Wasn't too long ago the atmosphere at City ground was pretty poor.
That said, I'd rather we stay and improve, and I think that Athletic article was put out to help negotiations with council and to soften fans opinion of move.
I dunno I think there is some substance to the narrative.
If the team is struggling or if we drop back into the Championship and we have 10,000 empty seats then it could become a soulless bowl. Hopefully that would never happen but I don't think anyone would be too surprised if it did.
Last night it was a European Semi Final, it wasn't Bournemouth at home on a Tuesday night. Also Greeks are much more passionate and have more fire in their bellies than the English. We shouldn't really compare the two things because it's not really a fair comparison.
Panic on the streets of Croydon, Derby, Sheffield, Leicestershire.
