How Lucky We Are, Especially Fans That Can Attend Matches

Good post.About time we took on pgmol about the way we are reffed.

It is time but the club won’t say a word, it’s the way they work and it really annoys me ..

Please never boo. I was so pissed off at halftime but could not believe people booing. Wtf!

Not City fans in my eyes given the success we have been served in recent years!

If they weren't City fans who were they?

Wrong.....it was from the Tunnel Club.

They nipped orff early and missed spuds goals !!

Mate of mine (not Tunnel Club member but sits close to it) actually did this on Thursday. Nipped out for a piss just before half-time and couldn't believe the scoreboard when he got back.

If it happened about 35 miles west of here the answer would be Chelsea fans.

Another who was at the match (EL3) and didn't hear booing. If anything there was a collective groan, some swearing but also a sense of anticipation for the second half knowing that it was time for Pep to work his magic. We have one moaner near us - hates the way Pep wants football to played, he would much prefer to see long balls launched up for Niall - like us he has been in those seats there since the new Kippax was built, so you just get used to the tirade when they start passing it around the defenders and he was in his element at 0-2. But hey ho - we all react differently.

But as the original post - yes we are lucky to be able to watch this football and this team. But I'm also glad that I witnessed the years that went before it, the joys of promotions and beating off relegation (when we managed it). I look at teams like Everton who have never experienced that and feel sorry for them - it's why they are getting so stressed out at the possibility of relegation - in truth it wouldn't do them any harm and they can discover the joy of visiting places they have rarely been and what it feels like to be the "big" team in their league - a whole different experience.

They weren't booing the City team, just the disgraceful officiating and snide tactics of the spuds team.

It was a smattering of frustrated boos from a small minority of fans which the media have hyped up in their usual dishonest way.

This. The ref was out of depth and like a rabbit in headlights. People who think City are shit should have been there in the 80s 90s when at best we had a few good players and quite a lot of shite. Manager changes all the time and trying for the 40 points to avoid another trip down the league. League Cup win being are only hope of a trophy.

I was there, I really couldn't tell you what they were booing, it could have been a bit of both.

I'm in 109 no booing just "Harry show us your teeth". Even said to Geoff behind me that it's crazy how frustrated and over the top our fans can get at times. Even if we had lost we would still have been second in the league (I spent well over 30 years pre takeover praying to see us even threaten to get that high) did hear boos though near the dugout and we all said that has to be for the ref.
