or why didn't they show close-ups of the so called empty seats from Wednesday...because you'd find it extremely hard to do so.
Where is the City Ticket office in all this. They contributed hugely to this with that 38k attendance statistic that I am sure is wrong
He was dubbed 'the bald fraud' by bitter jealous rags several seasons back because he snubbed managing them.In what way is he a fraud? Bald I agree.
While we’re on the subject why is bald even an insult? It’s more an observation than anything else.In what way is he a fraud? Bald I agree.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with playing Wednesday-Saturday. All clubs will have that at various times in the season. More than a enough time to recuperate and prepare. And then we get an extra day before the game with Chelsea next week than they do.The thing is it would most likely of been a near sell out anyway today , but the media will most probably now say that pg's statement got the right response he wanted.
Think pg should of gone for the people who decided we would play on a saturday ,while utd & chelsea don't play til sunday ? Regardless of being on tv they have had more time to recuperate for their next game than us & the dippers !
That's more admin, feel free to message Ric with some of the new songs when you get the chance.@ the Mods - any chance the fans —>songs page can be updated on Bluemoon?
Kevin Parker has responded on Twitter (click to see the whole thread). All seems reasonable enough.

My take on Pep’s comment was that he meant the fans being more vocal, rather than it being a dig about the attendance. This seems to be borne out by his latest comments on the subject but accept it is just my opinion.
We were there on Wednesday in our regular seats and at one point, the atmosphere was a bit flat. It’s not uncommon at games when the singing fizzles out.
It’s a bigger problem at cup games - no matter which competition it is and I put that down to the change in fans.
Whilst there are a few of the season card fans sat around us at the cup games, many of the regulars don’t attend. That means we have fans that have either relocated seats or have just come for that game, many with kids.
They don’t sing and when we do, we’re re looked at as though we’re some sort of curiosity. Maybe they’re not comfortable singing along with a bunch of strangers or they don’t know the words to some of the chants.
Whatever the reason, that’s my experience of these games and it seems to be the same every season. If that scenario is replicated around the ground in each stand then it will have an impact on the atmosphere.
Errrrr, noNo, it's an honest question.
We all claim to be supporters, 100% behind the club, dyed in the wool Blues, happy clappers, moaners, fight to the end fans, season card holders, Cityzens, etc, but how many are actually members of the OSC?
Shouldn't OSC membership be a minimum expectation for all if us? It's the only officially recognised club for City fans. It's something that fans used to join at the first opportunity when I was a lad.
It's genuinely being a PART OF THE CLUB. An opportunity to actually contribute towards the club, share views and experiences face to face with fellow members and create a positive environment in which to spread the word.
If you're a true Blue, you should be in the OSC.
