    Citeh v Dortmund

    Just watching that game on TV. It just brings home to me the real difference between German and British football.

    The Germans were almost to a man in their seats (with or without beach towels) at least half an hour before kick off, which is quite normal for home games as well, at least for the 'fans' sections. The Citeh supporters seem to be still arriving, though it may just be a sh*tey home support. Though there was hardly anyone in their areas about 5 minutes before the game.

    The Germans have been singng since I switched the game on, while I've so far heard two quiet chants of 'Citeh'. The stewards also seem to be having a hard time explaining to the Germans that they're not supposed to be standing up, or having any fun that could be deemed against safety standards. Good luck to them

    The City fans did the same when they were Chelsea fans.

    Empty Seats. Is the Champions League not good enough for City now?

    Tune into ZDF for the return leg when there's thousands of City fans over there on a jolly with no work the next day and you might find there's not such a difference after all - in the away supports anyway.

    I'd agree that there's a big difference between the atmosphere created by home fans in the two countries......in some cases. "Wo ist denn die gelbe Wand ihr wichser"

    Surprised City and Arsenal have not sold out. But even at the top end of the game fans are struggling to continue forking out for games live on TV.

    Thought it was Stoke now?

    If it is God knows how. I was at a game at the Britannia last season as I was staying in Stoke (worst city ever) for a training course. Crowd was loud but the football was truly awful, Bobby Williamson stuff without the entertainment.

    Actually having a look at a poll from 2 seasons ago it would appear Liverpool are the loudest. Man United a close 2nd, Aston Villa 3rd and Man City...13th. Behind the likes of Wigan, Stoke, Blackpool and Sunderland.

    Joe Hart has kept citeh in this match. If it wasn't for him, Dortmund could easily be 3-4 up.

    That's allowed he is part of the team. Funny how you always hear that said about keepers but never about the striker who scores the only goal!

    Yeah I'm just very surprised on how easily Dortmund are cutting through citeh's defence. Citeh had the best defensive record in England last season and that defence was like a shield.

    Ironically, they cant find Kompany a defensive partner.

    You defend as a team and the germans have not scored yet? Still got a clean sheet....

    Pretty weird that one. The lad playing next to Kompany right now is supposed to be the new Nemanja Vidic.

    He's a great player. I also like the look of that Mario Goetze.
