Etihad Atmosphere - 2022/23

[lloydie]

You are so right; Holyhead is fucking grim.

Looks a proper shithole but went for a meal Sat night for Mrs L's birthday at the Harbourfront bistro which was very good, had the Sea Bass :)
One other good pub, can't remember name, and Breakwater park & Penrhos are both great coastal walks. People I've encountered have been exceptionally friendly too.

One small thing which was odd yesterday was the coach turned up with no windows. You couldn't see any players at all. Ideal for Liverpool away but for a title celebration with our own fans?

It's AFTER Liverpool away that our coach has no windows...

I haven't been since the late seventies when I lived there briefly and have no desire to return except maybe curiosity and a bit of nostalgia. Funnily enough my now retired doctor used to go on holiday to Trearddur Bay every year. I think they regenerated the harbour area. One thing I found amusing is one of the newsagents was owned by a family from Manchester appropriately called the Nutters. Their son Baz I drank with a few times and he lived up to the name lol.

Serious question.

Did Chelsea fans sing a single song?

I was in SSL1 and I honestly don’t think I heard them sing a single song.

If that’s true, it must be a first at the Etihad.

Think I might've heard one 'Chelsea Chelsea' but they were very quiet. Normally they're reasonably loud, in my opinion, but their crap season looks like it's drained the life out of them.

Yep, no plastic Champions League trophies being waved about,and no chants of
"Champions of Europe, you'll never sing that".
This season has brought them back to Earth with a vengeance. The Cockney Rejects !!!

Once after they won a corner in 2nd half! Bizarre

I mentioned it in the belated match thread. I couldn't understand why they bothered coming to just sit there. There are plenty of shit teams, but the fans usually make an effort. They didn't even bother having a go at their team who would have deserved it for a pathetic display.

Bizarre and pathetic display from both their team and fans

Did I miss anything...?

We've never needed a loud mouthed twat shouting into the tannoy to create an atmosphere before, and we don't need it now!
