Atmosphere 2024/25

[jma]

Would a Brazilian style band boost the atmosphere surely it couldn't be any worse than it is now.
Any better ideas

Which poor sod is going to have to sit next to these pricks

Are they bollocks is was shit since we moved to the Etihad and thise guys were nowhere to be seen under Pearce ect.

It's not just the move mate, I don't doubt that if bluemoon was a thing when the kippax was knocked down and became a daft stand, then we would have all been moaning about the atmosphere then as well, it's all a bit Mandela effect for me, I stood on the kippax loads of times and the atmosphere was shit and it was freezing, when that stand was alive and the crowd was buzzing it could have been minus 12 and you wouldnt have noticed.
It's the same with the ground nowadays, when it's buzzing its great, when it's not it's not,

I went to the England Greece game when beckham scored that goal. Behind me was the Sheffield Wednesday drummers. I wanted to kill them, bring them back to life and then kill them again.

It has no place in the English game.

Hes not wrong.

There's early leavers every week and it isn't just the tourists. And it's happened frequently in the Guardiola era against the teams outside of the race for European spots.

It's rarely tourists leaving early at CL games.

City fans are to blame for the lack of atmosphere NOT tourists. WE need to own this problem not pass on blame ffs

Oh do fuck off. You’re so easily convinced that our atmosphere is significantly better or worse than anywhere else. Most of our season ticket holders have been supporting City since the days of Frank fucking Clark. We’re all 30 years older and don’t chant and jump around for 90 minutes like before. Sorry about that. All the football I watch doesn’t appear to have these features either. I tend see a bunch of people similar age to me behaving, er similarly.

How about we all step aside for these young people with cash to spare and desperate to get to a game intent on creating an “atmosphere” that might satisfy Michael Owen? Oh wait, if they do exist it’ll be a half and half scarf and staring at their phones.

You are the equivalent of the social media influenced teenage girl desperate to apply every filter to the selfie because one half wit jealous troll said you had a big nose.

The paradise that Michael Owen is jibing about doesn’t exist in England. Every club can get up for the big game. Do you reckon the atmosphere for Arsenal v Ipswich Town was amazing tonight? Put us to shame did it?

If that's the Angel pub Gorton lane /Wellington street no way is that only 30 minutes walk to the stadium lol.

It is when I walk it ;)

If we’ve lost our gallows humour we’ve totally lost who we are

It’s not funny or even remotely topical. We’re the sixth top scorers in the league and have scored in 10 of the 13 games in this poor run of form.

If we were on a goalscoring drought, it would be decent hallows humour.

2.5 GPG has been the recent benchmark, so a run of just above 1 is a relative drought.

First 9 - 19, last 9 - 11.

Clean sheets are now the rare commodity though...

This is laughable. Who knows who is leaving early, how many are leaving early, where they live and their travel arrangements?

People leave games early. They left early before. They’ll leave early again. No amount of hot air will change that. Whether that’s City or any other club.

In fact the only thing I am prepared to predict is that it will get worse due to The Co-op venue.

It's not meant to be a critique of our current scoring statistics. It's a self deprecating nod back to a darker era when we actually were rubbish.
