  • Man City fans singing their classic anthem 20 minutes after the last game at Maine Road.
    The stadium was built in 1923, closed in 2003 and demolished the year after.
    By the way, I only uploaded this because I thought it was brilliant. I was born in the Skåne region of Scandinavia, and so I support Helsingborgs IF - my local football club.

    Literally brings a tear to my eye this video. I was too young to ever go to Maine Road, but my mum had a season ticket in the Kippax. Wish I could have been there in that incredible atmosphere, the Etihad’s a fantastic Stadium - but where’s the atmosphere/passion? I know these City fans haven’t gone missing, one day the Etihad will be like this.

      LewAll l yeh it’s murder destroying Maine Road, Highbury, Upton Park, I hear Goodison Parks next on the list. And as soon as we become successful, the ground becomes full of Chinese tourists taking up full rows. It used to be the case that only United were like that and City were a proper Manchester clubs supported by mancs. Like Everton are a proper scouse club. I’d prefer to be bouncing up and down the leagues with one of best fanbases in the country, playing are home games in front of crowds up to 80,000 than top of the premier league because of Arab investment in a soulless stadium full of tourists. That’s how it used to be at city in the 80s and 90s. I’d much rather have been a city fan then than now. Even if they were the years when we never won a trophy. At least we had character and a community.

    I lost my password somehow for my old account which I used to upload this video. I think it could be worth mentioning though that the reason why I felt it was brilliant was because there was real passion involved and history aswell. I don't conform to any particular explenation why everything turned to shit and I particularly don't blame money in the sport. Money is an indicator of value. Passion attributed to a club provides true and actual value which in turn makes the club marketable. To say that there should be less money in sport is to say that sport should be put on a lower standard, so that it can easier be manipulated and degraded into a means of marketing other things such as communist ideas. I believe that the notion of "modern football" as something inherently bad has been spread not through legit free speech but also through blindfolding the masses and through attributing precisely that passion which comes naturally with tradition to quite the opposite of what a completely uncontroled market leads to. The only thing I want other than to just let things flow is to correct the damages already caused by the filth. In my country that would be the death of malmö ff.

    The city culture has changed loads recent years it’s hard for rival fans to understand but you can tell the old guard miss these days deep down. Can’t beat the football we’re watching now but you gotta say we’ve sold our soul with it. Felt very divided at Wembley other day just want us to back to being loud, proud and loyal again. Can’t put my finger on what’s happened to the fan culture but it feels like we’ve lost identity a bit to me even tho it’s still mostly local

I can still feel pain in my heart since we left good old Highbury and I just want to tell everybody who is a Liverpool or a West Ham United fan to stand up and say NO! Believe me do it while you still can beacuse when your ground is gone you will never be able to watch a home game again and feel like this is the soul of the club.

      We must forget the past and look towards the future. Those stadiums have been degraded and are difficult to use long-term, moreover, now a football stadium is no longer simply for weekend matches, it must be more multi-functional and modern to have more revenue
      In the near future, both Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge will also follow this path

    brings back nice memories for me this, im the biggest blue their is I love our new stadium but i dont like the area its in, too many rags for my liking, will never feel like home to me.
    We should have built it in heaton moor or cheadle or even gatley that way at least it would be safe for us to round there.
