Why? Because other teams sing it, so we follow what other fans sing.

50p, for 1st division football. And really quick getting out after the game. Did get wet in there, mind (when it rained).
-
No, no. Otib (Oldish, tired, irritable, blokes) demands to be told what exactly this protest is for, and will not give its approval unless or until more detail is forthcoming, than hitherto thus far ...
-
"Ultras" can. And do.
-
I can see it now, the lads up the Lions mob up and off they march brim full of protest and hope in their hearts, and coke in their veins, they walk on/down through the wind and the rain, and they arrive at the back of the Lansdown (after "greeting" the players). Steve leans out of a window high up in his ivory t ... er, stand: SL: "What do you want?" Mob: "Er, Pearson out." SL: "You can't demand someone out without putting forward a name to come in." Mob: "WarnockWilderDycheGerrardThatBlokeAtPlymuffCotts!"

It was a pithy comment, or an attempt at "pith," at least.

Warnock wishes he could have managed us
Bristol Oil Services replied to ExiledAjax's topic in Football Chat
No-one can manage us. Not at this level. We are unmanageable, in this division. -
Thought it was a wet, slimy thing in the sea

Steve told us not to, remember?* so we didn't. *After losing to Fulham at home, Steve was interviewed and told us off for saying "boo" and told us not to do it again, and to make our "noise" on social medias, so we said "yes, Steve. Sorry, Steve."

Yes, damp one of them as well
-
This squid is saturated already
-
I reckon this "Protest/March" will go the way of the Cornwall satellite launch overnight, and be a bit of a damp squid.
-
The one prior to 1982, I believe

Fer me, Gareth Bale was just Dave Smith from 89/90, only with overhead kicks and a top knot. Plus Luca Modric and Toni Koros and Sergio Ramos alongside him.
-
To misquote Homer Simpson then, SL is: "The cause of, and the solution to, all of Bristol City's problems" unless you think Steve is blameless in the ongoing, mounting debts?
-
He was on the "Today" programme, last autumn, talking about the crisis in rugby with two clubs folding, and said Bristol were "£50m in debt," can't go on like this etc. And that, as @Merrick's Marvels quipped, but the interviewer failed to put to Steve, is with a salary cap.

Average away followings so far this season
Bristol Oil Services replied to phantom's topic in Football Chat
Remember someone or other - @Huntstile Red, possibly - telling me he was in Cornwall once, Roseland Penninsula way and got chatting to a local who used to attend Ashton Gate in 76-79 (then stopped, for some reason). If we get a wriggle on and get to the top before the 'Muff we might tap in to some of that far South West untapped glory-hunting,fair-weather, "ooh ,look, it's a famous team/player," drop us like a stone once we're down potential support that we won’t have any spare seats for should the very unlikely actually ever come about. -

Bristol Oil Services replied to LondonRobin's topic in All Things Ex Players and Managers
Might it be why Pearson didn't come here in Feb 16, he was asked about the job here on 5Live on a Friday evening I think it was, and he gave a bit of a cryptic answer, saying amongst other things: "it's a big place (Bristol)," it was all but clear from this exchange that there was interest and contact, but we went down the "middle of L1, up-and-coming" route instead. We got Ashton and LJ, when we had players to "trade" and money to burn, when it would seem we could've had Pearson. And before he got seriously ill, too. -
That was the point of my outburst yesterday, we don't have any say in it! Nor does any of us "wishing" anything make a jot of difference. Steve is old, one day he will breath his last - what do we do then, pretend he hasn't died? Steve Lansdown and Bristol City isn't Tito and bleedin Yugoslavia! Fer frigs sake. Mind, he might be Alan Curbishley and Charlton Athletic. But there's nothing we can do. Steve is old, he will die (at some point), Jon won't take it on, someone else will. And if we go to pieces and drop like a stone, chances are we'll have enough about us to bob between the top half of L1 and the bottom half of the Championship for another decade or two. Just like we've always / mostly done. But in a better ground, with 27,000 seats.
