Most likely. I bet a few of ours joined in.

There was a lot of "FFS" when he stripped off and went to touch line waiting to come on.

I know that they have to play the underdog card but I thought ITV were well over the top with their love-in for SU.

Fuckin embarrassing it was. But then it completely changed second half.

Everyone on here keeps complaining about the BBC, would they all prefer this?

And also, why does everyone's fans boo Jack? What's he done to upset them?

It’s the recent thing of having a pop at an English City player. Started with Sterling, very much a red-top, sad bastard thing.

[sheblue]

Can't argue with that.

[salford city]

Can't argue with that.

Nope. Rested a few key players completely and the rest were not pushed too hard. A good day so far and only one hour or so away from getting home

[Mase]

I thought Mahrez was crap for large parts of yesterday, yet he got a match ball. Good for him.

Im not sure its that recent, beckham used to get booed by all the opposition but i cant remember if thats just because of the sending off versus the argies or not. Im sure rooney went through it too

That's certainly why Beckham was booed, he was seen as being responsible for England's 1998 world cup exit. Before that he was golden bollox, and could do no wrong.
Not sure about Rooney, I don't really remember him getting booed, except by the rag fans themselves, when he said he wanted to leave and the rumour mill was touting a move to City.

Still no idea why Grealish keeps getting it though, unless it's his price tag.

[Mase]

Grealish is booed by opposition fans because fat ugly middle aged men are jealous of how beautiful he is.

As you allude, it used to be an England thing, now it’s aimed at City players. Sad cunts.

Lots of noise in the media about the empty seats, I thought most were at Sheffield end, but not sure, anybody know the real story here.

Sheffield didn't sell out their full allocation and I think we didn't either.

It was the Sheffield end. Michael Brown put a video on of the penalty and their end was dead.

The main culprits are the corporate seats - always full of company free loaders who only go for the F&B and never ever watching the full match.

[salford city]

I wasin top tier behind the dug outs. Opposite me were three blocks of empty City seats

The ones with the banners on? It was two wasn’t it, with one gap that had to be there to separate the fans?

Yes mate and you may be right in me counting the gap as well

[Mase]

Yeah it looks like the third “banner” is actually a gap they needed to separate the fans. There were two City banners on that top tier where Sheff United left there two on the top tier just open with empty seats.
