Atmosphere 2024/25

I know I will get pelters for this Ultras shite off some posters. :-)

It’s orchestrated, robotic, capo led, boring, monotonous, with drums, etc.

But it’s great in my opinion.

The Ultras L1 stand behind the goal is pretty much similar in size, length and depth to SSL1. And that’s where the similarity ends atmosphere wise

And look at the size and the length of the banner hanging from L2. Not a fucking advertising board insight on L2. (cough!)

Click on the X top right, and then on the speaker logo on the video page to hear the chanting whilst watching the video.

Here's a question JRB would you like it if that was the norm at the Etihad and you were orchestrated by some bloke at the front with a megaphone.

Think it's just meant to be a bit fun mate, they seem to enjoy it, English fans are wound too tightly in my opinion. If we did it, I'd join in, call it shit and fake all you want but at the end of the day it's just abit of fun.

Being honest.

I certainly wouldn't mind being part of that. :-)

It reminds me of the Poznan. I took part in everyone in block 111 and block 115 every time City scored a goal during that period before the Poznan died out.

As for following a chant leader(capo), that wouldn't bother me. Or in my case, following a fan who starts the chanting off in SSL1. I join in all the time, even if the chant doesn't take off. I've started chants myself in 110 and on SSL1 that have spread around the ground.

What I hate hearing is complete silence, along with fans just talking to each other whilst the match is being played

I think we could create a compromise, not an Ultra end, but a constant vocal end, and singing section, given the right setup inside the Etihad, which many of us thought NSL2 could and would be. How naive we were.

My arms are that long I can grab the shoulders of two people either side of me. :-)

But I still can’t wave a telescopic pole and small flag properly. :-(

I ended up waving the damaged small telescopic pole and small flag on Saturday at the front of SSL1. It’s fucking shite! The small telescopic pole needs throwing away. Thanks for getting it ready for me.
 
So much going wring on n off the pitch.
The prioritisation of tourists over locals has bit us on the arse. Its left an aging support where younger fans either cant afford or cant get tickets

If the price was right i would buy 3 season tickets in the new stand where me and my 2 kids could sing n shout. Instead i have 1 ticket in the CB3 where i sit listening to people talk about what they had for tea and have to rely in a favour to take one of the kids
Out of interest, what did you have for tea last night ?

Fair enoug.

Shift the away fans down to the wet shit seats in 110,111&113....shit view & shit acoustics.

Make SS3/2 all City along with most of SS1.

8000 City fans under a roof which will project noise down & out will make a heck of a racket !!

Two ends are better than one.

Also, when the Kippax started to become our end in 1965 a few of us grouped up led by Mark Bittner.

We got a few old and new songs going,our numbers swelled home and away when Les Tate and the lads all joined in, and momentum was underway for what became 1000s and a bloody raucus atmosphere for years.

We were the first 'City Ultras' and Mark was the first 'Cappo'

From little Acorns.....
