Etihad Atmosphere - 2022/23

Exactly mate, was thinking the same myself. The older fans should be respected and cherished but I'd take exception to somebody grabbing me for standing up. If you've been attending x number of years they'd probably be of the opinion that why should they have to relocate but at least you've given them the option.

It's bad enough not having individuals in their seats for large chunks of the game, people showing little interest when there to those filming everything and not living in the moment. If we start clamping down on those immersed in what's going on and showing emotion then the game is well and truly lost.
Totally agree OG - Champs League you see different faces, younger guys who might be shut out of PL by pricing etc and for whom seeing City is an event. They can't reasonably be expected to know the etiquette of every corner of the ground as in some bits EVERYONE stands regardless, other areas it might be all regulars who don't but if it's not official you'd have to be well tuned in to clock that - and when folk are in the moment they're naturally thinking about what's going on in front, not behind - selfish as that might seem. And everyone has their moments...like the gran who sidled in front of me in the queue for the bar at half-time Tuesday (!) It's all part of what makes a game.
 
Atmosphere slated by this knobhead - in fact he's actually slating English football in general as we don't have capos, drums and choreography in our stadiums, despite the attention grabbing headline to get likes.


I love going to the match but if we ever got that choreographed shite I would think about sacking it.

Man talking about atmosphere when he vlogs at a football match is embarrassing

What an absolute knobhead

His fucking smirk has really wound me up there. He's basically only shown the parts where bayern sing rather than when we sing, before complaining about people recording on their phones whilst literally recording on his phone himself.

And the whole video has such a condescending tone to it, just cause we don't conform to a European ultra style.

Absolutely - I remember a German journalist on some podcast being asked about the amazing atmosphere at Bundesliga games. He said he much preferred the up and down, tension/excitement of English grounds, which was generated by what happened on the pitch, rather than the choreographed chants in Germany - often completely at odds with the rhythm of the game.
I talked to a German fan after one of our games and he loved our atmosphere, saying “it comes in waves” and you can understand that when you hear Germans.

oh 100% just spouting shite to get views just because we don't have choreography or loads of pyros

All German ground atmosphere is false one mind numbing beat throughout the game to the thud of a drum ! No songs about the players of your club or about the opposition ! All carefully coordinated for me it's a pointless noise that is more to promote the fans than to support the club ! Apparently their wonderful fans te selling tickets back to the club in droves for the second leg, plastics or what!
