Etihad Atmosphere - 2022/23

[borassic]

Has Pep ever come over to the South Stand like that ? I don't think so, incredible scenes, that's why we love football and STAY UNTIL THE END !!

He was giving it to all the players to do a lap

 

[Aguero_Element]

Great game, great crowd

 

[franksinatra]

South stand were too busy clap clap clapping with their Follow follow follow from the first minute but luckily the rest of the ground did the business ;-)

Yes, another tongue twister unlikely to ever take off properly at home matches.

Bollocks. About 3 times we tried to start 'best team in the land and all the world's but it didn't spread, more to do with the accoustics than the choice of song

They wont all spread, but the right chant to start regardless.

Acoustics, bollocks , many a away following have taken over that stand in the cup and filled the stadium with noise , Acoustics didn't impact them .

Even the under-the-thumb Strictly Come Dancing fanboys stayed today.
Bloody great scenes at the end of the game. Pep was fucking buzzing!

Atmosphere was so much better second half with all the proper City songs coming out.

Blue Moon
Oh City We Love You
City, From Maine Road
Ark Now Hear The City Sing
City, City, TBTITLAATW
We’re Not Really Here
Come on City
Ci-ty Ci-ty Ci-ty Ci-ty
We’re Man City, We Fight Til The End
…all got sung in the second half.

Miles better atmosphere around the ground second half when we sung our club name! So much better when they’re the songs sung.

There are those plus about a dozen more we could sing that the stadium joins in with. And if we could make up some new proper City chants (not player ones, not United/Liverpool ones) we can add to the back catalogue.

This is the best thing I've read on here today!

 

[Jesus2020]

My mate (who doesn't support us) was at the CL game, he collects grounds and he'd said he was disappointed with how early people were leaving at half time and full time (75-80 mins is ridiculous tbf) but I told him we're slightly spilt thesedays but on our day the atmosphere can be amazing.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Imagine missing that ending to get home slightly earlier. Hope the early leavers enjoyed that.

 

[Ohrodneyrodney]

Great atmosphere again today, seems more and more people determined to make it happen. Take responsibility for yourself, join in, sing your lungs out and hey ho, there's the atmosphere.

 

[Gray]

Haaland coming on got everybody going, you just feel something will happen with that big loveable Norwegian.

Can't help but liking the viking.

Nothing to do with acoustics. Away fans regularly sing and are heard from the other side of the stadium

Ss3 seem to start the songs and the rest of the ground join in regularly. As shown today - sing the classic city songs and the ground follow

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Southern visitors seem obsessed with finding the library.
Grown people singing that and finding it amusing. Beggars belief.

Some weird takes from Fulham today. Singing that just after we had chanted. And at least 5 minutes after they had chanted owt themselves.

Odd.

 

[jrb]

Didn’t go today as my left knee is f*cked.
Didn’t watch the live match On TV.
Read this thread.
Great! Well done everyone, the fans, Pep and the players.
Watched Match Of The Day tonight.
Bar the limited highlights, it sounded like a Morgue.
Just shows how the media skew what really happened.

 

[Mike N]

Was sat in the North Stand today, usually sit in SS3, impressive support from the South Stand. Could hear it clearly from the other end of the ground.

 

[SWP's back]

Sounded great yesterday on the tv

 

[BongoBlue]

Watching on TV here in the US and I thought that the support was fantastic. Even the annoying commentators were going on about the "place erupting" when Haaland scored the disallowed goal. It could be heard loud and clear, especially the "Come on City," and "Blue Moon" when we were still chasing the winner.

 

[Dodgy Gangster]

Follow follow was a lot louder today than in previous home games and astonishingly it even got going in 201. The great atmosphere today pretty much disproves the oft stated theory on here that singing the wrong clapalong songs at the start of a game stifles the atmosphere for the full 90 mins.

It doesn't ..... as has always been the case, events on the pitch dictate the nature of the atmosphere
