I was on the 6pm special coming back and to be honest, the fella making the most racket in the carriage I was in was some grey haired fella singing about Chips and Gravy fanzine and his appearance on Soccer AM.
Let the young uns have a laugh at the game. As long as they're not obnoxious with it, like the lobotomy candidate mentioned in the other thread who chucked the bottle, or getting in other people's faces etc. But in any group of 7,000 people there will be a certain amount of scrotes, nothing to do with their age as such. Like any team's support, we are not free of scummy shit kickers. Of all ages.
We certainly had a similar laugh when we were 18 and these lads and lasses are the future of our support.
If you don't like certain songs, then don't sing them. Easy. I never sing disaster songs, the rag parody songs (except on Derby day) and I will refuse to sing the name of a certain toerag striker, even to insult him. But I still manage to get behind my team.
Conversely, big singing mobs don't have the right to dictate to others how they support City or sing 'Im a bigger blue than you' songs like that Fulham shit. That's just embarrassing.

nail on head.

Great post

I don't think they were slagging anybody off, to be fair, they'd just had a few beers and were having a laugh. But it just goes to show that it's nothing to do with age. Some people are noisy after a drink, some are quieter. And at the end of the day, we're all blues.
There was so much unity between the team, the manager and the fans of all kinds yesterday and this thread has left me a bit puzzled to be honest.
Ps, no, I didn't clock you Liam. Why on earth did you have a jacket on?

In my eyes if people want to sing a song they will and will catch on. So if enough people sing a billion in the bank then people obv like it. If not it won't get sung. Stop having a go at other fans who are trying to have a laugh and mocking there age so what if they didn't go to York away doesn't make them any less of city fans. Fair play to you lads.

I think I was in the same carriage. With that lass shouting a little at the lads who were singing munich songs?

 

[cinnamon blue]

the blue alliance are great, get the atmosphere going and keep singing going, how anyone can have a go at the them for that is beyond me, so what if it's about united sometimes- there are rivals why not, couldnt go yesterday but the majority of songs you could hear on the stream were solely about city :)

songs like billion in the bank are class

I was in the augustinebeer garden in munich , i thought the blue alliance lads were sound .

not so much shouting, just voicing her dissaproval of it. she then got a chorus of is she munich in disguise. it goes to show it isnt mainly the '' disrepsectful, younger kids'' who sing songs like that

im in my 40's, the young uns are the future of this club. Not got a problem with them trying to create a bit of noise. I was going to the away games when i was 14 too. My lad is 18 and has been all over the country and abroad. He sings his heart out every game. The only idiots i heard on Saturday were older ones in the first half because we were not 4 nil up by half time, slagging the players off none stop. . Boring buggers didnt even do the poznan.

Well yeah, didn't mean shouting shouting, she was just a little iffy about the munich songs, which I agree on. The singing in that carriage was quite decent until some people (not generally young lads aswell) decided to bring out them sorts of songs.

Have to say though, feel a bit sorry for that lad who's voice gave in when trying to start songs! couldn't have picked a worse time for it to happen, i did hear a few puberty jokes from the end of the carriage.
