Concourse Singing

[ninjamonkey]

Chucking pints in the air is definitely a social media thing that started at the World Cup, which I will never understand.

But saying that singing songs on the concourse is just for social media is a bit cynical and miserable tbh.

Maybe it’s just lads having (mostly) harmless fun.

beer chucking has been around longer than that although it probably did step up after those scenes in the big fan parks.

I don't think it's being cynical, why else would you get a great noise in a crowded area with everybody filming but hear nothing from most of those same people in the stands when phones are in pockets? It's not everybody but it's a substantial number

Don’t like it. Don’t like the fact they all have phones out. Makes me pine for cheese and biscuits at half time rather than mixing with the masses.

Aren’t you doing that anyway up in corporate, using the VIP WiFi to check on the hidden webcams in your blocks of flats? ;)

Nothing against it, but......

I'd rather fans get to their seats earlier and sing in the stands before the start of the match.

Will never happen until fans can drink with a view of the pitch

It isn't beer lol

Why?

I just don’t get it.

It’s for YouTube and Instagram likes… phones out, jump around and sing, post it on social media and get a load of likes from other clubs’ concourse crews.

A bit shit, not something I like taking part in, but I don’t mind it too much when we’re good in the stands like we have been away from home this season.

However, it does me fucking swede in when the phones-out-concourse-crew are bouncing around at half time but are too shy to sing in the stands and it’s deathly quiet while the game is going on.

If only there was as much enthusiasm when the game is on.

 

[WestGorton]

Save your energy for the match is my opinion. It is a laugh but knackering.

There will be if the standing areas are allowed to be open and fans can stand where they want to

He’s top of the league, he’s top of the league. Oh John Stones, he’s top of the league…..
Whoops that should be:

We’re top of the league, we’re top of the league. Oh Man City we’re top of the league!!

The best team in the land in all the world!
Sorry but I’m home alone and can only celebrate on here at the moment as the Canadians (back in Vancouver and Nova Scotia) are out shopping!! So I’m celebrating with you all instead!!


Edit. Whoops posted in the wrong thread. Sorry. I can’t move it because I’m on my iPhone! Duh.
