Stand leaders

[BlueBearBoots]

Love that video "I'm no cynic" but big crowds of girls TOGETHER having fun because they want to be there not just going along with their bf or hubby. No harassed mums trying to stop their kids being bored. Spouse it comes down to simple fact that people should only go to the game if they are passionate about it!!

I think it's actually a decent idea. At least someone is trying to do something with the atmosphere. Much rather that than the lazy bastards who can't be arsed cheering the team on.

Or the people that don't feel the need to act a certain way just because it's the way you like to act.

So what's the issue with someone trying to do something if you disagree with it?

Im looking forward to showsec throwing out the stand leaders for persistent standing along with the obligatory three game ban. So we will not have to tolerate them every match.

I don't have a problem with someone singing if they want to. I have a problem with someone telling me how I should act.

If a wannabee hall monitor just stands up and sings then fair enough. The second he tries to tell me what to do he'll be told to mind his own fucking business.

Will the stand leader in block 109 have to keep sitting down when he is told to?

Stand Leaders. What age group did they canvas for this?

Instead of silly surveys just read the forums if you want an objective view. oh yeah tailor the merchandise emails as well.

A quick heads up for atmosphere City 109, 110 &111 want to stand...then the singing will be louder and stop your employees in yellow coats beating up old men. REGULARLY.

I imagine it won't be like that. I assume the idea is for someone to get more vocal parts of the ground going like in Germany and Greece. I think the majority of the ground isn't atmosphere orientated so it wouldn't work on the third tier of the Colin bell but would be ok in the south stand and parts of the east stand.

How did we let it get to this?

Because we are one of the worst sets of fans for home atmosphere in the country - and that's saying something because nearly every single ground in England is rubbish for atmosphere.

Our vocal sections stand with their arms folded the rest of the ground sits on their hands. Even big games don't see an atmosphere anymore, United and Spurs outsung us and we were hammering both of them. People have even started whispering to each other during the game near me because it's so quiet they don't want everyone around them hearing what they're saying.

We've got a joke of a set-up at the stadium as well. We couldn't make it harder for ourselves to create a good atmosphere if we tried.

The last good atmosphere at the Etihad was the 1-0 (Kompany header) derby.<br /><br />-- Wed Dec 04, 2013 8:05 pm --<br /><br />

They'd get laughed out of the ground if they were at it in the East and South Stands.

It could go well and work, or it could go badly and look very very silly. Some European teams have done it to good effect against us.
