RedZepperin Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Bristol City travelled to London yesterday in the "Bristol Sport team bus". http://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/article/20140713-botsblog1-1751784.aspx Please feel free to add your own entries as we say a fond farewell (without kicking up too much of a fuss) to "Bristol City".

KBbcfc Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 So they're apparently using Bristol Sport branded bus that all teams under the umbrella can use, as opposed to the team taking an unmarked generic bus or using a bcfc branded bus that would cost a lot of money and would get very little use. Makes perfect sense to me. Well done bcfc and Bristol Sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT1970 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Sharing a bus with Bristol rugby makes good coomercial sense. Why have two buses when one will do? Maybe we could have no bus at all and they can travel on a National Express service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's great, not many teams outside of the premiership will have their own bus. Just another step in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtyseconds Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 The new "South Stand" could go either way. Walking from the Natch wall crapper to the Bristol Sport Superstore yeaserday it appears Bristol Sport was out logoing Bristol City early doors.

sodburyred Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 considering the normal team bus never had Bristol City plastered on it but Peter Carol, its an improvement? Spoke to someone who's been on the bus. It is as top of the range as you can get and meets all the specs for the leagues above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 As much as it smacks of modern business and doesn't seem to have anything to do with what we know and love, it all sits under Mr Lansdown's reign and he's gonna save cash where he can. As above, no point in having 2 buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Rizzle Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Makes complete sense! This is an 'upgrade for us'. Probably be higher spec than before as well as SL can invest in it as it will be used every week by us or the rugby. Question is, there are bound to be clashes with away travel, who gets priority City or Bristol Rugby? Or is there more than one branded coach?

richwwtk Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Question is, there are bound to be clashes with away travel, who gets priority City or Bristol Rugby?

Avalonred Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 I have it on good authority that Peter Carol have more than one coach available! Both teams can use the 'Bristol Sport' special but if they are playing away on the same day, can also use one of the 'normal' Peter Carol coaches..... maybe?

Once the Rugby lads have a little 'chat' with the football boys they'll 'buy-in' to their way of thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
