City to be charged for booing Champions League jingle (anthem)

I just think our total lack of performance in the CL is related to our total lack of support and interest.

Can't speak for others but I booed it and still wanted us to perform and win as much as every other game I cheer City on in. The Stadium erupted when the winner went in.

If they had only ignored us we probably would have stopped the protest eventually, month by month a few more fans would just give up and stand silently through the music.

They've made the biggest mistake possible, told us to shut up, brought it to the attention of all the European media and made us even louder.

You fucking dumb cunts.

Would love to win the Champions League this year. City versus Bayern in the final. We could boo the song and they could protest outside for the first five minutes.

(champions league) how many of there teams are (league champions) and playing in there daft cup

give it back to the real football fans and make it champions only and bring the (European cup) and well your at it bring back the (cup winners cup) and the (uefa cup) that way we would get a better premier league and the dreams of many fans can happen all over again the dream of being the best team in England and Europe and stop all this crap about 4th place glory

the FA cup was special not just winning the cup but also the only team in the uefa (cup winners cup) next season and the league cup aswell was a great thing to win with (uefa cup) football the following season also the 3 place from the league was better than the shitty champions league we have now

Not exactly correct. When we won it in 1970, we played Chelsea in the semis the following season, as Chelsea won the FA Cup the same night we won the Cup Winners Cup.

Great article by Martin Samuel on this subject today ( sorry can't provide a link). He urges all fans to heckle their 'anthem' - he ridicules their choice of music too. He ends his excellent piece with "Altogether now: boooo".
Thank you again Mr Samuel - the nail hit firmly on the head.

Not just European press. It is all over CNN here in Malaysia

Never mind racism, or their own institutional corruption. Let's clamp down hard on people booing a song.

This. It's laughable really.
