Great if it was like Barca and a wall of noise on them coming out, booing their lineup, singing through the anthem and not stopping for kickoff.

The Barcelona game was the best atmosphere I’ve ever experienced. Genuinely felt as if the stadium was shaking. And that was at 36k.

 

I have wondered whether it was actually as good as I remember, as I was relatively young at the time, but then I see the clips on TV again, and I feel reassured it’s not just my memory playing tricks.

Seem to remember there was no alcohol in the stadium because we were all necking pints in the Goose(or rather whatever it was previously) then sprinted to the ground at 7.30to make the teams coming out, place was absolutely bussing in the streets, concourse the lot

Not that I can really remember, but you’re probably right as I think they only lifted the alcohol ban at CL matches about 5 years ago.

Actually it was definitely no alcohol as my mate paid about £40 on beers in the Nou Camp to find it was Sin Alcohol haha

[Adam P]

Still serve non alcoholic beer at the Nou Camp for the CL. Was there for the Inter game last season.

The bellend on the decks will ruin it as usual.

Buzzing for the Parisians to hear Doris Day at FT.

Probably the best atmosphere I’ve known in all my years. Have a feeling tonight will be no better no worse than Man City last week due to quality and ball retention of the opposition but hopefully it’s better. No doubt the 5-10mins before KO will be better.

Fucking howay the lads, stand up and be heard. Never mind flags all we need is ya voice

Its definitely not your memory. Spanish commentary describes it as "tremenda aura' (or whatever) tremendous ambience/atmosphere.

Only Man United 95/96 was definitely better. But that might have been better than any atmosphere ever in England - it was something else. I'll forever wonder what one of those early chances going in would have sounded like.

Barca 1997 was the greatest night of my 15 year old life at that point. I felt like a celebrity at school the next day as everyone wanted to know what it was like at the match!

[bobbydazzla]

By 8.02 the flags will have been put away and 90% of ground will be sat in relative silence, pissing and moaning about summat that a player hasn’t even done yet 

 

Amirite ?

Because I’m a miserable cunt as I didn’t get a ticket. Probably 

 

Only joking. I hope we get into them.

We should never, ever leave SJP. 

[jack j]

As good as I've ever heard it ever ( I think)

[RobsonsWonderland]

Had the pleasure of being in the last home seat to the away fans...

 

To be fair they were absolutely fantastic and never stopped.

 

Can still hear the bloody drum ?? in my head !

Sounded one of the best I've ever heard. And that was on TV.

[Wilson]

Anyone order a bear pit? 

 

 

[TRon]

Feel jealous of those whe were there tonight. But seeing a load of kids there enjoying the magic was also great to know that the next generation will grow up knowing what it's like to see us up there.

[Pata]

Commentators on Finnish TV were astounded by the atmosphere, sounded amazing on TV. Well done to everyone who had a ticket and obviously Wor Flags.

I'm in leazes L4T, just below level 7, that f*cking drum man ?, the lad banging it will have a sore arm tomorrow 

[Adam]

That was class, everyone was up for it. Loud and hostile, loads of songs going around with plenty of agro and reaction to on pitch events. 

 

I've got some videos, will find somewhere to upload them, then post it. 

 

What a fucking night. 

[Pilko]

Best away fans I've seen and best I've ever heard the home atmosphere. Was absolutely banging other than the 10 mins after their goal where people got a little nervy.

 

The crowd reacted to every tackle and every block and the groans when we lost the ball on occasion seemed to disappear tonight.
