I know of four people in work and a few mates who just couldn't be arsed going tonight after last night so sacked it off.
They are all local fans who could have easily got there.
If I know that many there's a fair bet that there are shit loads who just fucked it off.

It was important to show what we thought of uefa,but it's played out now ..I agree the point has been made and they got the message... to continue it now years after is just small time. There's a really good vibe about the Champions League happening right now so while spoil it.

To be fair we've had it coming for a while. It's a bit of an insult to the fans that go to every game though. Like people have said tonight was probably a bad example as there were issues with tickets not being available on the day.
As for asking us not to boo the champs league anthem, he hasn't used those exact words, but even so I don't think that is for Pep or anyone else to tell us what to do. Just as we back his on pitch selections maybe he should look into the reasons behind the booing and get behind the fans.
I seem to remember Kompany publicly supporting the fans over it during an interview the other year, which is the way it should be. UEFA have made things difficult at every turn for City, the only way the fans can demonstrate their frustration with them is by booing. Fair enough if some people don't like it or want to join in but a lot of fans feel strongly about it. Pep needs to respect that, even if he disagrees.

The players get so absorbed in the match that I don't think they notice the fans during the match, when our stadium has filled up, but I think they notice all the empty seats from late fans when they first enter the pitch. I've wondered how they feel when they see that. I've also wondered if they think they don't play for a full stadium because of what they notice when they first come on the pitch
I'll be honest.
I'm a season ticket holder and generally don't go to champions league games because of the cost and the traveling mid week. But he's made me feel guilty. Awesome tonight I thought, the best feeling I've had since the beginning of Mancinis reign, something is happening here.

Thing is I don't want to insult the intelligence of our fans but a lot of the average city fans don't really know much about Borussia Moenchengladbach.
I know what you are trying to say but the opposition should not really be a factor. As a fan I am going to see my team play and, right now, it is brilliant to watch them and see the incredible improvement of our team. I just cannot wait to see the next game they play, irrespective of the opposition, and the brilliant entertainment they are now providing.
