I know its not how you meant it but you sound like a typical glory supporting Man U fan!
Have to agree though, Old Trafford has always been a fairly quiet ground, probably because 80% of the fans dont speak english!

to be honest i know the atmosphere at o.t. isnt as bad as people make out,after all ive been to hundreds of games,but it just lost the buzz for me an a few of me mates,wanted to try something new,its good to go and watch the match again and be able to stand with your mates and not have special security nobheads tryin to force you to sit down in your seat.i still support united i just make do with watching them on the telly now,somethin i would never have expected myself to do a few years ago!

well take it from someone who has seen liverpool a few 100 times, the atmosphere at Anfield and away matches is amazing. The semi final last year against Chelsea was just 90mins of pure singing. And where else would you get fans singing at half time when your 3-0 down in Champs final...Utd fans would of been half way home by then!

united fans never leave the ground when were losing . hence the chant "man utd will never die" where do you think thats coming from ?

I beg to differ, seem to remember beating you at Anfield a few seasons ago and singing 'Always look on the bright side of life' as the Utd end emptied out sharpish!

i doubt it 
i would imagine that the situation is the same at anfield as it is at ot,great atmosphere for the big games,but west brom at home on a cold wednesday night,your never gonna get a great atmoshere at a game like that.

I'll let you know....we've got Brum on Wed night!
Saying that, its God's return so guessing it'll be a decent atmosphere!

again,it will be similar at both united and liverpool,i remember when we won 4-0 against liverpool when hyppia got sent off and loads of scousers left early.you get part time day trippers at all the big teams nowadays and they do leave early no one can deny that,but at united its not like the place empties with 10 mins to go

they started to leave from 80mins, as we sung that song for atleast 10mins until the final whistle. I think it was when we basically stopped any hope of you catching Arsenal or whoever it was.
