No. But they've just thrashed a very good Villa side. I have no faith in either of the other two sides to beat them. Hopefully City get through and are desperate to give De Briyne a good send off and put a positive end on their dreadful session. This is all very worrying though.
In football, "tifo" refers to a choreographed visual display created by fans in the stands, often featuring large banners, mosaics, or pyrotechnics, to enhance the atmosphere and show support for their team. It's derived from the Italian word "tifosi," meaning "fans," and the tradition has spread from Italy and Southern Europe to other parts of the world.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Purpose:
Tifo are intended to create a vibrant and visually striking atmosphere before and during a match.
Design and Creation:
They are typically designed and created by ultras or supporter clubs, but sometimes involve the club itself.
Types of Displays:
Tifo can involve large banners, mosaics (where fans hold up colored cards to create an image), and even pyrotechnics (fireworks).
Why the Elvis lyrics? Manufacturing a new club anthem?
As well as being the oldest club in the world, the first club to be called the Eagles before Benfica stole it off them, the first club to wear blue and red stripes before a Spanish club stole the idea, in addition to this impressive history, Crystal Palace also gave birth to Elvis Presley. Specifically, Steve Coppell was his mother, and had a caesarean on the pitch at Selhurst during a 1-1 draw with Stoke City.
Just to add to the above, at the time of conception, Coppell is reported to have said to the father 'a little less conversation, a little more action, please."

It must have been nice for Steve to finally have a proper family though because as we all know "Stevie Coppell's illegitimate"
i have faith that man city will dish out a good beating in a similar way that man utd did to millwall - if the worst happens, the silver lining is that millwall become the only south london team never to have won a major trophy - its not ideal, but it will do. If they go up to the prem mind you, then i'm struggling to find any other silver linings, particularly if we fuck our promotion up. I'm sure the world will have corrected itself in a few weeks time and these potential tragedies will have passed.

But most of their fans won't be able to go as they will have school in the morning
Absolutely beyond belief.
Please tell me the opposition fans greet the appearance of these abysmal displays with a hearty "what the fucking hell is that" chant?
Remember when they took a disco ball into the Watford away end for its lighting effects?
I can't find the video, sadly.
