We don't deserve this team. We really don't. It's like 35000 Barry Manilow fans watching the best team we're ever going to see.The Colin Bell and the East stand look like they could not give a fuck.
To quote Blur. When the days, they seem to fall through you. Well, just let them go.
Bullshit, you could still buy a ticket today, and if you're a season ticket holder and you gave it up tough shit, this excuse about tourists and day trippers is absolute bollocks, its the City fans in the stadium (local, die hards, legacy fans whatever you want to call them) who sit there like fucking statues, no singing fuck all, that's a lot of City fans...absolute apathy...100% Cheadle.
Soriano & Co have slowly but surely replaced the local legacy fans with corporate, tourists and day trippers.

People calling out the atmosphere saying its day trippers etc, and the REAL fans can't get a ticket...bullshit they CAN and from where I stand 119, half the 'city' fans don't give a shit, so all this crap about tourists affecting the atmosphere is fucking nonsense !!!Completely true. Silent and lazy unless we get three nil up. Pathetic
wife: how’d the game go?
City fan: I dunno
Wife: What you mean you dunno
City fan: well I left on 82 mins we were 2-1 up not sure how it finished
Wife: why’d you do that? Why buy a ticket and look forward to it all week and then not stay to the end especially with the game in the balance
City fan: Eh I dunno, beat the traffic I suppose
Cologne we're fined 600.000€ for The Atmosphere at The "Derby" against Mönchengladbach...
Better than sat there arms folded, no singing, no shouting...???Who the f*ck has started turning their phone torches on , there were a few at the Palace game shining thier f*cking phones in the 2nd half , even the Palace fans sung "what the fucking hell is that" , whoever was doing it your an absolute wanker , your not at a Robbie Williams concert singing Angels , its a fucking football match so jack it in.
Our support takes enough shit and shining f*cking phones is just giving them more ammunition , if you wanna act like your at a pop concert buy a ticket for one, not a football match, tossers.
If anyone is in the vicinity of these sad bastards tell them to stop it.

Where do you start with this post...fucking HELL !!I feel like that with all the corporate/ hospitality sections. Most city fans, including myself can’t afford to sit in those areas - maybe as a one off treat. I get it’s a part of football.
From my seat I can see the tunnel club and it feels so out place to me and so at odds with what the core of our fan base and club is about. The club have become obsessed with chasing that market now. Again I understand the reasons why.
My fear is the north stand expansion is basically being done for corporates and it could make the atmosphere worse. Funny thing is, if everything turns south the club will want those legacy fans back.

Spot on mate and we still get people blaming tourists...fucking embarrassingFans from different parts of the ground are blaming each other or other 'types' of fans. It's a defensive reaction.
The atmosphere is shit because not enough can be arsed singing. We have good vocal away support but the home support vocally is shit. Has been for a while.
Nailed it mate...its not tourists it's the "silent majority" at the Etihad, long standing City fans who sit there like it's a fucking morgue !!! HELLO !!! Wake the fuck UP !!!!!Completely wrong. I went to see Barry a few years ago at the Arena. It was much louder than the Etihad today.
I’m guessing there were 40,000 old school blues there today. Most couldn’t give a shit. Once again, when the twelfth man was needed he didn’t show up. Shame as it might have made the difference, the same as Tottenham and Liverpool.
No doubt the silent fans on here will blame the tourists.
Why can’t it be both? I agree long standing fans aren’t singing and large parts of the ground are like a morgue because of that.Nailed it mate...its not tourists it's the "silent majority" at the Etihad, long standing City fans who sit there like it's a fucking morgue !!! HELLO !!! Wake the fuck UP !!!!!
Keep up - it’s the Strictly final mate. Gotta make sure we’re back in time to see Ellie’s pasodoble!Reminds me of the Liverpool game this season. 1-1 with 10 minutes to go. Absolute thousands rushing for the exits.
It’s 2.30 on a Saturday FFS! Where in God’s green earth do you need to be by 3.30?
