Empty seats in the rags end

[chaddblue]

Even more just before the end

They were still ‘running’ in Beswick

What do you mean by that?...running?

 

[Kippaxpete]

We had a Rag spy in the row in front of us. I can tell you he was well pissed off and left in a bit of a huff!

I had two dippers sat directly behind me can you believe? My suspicions were aroused by a thick scouse accent but what confirmed it was their pathetic attempts at pretending not to celebrate when the rags scored. Fortunately, our equaliser shut them both up. Oh that and me turning round to shout "Fucking wankers!" into their faces.

 

[One Fan Clapping]

I'm not a seat counter, and i don't expect City fans to be seat counters, either.
Fans get to the game, and fans have reasons to not get to the game.
I know, in the past, I didn't attend when I could have....am I a bad' un?
I have been to a few games by the way.

The thing is if they didn’t shite on about it all the time this thread wouldn’t exist.

So when they can’t even fill a small end from their 659m followers in a derby game they get it.

And quite right too.

Probably rags from St Helens or Widnes there's plenty of them with Scouse type accents.

 

[fitzy blue]

They were all queuing up to drink from the urinals

Suppose that's to make them feel that they were the one's taking the piss.

They go on about empty seats all the time, I’m just pointing out the irony of them not filling their away end!

Maybe a flight from Belfast got cancelled or something.

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

Not a great pic but there were loads of rows like this at the back. Picture taken 24 minutes in.

In the first half they started signing the 20k empty seats song, soon quietened down when we started pointing at the dozen empty rows

that’s my mate looking at the pitch ha

To be fair id be fucking off early if my team was that shit. Im not a fan of this modern day seat counting stuff, I know we always seems to be the victims of it but id like us to be better than that

 

[Half time draw tickets]

To be fair, I have it on good authority that they set aside those seats to make Luke Shaw comfortable but he didn’t turn up

I did wonder at the time but some of the comments I overheard indicated that they were dippers there in the hope we'd fuck up.

Which begs the question: How did they get tickets?

 

[Uwe`s Grandad]

just to prove the match was still going on.

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

It started before the 92nd minute

Closer to 80 mins

You have to wonder at people who pay a lot of money to watch two teams they hate the sight of in the hope the result benefits their team. Knowing that if exposed either set of fans could give them a kicking . Scousers not renowned for their intelligence.

 

[Palerider]

Leaving in your thousands when your team is just one goal behind and can still easily get an equaliser (or even a winner) is utterly bizarre. I'd suspect they left early for their own safety reasons which is understandable I think. They are a funny (weird) support, hardly any of them had any colours on but prefer to dress in black presumably for intimidatory reasons. Just weird.
