Etihad Atmosphere - 2022/23

Yep less is definitely more.

I’ll tell you what still irks me to this day - the Zaba situation.

We had a perfectly good song which everyone knew the words to and joined in with Doo doo doo Pablo Zabaleta and then all the daft selfie video kids invented this silly overlong over wordy sweary Zaba chant which even name checks rags and which most of the ground still don’t know the words to.

It was an absolute crime that at his farewell game we just got a muffled version of that nonsense from the singing end rather than the whole ground belting out the original and better chant
Are you serious? That is by far one of our best songs. I really wonder how some fans find any enjoyment in going to games
 
I join in with both whenever I hear either of them! We shouldn't change what we sing cuz some people can't be arsed joining in just join in with whatever is being sung and stop being picky!
The fun is when the whole ground or stand joins in and you get goosebumps. That can happen with doo doo doo Pablo Zabaletra or nah nah nah nah nah City but can't happen with the songs with loads of lyrics, Those songs are better saved for the concourse or the train.
Our job on Weds is purely and simply to give the lads that bit sxtra they might need. And ghat vomex from dvrryond joining in to make a wall of noise.
 
Almost as bad as our 'Haaland, Haaland' one. There's some great efforts on his thread and I'm particularly fond of the Billy Ocean one. Hopefully one of those gets a bit of momentum.

Not a massive fan of Blue Moon to be honest as it's too short to be an anthem and a bit monotonous. It can sound impressive at first but after repeating the same verse a few times it soon peters out.

Agree though, our chants are usually a lot more creative than most. I'm particularly partial to the ones that incorporate a bit of humour like the Balotelli one.

Some decent ones introduced this season like 'follow', 'best defence in Europe' and 'everywhere' by the Mac. Sound great at away games and beginning to get traction at home.
Our anthem should be The Hollies ‘He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother’.

It’s a better song than ‘Blue Moon’. Keep ‘Blue Moon’ by all means but I think ‘HAH,HMB’ is a much much better song by a Manchester band with City-fan members.



If we have to have some 5to3 karaoke, it should be that^!

Interesting choice mate. Could grow on me that.

I just fear we'd murder a great song by singing it quicker than a Scooter re-mix.
 
We need to let Rudiger know what we think of him on Wednesday night. Every time he gets near the ball he should be roundly booed.

1. He got away with near murder on KDB in the Champions League Final
2. He’d do it again on Haaland without hesitation on Wednesday
3. We need to make the atmosphere as hostile and unwelcoming as possible for them

I just hope an early Real Madrid goal, if they do score, doesn’t kill the atmosphere dead. It’s hard to get the atmosphere going again when the nerves and concern starts to kick in.
