Just a thought.
Why don’t Talk Shite, etc mention West Ham, Spurs, OK it’s Wembley, Arsenal, and most other PL clubs when it comes to empty seats?
Most clubs suffer from this fan made up and obsessive empty seat subject/banter, yet City seem to be the only club linked with it.
We all know it was started by United fans to beat us with as they had nothing else left to beat us with.
After Sheikh Mansour bought the club, the 34 years went, the ticker banner came down, we beat them in the semi final of the FA Cup, have dominated them for 10 years, the trophies came rolling in, and Pep, the Worlds best Football Manager became City Manager, United fans had nothing left to beat us with.
The narrative has spread throughout football. I can accept fans taking the piss, it’s part and parcel of football banter, but what I don’t get is that radio stations, newspapers, ex-footballers, and football pundits are also wading in en-masse, targeting City, and only City, ruthlessly.
From reading the thread, as I refuse to listen to Talkshite anymore, they have made it an issue, and are targeting City fans directly. Last night Talk Shite should have been discussing the match, the teams performance, how we’re not letting Liverpool walk away with the title, yet all they can do is wind up City fans, ‘get them to call up to defend ourselves over empty seats’ and continue pampering to the listening Rag, Scouse(Liverpool), Cockney masses(Arsenal).
