Best of the season by a fecking mile.

Not so sure about the "Let's all do the Lampard" piss take though.

Atmosphere last night
- Thread starter ralphie88
- Start date
What was the Lampard? Annoying that TV no longer puts microphones by our away fans for fear of naughty words.
The first game I miss at Stamford Bridge for 4 years just happens to be our first win in 7
Atmosphere sounded brilliant but we always outsing the rent boys completely. They were very, very quiet once we scored, and we still outsung them before the goal anyway.

I can imagine what it was, probably better left unsaid to be fair.
I can't believe the commentators were saying how loud the Chelsea fans were and they were drowning us out. Sure I heard that at the start of the game?
I went mental saying are they for real?

I thought this was bizarre too. The commentator said it right in the middle of a United chant as well, very strange. I always remember when we played Scunthorpe, they literally barely chanted, but I watched some commentary of the game a few days later and they were congratulating the home fans for a 'stunning atmosphere', even though it was 90% United chants. Our away support is brilliant.
By all accounts...they were shite.
I could hear everything. Completely drowned out the Chelsea fans, great stuff.
It's like they are fecking thick.
All I could her was "UNITED UNITED"
Commentators say "The Chelsea fans are so loud drowning out the away support"
Laughable!

Our away support are criminally underrated by commentators. Match of the Day 2 made a point to show and laud the Blackpool fans singing at 3-0 down away to Fulham, and half of them were sitting down glumly. A couple of years back we were in the exact same spot, belted out songs for the entire second half to a man (apart from one or two dickheads who left), including "this is how it feels to be city" for the last 20 minutes, and not a word on any of the highlights I saw.
That last 20 minutes was one fo the best atmospheres I've been involved with.
Put my faith back into United fans that.
I think I heard the Chelsea fans pipe up with "shit, shit" in the middle of a "UNITED, UNITED" chant too..
My thoughts exactly at the time, it was clear as day the United fans were very loud for most parts of the game but particularly when The Artist Formerly Known as Red Clive said that.
I hear that as well. Obviously it was the Chelsea fans singing Viva John Terry
as thats all I could hear at the time.could hear it loud and clear on TV - lets hope it can be replicated by the bigger crowd on Tuesday and at Wembley!Best of the season by a fecking mile.

Sounded great on tv. Liked that chant we seemed to be singing throughout the game

Lost my voice abit today. Got abit of a sore throat. Never heard us that loud before. We was awesome and it looked like the players really appreciated it at the end.
Yeah, this seems to have only started recently, heard it at WH and also at the Chelsea game. Pretty simple really, our chants are usually more creative, but if it gets people singing then fair play.
Nice one T2000!, This has made me change the impression I initially had about you after that mid game doom thread you started on Saturday.

Proper Red you are.
Yep even SAF went over and applauded our fans after the game, well done to all.
Ha ha, thanks mate. I do come out with some spastic comments sometimes but im not that bad
Sounded like 'Chico, Chico, Chico' when young Hernandez was subbed? When did that start?
Immense support well done everyone who attended. Spent most of the game laughing at the feeble support from the plastics. No wonder they were so poor - Roman didn't give them any little flags this time!

Thats where I was for the league game, great position

The guy above the red devil logo is playing the mouth organ?
what was the song people were singing towards the end that sound like the louis saha song?
yeah you areHa ha, thanks mate. I do come out with some spastic comments sometimes but im not that bad
I was looking for that photo. Glad to say half of me is in it

Was the best of the season by a mile, absolutely brilliant night. The day was great as well, having drinks down by the Cottage in the morning having a kick about with a flat ball we found and then moved onto around Earls Court.
Agree with you Ralphie, that Lampard thing was a bit too far.
Great laugh, "fecking fecking what fecking what?"
Bit disappointed Edwin is standing in front of me in the second pic mind...

Probably digging his nose, and covered it with his other hand so that others will not notice.
I thought I heard "Viva Hernandez!"
There was loads of "Where were you when you were shit?"
They were outsung from start to finish.

Van Der Sar fist pumping when they came over was great!
Lots of drinks and partying at Earls court before the game.
I noticed that the police loved to have a chat to all the United supporters and had a good laugh with us. No trouble what so ever.
A long walk through the biggest graveyard ever. I wondered where the police where taking us. Noticed just a few people walking over graves and even pissing on the odd one. Not good at all. The grave yard was quite stunning to be honest.
United players warming up. Beware flying footballs. No shit sherlock!
Some of the players who had travelled come and walked to us. Michael Owen was fantastic. He loved the attention and acknowledged us big time.
Anyone else notice the string of empty seats at the back of the stadium? Stamford bridge only sits less that 60,000 aswell. Embarrassing really.
Job done. The players gave us a great farewell. The steward at the bottom was the biggest guy i have ever seen in my life. When he walked up most of us just couldnt say anything. We was in shock with our mouths open.
There was one Chelsea fan who started to give abit of stick to us. He got so much abuse in the end and you could see he was embassed. He had a pony tail aswell. A chelsea fan at the left of him was pissing himself at the abuse this guy got. It was so funny. We sang "does your boyfriend know your here?" and "theres only one andy carroll!".

Great pictures! Stamford Bridge holds just over 40k though, so it's even more embarrassing than you thought.
I was sat just to the left of you T2000 and I must have just been out of the picture (to the left) when you took the pictures outside the pub.
Quality atmosphere - probably the best I have been involved in. No trouble from what I saw, all good natured and very, very enjoyable. Had a good laugh with all the Reds that I met as well as the few Chelsea fans I spoke to, except the Ginger Torres outside the ground.
I also noticed the four or five rows of emote seats at the back of the Matthew Hrding stand. Very strange and it seems as if they were not offered for sale rather than actually not being purchased.

T2000, that lad with the pony tail didn't look back at us ONCE after all the abuse 'Get your hair cut you cockney twat' and 'does your boyfriend know youre here' were quality.
Really did at points feel like a normal euro away (bar the obvious)... Sun, booze everywhere, mostly everyone congregating at the same area but for once the atmosphere was closer to a domestic. That Graveyard was fecking massive.
Saw quite a few jib as well, not surprised really, despite 3 lines of stewards not one checked us lot.

Gutted I missed this one
I got checked 3 times and they tried to take my Rice Krispie Square off me before I went in, as well as claiming that I had alcohol on me despite the fact that it was quite clearly a bottle of Lucozade.
You're right though - fantastic crowd and everyone seemed up for it. The weather and the congregating certainly helped
Tried to take your fecking Rice Krispie square???
The fecking cnut. That's almost inhuman. You should have clocked the daft twat...
Disgrace.
