I was well off with my prediction that the home end would be littered with city fans.

Very respectful and applauded our team at the end. That’s class.

No because they came thinking it was going to be an easy afternoon stroll but instead were pushed right to the end by an team that probably earns collectively less than just one of their players.

There were no fans not celebrating when we took the lead . As per your past posts you were not even there. Are you Eddie Spiv Hearn in disguise?

You recognised every fan in the North Stand? And checked they all had scarfes on? Seems unlikely.

‘You’ve seen the Champions, now f*** off home’ after they finally took the lead in the 80th minute.

Class.

The BBC focused a few times on one of the Gallagher brothers in the middle of the away fans. I think him being in with the fans is akin to Kent being in with our fans.

Well said Ron although I thought their support was shocking for a Club of their status. If that had been United it would have been rumbustious and noisy. Seen more animation in a still life painting than in some of their fans although I thought Pep was class at the end.

I met 2 City fans, Michael & Greg, in the Moxy in Stratford Fri night & Sat morning. We had a good chat.
Greg has written a book about City called 'To the blue moon & back.' They were both fans of long standing & particularly wanted to see this game as they'd never been to our ground.
Michael messaged me after the game & was clearly worried for a time.
Most City fans I've met are proper football fans but I'm sure they have their plastic element.

It's an odd club. Vast majority of their match going support will have an outlook on football not dissimilar to ours - to expect the worse, that they are overshadowed by bigger teams, that their lot is mainly to fail and occasionally have moments of success. And they've then suddenly become the most successful (and arguably disliked) team in the country, fronting a horrid sports washing regime. Get the sense it's created a bit of an identity crisis for them, the city fans I've met have tended to be a self loathing lot who are still expecting to wake up from the last 15 years and find themselves getting battered by Middleborough. Weren't particularly loud on Saturday but would we be if losing to a team 2 tiers below us and playing like sh*t?

Was glad that despite some of the nonsense being peddled about loads of City fans being in the home end, this didn't happen on a scale that was in any way noticeable.

I'll agree with that, had to remove one from my seat. Not sure it was entirely his fault as the guy 2 seats over to my left has a rather generous arse so does sometimes park it across 2 seats.

Shocked that more staff weren't put on or at least pints not poured in advance at half time though. Whole of half time taken up because the boy wanted pringles and a sprite the little poo poo
