Having watched the Besiktas match tonight, which home support would u think creates a better atmosphere, Besiktas or Manure?  |

The whole Champions League is boring at this stage, predicable sh*te unlike the FAI Cup this evening; much more interesting

I was busy training so got home in time to watch the end of the Rovers match.
Champs league is a sh*te competition and im bored of it. They need to go back to knock out rounds all the way through and stop this league carry on and forget about the money.
I'd go to Old Trafford to watch cricket before id go to Old Trafford to watch soccer. 10% from Manchester, 30% from Ireland, 20% from Japan, 10% from India and the remaining 30% from god knows fookin where and you call yourself real supporters??

Ye the united fans are all bandwagoners- terrible atmosphere in ot- champions league is crap aswell dont know why they bother holding it anymore tbh shamrock rovers are prob a bit above the champo league- wouldnt lower themselves to that level- be interesting to see what shamrock rovers average attendace was in 06 compared to this year. 24 August 1949, Manchester united beat bolton 3 0 witnessed by 41,748 supporters in old trafford -10% from Manchester, 30% from Ireland, 20% from Japan, 10% from India and the remaining 30% from god knows fookin where and you call yourself real supporters?? ------------- It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it |

bored with the premier league and the champions league myself , knock outs are good in the CL and when its tight at the top of the league its interesting but really i can understand people who are not supporters of the teams calling it a load of me bollo.
if you are a fan of those teams of course you will think differently..
if you are a man u or liverpool fan here though why not take the time to go to the Domestic league games , too many fellas stuck to the armchair and going to liverpool/manchester/london once a month or every two months..

Over the course of a league season there are bound to be plenty of boring games- Look at city arsenal at the weekend though- absolutely full of incident- and 6 goals- then again you have brum villa which was absolute sh*te- happens in every league/ cup- i do think they should go back to the old format in the european cup ie a straight knockout with only the league winners entering the competition- but with the tv money and that they try to squeeze loadsa average teams into the champo ------------- It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it |

Was at United vs Watford FA Cup Semi Final in Villa Park a couple of years ago and it was the best atmosphere Ive experienced at a football match..Also United vs Barca Champions League Semi Final 2 years ago was unbelieveable.
Not many home supports in the PL cover themselves in glory,the hardcore away support is always better than the home fans.. ------------- Theres only one sport that matters.. |

Lads sorry I have to disagree wit a few of ye !! besiktas was million times better..hardcore !!
I'm a united fan and have been at about 25 matches in the last 16 years and I have always thought the atmosphere was sh*t.
- I went to watch Salzburg in Trappas last match 2yrs ago, and the atmosphere was 10 times better.
- I was at Sheff Wed-Sheff Utd Match last year and atmosphere was electric, again 10 times better.
I could list off 5/6 other examples where atmosphere was alot better.
In OT half the fans don't know songs, and are generally quiet !!

Its the same everywhere though. With 75000 supporters at OT you are always going to get people who dont care about generating an atmosphere. Look at Ireland games at Croke Park. Been to most home Utd games the last few seasons at OT and some games atmosphere has been class and others not so good. Away games have always a great atmosphere though |

Well said- in fairness the atmosphere is always better among away fans- was in the united end against liverpool three times and the united end in elland road once- the atmosphere in elland road was unreal- electric- it was gas in anfield it was quiet as fook united fans kept singing- wheres your famous atmosphere- the united barca game in ot in 08 was unreal- a lot of games in ot where the atmosphere aint great but sure its the same at loads of grounds- been at about 6 or 7 pool home games never once experienced a decent atmosphere there ------------- It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it |

Saying ye couldnt care less bout it followed by bringing the subject up again  I was at a birmingham "DERBY"  in January between Villa and West BromI think my ears are still ringing from the white hot atmosphere- Hardly any wonder Villa only won 5 league games at home last season- Teams hardly feel too intimidated by playing in villa park- The United fans gave Terry dogs abuse so soon after such a big miss in a european cup final that defo affected his performance- How often do Chelsea concede 3? They conceded 3 that day against united- No coincidence United have such a good home record ------------- It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it |

Old Trafford and Anfield are full of day trippers who bring their cameras and take loads of pictures to show the mates when they get home that they were there. Two grounds that once had decent atmospheres are now dead for the majority of matches Liverpool are still living off the fame of the old Kop and even have campaigns to get rid of the day trippers - Out Of Towners Out is what it's called I believe |
