Took my girlfriend to her first City game yesterday, she absolutely loved it. Prior to that she'd only ever been to a few Arsenal games; couldn't believe the contrast between their fans and ours. During the second half she turned and asked me "Do you all ever stop singing?". Great noise, up there with Palace away in April which for me was our best away atmosphere last season.
Villa fans kicking off were pathetic. Doesn't tarnish my general opinion of them as I've always found the Villa support to be a good bunch, good ground to visit, but watching them throwing their toys out the pram after 80 minutes of goading and "Where were you when..." chants was pure schadenfreude.
