What did those people chant ?
the silver lining about that is that this could be a wake up call for those dumbfucks, considering they looked like teenagers or young adults
but who im kidding, prob won’t change a thing
And why should they change? Who have they hurt?
These “fans” are not City fans. Absolute disgrace.
It was just some banter in poor taste. Doubt Sir Bobby would care. He’s heard much worse.
Truly. Who cares what some drunk kids chanted? They did one round and it died off because they realized people didn’t join in. They can do what they want as a club I guess, but I’m sure worse is said in the stands.
I suppose we can call down to your house and sing that song about someone close to you has passed away!! It’s just for the laugh!!
I hate two-faced people.
Well done. I have to say that City have tended to be fairly lax on banning fans for this sort of thing, so hopefully this is a sign of change.
In fairness to them, it would be very awkward if they tried to ban their own players and staff from the Ethiad
Probably want to make a strong statement now with the game coming up to deter any incidents then when it’ll be higher profile.
soft
Sir Bobby has more history than your entire club, get the fuck outta here lol
Depressing comment
Fuck off with that, those arseholes obviously deserve a ban for mocking the death of one of England’s greatest ever footballers. Are you one of those who’s been banned?
Agree, the punishment is soft.
It’s one of the most heartless things to celebrate a person’s death, especially for a petty things like sport rivalry. We don’t live in medieval time anymore. Wake the fuck up.
its just a chant, yeah its bad taste but a stadium ban for that seems over the top to me
Is it offensive? Who’s offended? Is it not more offensive to equate this to racism or homophobia?
I know its a different culture, but banning someone for insulting a dead man doesn’t make any sense here lol. Are the football chants respectful over there? I know people here will say that we are racists, which is true for all of our countries, but at least we are not constantly solemn.

If you’d rather be racist than “solemn”, I don’t know what to tell you.
I didn’t say that, but be sure that racism in your country (whatever it is) racism is not less than here. You’re just more boring.
If he gets to be a hero to some for something as inconsequential and pointless as kicking a ball around its only fair he can be a villain to some as well.
The right response is ignoring it, taking it as light banter from rivals and total strangers who didnt personally know the man and moving on.
I hope they are ready to ban 90% of the league when Fergie dies.
Shame they never take this stance for the numerous times their fans have mocked the Hillsborough disaster. Obviously this is the correct course of action but it does feel like a slap in the face when nothing happens when City fans are constantly singing about Hillsborough both at the Etihad and at Anfield. The best we get is a half assed “sorry if you’re offended, if it happened” apology from Pep and that’s basically it
Tragedy chanting for years is fiiiine as long as it’s a direct rival
Unluckyyyyy. Stupid cunts
And people are supporting this?!!?!
Plastic clubs and internet fans lol
In their defense, City is the definition of Nouveau Riche… club legends are not something they’re familiar with, so they just don’t know how to act in relation to the concept
Didn’t some set of fans do the same when the queen died? Not sure what happened to those folks
