Atmosphere 2024/25

Away fans like West Ham singing “is this a library” is getting boring now and a bit rich. London Stadium is like a morgue.

At least we sing “is this the Etihad” as we know our atmosphere is shite most weeks.

Was very quiet up in 314/315 yesterday.

This is why the away fans must be shifted and SSL3/2 be an exclusive City home end.

Two ends are better than one !!
 
“Erling….”
“Haaland.”

“Erling…”
“Haaland.”

“Erling……
“Haaland.”

The stadium announcer chap is by no means the biggest problem when it comes to atmosphere (or lack thereof) but fuck me, I wish he wouldn’t do the triple Haaland thing after a goal.

Like everything at the Etihad it is aimed at 7-year-olds, such as the fast version of Blue Moon and the whole ‘match day experience’ cheese fest.

I mentioned this earlier. Nothing spread. The singing areas were doing their own thing at the same time. The rest of the ground won’t join in when that happens.

I know many hate it, but we really need to be abit more organised like the ultra groups. Not to the level of drums etc but songs, Its seemingly working for many clubs who have this
 
I didn’t think it was too bad in 115 yesterday but apparently KDB also wasn’t too happy with the atmosphere after WHU scored. Perhaps everybody wanted to get home at that point and warm up or everyone became nervous when Walker came on

The rest of the ground also won't join in with complex chants they don't know. Blue Moon is quite short, as are best team in the land and all the world, champions again, were not really here, stand up for the champions, and a couple of others. However the longer chants about the best defence in Europe, follow you everywhere and that Stone Roses thing never seem to spread round the ground. These may be cleverly composed and work at away grounds as it's easier to learn the words, but they just don't spread at home.
At West Ham it's come on you irons or one verse of I'm forever blowing bubbles, at Spurs it's come on you Spurs, that slowed down when the Spurs go marching in or the simple Yid army, and it's the same for other clubs.
Keep it simple. But not nursery rhymes; we leave those to the rags.
As for the extended stand: Why are we building a large second tier if it's not to be the atmosphere end, a bit like that single tier stand at Spurs? It would make more sense to mirror the south stand if it's just to get a few thousand extra seats.

Just let us do our HAALAND HAALAND HAALAND bit.
 
I have no idea what the atmosphere was like yesterday as I wasn't at the match or see it on tv.
I feel we beat ourselves up to much over the atmosphere we are no worse or better than any other pl club.

The pl have got what they want as have the club.

Pl want a good product with no bad publicity, no coach welcomes like the dippers. Whilst that was out of order it certainly increased the volume of hatred towards the dippers. Now I'm not saying football should have coach welcomes like that.

The clubs want to sell tickets at the highest prices forcing out real fans. I know a few fans of London clubs who have been season ticket holders for decades. They don't go anymore because they can't afford the prices.

Clubs will say ticket prices will be high due to ffp regs !

Unless all clubs want the real fans than apart from the odd game per season most games will be like a library.

Personally do I want to attend a game without any atmosphere ? No. I don't want to give up my weekend for that, 70plus quid, than I can't get tickets for the big games with possibly an atmosphere.

I was thinking of coming up for the Salford match but thought, sod it I can't be bothered doing the 600 mile round trip when the club doesn't want me for pl games.

Edit...plus the players are flocked with to many games, means real fans are expected to pay more to attend more games. The tourist are now taking up that slack and clubs realise that tourist are happy to pay big money. It will go pop at some point
