I'm Normally Upbeat And Positive, But.......

The pre match bluemoon is just hilarious now tbh, feel sorry for the guy doing as he must realise how cheesy it is with no one singing along or applauding it. Thought the display by the 1894 group was superb though, hopefully see it on a larger scale against Barce.

I do miss the old announcer (Alan Keegan?) and Right here right now. The announcer and intro music at present is just dreadful.

Alan Keegan is a rag and has done the announcing job at Old Trafford for 10+ years.

Isn't Keegan the announcer at OT these days?

Bring back Vince Miller!!!

I could have strangled the announcer when he mentioned "fortress Etihad" with 10 minutes still on the clock - talk about tempting fate! Thankfully got away with it but could have gone all so horribly wrong

Every single time this happens, the away fans whistle then sing very loudly over the performer, while City fans look on with stone-faced or slightly uneasy expressions.

End the experiment and just play the normal version before kickoff, please!

Once again we had Tom Jones Junior belting out Blue Moon on the pitch before the game. :-?

Then we had Mr Attendance announcer telling everyone, including the Palace Players, that our wonderful support makes the *Etihad a fortress*, while the score is still 1-0 and there's over 10 minutes to go until the final whistle.

Honest to God!

Can somebody in charge at City not take a deep breath, take 5 minutes out, and think about these things before implementing them.

I appreciate the matchday experience is up there with the new training academy, stadium expansion, etc, but it really is getting OTT now.

Apologies for the rant.

I'm off for a beer. :-)

I hate this overindulgence in the song BlueMoon. I don't know anybody who wants some random singing it on the pitch; no fucker joins in, nobody gives a fuck.

All they have to do is play Hey Jude before the game...


Job done..

I guess having won 13 out of 14 games at home this season and having scored 58 goals in the process, we all need something to complain about. Personally, I think my hot chocolate was too hot and there isn't enough sauce dispensed in one dollop from the dispensers and I don't like the old codger in front of me because he cheers for too long after each goal. Sort it out City!

Alan Keegan is a rag who deserted us when we were at Maine Road to go to Sold Trafford I know the guy who I think you mean, don't know his name but he was replaced by Hugh Ferris and the guy who reads the team lineups in the tunnel he does the announcements from a box somewhere
