Bring the Noise

I had to watch it in a crowdy pub over in Netherlands with lots of dippers-fans that had been crawling out of the wood over the past few weeks. It was great to hear the fans making such a great atmosphere. Therefore you could bearly hear what Tyler and Neville were on about. Thank you all in there !

Unreal up there last night, noisy and passionate as fuck.

Agree with Tyler to an extent, watched it again when i got home and he mentioned how good the atmosphere was but also said it's not always like this due to us just turning up and blowing teams away, we've become a bit complacent. Having to chase these fuckers for the title will help with the atmosphere imo.

Yeah, it's kind of weird in a way but I reckon if we'd been going into that game last night 7 points ahead of Liverpool instead of 7 points behind then the atmosphere wouldn't have been quite as good as it was. As much as I'd love more of our fans to join in every game instead of leaving it to several hundred of us in 110/111/114/115/116/SS3 to try and get it going all the time, there does seem to be that mentality amongst our support where as a collective we get behind the team more when we're up against it and need to dig a result out, whereas when it's all going swimmingly well the complacency amongst the fans is prevalent.

I will add that while I thought it was a fantastic atmosphere, I thought - and I'm probably in a minority here - that the fist half of last season's CL quarter-final second leg was perhaps a decibel or two louder. Ditto the first half of the league game against United a few days earlier. Maybe that's because where I was in 115 last night, the noise doesn't always travel well from other parts of the ground. However, what I did notice is that the chants were starting from multiple locations in the ground rather than from the same areas they normally do.

From RAWK:

"I still don't get why fans keep saying we should have won.

City recycled all the loose balls very well. Their fans were the loudest I have ever heard, for the whole 95 minutes. They were really up for it, and worked very, very hard. They could have won by 3-1 if Sterling was more precise".

My eleven-year-old lad said to me with five minutes to go, "Dad my throat hurts, I can't speak, have I not drunk enough water?"

I said, "Son, no, that's what happens when we all support the team."

Two very sore throats today. My lad enjoys going every week going with me, but last night was the first time I felt he was swept up by it all and I didn't need to tell him to concentrate or watch the game, haha!

For me, it was better than Hamburg and certainly on a par with that game against United.

Say what you want about standing sections and stuff, it's always about the needle and just wanting it that much more.

What sort of education has your lad had? He couldn't work out for himself singing loud abuse at the Dippers results in a sore throat ;)
