Especially for..probably the first 15minutes and right before the kickoff as well it sounded terrific on TV!
You guys out there made me shiver.

But yes tell us how was it really like yesterday?

Started pretty good but tailed off as usual. I thought that rendition of Blue Moon early 2nd half was pretty impressive ie. the whole ground involved for a change. 47,370? Is that our highest ever at Eastlands?

It was good. Not amazing but the crowd were very supportive last night. No boos very few negative comments and plenty applauding at the end. Overall very positive, I'm glad some of the posters on here weren't there last night to drag it down.

felt great in the south stand - the group of guys round me didn't stop singing all match - i'm hoarse this morning

shame it couldn't of been like that all season.

had a few 'man hugs' and firm handshakes at the end as well as getting split up with the guys round me due to the family stand eviction and had a good few laughs with them this season.

Come on SS a large, concentrated away support nearly always outsings any spread out home support these days. So what? Why looking to run us down at all opportunity?

Even in CB level 3 there was an atmosphere.

Shame some numpties couldn't resist having a go at a Spud kid who sat at the back.
Top marks to the guys who protected him whilst the Stewards came to take him out, but f*ck the neanderthals who couldn't resist an easy punch as he was escorted down the steps.
Fine, he shouldn't have been in there and deserved some hostility, but the guy was young, on his own, and pretty well shitting himself on the way out. Then some 20st amoeba made his way through about 25 seats on his row to have an easy swipe at him. 20 st of sh*t. you should be ashamed of yourself.

They pretty much sung through most of the game.



Were you at the ground or watch on TV? I have heard MUCH louder away fans this season, they most certainly did not out do us, apart from on the pitch

At the ground, didnt say they were the loudest, was saying they sung more than us.


Spot on, for long periods of the second half there was no city singing at all, just people shouting abuse at the ref.

Brilliant atmosphere last night. Not quite 'Hamburg' proportions, but great all the same.

A chorous of Bluemoon just after they scored was a nice touch.

I cant remember such nervousness in a crowd before kick-off and that translated into some patches of quiet even where i am in the SOuth Stand. For once we were not underdogs and were nearly there we are going to ahve to get used to it
It may be my last year as a season ticket holder as it just doesn't seem the same with so few English and local players (but I said that last year)

Was good in bits. Some old fella actually told me to stop singing in the bell stand!!!

Pissed me off that we didnt sing ONCE after they scored, as that is just not city. And everyone around me left.

We must of been doing a fair bit of singing as I didn't hear any of those apart from their 'marching in' song & then it was taken over by City. I could see them clapping at times but all I could hear were City songs. I suppose they were singing after they scored if that's what's being referred to? I'd gone into 'ignore mode' by then though, it's like self hypnosis, so I heard nothing. Had many years of practice & have perfected it.
