Lack of Action Man Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 I'd like to add that it's also been a big reason for my why I've not renewed because the group of people I sat with for 16 seasons got split up by the redevelopment. When you make that sort of friendship with fellow reds, it's sad to now bump into one group in the Dolman, one in the Ss and one in the Lansdown. Don't get me wrong, the redevelopment of AG is top notch - I love our new home. I just miss the closeness of the group of people I used to sit with. This is why I now quite enjoy away games - we've met up for some games (WBA last season was a highlight) plus it's a completely different experience. Of course there's nothing really stopping me finding new fans to bond with atAG - we're all reds after all. I just haven't been able to get a seat in a consistent location this season! Though I did enjoy a one game stint in the former "A" block of the Dolman. Some very funny blokes in there. So in short, I love new AG but miss the people. Not a moan as such, just reminiscing.

He / she usually posts just one or two lines - we never get a proper monologue. We never get the whole truth, what Aizoon REALLY thinks on any given subject.

City fan 1982 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Me and my lad would not renew, league 1 can be like the Rotherham home game most weeks, can't really face watching that. , especially is Johnson is still in charge.

Of course. I was generalising. The point is once a fan always a fan no matter which league or manager. There are lots of personal reasons not to renew but relegation should not be one of them. .

You can't pick and choose your support just because they have a bad season. You have to take the bad with the good. Exactly this. I overheard a conversation a year or two ago in Morrisons in Tavistock between two plastics, one a Man Utd `fan` and one so-called Liverpool. The latter asked the former what he thought of United`s season so far to which the reply was (in the broadest Devon accent you will ever hear) `I int bothering with `em this year, they`m rubbish`. Obviously I felt like slapping the pair of them but it made me feel proud that I support MY club through thick and thin in a way that actually means something. That pair of idiots will never know how that feels and I feel sorry for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSSEL85 Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Its quite simple for me, if we go down and Johnson is still manager, I will not renew my ticket as that is the only way I can really protest to the club. If we happen to have a new manager I will will renew whatever division we are in next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123456789000 Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 For me it depends on these things in the following order: 1) Manager 2) Price 3) Division. i.e. if we're in league one with a new manager and reduced prices then I'll renew, but if we're in league one being asked to pay the same and LJ is still in charge then I'll stay away. And the flip side of course if we're in the Championship paying the same price and LJ is still in charge then of course I'll renew but I certainly won't be happy about the LJ part.

I was just seeing people's opinions since this was last posted. As I feel the club should take notice of this . The 2 responses above say they aren't renewing someone of 40 years watching city . 40 years and doesn't want to go .

Pippintogg Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Why would you need a season ticket in league 1? 27,000 seats. All those 'A' catagory games against teams like Warsaw, MK Franchise etc. Certainly, won't have a problem getting in past the tumbleweed....and I have been a supporter for 46 years. Oh yes, and Wes Burns might be waving as he passes us on the way to being a Championship player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasbuster Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I honestly thought (somewhat naively admittedly), that we had said goodbye to L1 (maybe not forever, but for a long time, at least) when we got promoted this time around. Other relegations have been unpleasant; but this one will be the worst, when considering what has happened off the field. I will not renew if we go down to L1, as it represents abject failure.

Bat Fastard Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Most of you are miserable bastards!! Of course you will renew - and of course I will renew. Once an addict, it is hard to break away. Whatever happens, we will have a great squad and should be better equipped than in our last promotion campaign. I hope we don't go down, but if we do, my hope will spring eternal COYR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Well, my work requirements have changed (I have managed to get someone else to do it) but I won't be renewing. I will still go to some games, no doubt, but myself and some other fellow long-termers have had enough of the spin machine that is Bristol sport. Between 3 of us, that's 124 years of season ticket holders not renewing. It's a sad indictment of the modern day game. Older, mouthy buggers like us will never be PC, nor would I want us to be and if we want to shout our disapproval, we'll bloody well do it! Unfortunately, Mr Lansdowns' comment last week has been too much to take for us as a collective. Regrettably, it's a 'No' from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl&Toby Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I'd renew all 4 now. To support the club. What I'm not doing any more is giving that tucker Lansdown any more of my money. I'll buy the kids their shirts so they can show their support. But I'm ****** if I'm buying pasties, crisps, chocolate or cups of tea when I'm in AG again.
