Etihad Atmosphere - 2021/22

[Deleted member 77198]

I just couldn’t be arsed with the effort of being an ultra. Looks like a lot of hard work, all that flag waving and jumping up and down.

I love getting behind the team but lets be honest, there’s some games where you just want a Bovril and a sit down.

For a lot of lads, it’s just their time away from the missus and kids.

I thought yesterday was good...

The bus welcoming did set the tone early. Loads of people knocking about the ground very early. We made it hostile for Liverpool fans, who must have been quite glad about the lock-in after the match.

The stadium was (almost) full when the players came onto the pitch. Good participation in songs from the whole stadium (not just the South Stand). Booing and whistling Liverpool constantly. Cheering when we won possession. Pyro in the home stands (that is something we're the best at in England. No other club compares to us with that) and the scenes when we scored!

Agreed - I don't think a good atmosphere necessarily requires chanting every 5 seconds, the key part is that the crowd gets behind the team and I'd say we did that

Agree. Lot of police around yesterday too so don’t there there was much chance of bother after the game. To be honest I think most fans would have been too drained after watching that game to have a scrap! I was goosed all night and still found it hard to sleep 6 hrs after it finished.

TAG, helmets on their sides, were lined up along the road that leads up to the main gate.

Apparently the Scousers were kept in for 25-30 minutes, which is unusual these days.

Klopp came out and went over to them long after the stadium was empty .

Yeah. 5 vans lined up outside the stadium too. Maybe they expected ticketless fans or something. Seemed to be a game without much incident in the stands/outside. Loads of half and half scarves on view yesterday. Didn’t see many dippers jump up though. Few in the corporates but not many.

Thought it was excellent today?

Think that’s just how low our standards have fallen. Not alone obviously as most grounds are complete shite too. Was good that we got a few songs going around the ground after the goals though

Much improved today mate. We need to try and build on that against Watford.

Btw some of the aways this season have well overrated. For example, Newcastle away was bang average but I thought it was pretty good for a hone game tonight.

Seemed fairly low numbers tonight. Think a lot are away and Brighton did not bring many. Will be rocking this time next week.
