Atmosphere 2024/25

Only time I saw more randoms than last night was the Real Madrid semi.

Fucking loads of them there last night, very few looked like they’d ever seen football before, most looked completely disinterested while the game was going on and were only animated when taking pictures of their good looking female friend pre-game/half-time/full-time holding up their City scarf with their back to the pitch.

Fair play to the one Spanish lad a few rows behind me who didn’t speak a word of English but spent the whole game calling their players and the referee ‘puta’s at the top of his voice. But he was just one from what seemed like about a thousand around me last night.

Utterly bored of all these non-City fans at games me. I’d rather have empty seats. I am thinking of moving to the new tier in the North Stand, but I really hope City just make that tier for proper City fans instead of these football tourists.
Why do you think they are not city fans? Why else would they be there ?
 
1st 15 minutes musical chairs as as predicted a group of freebies didn’t have a clue where they were sat, tedious isn’t the word
 
I landed at Faro airport about 25 minutes into the 2nd half but once I got to my hotel there was a re-run of the whole game on one of the channels here. Caught it from about 35 minutes in. Atmosphere in the 2nd half in particular came across well with plenty of songs. I know some have said the songs didn’t really spread around the ground though but a couple of “Blue Moon” renditions sounded like they did. A decent effort watching from afar and quite odd that the Inter fans were not really at it.
I was on that flight !
 
I don't know if it's just me but I find the whole "capitan" thing with European teams to be as cringey as fuck.

Three of them last night - the meat head, baldy fell off the seats and didn't get back up again. If I was in that away end, I'd be tempted to tell them to "fuck off", constantly deciding for me what to sing, staring me out and trying to look angry. Watch the fucking game you clowns.
 
Proper bitter bellend him.

I watched one of those Gary Neville programmes where he looks back at games in the guests’ careers, and they showed the last Maine Road derby. Schmeichel commented, ‘that year at City, I lost my love for the game, nearly retired after it, hated it there’.

And then on the highlights they were watching and talking over, when Solskjaer scored against us/him, he said ‘go on Ole!’.
I quite like Schmeichel because he was a great keeper, probably best keeper I've seen live. He will always be a red and that's fair enough but when he played for us and we beat United at Maine Road he was punching the air in delight because we won and he always had a winning mentality.
