supercidered

Been planning this trip for ages to tie in with a family birthday. 7 of us coming up from Devon on the Train. We were expecting an early kick off request and so left it as late as we could also bearing in mind possible / probable Train Strikes. The A&S Rozzers decide to make the request less than 3 weeks before the match day. Do they actually give any thought to anything? Please, please tell me there aren't any ridiculous Marches in the City Centre that they are trying to avoid. I will proper lose my sh!t if it has anything to do with this. Had to change all of the tickets and of course there was a fee to do so on each ticket.

So 29,914 isn't bumper enough then?

The game I reference in 1979, I think he left WBA to go to Real Madrid that summer.

I had to check this because I had only just turned 10 years old. The official attendance was: 29,914. The date was 17/4/79. Kevin Mabbutt scored: City 1 WBA 0

I remember beating West Brom 1:0 when they were one of the favourites to win the old First Division. We were really struggling. Shock. They had Cunnigham, Regis and Batson (known as the 3 Degrees at that time) I can't remember the exact season. I was in the open end with my old man. I think the attendance was about 37,000. Absolutely bonkers.

C'mon leave it out. Starting to sound like Rovers fans now.

Neil Warnock (insert name of choice) is a horses ass, he's the meanest he sucks a horse's penis, Neil Warnock is a horses ass. He looks like a horses ass, he smell like a horse as ass. Neil Warnock is a horses ass.

Blige. Someone is a tired little Pixie. Bless.

Happy days they were. I've still got a photo taken there of 3 generations of my family on a shelf in my office. Only 2 of us still alive FFS. Bloody young uns of today don't know they born. Shows how old I am. I keep repeating myself!

Got pretty rough sometimes but I loved it. It was the default place for any Family knees up. Sums up my family to be honest!

Here is another blast from the past. The Enterprise on the way up from Bemmy on the Hartcliffe Road.

Was that up on A38 towards the Airport?

Some of them were officially Grannies and they were only 32 years old mind !!

I'm not sure that is an appropriate choice of words these days RS, but yes it was !!

And the Parkside (Park & Ride)

Hope not.

Reminds me of the old Thursday nights at the Mauretania on Park Street. (probably lost on anyone under 50!).

F@ck me they can't get Yellow and or Red Cards right half the time. This will only make things worse!

If you did, I'm guessing it was 4 candles. (one for the kids).

We all know how bad the Evening Post is at pretty much sh!te at everything but one of the headlines from the G@s v Fleetwood match last night. Chris Martin gets sent off in 93rd minute of 4 minutes added time!! Trying to spin that being down to 10 had any bearing on being beaten at home by a second bottom team is staggering even by their standards.

Sometimes hope and expectations are aligned. Not in the case of Bristol City FC though. My hope is that before the turn of 2024 I can see that we made tangible progress and that we have improved as a team and as a club as a direct result to bring in LM and the 2 transfer windows. With a plan for the next stage of progress. My expectation is that I'm going to be disappointed.

Hope it's not an Omen but the last goal I saw Gillespie (I think he was a scouser?) score was away at Forest. We went 1 up and were giving it loads to the Forest fans only to get walloped 4:1. That was a mid week game as well.

What a brilliant question that is !! I think we all know the answer as well.

I didn't see that but that was probably because I had my head in my hands for most of the game! If there is bickering starting and elements of not making the required effort then that is a big worry. For all NP's faults and there were some terrible matches in his reign, I never saw a lack of effort from his players or any bickering at any point.
