  1. Me (Adult) and two others (u19s) have also moved from Dolman Central to South Stand (S24) simply because it is less painful financially. Looking at the latest seat availability there are a large number of Dolman Central STHs who have either not renewed or have moved to less costly seats (I’m loathed to say ‘cheaper’)! I would be surprised if we get past 10000 STHs next season.
  2. I’ve never seen another stadium with so much lighting in the stands. The circular lights above each of the exits in the Lansdown are just eye watering - yet nothing has ever been done to sort them out. Meh we’re Bristol City & we’re happy to tread water. Strange club.
  3. Apologies if this has already been asked & answered however I have been wondering what the score is with Jimmy Mann & / or his family not part taking in the the Ashton 8 celebrations? Is there a specific reason for this? It seems to have been brushed over somewhat by the club but there is one pic of the Ashton 6 plus I assume Chris Garland’s son in the changing room holding their shirts up whilst the Mann shirt is just left on the peg. All a bit sad really.

  5. What are all of the words for the 8 men had a dream song?
  6. Really poor from Jon Lansdown this week to be frank & Nige has rightly called him out on it. Nige seems to be a man of great integrity & I think he will feel personally let down by what JL has said or atleast with the way he has said it. Maybe the most worrying thing is the obvious delusion from the Lansdowns that this squad should be performing better. It’s like they still have no real idea of the utter ‘football’ mess we were left in due to their previous negligence & their failed trust in Ashton & their Golden Boy LJ.
  7. Strange goings on again here…. Why would anyone agree to a pre-scheduled appointment on the day of a game? Bizarre timing at the very least. Hopefully the big man is OK. Get well soon Nige.
  8. Simple. Just wait for everyone else to get on & then take the one remaining spare seat.

    Semenyo

    Semenyo will play for England - mark my words. Reminds of Rooney back in the day. Utter carnage every time he runs at defences.
  10. Utter shambles after the game today. It was almost as if they wanted the two sets of fans to meet face to face for a ruck. I have never seen anything like it. Whoever was leading that operation this afternoon is in the wrong job. Why is it that they don’t just keep the Away fans in the ground for 15 mins at the end like they used to?? Not exactly rocket science is it - although a sensible decision like that probably means less overtime.
  11. The conclusion I would draw from NP’s original wording & what has happened since is that Bentley is out of favour for something that has gone on behind the scenes. You just don’t drop your captain for this length of time unless there is something seriously wrong.
  12. Nah - I was sat right near Albert & he knew exactly what he was doing. He was told to throw it back to us & chose not to.
  13. Such a weird day with no match this avvo made all the more surreal seeing FB posts from Gas mates giving it the big one in The Heineken lounge prior to the rugby. Today is one of the first times I have genuinely felt like we have lost a significant part of our club because of Mr Lansdown’s Bristol Sport franchising. It would be just about bearable if our football team had actually got anywhere near the dream we were originally sold when the rugby club came on board. All in all I feel let down by how things have unfolded & the way SL put so much faith in Ashton.
  14. Hi All Just wondering how u18s will be expected to show that they are u18 on entering the ground without a COVID pass today. Particularly if they are say 16/ 17 but look over 18 etc… Thanks

    KP 45

    He seems like the sort of guy who loves the kudos of being a pro footballer without actually having the mentality & desire to be a pro footballer. He’s grown up being told & thinking he is the next big thing out of Chelsea academy & his head just can’t compute that he actually isn’t that good even at Championship level. He seems like a nice guy to be fair but then again most is on here would be lovely guys aswell if we were being given £1m per year to do absolutely nothing.
  16. It must be the game plan to be as shite as we can in the first half to lull them into a false sense of security.
  17. Based on the first 15 mins I can only see this ending one way.
  18. The advertising boardings were much better tonight - obviously the brightness was turned down compared to Saturday. However those spotlights shining straight into our faces / eyes in the Dolman Stand are an absolute bad joke. Whoever thought that was a sensible solution to a problem that didn’t actually exist to start with must be plain stupid. It was literally a struggle to see the pitch through the glare & I left the stadium with a headache - looks like I will either have to move stands or give night games a miss going forward. What is it with our club trying to fully light the stands when we all know the atmosphere would be so much better if the stands were darker?
  19. We got everything we deserved if the second half tactic was genuinely ‘to shut up shop’ against 10 men. Absolutely pathetic, spineless & desireless leadership.
  20. Tbh I’d rather we played someone else’s game - we would have more chance. Getting outplayed by 10 men ffs.
  21. Our leader sits in the stand about 50 yards away from where his players need him. Perhaps he needs to lead from the front on matchdays…..
  22. It sounds like we had players at loggerheads in the dressing room afterwards & some of them still don’t care enough about playing for this club. Easy targets in my opinion tonight would be Martin, James & JD. Additionally Palmer & O’Dowda came on to add fresh legs & actually made us less effective due to their rubbish work ethics.
  23. You only have took at Forest tonight & see they have much much better attacking players than us. They were a shambles defensively but we gave up attacking them in the second half anyway.
  24. The singing section at home is really poor in my opinion - certainly not helped though by location in the stadium. Such a limited, one dimensional set of chants with still no reference to many of the players. Yes there are a couple of decent ones but does JD need to be sung about so often just because they can’t think of anything for any else?! As someone said above - the S82’ers really do need educating on what good chants sound & look like. It’s a bit embarrassing when old guys like me have more idea than the Youth!!
