I think with such a big wall, it was far too big for just one artist.....and I'm guessing BCFC gave their brief to Upfest with this in mind. I'm also guessing it wasn't cheap. Upfest may have wanted more than one artist to share the rewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 I don't feel former mascot 'The City Cat' has ever been given proper recognition. No idea if the City Cat is still with us or not of he has gone to the great litter tray in the sky, but I think he should be included on the memorial. At the very least the person who had to out the suit on should get a mention. Apparently to keep the cats protection league happy, he had to have his knackers removed before he could start the job.

Bristol Rob Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Given that we seem to be stuck after Beryl and Buster in terms of club legends, maybe we should expand the scope of the list to include unsung Bristolian legends. I'll go with the bloke who used to hawk the Evening Post outside Dixons down Broadmead back in the 80s. Evening Post 3 Staaaaaaar. 3 Staaaaaaaar Evening Post. Dunno what his name was mind.

Unlikely to make the Ashton Gate mural, but I always remember admiring Oscar, a regular at Eastville who I am sure is a legend to our friends north of the river.
