We were out sung by Fulham. The ticket allocation couldn’t have been right or too many Blues can’t handle squeaky bum time.

Out sung by Fulham? I was there and I thought our support was tremendous as always. Hardly heard Fulham, and I thought their support was pathetic. In terms of City fans joining in the majority absolute were. Our tickets were a 2 and a 1 yesterday so my lads were in a different part of the away section and we all thought our support was brilliant (extremely loud) and Fulham’s abysmal. We’re you there or were you watching on Sly?

Not how it came across on the telly. Especially first half you could only hear city fans apart from just after their goal

Not how it came across inside the ground either pal

For fucks sake. So....where I was sitting in RowSS P5, other than a handful of Blues (some of whom I recognised) I was surrounded by tourists. I was so pissed off, at half time I actually counted how many seats in my direct vicinity were tourists and stopped counting at 38. To make sure I was being fair and not judging anyone unfairly because they were wearing a fucking half and half scarf or didn't know any of the songs, I actually spoke to many of them - and found; a group of Israelis who had purchased tickets through an 'agency' from their hotel concierge, a family from South Korea who had bought the tickets on 'Livefootyonline.com", or something, and five lovely folks from Japan who had paid the most extraordinary money from another online tout to be there.

Now, don't get me wrong, I LOVE the fact we are now attracting support from across the globe and we have a lovely global fan base. God bless them all. BUT who the hell is selling their tickets to these touts to deprive genuine loyal Blues from getting away tickets??

It's appalling, and the Club simply doesn't seem to give a fuck.

It showed Alvarez's goal from where the Fulham keeper was standing, and when it hit the net there were loads of City fans who barely celebrated, wtf. Even on sky when he scored it panned to the City end and two lads on the front row were just looking at each other stood up with omg expressions on their faces, but barely celebrating.
That says to me it was tourist central in the city end yesterday

I’ve said I listed non the radio. They came across as Fulham making a racket.

Anyway, I’m glad I’ve “United” the blue moaners by saying Fulham outsung us is in second half. Tue commentators a said the same btw

Don't look back in anger Noel.

Looks like that lad was asking him ‘ so where did you get your ticket from ‘
Nice picture of Spike also

Give the club the seat numbers. I've done it previously, including when we've sold out the away end but there was a row of empty seats.

No idea what the club do, but if these are "corporate" seats getting resold on the tout market it's a criminal offence (as is even giving away your own ticket).

We were sat with the Fulham fans but towards the City end. Their support didn't out sing City: they hardly sang. Our lot got a bit quiet when it was getting a bit tense, which is fair enough. For a small contingent, I thought our support was very good.

I'm going to watch the TV coverage of the full match shortly so will see if I got this wrong.

I accept your view but the commentators said City were quiet 2nd half and that’s how it came over on the radio. It sounded like Fulham were raising the roof towards the end.

I read one of your posts, the one I responded to. I was there so I can comment on what I heard for 90 mins. The City fans were excellent, the Fulham fans were shite. Don’t give a fuck what the commentators you listened to said, the media are hardly unbalanced to us. Have a read of OB1’s post who was also there and not in the City end

Richard Osman and Hugh Grant on commentary?
