Wasn't the best to be honest, but a decent cup tie atmosphere helped by the big away contingent.Skashion said:

Joey Barton when he handed in a transfer request was the worst booing I remembertolmie's hairdoo said:johnny crossan said:quite a contrast to the cheering throng as Mario arrived, it's funny how the ears of some are tuned in to hear what they want to hear. In the East Stand round me it was just applause and encouragement.waspish said:Can't get my head around city fans booing one of there own players..
There were 47,000 at the recent Manchester derby, didn't stop me hearing the prick in front of me call Evra a black twat, and who was rightly removed.
I was not sat in the East Stand and perhaps instead of citing an agenda of people of being pro or anti Mario, it really is as simple as Mario being booed loudly enough by a sizeable portion of the North Stand to warrant being taken aback by it in the first place.
The fact it was a surprise, would suggest I can't recall too many of our players over the last 35 years being booed before they have even kicked a ball?
Which suggests City fans are pretty sound.

I didn't think it too bad yesterday given the lack of big game feeling.Skashion said:The atmosphere was appalling.Didsbury Dave said:Wasn't the best to be honest, but a decent cup tie atmosphere helped by the big away contingent.

I was in my normal seat in East Stand Level 3 and there was only myself and 8 other season ticket holders in the space around me (2 rows infront and behind and about 6/7 seats each way that I saw) There were however atleast 10 in the same area that booed him as I stood up an applaused as I do all City players and then asked me why I was applauding 'the black twat' so we do have some wanker fans obviously as well as racist idiots, just glad they don't normally sit near me as me and the old bloke in front were slightly taken aback to be honest!

Because apparently Balotelli songs not being sung with the same gusto is apparently indicative of something whereas I see it as part of a shocking lack of atmosphere. So many songs died on their arse yesterday.Didsbury Dave said:Why on earth are you talking about the atmosphere in a balotelli thread?

Yeah, but didn't he score a brilliant goal against Charlton, in same game, I think?
The crowd were certainly cheering him after that.
As the people booing Mario would have been if he had scored yesterday.

The racists on my row were begging for him not to score just to justify there hatred, small minded pricks that they were! Everyone is entitled to an opinion but when people start to brong race etc into it I just think it's downright stupidity
