Old fogies everyday rather than the armchair cunts .

You just can't fucking help yourself, can you?

I don’t really get the hating on City fans

That reminds me. My e ticket for the game on Wednesday night didn't work. Made me think of you.

a 20,000 safe standing end behind the goal with £300/year season tickets
maximum age of 55

will you be going to the games ?

i see no reason to limit it to under 55 years olds , ask wayne , there are some lovely grannies out there.

not the whole stadium
just the expanded (all safe standing?) stand

Not at all , many older fans enjoy standing . Anyway you hear and learn some great quips from older fans. The youngsters of today wouldn't know where to stick their phones .

Btw an open standing end is an open invitation to pick pockets . A regular occurence at Maine Rd.

Very True.
Nowadays the younger generation only reserve their vocal rage and excitement for social media.

As Mike Summerbee said; He saw opposing players visibly wilt when they had to play in front of it....Such was the intimidating atmosphere those old fogies made.

Compared to then, the current noise is often only created when the team's performance excites them.
When the team doesn't excite, often the only chant is a sort of whinging "Come on City" or realtive silence.

As a match going old fogie, I was going to post something similar.
But I really couldn't be arsed.

[patrickblue]

And just to add in 109 where I've always stood, not sat since the stadium move.

[zuricity]

I would certainly buy two season tickets for the new area - if possible. I get so many people asking to go and see a game. If standing , even better.

This is spot on, I remember players saying when City were attacking the roar from the Kippax was so intimidating, also buzzer saying it gave him a extra yard of pace when he was roared on

You are only as old as you feel. As the saying goes. Or maybe i am old, i think it was 'you are only as old as the woman you feel'.

Build it and they will come

Stop fucking about and get another tier on the north and east stands and get us up close to 70000 with increased corporate for revenue.

We have the fan base and this is increasing year on year

Baby Boomers were born after the war not in the mid fifties or later. They were the Hippy generation. not mods and rockers
