EstoniaTallinnRed Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 According to Yahoo Bristol's population is 380,000, where do they get this from? Wiki says estimated 2016 at 449,300, Yahoo can never get their facts right! Anyway some of the 11 are very surprising, surely there are bigger cities/towns who have never been in the prem. https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/photos/picture-this-the-11-largest-cities-that-are-yet-to-experience-premier-league-football-1475052020-slideshow/p-bristol-city-came-within-p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We love Bristol, but 'it's a bit shit'. Nice bridge, a rusting ship in the docks, and the stigma of slavery. Yep: we are shit. Uncle TFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EstoniaTallinnRed Posted September 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 And just what do you think I have been doing in my 71 years, a hell of a lot more than you will ever do Sonny Jim! I think it's about time you started to have some respect for members on this forum, as you are always making snidey remarks here. Don't you think it's about time you grew up? OH! and BTW , i worked 11 hour days for 4 days a week for 15 years, so it's nothing new to me and it didn't make me act nastily to people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
