'Phone torches last night....

I've got an idea... we could bother turning up to games, keep our phones in our pockets, and stand up and sing for 90 minutes.
 
100,000 doing it at a concert would look impressive but that's where it ends!
 
As fans these days some are way way out of date and no wonder we stand still.... Let's NOT do the Poznan, torches are crap... It's all about getting involved, doing something to stand out, this us why the euro clubs are way ahead. . We can't keep looking over our shoulder to see if we are being mocked.

Hard to believe some people thought the torches look crap, each to their own

Neither of those things you mentioned 'stand out' when they are just ripped off from another club we've played a short time before. Hardly the mancunian way is it?

Most of the stuff that happens at the football is copied from somewhere. Did you complain when we copied the Poznan from Poznan fans, who themselves copied it from another club? Or when we incorporated "Singing aye aye yippee yippee aye" into "If you hate Man United clap your hands" after hearing Sunderland fans sing it at Roker Park in 1990? Or do you just have an issue with this because it's Celtic?

Can you not read? Let me spell it out - I'm fully aware that we'd been singing "If you hate Man United clap your hands" but we didn't add "Singing aye aye yippee aye" into that song until the week after we drew 1-1 at Roker Park in November 1990 where we'd heard the Sunderland fans singing it in their "If you hate Newcastle" version. When it started up on the Kippax the following week, you knew exactly who had been at Sunderland the week before.

Even bluemoon is debatable, ok so we can mention a small handful of things that are original, but it doesnt give us enough to go at. If we only sang songs or did things only seen at the etihad we wouldn't move at games.

We live in a day an age where people would rather look over their shoulder and mock what others do rather than look at themselves. This means what ever fans do these days is copied, mocked etc.
 
Stop anything that gets in the way of sitting arms folded and slagging off every misplaced pass...

City fans have aged into grumpy old men.

I can read but it doesn't mean I always read what's written. Not to worry you'll get over it pal
