Bring the Noise

[Mid Wales blue]

Come on blues.
Make some noise tonight.
I've had to sell my ticket misses has had an operation so got to look after her.
City 4 nil .
Come on boys

This is a shit song, and will never catch on!

Sheikh Mansour drove down the A6, In a Ford Fiesta,brought us back a wonder kid,the Stockport Ineasta.

Does the Fiesta have a sunstrip with Sheikh Mansour and Phil across it. And does it have pink fluffy dice hanging from the rear view mirror?

If not, I'm not fuckin' singing it.

 

[The perfect fumble]

This is a shit song, and will never catch on!

Yeah and it's especially crap to the tune of "I've Got A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts"

We should so more to make the old Viking Call more powerful like it used to be in 80s. Nowadays it's the 'C-iiii-ty, the best team in the land and all the world' but back in late 70s and 80s we focused more on the 'C-iiiiii-ty' bit and the second part we just hummed the tune. I think we should of course keep the second part but the beauty of the first bit was that it could be dragged out for some time to make it a more powerful C-------------------iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.......ty. I've been at games where the Kippax kept it going for ages and it intimidated the opposition. Away games worked well when we were on an open bank, like Oldham. It's an easy chant; everyone can join in and it's unique. It was our chant, no one else's.

I remember we had a song to the banana splits tra la la about kicking rags that then went more family friendly

And i have a avague memory of us singing just city repeatedly to amazing grace

Yes, the Amazing Grace City was pretty good.

Trouble is...the two examples you give of where the chant worked well no longer exist...
The apathy in plastic seats in modern stadiums is sadly a feature of football these days..

Come on blues.
Make some noise tonight
I've had to sell my ticket
Cos things are fucking tight
misses has had an operation
And now she’s getting well
So make some noise tonight blues
And make it feel like hell
City 4 nil .
Come on boys

There fixed it for you.

 

[Didsbury Dave]

This is a shit song, and will never catch on!

To Camptown Races:

Come on blues make some noise tonight, you blues, you blues.
Coz I can’t go, my wife feels shite, you blues, you blues.
We”ll win the game 4 goals to nil
The crowd will push us over the hill
Come on City, my wife’s a selfish cow

Nanananananana na na na na

It could work. V Liverpool it boomed out of Level 3 South Stand for a while. With the acoustic designed roof at level 3 noise carries across the pitch. That's where we need our most vocal fans.

[Oh YeahOh Yeah]

Does the Fiesta have a sunstrip with Sheikh Mansour and Phil across it. And does it have pink fluffy dice hanging from the rear view mirror?

If not, I'm not fuckin' singing it.

And go faster stripes down the side.

Is Stephen Ireland back ?

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Is Stephen Ireland back ?

I never mentioned gaudy pink wheel trims.

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

Quiet and sparse tonight. Really don’t know what the answer is. Lots of mitigating circumstances, and certainly not just happening at City, but it feels like there’s a big piece of work to be done to create a regular noisy atmosphere (and put bums on seats).

 

[bugsyblue]

Back to normal it seems. Though tonight was never going to be a memorable atmosphere

 

[typicalcity...]

Was working till 7 so attempted to sell my seat so I was one of the empties - shame shame shame

 

[Fred_Quimby]

A game too far for me. 4 games in 10 days, 250 mile round trip, 10+ hours. Just couldn’t get there.

 

[There is a Light]

Well that was dreadful, no point in pretending otherwise. Estimated attendance 45,000 (at most) atmosphere non existent for maybe 75 minutes.
