Let's be honest. When less than 50-100 people can be bothered singing in the singing sections, blocks 111/110/109(with a 1500 capacity), and there's little or no support from the rest of the stadium, we might as well give up.
When you witness Roma's support, 1000+ getting behind their team constantly, it really brings it home how poor and pathetic our support is in comparison.
I don't know how it came across on the TV, but there was a group of about 20 people trying in vain to get the atmosphere going in blocks 111/110/109 this evening. Apart from 10-15 minutes of "when the blues go marching in", in the first half, which sounded decent inside the stadium, there wasn't much else in the way of constant support. Just sporadic chants and mostly silence.
TBH we've been over this topic on numerous occasions since we moved to the Etihad, and bar the odd big game, as a club, and as a set of fans, our support hasn't got any better. Many say it's got worse.
In my opinion. The 1894 Group are trying to improve the atmosphere, with little or no success, even though they keep on trying, as the majority of fans aren't buying into it. As for the club. They might offer a limited amount of support, but in reality it isn't high up on the must do list.
At least the atmosphere should be decent for the visit of Spurs and United.
