It's just that pack mentality isn't it. Thousands of people, if they're honest, are just like you and would sing along to all kinds of words they would never say as an individual to someone's face.

Definitely. In that moment you aren't actually thinking about the people who suffered or died; you're just trying to upset or anger the opposition.

Oh, it can be nasty and both sides do it. I've seen Liverpool fans get offended by songs about Heysel and Hillsborough who have no problems singing about Munich and vice versa (edited so I don't think I'm aiming at one team!). Hypocrisy is rife in football and it's not always the minority. I've sung some terrible stuff in the past and was surrounded by thousands doing the same. Too many people are quick to say "They aren't real fans". They absolutely are real fans, they're just real fans who will push that envelope of decency.

From Personal experience i can assure you your not the only one. Read a piece about the munich disaster. Very in depth. Re the plane the position of the wheels. All very relevant to the snow on the floor. Quite moving. Frank Swift a City legend killed in the disaster. Plus talking to me dad who remembers it as yesterday. Not mentioned Munich since. Ironically i got two tickets to the 50th ( i think) anniversary game at old trafford. The game was remembered as “ A City United”. It was moving. The football fans stood as one. It lasted all of 20 mins when me and lad got threw out coz lad cheered when we scored. It don't go down to well when your sat with the Utd lot. Still Got the memorial programme somewhere.
 
Kompany is no longer managing Anderlecht, after 4 games and no wins. He'll continue to play and captain the side. To be honest being a player/manager must be incredibly difficult. Trying to oversee the whole game tactically, while also focusing on your own performance, and his case, marshalling the back four as well! Bit crazy for him to take it on as his first management role I think.
