Atmosphere - 2023/24

[Gray]

As others have pointed out, the Scousers barely sung at all, bar for 5 minutes after Liverpool scored. The Scousers were just as nervous as City fans.

Yesterday was probably more about not losing the game, as it was about winning the game.

They sang the deportation song early on and that was it until they scored.

We were struggling to add a second goal and we all knew the Scousers would score, had us all on edge.

Less booze.

Succinct but possibly true. :-)

Way too much made of atmosphere at games. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it isn't. Didn't think it was too bad yesterday.

He’s perfectly entitled to mention it( he has done plenty of times). We’re also entitled to talk about the reasons for it. One of those is his Spanish mates constantly squeezing as much as they can out of what was a largely working class fan base. We’ve milked the corporate cow for all it’s worth and the result of that is a disconnect with a lot of the original fans and a shite atmosphere.

Obviously the same thing happened with utd years ago and a lot of their Manc fans stopped going. The price you pay for success and ultimately greed unfortunately.

And that is my worry, then again I'm better just paying for my ST every year, enjoy the football, and not caring if a few from Outer Mongolia are sat near me, with their silly scarves and iphones at the ready.

Time will come when enough is enough I guess, and many will feel the same way in the not too distant future no doubt.

Pep is the only manager ever who gets asked about the fans not making enough noise! There is another narrative being set by the media over the last few years and it's to criticise us fans!

The swamp is a morgue Anfield the same no media ever ask those managers about there fans sat on there arse quiet as a mouse!

Divisive tactic to get Pep to criticise the fans. Always trying to trip him up.
Klopp and Ten Hag get noddy questions. Ten Hag even got told he was on a great run.

Well this explains a lot

Can somebody tell me why there is less noise from the crowd at 12.30 than 3.00. Are people still tired, has the earlier breakfast upset them, are the vocal chords still dry from the night before, are the decibels in the stadium still half asleep because of the early morning dew?

The standing area if they not singing none stop they should be atmosphere stewards who grabs the fan takes him out and subs him with a new city fan who will keep singing..

I think we miss too many good chances every week and that tends to tense up the crowd thus lowering he volume.
