Perverse logic I know, but at 2.0 down I expect to be entertained by us having a go tonight which is why I wouldnt miss it for the world. It has the potential to be Mancini's defining moment - the moment he either steps up to the plate, or the moment he signs his own death warrant and goes out with a whimper.

same here mate - am actually looking forward to the game for the first time in a while. wouldn't miss this.

I'm there with my lad and I'm also bringing my dad, girlfriend and her lad. Not holding out much hope of progressing but we (supporters) need to do our best to help them

You going on the rattler or driving?

I am amazed at the attitude of some City fans.

It seems that some won't be there because we are 2-0 down and don't consider that attemppting to win a European trophy is woeth the bother.

There seems to be a brand new breed of fan these days, who act more like customers than supporters. Turn up for the big games to see what City will give them...Cummon City, entertain me and give me my moneysworth.

I always belived that it was the duty of the supporter to get behind the team and drive them on to greater efforts and success. Cheer the team through the bad times and lift them to perform.

I am with you John - it just blows me away that we can attract more for our home games in div 1 of 1998 than we can in an FA cup or Europa cup game in 2011 - we must be part of an old breed - just cannot understand it.

I thought the earlier comment about the fact that there will be lots of blues watching the game in the pub and spending more than the cost of going is an insight - people have changed - maybe it is the availability of media to provide live coverage - it is not just us many many clubs across Europe have half empty stadiums on a regular basis - I just thought / hoped we were better supported than that

For me the statement about its something the older fans expect is correct.
It does not suprise me one bit that we will have far from a sell out tonight.
In the past when going to the match was the highlight of a lot of our fans week things have changed.
In these days of multimedia when there are numerous ways of watching the match going to the event is way down the list of ways of entertaining yourself.I would bet there are loads of people who watch the match via the internet or some other way.
To get bigger crowds there has to be more than the thought of getting pissed in Mary d's to attract a different crowd.
The big games will get big crowds but to expect people to turn up tonight out of feeling a duty is a prehistoric attitude.
People who think that the media does not do an exceptional job are living in the past.
Atmosphere?Degrees of it and variety's.
Bless TV and all you who go tonite.

To be honest, the traffic's never too bad heading into Manchester for evening kick offs, though heading the other way always looks horrendous. If we weren't already cramming 5 into a Corsa I'd offer you a lift !!

I hope that's your girlfriends?

Im going, getting worried with people claiming it was going to be dead. My theory was it was going to be bloody noise as the hardcore ''core'' of blues will most likely be there. I moved over to 110 for Villa and Reading in the cup. I thought Villa was electric and Reading was fucking dead despite everyone standing up. I have no idea what my observation means......

[Beeks]

Me..nor any of my mates are going..absolutely ridiculous kick off time

How they think people can make it with work/small children to take into account I have no idea

[craigmcfc]

No it's mine Bingo, well ours I guess. Not a hairdresser neither fella

I think a few of us are becoming snobs, basically seeing the Europa has a 2nd class cup. I'd also suggest that if/when we get into the CL certain people will not go in the early rounds because we may not be playing the very best teams, as if they're beneath us.

Personally, I find the European nights to be some of the more laid back and somehow more relaxed evenings where people tend to turn the evening into a fun event rather than the edgy Prem games where we need to fight for that illusive CL spot.

As I've said, I'll be there and don't really give a monkey's who's sat there with me. You only live once you know.

This is from a Liverpool fan who is a general footy fan - and his view is directly relevant to our attendance tonight. In particular the combination of not yet having many glory hunters who will take up the slack, and playing dreadful football. Whenever my mate can't come he comes along on the Season Ticket as he just loves football. However in recent weeks he has turned down the chance to go because of Mancini's football.

If "neutrals" like this are turning their back on us, even if we win something it is clear that Mancini's style will cause even gloryhunters to stay away.

He also makes the point about Anfield being full for their 6pm kick off, which I have to admit I was surprised at (unemployed scouser jokes not needed). That stunned me, and puts our pathetic attendances firmly in the spotlight

Not a seat left at anfield at 6pm mate, u wont fill ur ground until u win 1st cup then the bandwagon fans jump aboard plus u av such a defensive manager .y pay to watch that

I agree mate, most of the football we've seen is not what you'd call entertainment. Going all the way back to when Mancini arrived I stated that I'm just gonna have to take it up the arse until he either starts playing a more attacking free-flowing type of game or alternatvely, is sacked. But that's what I'll do, take it up the ass without a reach-around because I'm there to support Man City and the lads in Blue, not the managers shit tactics and formations. And if we're to go through then I want to be there as it will surely be an entertaining game, the current score dictates that.

As they say, you pays your money and you takes your choice.
