TBW Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Anyone know anything on the book that was meant to be released alongside the Atyeo statue going up? All of us who put the £100 in included adding a few words to the book if I remember rightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they wouldn't have said 'there will be a book' unless there was going to be one. Guess the task of producing it is taking longer than imagined. Sure they will give a status update soon.

There’s no need for that Rob. Money isn’t an issue. It’s as simple as I’m not the one dealing with the book so wanted to get the correct info.

Busterrimes Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 On a slight tangent. Does anyone know whether another tranche if names will be added to the statue? I have just lost my mum and as she is the reason I started watching City I would love to add her name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatcham red Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Not for the want of trying! We are struggling for content. This from the meeting in April (the one you attended Rob): Appeals for stories have been made online via us and the Club’s media channels. It has not yielded many responses. MA has designed and printed a leaflet for distribution before the last 4 home games, help is need to distribute those. MK has agreed to place some leaflets in bars and restaurants around the ground. [action – MA and MK to arrange distribution] So we have done leaflets, emails, website appeals and only have a handful of contributions. It would be a pretty sad book if we published it at the moment unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatcham red Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 “Atyeo & other 'City Greats' at the Old Ashton Gate” A book with the above working title is also being produced and we are now collecting supporters’ memories and stories of the old Ashton Gate, memorable matches and outstanding players to be featured in it. You may have a special memory, for example, of a particular incident or of one connected with your family. As long as it reflects the working title we would be interested to hear from you about it. Rather than you writing your account down, we can arrange for you be interviewed by the editor if you prefer. Otherwise, simply send in your story to Mike Adams at blagdonmike@gmail.com or Bristol City Book, BCSCT, PO Box 3296, Bristol, BS3 9HD. Any accompanying photos would be especially welcome and will be scanned and returned. Mike is available on matchdays running the Programme Club next to the programme seller at the Winterstoke Road entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
