    there is a skysportsnews report on right now in the build up to the 2012 euros all about "doing the poznan", there was one particular bit where they said this:
    "It might have been started in Poland but the poznan is being picked up closer to home; manchester city fans do it, Ireland fans do it and celtic fans also do the poznan"

    I was literally about to be sick. ITS THE * HUDDLE!!!!.

    I'm afraid the Poles have had it before us. It is "the poznan" but it can always be renamed the huddle for sensitive souls like yerself ;) lol

    It's actually called 'grecques' or bouncing backwards joined together.

    City are a pathetic excuse for a club. No history, no tradition, no class, a completely soulless waste of time.

    Its not the poznan or the huddle and wasnt started in Poland. It's been done for years by fans in loads of countries and others have just copied it.

    Celtic were probably the first team from the UK/Ireland to do it when we(or the Green Brigade) started it about 6 years ago and we called it the Huddle. But we never done it in huge numbers inside the Ground(although I do remember a top drawer Huddle at the exit of the Nou Camp, must have been atleast 3,000+ tims all piling in doing the huddle as the Spanish Polis were standing clapping and videoing us lol) Man City done it in big numbers at a match after copying Poznan fans and that really mae us start doing it again more regularly and in even bigger numbers as before this season rarely more than a few hundred or couple of thousand would do it, now its 10s of thousands and full stadiums/away ends.

    I can see how the English call it the Poznan though as the English team that does it calls it that and they probably never knew we already done it as it was never that big.

    Not interested in the Huddle or what happens in England. They can call it Mary Poppins for all I care.

    Up here its the Huddle. End.Of.

    The Huns know what it is.
