Booing the Champions League Anthem

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Are you a fan of Baroque music, or merely the rip offs from it? Whoever composed it simply took Zadok the Priest by Handel and changed the lyrics. (Oh and made it worse)

I was saying Boo-roque.

Sorry, I’ve done it again.

I'm late to this thread, I assume the consensus is to give the anthem a rapturous round of applause?

This is the original with natural instruments as it would have been.

I always thought they were singing about lasagne.

Here's the version you want GDM. If you watch, the min-ge moment for me is the highlight.

This is the version City should play today.

What did I just watch?

A music student's rip of the performance. I'd love City to play that version tonight

I’d be staggered if that wasn’t precluded within the CL contract. Sorry to be the boring wank.

Am on the scheme and thoroughly enjoying the fact we are still in the competition. Remember being devastated when Spurs beat us to 4th spot a few years ago.
I have never joined in during the playing of their ridiculous “anthem” but understand why people do it (although I don’t think it helps us/gives us an advantage in winning the actual game). So, in my opinion, it is counter productive.
I think Uefa, as an organization, is institutionally corrupt and has an agenda against us - and I hate them for it. However, I love us challenging for the Champions League.
I also believe the Premier League is institutionally corrupt and is equally guilty in its’ agenda against us and I also hate them for it but I don’t hold either of the competitions responsible for the corrupt arseholes who organize them.

Blimey I'd lay off the espionage films if I was you. It's the rag and scum loving media that has the agenda not to premier league. If that was the case we'd never have won it over the past few years.

The Premier League knows we’ve been a plus for the domestic game. They’ve got a difficult balancing act tbf. I don’t see the PL as our enemy.

The point was made long ago, comes across as daft now and clearly affects the players.

What's worse is the "anthem" gets turned up to ear splitting volume to drown out the boos

Any proof of that?
