Bit of a blanket statement , the ones I've seen have been pretty varied in music and talent. Yeah not all great, but not all bad. I prefer the DJ's but it does add to the atmosphere , thought the last one was OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went in there for the first time in many years to watch the Brighton match. Very pleasantly surprised to find Timothy Taylors Landlord on hand pump. That'll do for me.

WhistleHappy Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Give the Avon Gorge Hotel (near Clifton suspension bridge) a go if you've got time.... & want to be ' in the know.' You never know what City faces you might come across in there. Keep an eye out for the landlord Curbishley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems Aaron's musical taste is restricted if most other music is "horrendous"......,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, always went in there before the redevelopment or sat on on the wall on Natch Hill with a few cans from the corner shop. Haven't t been in there for a while now.

I think if you wear a blue and white quarters shirt, the drinks are free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich VFR Posted August 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Thanks to everyone for the recommendations. Got to the ground fairly late so literally had to get a quick Heineken, down it and head in. Walked into the city after to meet the good lady and stopped off in King Street which had some great beers on offer as well as a male choir. It did involve walking through the away support which was 'interesting' but a friendly copper asked to see my shirt and then directed me on the right path. Very impressed with the ground and has changed massively since my last visit. I will definitely be coming again. To the sceptical contingent... my 'friend's' all drive straight to the game from Burnham on Sea so do not usually head into the ground via the city. Stadium is certainly one to be proud of and I look forward to coming again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
