Return of Supporters

Irrespective of the Jesus goal - I am totally with you regarding celebrating goals.
The last goal I properly celebrated was Vinny's v Leicester.

But I cant see a time when I stop going.
I would be up for a nationwide temporary boycott to get rid of it though

When Laporte scored I just sat their not a budge because I knew what was coming. Football is so fucking shit lately. Starting to find way better things to do with my time on weekends of late.
Wouldn't blame you not going back, Alot more will have the same view.

I feel exactly the same. No point in celebrating anymore. Even if it’s a one on one you are just waiting for it to be ruled out for something which happened in the build up. Also yes found other things to do.

nope ?
it stops the covid-19 virus from killing you ? covid-19 will be here forever and we have to live with it
then it becomes a weaker virus and becomes just another flu type of virus
 
All seems a bit farcical and as stated gives the wrong message at a time when we're pretty much approaching a tipping point.
Not sure it would even be cost effective for a lot of clubs certainly the ones with bigger grounds to open up for a limited number of people with all the extra safety measures they will need to deply.
Be interesting also to see what happens when a club is in Tier 1 and sells 4000 tickets only to be moved into tier 2 before the game is played so 2000 then can't attend. Who then decides who can and can't go?

People are going to divide opinion on the Jesus goal, Personally I thought the goal should of stood, I thought it hit the top of his arm (Which means the goal should of been given under new rules) then again the officials don't seem to know what the rules are. If it goes to VAR and they can't decide if it hit his arm or not then surely the goal should stand if it's that close of a decision. As I said it's one that will divide opinion. Moral of the story really is VAR is stopping fans from the whole point of the game which is celebrating a goal. Shouod be one of the best feelings in the world, Scoring a goal now is like shooting blanks.

Who knows where it hit - it looked like top of arm to me but wasn't clear. What was VERY clear was 24 hours later in the 2nd minute of the game the ball hit a Liverpool player in the box for what should have been a pen. Replays even showed the arm moving TOWARDS the ball and then the camera's comically showed the player distraught as soon as it 'went' to VAR as he (thought) he knew what was coming. Of course, despite that, no penalty was given

My grape about gabby,I no the position were he was,but only one camera angle was shown,on my stream anyway.and I couldn't tell is was to fuzzy
 
Rags and Dippers in stadiums would celebrate VAR as its making its "decisions" because they know the "resulting decision" goes their way.
No way will i be going back while football is this corrupt.
The FA are taking the piss out of all the other fans of clubs who don't follow the Yank Twins.
They have used the last 2 years as an experiment to see if it works helping the Twins out by gaining points,decisions and headlines for them.
Result...a Eureka moment for them, so the format is here for the long term unfortunately.
Just cheating corrupt cunts who have ruined the once beautiful game.
Now excuse me im just off to kick Fuck out of my Dermot Gallagher effigy

Doubt very much you'll even have the option. Pretty sure all food/drink will be banned. Be straight to your seat with a pair of courtesy binoculars so you can see the next fan along from you, putting your hand up for permission to go to the toilet and an instant lifetime ban should you even attempt to shout or sing whilst inside.
 
Having watched the Coronavirus briefing tonight it seems pretty clear to me that we won't see supporters back at the Etihad in any great number this season, if any at all. It seems that the best we can expect for a vaccine roll out is by Easter for the vulnerable group & NHS staff plus other front line workers. Mass vaccination is going to be further down the line. In addition of course Manchester has got to get itself out of Tier 3 which is going to be a long haul by the look of things.
Like many fellow Blues on here I resigned myself to writing off this season long ago. Now hoping that the Covid nightmare will be behind us by next summer so we can all get back to the stadium without restrictions.
Looking on the bright side, the way City have been performing this season it's been a good time to be prevented from going - watching on telly has been bad enough, but nowhere near as expensive !
