Atmosphere 2024/25

[jrb]

It was getting a bit annoying. Lyrics and tune were crap, it was like a 12 yr made it up.

It is a United chant after all. ;-)

I'm surprised you said a 12 yr old.

I was thinking another nursery rhymme.

Should not be singing about the shite unless we are playing them-, especially not constantly!!!

Don't know about that but there is certainly a time and a place.

Maybe not the best choice for the opening 10 mins but, set the standard for the noise level and who are those of us not there to dictate the songbook (I would have done a few City ones first).

 

[jrb]

It's football banter.

Why should City fans be any different?

The 34 year banner hanging on the Stretford End is enough reason to sing it.

Let alone all the other piss takes the Rags have come up with at our expense over the years.

Cheer up ffs

Didn’t like that Amorim chant when United made it up and got it going. I think it’s dreary as fuck.

I thought the lyrics to it were quite funny at first yesterday, but on the 13th time of hearing it it was fucking doing my head in.

I hope it’s not going to become a big staple chant next season.

Same. It’s taken from a shit Bonnie Tyler song and makes a boring chant especially when it’s sung constantly for 15 minutes

They don't like us being MASSIVE

Great support from the travelling Blues yesterday. I quite liked the Amorin song.

 

[TShed]

Why don’t we build a bonfire while we are at it

As it happens that was our song in the mid 60s
Build a bonfire
Build a bonfire
Put United on the top
Put Matt Busby in the middle
And burn the fucking lot

I always sang put the scousers in the middle

Scousers weren’t an issue in the mid 60 s

I was very young then..........

& if it is it should definitely be changed to “the rags are going down” as apposed to “the reds”

Thought the atmosphere was brilliant. Well done Blues! The Ruben Amorim song was brilliant, but personally I'd prefer that tune for our own team/player as it is catchy, easy to sing and can be repeated for a lengthy time. We don't have too many songs like that, so personally would prefer it for one of our own. For example

Erling Haaland
He's got blue blood
Running through his veins
He gonna score agggaaaaiiinnn
Erling Haaland.....

Just my thoughts. Wouldn't waste a good catchy tune on that lot. It was good for the occasion but I think we could use the tune for one of our own.

I've already grabbed my coat!

i agree 100% if we want more people to sing we’re gonna need more catchy and short chants that most people would know!

 

[bladdered]

I quite like the Amorin song.

Could never work out what dirge they were singing during their Thursday night campaign. Our version is much better.

Hopefully other clubs will take it up to take the piss, as they did with 'Old Trafford is falling down'.

Can never ever get enough of winding up those twats after the years of abuse they gave us. Bring it on!

Me too, it was hilarious and set the tone for the afternoon, which couldn't have been better.
As for people complaining about some monotone singing ( bloody heard it all now ) I'll start a crowd funding page for City fans to attend some vocal training with Andrea Bocelli before next season starts.....hopefully that will appease everyone and we won't get anyone else moaning about attending away games.

 

[East Level 2]

I could not understand yesterday in a really big game for us, why people wanted to spend the first ten minutes repeatedly singing a song about the rags. And it isn’t even a good or funny song. It puts them on a pedestal they just do not warrant.

As I penned about five years ago in response to one of our popular chants:

We've won in Holland and in Germany
In Italy and Spain,
But all we fucking sing about is Scousers in Ukraine
Scousers in Ukraine.

Yes these song /atmosphere police are a tad boring IMHO.

The away end was great apart from the Chinese guy I had a go out for permanently recording, watch it through your eyes you **** otherwise watch on TV and let someone else have a ticket.

It was party time, last game of the season. In the London sun (ish) off the back of them fucking up against Spurs. Their main men putting that bed sheet banner together to begin with about Cityn never winning again, their feel good motivational song in support of their manager stolen, made better and mocks the life out of them. I hate our obsession with United at times, this wasn't on of them times. It was fucking great, to the point my close rag mates who I get on with and we never argue over football messaged me afterwards about it.

Much rather that song on repeat, in between KDB songs than the normal large gaps of silence between songs. Great song, great day.
