Good point. City should sell this one out whatever you have thought.

Everton only got 29,000 the other day for a league game and only been getting 32/33,000ish generally I think, yet they want a new stadium. Football's too expensive ain't it.

You are TOTALLY missing the point...

I was presenting a series of events that could of given the WRONG impression... An innocent song about Suarez and someone screams some abuse that sounds racist but wasn't...

But to be frank, the cause saying someone didn't throw a comment looks weak now given comments from your own fans.

Its not an inept point... You just go all defensive and don't listen what people are saying...

Your self interest makes you look silly at times...

I never took them as on entity...

The one dick who shouted is a c**t...

I do question the thousands who sang the Suarez song after seeing him cry...

I do question the thousands who booed every touch of the ball he made after the incident...

That was shameful...

Oldham fans released what had happened... Your telling me Liverpool fans couldn't of added up the numbers...

Of course this has no bearing on the rest of the pool fans who showed much more dignity...

Which, to my mind, strummer has explained. The Suarez song was being song before in that match, it was being sung in their match against us. It wasn't sung in response. The booing could easily have been for timewasting, or for a foul that occurred imminently after, as suggested in a Liverpool fan thread Strummer linked to.

And yes, I don't believe the fans could have worked out what happened. It's very easy to miss something events of a game, and as has been said, it could easily have been a coin thrown or something else. With the benefit of hindsight, I don't believe many fans would be happy about booing, nor would fans of any club.

Strummer you got class dont worry mate and a pleasure to have banter and more serious discussions with...

Cant really comment on the issue as only seen the headlines.

We in shropshire have in my opinion more disgusting chants. Telford(non league team), chanting gary speed songs at a wrexham game.

So filth fans everywhere, from the biggest to smallest.

Just re-read it...

The just to remind you was aimed at the video...

You seem to disconnect the kop breaking out with a Suarez song... and then booing.... and more Suarez Song... and then booing... and the more suazez song...

From what was going on that field...

The video was to remind you of that....

If that clears it up a bit for you... I then said if it was my club I would find it disgusting...

Its up to you to look at yourself and ask why you don't come to the same conclusion...

Back to the 3rd round.

Delighted to come back from behind to beat Blackburn. 2/3 wins against them this season, after 6 years of having them as a bogey team. Not seen the goals yet, but reports and the radio suggested Ben Arfa's was after a great run, delighted to see him playing and scoring. Hopefully he'll keep his place for the league.

Not many upsets today, credit to Wrexham for getting that draw at Brighton, and Swindon beating Wigan is over a league jump. Several of the Prem sides have put out fairly full teams though, Us, Blackburn, West Brom, Bolton, Villa, Everton, Fulham. Fair play. Maybe more teams are really psyched for the cup this season.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
