Thought SSL1 was decent today.

Then again I'm at the back of it, so I would say that.
I thought SSL1 was quiet yesterday. ‘Sometimes I Fantasise’ was good early on but only the back chunk of 115 seemed to be singing it.
Then wasn’t a single song that I could hear between about 30-65 minutes. It was louder and much more consistent against Watford.

Although, 117 gave ‘We’re Not Really Here’ a good go in the second half and the whole ground did join in with it.

I only heard 110-111 sing twice all game.

SSL3 was quiet as well. Just the very back rows were singing.

The rest of the ground were very very quiet.

I said last night, that was as poor as we’ve been for years for a Prem game yesterday. Fulham were a team who’d have gone level on points with us had they beaten us and the crowd was like it was a dead rubber midtable clash between two no-hopers.

Don't think it helped in SS3 that web had no away fans, was still poor tho.
 
Oh, just looked through my phone and forgot i took this:

The Sun was shining right at me so the quality isn’t great, but I did manage to get it before the club removed it (how fucking stupid is that by the way? Has to be removed because it’s blocking the digital advertising… knobs!)

I had to take a few because those stupid club flags along the side of the pitch in front of me in ESL1 were getting in the way (that’s another thing, all flags and banners should be fan lead, those club ones with the players names on should not be there!).

I always feel sorry for whoever is waving the keepers flag, his arms must be fucked by the time 'Doku' starts.

From my view it also looked like Pep came out the tunnel and turned left to put his drink down as the flag was being taken down so not 100% sure he even saw it so well done city. Cant we hang it somewhere permanently between now and the end of the season?, probably not as the club wouldn't allow it , farcical.

Across a boat outside his flat in Salford Quays?

It can be hung on ESL3 opposite the players tunnel. Pep would see it every match. Maybe it’s something 1894 can speak to the club about. I’m not sure the club would allow the Catalan flags to hung there as well.

Good idea that

The club have an unfortunate knack of shooting themselves in the foot with stuff like this.

It’s not like they didn’t know it was going to happen too - Pep was asked about it in his pre-match presser.
 
Good today where I was in in far right corner, everyone chatting genuine blues and when it went off loads of celebrations, concourse was abit slow but I put it down to early kick off
 
Was very quiet “in person “.
It’s a tough ground to get an atmosphere going. I’d be surprised if any club does at Wolves away. Can’t hear the other end of the stand and so can only hear your own little area which has maybe 30/40 involved. Clever of Wolves to put the away fans there. Sun shining in your eyes when it’s sunny and spread out. Very quiet compared with say Chelsea away this season which was very good and loud all game.

Which is why City must relocate away fans down to ESL1/SSL1 round the corner flag....the worst location in the stadium for atmosphere !!

People seen to underestimate the potential improvement this will have on the atmosphere ....!!
