Champions League 15/16

No I don't. I feel that any football supporter of any team that wants to go the considerable time and expense of travelling to see their team play a game of football is a great thing,,and for them to be deprived of that through no fault of their own is a bad thing.

I'd say 136k over 3 games is a bloody good attendance. But I don't think a supporter of a team with smaller crowds than that is any less deserving of a chance to see their team play a game of football. Thats such a anti-supporter perspective on things.

Good way to take everything so bloody serious.

Of course it's not the individuals in question's fault the stadium is going to be closed. It's also not these die-hard's fault that 20% of the stadium is empty at those mid-week games. But end of the day they're City fans and 20% don't go to mid-week home games, down the road they're getting 70k+ to watch snooze football. Them complaining about not being able to go to an away game wouldn't be as funny/ironic

How so?

Attendances this season in the CL have been 50K, 45K & 41K at your 60K seat stadium. But a few on twitter have come out and said how unfair it is City fans wont go to the away leg. 10-20k don't turn up to the home legs can you not see the irony in that?

To be fair the kind of fans that would be willing to go to kiev to watch their team would have no doubt attended every game so far this season.

Yeah see above. Obviously if we're talking literally about individuals Dave the nutjob with a City tat on his skull complaining about not getting a ticket in Kiev is going to be 1 of the 40,000 odd at every game. But as a collective quite a lot aren't

Sorry. Wasnt obvious to me that you were joking (for some reason).

Yeah 100% was in jest.

After the press attention the empty-had was getting it was too easy to not have a go

You pretty much have to be in the cup scheme to get tickets for a European away.

So you've already committed to each home game of the comp up to QF stage.

I've been going 13 years and wouldnt have a hope of a ticket through usual means as I'm not on the cup scheme.

if minnow club fans could head towards their minnow club thread then we could rid this thread of that overbearing stench of failure thatd be grand.

steady on manuel, city were literally a minnow club not long before you started playing with them on fifa career mode 5 years ago and upgraded your token chelsea support to blue moon extremism

 

[Bomberboyokay]

But I didnt go to any of the games so I'm not going to have a go at our attendances.

No Terry for us is going to hurt.

wouldnt mind not facing a pack of racists for once in the cl. for some reason the stadium ban for them was lifted. grand gesture from uefa to allow another cl team against us to get away with racism.

seems odd that cfc are one of 16 teams in ucl

 

[Jaeger]

Does anyone know a good site to watch them on?

Dont see why as we've earned the right to be were we are.

 

[Cruyff14]

We won't beat Barca, just hope we get through it with no injures.

Our annual fixture against PSG. Can't wait, we've hit form at the right time.

Di Maria vs Branislol should be fun. he loves beating up minnows in ligue 1 so would expect that to continue against Ivanovic.

Branislol will be playing at CB, so you may have to wait.

Who do United play?
