Etihad Atmosphere - 2021/22

[There is a Light]

Ruben Dias , our number three...

Too right, drum banging cunts can't fuck right off, as well as those twats with megaphones 'leading' the home end with organised chants. The moment that arrives at the Etihad I'm off.

The crowd responds to what is on the pitch, especially dodgy reffing, or snide tackles by the opposition, or even going one down. Today was cold and we dominated, but there was little passion on the pitch and little in the stands.

People will get involved when they want to, forcing them will not get any good result.

Ultimately it’s awful Dave, it’s not just a problem at ours it’s all over.I’m hoping the standing areas will generate a bit of an atmosphere

Safe standing should bring much more stand and shout (and less screams from Poznan injuries caused by tight seating areas).

Although I want standing back at football, I don’t think this will make any difference personally in its current format. The main difference with modern stadiums and traditional terracing is you are allocated a seat/space. A group can’t just decide to go and stand together, have a drink and a laugh etc. The likelihood is that would be sat in different areas. Unless they make it un allocated standing I can’t see how it will make a difference unfortunately.

depends how they implement it. If, for example family stand level 1 was made into a safe standing/ singing area that would make a huge difference.

we’d finally have a proper home end and have two singing sections in the ground

I think it has made a bit of a difference already (hard to tell based on a small number of games, but home games have definitely been better so far this season). I've pitched unallocated seating to the club - it seems like security won't allow it.

In all honesty though, in 115, most people just bunch in with their mates anyway.

When they take the seats out after January think more will do that with the extra space even PSG alone was loads in the South stand definitely more than the allocation Especially in 114/115

Still find it crazy we kick away from our most vocal support in the second half and let the away team kick toward there fans in the second half! Shooting toward the south stand in the second half would make a big difference in my opinion

How so?

We haven't done too badly over the last ten years kicking the other way!!!!!!
