City Fans V Bayern Fans

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Some of the best swaying I've seen in a long while.

Most of them are young men (they'd have to be, it's a bigger work out than an hour at the gym!). Prices are affordable in Germany but I wonder how so many can afford to travel all over Europe with the prices charged?

You can't really out sing them the way they are... it's persistent and if you try and match them (City fans did several times) they just sing you into submission, LOL.

It'd take a major 180 turn in English fan culture to be able to match that. Palace fans would give it a go with their ultras section. It's not just City, we actually managed to sing over them a few times (which many other stadiums wouldn't be able to), it's simply English football now.

at what price though mate? 100 euros a season ticket, germans will have loads of spare cash to spend on football.

that's the biggest issue in england, ticket prices.

Bayern, hands down for me, nice to see a Che banner amongst their supporters, which means some of them from St. Pauli who they are mates with apparently but mind you all German clubs have fantastic support wherever they go.

no way is it 30% we just cant compete. If we had cheap tickets, safe standing and beer in the stands we would be better though imo.

No we wouldn't. All City's support, or the vast majority of it is working class. Booze doesn't come into it. Do you think the Turks in Galatassaray get beered up before a game?

Needs organisation. Ultras to get that going, but there's nothing like that here

Hamburg proved we can create amazing atmospheres. imo better than teams like bayern can

Your spot on with this all we need is cheaper tickets working class lads in the ground and team trying its balls off to create a real atmosphere not two cheerleaders who don't see a minute of the match.

yeah it is now, but so would bayerns support aswell, if they werent allowed to sing, stand, be organised, or have cheap tickets.

I edited my post. Watch Englands away support when the drum is allowed into the ground compared to when it's banned.

i would love a drum at city, it would allow the stupidly fast paced songs to be slowed down and sung in time, unfortunatley we are to "cool" for that. Still think we could outsing them without one though, we just need people to start singing again, especially the south stand who have forgotton

english support is not shit, we once were the envy of the world for atmospheres. most ultras talk about english fans. Difference is now like i said if we had everything the german fans had i can bet nwe would be better

handmade flags look miles better imo, they are cheaper to make aswell, dont understand why someone would spend 800 quid on basically an england flag.

they could happen though, they never used to have ultras in germany, dont see why we couldnt. If we had the cheap tickets and safe standing though, ( hamburg game- cheap tickets) our atmosphere would be amazing

Exactly what would start a "proper" ultras group. But I can't see anything happening anytime soon.

younger generation of fans ??? people getting fed up of the atmosphere. Groups have been started at palace and villa, rangers -people probably thought they would never take off in the beginning, but now they are a huge part of there atmospheres.

Being 14 myself, I know most of the "up and coming" fans, and tbh they're just like the rest. Bounce up and down in the concourse and act the Hardman.

Do Bayern Munich fans have a link with St Pauli?

Yes they´re both full of fookin pimps

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

Great suport-I am sure the team feeds off support like that.

 

[paulchapo]

Most of the continental teams have the same support which is orchestrated singing non stop for the whole game.This is alien to the UK so they will always outsing us unless we go down the same route.

Not as far as I know. Bochum and Bayern are mates.
