I didn't turn up for the following reasons:
  1. Can not stand UEFA or their money grabbing competition.
  2. The public transport (Metrolink) is appaling at the best of times and worse for night matches.
  3. Kick-off time far too late, all because of the great God television.
So there it is, but I will be there on Saturday for a competition with far greater appeal and on the whole a better standard of football.

Turn off your tv when we play in this competition if you have no interest in it. UEFA money grabbing? Take a look at premier league games they’re really cheap.

We scored 16 goals in the last three games here. I'd like more people to come on Saturday. We will be tired. Southampton are so dangerous. I invite all our people to come 3pm to watch our game."

Sorry PC I don’t see anything too awful about this. He sounds like he just wants a little more passion from the crowd. Trouble is its the media and rival fans that pick up on it too not just us. I agree he shouldn’t have said it full stop.

It's not the first time he's said such and as you say he shouldn't have said it. All its done is give all the usual suspects another stick to beat us with

For both sides
All our defenders were all over the place for their three goals, and what was Ederson doing for their third
That was dreadful positioning

And four of our goals were down to terrible defending
Two players stood ball watching as Ake ran in
A calamitous back header
A defender who leads for a header with an arm
And Grealish 's goal, as well taken as it was, the defender doesn't close him down wide allowing him to saunter into the penalty area, then shows him onto his strongest foot!

Anyway, we'll take it and move on

Don't forget the near misses ie the disallowed goals by fine margins too
 
Like many others, the manager's comments have touched a raw nerve just as I was started to warm to the new season. They've overshadowed what was otherwise a really enjoyable night and entertaining game. They've made me less motivated to give my support than before when the club itself doesn't seem to appreciate the effort made. For reasons that have been well documented on here, relations between the club and fans were poor even before these ill-judged comments were made. Whatever the intention was, it was obvious how the comments would be construed by an already hostile media who, predictably, have not passed up another great opportunity to attack us. Unwittingly or not, the comments have only served to instigate a full scale pile on by the MSM towards us fans including those like me who turned up the other night. As someone with a significant emotional connection to the club, the criticism hurts even from the rent-a-gobs on Talksport, the yellow pens on MUEN and seat counters on "football twitter." Irrational as it may seem, I do get very defensive when they insult the history of the club or the fanbase as it's a big part of my personal identity, more than it perhaps should be. The club has taken me to the depths of despair and elation more than most of these idiots could ever dream about. I'll be a fan long after he or any of the current players have departed. I'll be watching today's press conference with interest. He has a lot of grovelling to do to repair things. Sure, I'll be there tomorrow but I won't be singing his name and I hope others don't either.

I suppose we will all have to put up with "Empty seats" Jokes fueled by our own manager.

Sure......... it is being took out of context.

Lets be honest though It is not like he hasn't done this all before.

Not making excuses,but there were many reasons for last night attendance.

The main one being people are confused these days, about whether they are,or not allowed in Vaccinated,or un-vaccinated.Or if they need to be tested for Covid before entrance.Then you have the mither just trying to simply buy tickets for games theses days.Many think it is too much fucking about.I have spoke to 3 People today who wanted tickets but didn't have a clue how to go about it.

Going to a game has become as daunting as booking a holiday abroad because of Covid.

Pep should concentrate on what he does best instead of giving ammunition to those that hate us.
 
Just a thought but maybe someone should respond to pep and tell him that fans are saving up for the quarter final game, when we throw it away against a far lesser team...
 
I'm still pissed off with Pep after those comments, It shouldn't matter if it was 500 or 50,000 in the ground Wednesday night he should of kept his mouth shut. Their is a pandemic going on, Thousands of people have lost there jobs because of it, Yet we have a multi millionaire telling us how we should spend our money!

I didn't go because on Wednesday because I simply couldn't afford to because I'm keeping my money to bring my little lad the game on Saturday and I'm sure it's the same for many others having to chose what game to keep your money for as we don't have the luxury to go to every single game.
How about that prick Pep pays for fans that can't go if he's that bothered about it! He should of thanked the fans that turned up on Wednesday, Not have a pop at the ones that didn't!

Fucking twat.

It's what City fans have done down the years. We appear to have to have a scapegoat to abuse, and it's not one of our finest traits.

It's not too long ago that a section of our support wanted Gundog sold, turns out he's pretty good after all.
I wish people would get behind players rather than on their backs.
The unwarranted focus on Ake takes the attention away from Raz I suppose, particularly now Mendy is no longer available...

We went all the way to the final last year, I didn’t watch a single match.

I find that strange. Well good whatever floats your boat I suppose. Why don’t you stop commenting on anything to do with uefa and city. You seem a man of principle
 
On reflection I think Pep may have actually been trying to rally the fans to be vocal in their support against Soton-and it was somewhat lost in translation. Expect some clarification at the presser.
