on the pitch, was the utterly shocking away end!!! I was...

    AS Monaco (A) - Wed 1st Oct, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

    Here nice and early despite being made to almost totally strip by the French Police - who are typically hoping something kicks off. Three rows in front - 4 lovely Chinese folks. Friendly as I am - I had a chat (one could speak English) - and they bought the tickets from a website (in China) for...

    Season Tickets - 2025/26 | Changes to ticket transfer this season (p101)

    40 year season ticket holder - tick Home and away for four decades - tick Sit with a mate for most of that time and on the rare occasions either of us can't go, we transfer the ticket to each other to make sure the seat is always filled by a City fan - tick Now - have to both buy a burner...

    Fans turning to lower league football

    CTID...but yes, have always had a soft spot for Kettering Town (where I was born). The Poppies are in the 7th tier of football, and normally utterly shite - but its a real community on my handful of visits and as a FOC - takes me back to Maine Road days. Thankfully I don't think there will...

    Wydad AC (N) - Wed 18th June, 17:00 | CWC | Pre-Match Thread

    Of course we should play to win, in the final rounds, but this is just another step into the commercial hell hole that FIFA, UEFA, the EPL want football to become. Excessive prize money, no significant number of genuine fans at the games, corporate wank everywhere, played in a country where...

    Southampton (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Other than a lovely day out in the sunshine, it was a poor performance until the last 20 mins. And, like everyone else, just didn't understand the squad selection and lack of width. But two non-game related observations. On my favourite subject of tourists (I think I am going to start a...

    FA Cup Final | Crystal Palace (N) | Sat 17 May 4:30pm

    100% correct. Agree with every point, and I am a London Blue who is lucky enough to both have the points, flexability and the resources to go home and away for almost every game and have had a season ticket since the mid-80s, and I am also only 10 mins from Wembley. But it's not about me - it's...

    Protest v Wolves

    Concourse in CBL3 - will be protesting as requested. Stand together as ever. Bullshit season ticket compromise (hats off to City Matters for trying) but so much more - pricing, 10 game rule, ticket agencies, etc - to fight for….

    The Anti Supporters Club

    Broken record here....and its been said on this thread earlier....but if there was ever a time for a single, democratic, utterly independent, fan-controlled and fan-operated Supporters Trust, able to use the media, government (with all the regulatory discussion going on right now) to make our...
