GOING PREMIUM - MANCHESTER CITY

I love that from those Americans, getting into the game and then going to see all the big boys. Brilliant!

[@jackw3302]

Props to my 2 fellow Americans for not coming off ignorant and wants to really learn about the sport and enjoy it the proper way.

So you actually parked in my Primary school from yonks ago. The lady you met used to help teach a friend of mine. The fish and chip shop i used to work at too alongside my sister.

First season when Forest went up did my first away at city and ended up losing 4-0 but didn’t matter because I captained haaland. Fans either side of the lower tier away end were fantastic and had great banter. Underrated away day imo

[@OllieTheFirst]

The matchday atmosphere is good on 'big games' but other days people don't seem arsed other than the Kippax corner next to the away end and the South Stand. Even then the Kippax gives it to the South Stand when they are stood there like statues. Sadly the same in many grounds around the country as day trippers are being prioritised now, the same day trippers that also go to experience the atmosphere that many don't contribute to. - City season ticket holder.

[@smivadee]

Having been to lots of grounds I do find the home support to often be a tad flat. The bigger the stadium the more diluted it gets. As you say, big games it can alive but away support is often unrivalled

[@OllieTheFirst]

@@smivadee yea it’s so weird. Mix of people being split up where they wouldn’t be at an away game, and it’s a day out at an away with people drinking since the crack of dawn. You should do a series where you rate away fans tbf haha

[@juhaleskinen7383]

I wonder how close to zero these add are. Like how many people watch these and decide to pay that amount of money for nothing. Or not nothing, but like with those prices it is like paying too much for trash. This just tells how much extra money some company has. They have the money to paid these AD's that don't merge into buying those expensive tickets, because no normal people do it. But of course when you spend enough money to several youtubers, you might get some tickets to sold.

[@smivadee]

It’s a valid point. I think hospitality tickets for the regular fan can be used as more of an occasion, a birthday for example.

From a real football fan, very disappointing from you. First line mentions ( alleged and as yet innocent) rule breaking ( rules implemented to protect the traditional elite btw) and the sky season ticket bedroom warrior atmosphere myth.

[@smivadee]

Firstly this isn’t a dick measuring contest so let’s not get into who’s the “real football fan” here or who’s more of one. I’m sure you spend a lot of time and money watching your club, so good for you. The opening line of the video is simply based on (whether you like it or not) City’s current reputation from the outside looking in, hence why I’m attending to see what it’s really like for myself. It’s not that deep
