The crowd makes all the difference , hence the term "home advantage" you cant compare our supporters to teams like the scum or arsenal , they have had it so good for years , they go to matches to be entertained. Most city supporters over the last 30 odd years have had a streak of sado/masochism , , (when you have been to fulham away and been 5-0 down at half time in the 2nd division) , it cant be anything else
So therefore,at the point of repeating myself,the 30,000 who were left in the ground for the 94 minutes helped the team get a result due to their continued vociferous display.

Don`t think that LFC or Sunderland would believe that,after a fair few defeats at home last season.
As I said I aint heard any player complain about early leavers and our home record over last season and to-date this season,has been excellent,so its obviously a myth that the early leavers make a difference to our home results.

Well that appears to be quite a statement ....by your standards.
Methinks we should provide you with a Braille touch screen,which should enable you to read what I have typed and not what you think I typed. ;)
so you think if you asked a player if he preferred 45,000 people shouting for the team or 30,000 he would say he didnt care? if you asked him if he preferred to play in front of a home crowd or an away crowd he wouldnt care?
your arguement that teams have a sticky patch at home or may win a game with a half empty stadium means that fans or location dont matter is bizarre
trautmen played well in a cup final with a broken neck
"bert hope your neck heals soon"
"dont care fella played played okay with it broken, makes no difference to me"
weirdo
Not half as weird as those comments.
Quite right it didn`t matter to Bert.What the fuck its got to do with Bert is beyond me !!
The argument is that at the end of the day City got a result irrespective of how many were in the stadium at the time of the goal.
Whats so difficult to understand about that statement ?
