    Who mentioned Marco Silva? We have not asked supporters to spend anything. Its simple, supporters bring something to wave.

    I shall be in Cyprus on holiday but will try and find it on TV somewhere. Last time we were there and there was a match on we just went into a bar and asked them to find it and they did. It will be nervewracking unless we can score a couple of goals early on. Just cannot conemplate going down. If we win on Saturday then for me Crystal Palace game is crucial, really need a win there so we don't have a nail biting finish as I am not sure my nerves are up to it.

    We should all contact the club with the message and ask them to spread the word too.

    There's no harm in this.

    What do people normally wear?

    It's more about bringing things you've got at home which are amber and black to enhance the atmosphere too.

    Any clappers you've got laying around from past games. Flags and scarves to wave. Even bring black and amber balloons to volley around the stands.

    They're trying to give us that something extra.

    I'll be sticking with shouting myself hoarse, supporting the team vocally , never rubbishing the players and not leaving before the end.
    My tried and tested formula of optimum support.
    Noise>visuals.

    The noise stuff is great to hear.

    The visuals are something extra the OSC are trying and we should support it.

    Paint your face as a Tiger, City Man. Come on :p

    I'm sorry I will join in the mauling action when we sing "Mauled by the Tigers", but painting the face is a no-no.

    Does it matter? They're trying to do something positive. That's what SHOULD matter.

    Actually, the OSC officer who came up with it, does not know who Obi is. I do and I have had many conversations about this sort of thing with him before, but we havent spoken about this weekend at all.

    We are not saying that our support lacks anything, just trying to do that bit more.

    I believe that this type of thing is just what the OSC is about. Enjoying supporting our team.

    I advocate supporter involvement at levels.

    You make very good point, "Some of us" I just want it to be "We have all".

    Jeans and a jacket (not an amber and black one)
    To be honest with the exception of HCFC fingerless cloves in the early 80's I've never worn colours to City*


    *Actually the one exception was when I wore my late Uncles City scarf at out first Wembley appearance. He'd had it since the 20's and I thought it (and he) deserved a day out there... and I was right
