  1. Lower tier at Loftus Road is great.
  2. Depends what you’re after, but if you want a proper Bristol pub experience then pretty much any of these on East or West Street: Little Grosvenor, Barley Mow, White Hart, Jolly Colliers, London Inn, Three Lions. The Masonic also on North Street. A pint in most of those will also cost about £3.50, sometimes less. Otherwise I’d echo others who have recommended The Mardyke, The Bear and The Merchants Arms which are all great pubs.
  3. Elland Road, Portman Road, Carrow Road and The Hawthorns are probably my favourite ones from the current Championship. St Mary’s, The King Power, The Ricoh, The Riverside, The Liberty and The New York are all equally crap generic soulless bowls, though at least some of them are fairly centrally located.
  4. They go on the website in batches so it won’t be anywhere near that figure.
  5. Fans in ‘mid-league’ know all about promotion races in this division as most of us have been there before. We were top of the Championship going into April in 2008 with 5 games to go. Only picked up another 4 points, including losing a crunch clash away to Stoke and missed out. It’s not a foreign concept to us.
  6. Funny you say that as I thought they were louder and much more behind their team than we are at home, despite their horrendous form. We also barely made a peep until we scored. After the goal we were good, but certainly didn’t outsing them easily all afternoon.
  7. Away fans are treated exactly the same at Ashton Gate (as it should be). Same at most grounds around the country really, only ever really remember militant stewarding at West Ham and Watford in recent years. Most clubs just decide it isn’t worth the hassle I think, but it’s the opposite with home fans.
  8. Pretty much impossible to have a worse first half than Swansea, but I thought we were poor first 45 today as well and it bared a lot of resemblance. Slowly grew into the half as it went on but we were really quite fortunate to go in 0-0, Plymouth very wasteful. Looking at the stats we mustered up just the 1 shot in that first half. Second half we have pretty much battered them before and after the red card, and should’ve won more comfortably in the end. Only criticism was taking off Mehmeti whilst he causing all sorts of problems to replace him with Cornick, their right back must’ve been relieved.
  9. Sadly not, intentional but replaced by the following:
  10. The club’s professionalism shines through again. For anyone not clued up with internet ‘slang’ that means ‘**** my life’. Pathetic.
  11. As memorable as that season was I’ll be delighted if we never have to play another LDV Vans/Johnstones Paint/Papa Johns/Checkatrade trophy game again in our history.
  12. I completely disagree. If someone makes the effort to attend multiple away games in the current season vs someone who has only bothered to cherry pick in the last 30 years (probably Liverpool, Man City, West Ham), then they should absolutely get priority. It’s their fault for never making the effort to attend more away games. Your proposal also massively favours older supporters, how can an 18 year old have built up 30 years of loyalty?
  13. I would imagine many people refer to the whole area as that because “Singing Section” is beyond cringeworthy, and everyone knows what they mean anyway. I just use Standing Section personally.
  14. Crazy to have lumped the “singing section” in with the rest of the South Stand on this decision. Swansea game aside, those blocks are full every week and the club are well aware that demand far exceeds capacity. No upside to having general sale tickets available there, and it will only cause further issues with people buying tickets to sit in their correct seat unaware it is unreserved. Blocks S25-S27 should absolutely be made available to move into during the seat move period for any fans that don’t renew.
