I just see it as if you've got time to whip out your cam, then you've got no focus on the game. I know it sounds OTT, but as much as I'd like to film us lot singing, the game itself and everyone having a laugh, it never crosses my mind during a game. Even for a split second, it just seems wrong to take your focus off the game. Like I said, it seems OTT, but it's just what I feel. yeah i get it just if someone feel the need for a second to swtich off from the game to take a pic is comprehensible..but as i said i would never spend £ 30 just for taking pics cos i will have my mind on the game but when the game will be over i would like to come back home with a memory. I think the difference is i live in Italy and thats why i will probably try to take pics and record a video...you live there and is different cos u can go there anytime.

That's all it takes, normally. I'm a Stretford Ender, so there's noise everywhere in our west stand, but I remember when I did a one-off trade for my Stretford End seat for a south stand one, just because my mate has never been sat there. This was when Arsenal came up last year and they beat us, but what annoyed me was that some man behind me actually used physical contact to sit me down. I know you have to sit down there but I couldn't help it and after a few moans from him, he held my shoulder. But when I sung, others began to sing around me, but it was still pathetic. Like you said, a big group in each block would work out so much better, cause others get more confidence to sing. Instead we have pockets of support. Rant over... if i ever come to Manchester i know which is the best place to see a United game but i doubt i will found any tickets for the Streford End. By the way is it online this chant? Yea I don't think it's easy to get tickets for the Stretford-end as a "tourist". My uncle always talks about going to OT with me but I want to go on my own cause I know i would end up sitting on my arse in a tourist section alongside a bunch of Japanese (nothing against them just not my idea of following football)

No offense, but why couldn't you just take pics before and after the game? That's enough memory, surely? I don't want any trouble, especially with a woman!

Maybe I'm being a bit too harsh, but I'm just seeing it the way I like it. The phone goes off, as I can't hear it or feel the vibration anyway and ther'es no point talking due to the game itself and the noise. I always eat before the game so I don't have to stand around for 90 minutes on an empty stomach. Everyone should just do that, to stop everyone leaving before the whistle.

well i dont think its right abusing the tourists and stuff because they are lifelong united fans aswel, we have some guys on here who are from abroad and would love to go to old trafford for soem games and it would hurt me if fellow fans gave them stick for being tourists. United is a club for fans worldwide and imo fans can come watch us anytime and from come from anywhere on the globe because that would mean so much to them! Im sure they would be on a high seeing old trafford and everything and jus feed off the atmosphere and join in the chants that they must know!!!

Sorry but i dnt need that someone tell me if i can take pictures or not at a football game this is something if i wanna do i do without any kind of permission and if someone else is not agree well this is not my problem. We must be free to do anything we like and as human being we're able to watch a game sing and also taking pics if we like. Robnob it seems you consider fans or supporters only the people who lives there but remember MANCHESTER UNITED is a worldwilde team which is well know all around the world and the things you're saying sound a bit against the ones are not from there and this is not nice.

Like I said, I don't want any arguments. All I care about is the state of my club. There's supporters willing to queue up for beards under Old Trafford and wait in a long queue for tickets. I used to be in that number before the season tick.

I know, but I was just sharing my opinion!!! I prefer people not to do it, but you know, like you said, I can't control that and have no right to.
And get on MSN!
