You're right in that it isn't having an adverse effect mate, but today was pretty poor considering we're on the run in for a title challenge.gordondaviesmoustache said:We've lost four out of the last seventy two Premier League games at home, so it can't be having that much of an adverse effect.
It has very little effect at all. But I enjoy watching the games and hearing a good atmosphere. Whether that be at City, at away games or just random games that don't involve my club or away from the Prem completely. For me, they're supposed to go hand-in-hand. Football is half the match and half the fans.gordondaviesmoustache said:We've lost four out of the last seventy two Premier League games at home, so it can't be having that much of an adverse effect.

Our support was fine when he bought us, though. It'd be naive to say the atmosphere has always been great at this stadium (it hasn't), but we're matching the Pearce era right now in this, one of our Golden Ages.
Let's say we played Hamburg tomorrow... would it be like this?

(Hey, where's the deafening music, PA guy, and half-empty stadium with the match not yet kicked off?)
Too many fans either spoilt by success and permanently expectant or priced out and replaced by those who sit on their arse silently and give you funny looks when you try and vocally back the team.
No wonder away day tickets are like gold dust now (well, when they aren't 60-odd quid), it's the only way to really experience proper City support. Much like United.
