Etihad Atmosphere - 2022/23

That Chelsea game was dreadful atmosphere-wise. I suspect tomorrow will be the same.

And it's all to do with the seating location of the away fans.

Other then the odd big game. Having the away fans next to the home fans has made little to no difference to our atmosphere. Countless times where the bottom tier of away fans outsing the south stand

I can now see you meant because of the roof / ss3 which I agree with
 
And barely any songs sung all game, that night.

There were some songs in the first few minutes, some after each goal and a few at the very end but that was pretty much it all night. Long stretches of play where ten minutes went by without a song sung.

The atmosphere was generally the entire stadium being enthralled in the game, being vocal towards every attack with a ‘go on’, every challenge a ‘yyeess!’, every shot with an ‘ooooh’, every Liverpool pass with a ‘boooo!’, every Liverpool miss with an ‘aaaaahhh!’, every Liverpool challenge with a ‘fuck off!’…

We will definitely struggle to get songs going tonight because the set up for Cup games is ridiculously in the away fans’ favour at our ground. But we need the whole ground to be involved in every pass, tackle and shot. Liverpool fans will definitely outsing us because they have the roof but we can still out-noise them if we can get involved in the game.
That is when the best atmosphere is created and its pure, not like the German type atmosphere that I'd created with a conductor at the front of the stand telling them what to sing, they aren't even watching the game. All very false.
 
Can we have an honest, unbiased and constructive discussions about tonight’s home atmosphere.

And the support of 6000 Liverpool fans in SSL3. And if something similar on level 2 or level 3 of the expanded North stand can be created.

I’ll be honest, I didn’t go tonight. My left knee is fucked and I’m resting it so I can go to the Leeds and Everton matches. So my comments which I’ll post tomorrow are watching the match on the TV. (If you’re watching on the TV, you’re a c*nt jrb!)

I was in 115 and heard them about 3 or 4 times in the whole game. Whoever put them in the whole tier 3 wants sacking as that was a disaster waiting to happen, but they were shit overall. Thought we were ok, not great but still decent and far better than them.

I didn't go either but we were comfortably outstanding by the scousers tonight. The Dzeko somg is getting on my nerves - it was bloody 8 years ago.
What's wrong with a City, City City chant that the whole ground can join in?

i was in 239 and heard them a handful of times - the atmosphere in the SS is loads better but didn’t fancy sitting underneath a full top tier of vermin especially since i took my little nephew.

wonder how much CCTV they caught of the tramps with the flare. glad i was on the other side!
 
So much of everyone’s view on the atmosphere is dependant on where they are in the ground.

From 115 I heard them maybe 2/3 times all night. More than usual from top tier though granted as Chelsea for example didn’t hear once.

I can’t remember a time where bottom section of away fans in league have been louder than 115, sat in tier 3 on the sides could well be different.

Whether the sound doesn’t carry from south lower or what the one common factor is it seems impossible to get songs going in other sections.

In all honesty I’ve sort of given up in that regard, from a 115 perspective the atmosphere in our end is generally good and don’t expect much more elsewhere. Atmosphere is always better when away fans next to us though.
