Are you James Brown in disguise?

Lech is a lager. God; I thought everyone knew that.

Have to say, it looks a little bit suspicious and a little too stage managed to me.

On the flip side, how many fucking flares did they light at 6 minutes in, and indoors too - if it is genuine, they really are total fucking mentalists.

I counted 19. Yes, I was bored.

Depends what you mean by stage managed - when they were at the CoMS, they had some nut with a loudhaler orchestrating the crowd, that's tantamount to the same thing, it could be argued.

And I don't see anything wrong with 'the whole town running like f*ck' to turn up and represent their team/town - the fact that it's at a lower level of footy hardly makes it less worthy does it? Quite the opposite imo.

I'm pretty cynical myself, but can't really see anything to criticise with a well orchestrated display of support for a local club that attracts attention to the town, club, and fans by getting it on Youtube or whatever.

Or do you just resent them as well-organised, media savvy, passionate wankers?

Certainly no criticism from me, I know of a number of clubs who have orchestrated support and who put on fantastic displays of support for their team - certainly kicks the arse of the Atmosphere Action Group haha.

My cynicism was that its at an under 12s 5-aside game, and it appears that it was entirely stage managed for the cameras (one-upmanship between rival firms) - for example when the flares go off, the camera is seamlessly positioned at the opposite end of the arena for the best view, and then moves back to its original position towards the end.

Fair fucks to em though, it looked mint

The fact that it's being filmed by someone 'in on it', rather than an amazed/surprised onlooker doesn't detract from teh spectacle imo. If youre saying that they wouldn't be doing it if there weren't any cameras there then i guess I see your point.

THinking about it though, I'm not sure if it's the best atmosphere to try and coach under 12's either! I bet some of the mums and dads of the players weren't too happy to see their 'little darlings' in there, specially the english ones coming from a country that's not used to such scenes and that's obsessed with health and safety!

Anyway like you say, it's still mint.

Wow! That is pretty amazing! Cant wait!

We need to bring this stuff into the Premier League! I love all the bouncing up and down and synchronized movements. "Lets all do the Poznan" is getting better every week but I wish we had City songs that accompanied bouncing up and down and make some stuff up of our own! It looks class. The premier League needs this, the crowds have got way too boring! Lets be the spark! CTID!

Once we get past Salonika we should/may meet Basiktas and their fans and atmosphere is stage managed within the stadium but it is done for vocal support reasons and not just to get on Youtube.
