the atmosphere for those sorts of games is always shit unless we score then its ok for 5 mins then it goes quiet unless something happens. when we scored our second yesterday we still had people around where i sit singing 'we'll score when we want' i fucking hate that song, it was aimed at the rags last season and we seemed to have sung it after every goal last season (yes i did sing it too last season) but it nearly bit us in the arse! its a fucking embarrassing chant to sing, shows some peoples arrogance and i had to say something yesterday to people around me and the majority of people agreed.

I think the fact QPR tunred up with 3 blokes, 2 kids and a cat probably didn't help ignite the bubbling cauldron that is the Etihad.
Would one of our 'silent' supporters please come on and say why they dont make any noise at all at a game.
Some of the guys sat right behind the goal in the North Stand can speak cause they say hello when they arrive. After that, it's nothing.
You know who you are.

I reckon ten of the PL teams could have put on tougher opposition than QPR did. I think there was a predictability about City's performance today and it translated onto the terraces. We need to get it together for the visits of Real, Dortmund and Ajax.

We get slagged off for not singing, we get slagged for singing certain songs.
Can somebody post when we have to sing and the songs we are allowed to sing

the atmosphere in our end was great at times, nothing wrong considering their fans were wank.
From a personal point of view.
I think the OP was at a different game, or he sits in another part of the stadium away from the singning sections?(nothing against the OP)
Blocks 111/110/109 were signing non-stop for the first half an hour of the match. The longer it went on the more I thought we were going to replicate our European cousins of singning non-stop for the whole of the first half.(sadly it didn't happen)
After 30 minutes of non-stop singning and different songs the singning did die out until half time. The second half was much quieter overall, but there was still quite a fair amount of singning and banter.
Raggish?
Just as a comparison. I watched United play Fulham last week on the TV. 76,000 fans. It was like a f***ing morgue. You could hear a pin drop. Nothing apart from a few chants of U-N-I-T-E-D, United, and another couple of half hearted songs.(and we complain about our atmosphere)
Nothing against the OP and others who moan about the atmosphere, but overall the atmopshere at city has improved enormously over the last few seasons. So have the variety of chants.
We've all been through this topic/discussion before. It comes up every season. The shallow stands don't help. The high roof doesn't help. Having both our singning sections split by the away fans doesn't help. Playing teams like OPR who only bring a few hundreds fans doesn't help.(compare that to Arsenal in 2 weeks time with a full away end)
I've stated this on numerous occasions. Our home support/atmosphere isn't the best in the PL, but it certainly isn't the worst either. In my opinion it's in the top 5, behind......
However, what I would like to see, and it still isn't happening, is more chants, banter, etc, involving blocks 111/110/1o9 ad the SS. Across Europe you see grounds with two singning sections/ends chanting to each other. It's briliant. It's just a shame it's not happening at City still.
