City/Boro fans

[Jamie!]

Right, Carlisle ain't got a game over the weekend (28th/29th Nov).. and me and a couple of lads are going to go to either the Manc derby or the Boro/Newcastle match... so, what's the crack with tickets? I know neither are on general sale yet but there's only a few left looking on the City site and the Boro site says they are selling out fast.

Is it gunna be easy to get tickets or what?

[nooblah123]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL Haha Leeds United FTW!

[British]

Its not going to be easy like any derby.
for the better atmoshere go for the manchester derby.

[Jordie]

I know for a fact you wont get manc derby tickets unless you have someone inside the club.

Boro vs Newcastle you should be able to get tickets.

[Geraint]

It's 29th/30th. Go see Swansea v Cardiff.

That's a good thing. The atmosphere is second to none (well, apart from the reverse fixture at our ground)

[Jamie!]

Nvm people, one of the City coach regulars are gunna sort us out with some tickets tomorrow with their CityCard (???), 42bar a pop apparently!

We should be able to get tickets for the Boro match as well easily enough, I know they've said there is only a limited amount of tickets left but they go on general sale on Thursday so I should be able to sort them out.

[Geraint]

Go to both. Boro is Saturday, City is Sunday.

[Jamie!]

That's what we're doing now lol.

How many tickets you got for Swansea, the police made it a bubble?

[Mexel]

Haha Cardiff V Birmingham was made bubble this season (about time) and there was next to no trouble!

[Cixso]

I'm going to the Middlesbrough V Newcastle game.

Should be a cracker. This will determine who the top team (NOTE: I said team, not club. Newcastle are obv a bigger club) currently in the NE.

I mean, e have a much better structure than Newcastle.

[Geraint]

1,400. Escort from Ninian Park to the ground. Took us 2 hours last time.

We always have bubbles.

[Minstrels]

You have a 0% chance of getting tickets for the Manchester derby, fact. Seems as you'll have 0 loyalty points.

Read my post up there... someone from college is sorting us out with some.

Doubt you'll like it.

[Jamie!]

Why..?

[Minstrels]

Why..?
The Manchester derby is a Manc thing. If you are not singing bluemoon at the start of the game in the derby you will be abused by surounding fans. You will not get the feel of what it is like between the two clubs because you support neither. You will not know any words to chants so you will fee left out. You wont feel the same rush fans of the clubs do at the derbys.

I'm sure Geriant would say the same about the Cardiff derby.

Go to Swansea v Cardiff. Turn up a caravan, grow a moustache, dress in Lonsdale, sorted.

He's probably right, you won't feel that same intensity as we would. The atmosphere would be brilliant but it just wouldn't feel right.

[Jamie!]

I don't see what difference it makes myself, I'm going to visit a new ground and sample the atmoshphere - I ain't going wanting to join in with the chants or want a particular team to win, just watch some football.

Fairly certain I won't be 'abused' either. It ain't as if every single person in the ground will be stood arms aloft belting out the chants, is it?

I know what you mean, though...

In the Manchester derby... yes it is. And if your not stood up you'll be called a rag and then booted until the stewards jump in. In any other match you'll be fine, just not the Manchester derby. And it's not really good sampling the atmosphere at grounds on derby day and not wanting to sing because people will suspect your a fan from the away end and will give you abuse.

They could all just say "We're from Carlisle, we haven't got a game, so we came down to watch this. We went to Boro v Newcastle, yesterday" Most people who are fans from the "away end" do sing because they don't want to draw attention to themselves.

Well then the City fans will go "Well we don't want you in here, we want a blue so get the **** outa here now". It's just not the same if you ask me.

So, you're trying to tell me, if I don't sing the anthem, I'm not Welsh? It's the same thing, really.

I know you know alot more than me on the subject, but to but it bluntly - what a load of ****. :lol:

[Pyroka]

I think if thats true, Man City & Utd supporters aren't very... loyal to their team. I mean, they would rather not have a possible supporter rooting for their team. Nah they'd rather chuck em out and uphold the reputation of the team being full of ********.

Win win sitch... lol. Liverpool v Everton isn't even that bad, and hell that's something of a Derby. Ever been in a packed stadium full of scousers? Fear for your life if you're on the winning side! Luckily I've never had that problem LOL.

No, if you don't sing that bluebird song while you'll in the home end in the Cardiff derby what will happen to me if I'm just sat down with jeans and a jacket on? Not joining in to any chants?

Ryan is that guy in the purple top on ITV1 you???

[Geraint]

When Cardiff played Swansea, I was literally ******* myself. The passion was there, the atmosphere was there, the masses of police were there but the amount of men who couldn't give a **** about the result was, well, scary.

[Pyroka]

I'm not watching ITV, but Golden Balls is not something I r fond of!!!

So do you think it's a safe place for a support or neither team to sit right in the middle of all it? Just sitting their... doing nothing? Showing no signs of being a support of the home club?

We wouldn't say anything. If anything, they'd greet you well and talk to you. I don't sing at home games and my dad doesn't for any game. Does that mean I'll get beat up?

[Jack.Lfc]

I don't sing at home games

BOOORRRINGGG

[Geraint]

BOOORRRINGGG

Neither do you :lol:
