Personally I would like to see an end to segregation, I am convinced that the vast majority of people who do spend entire games hurling abuse 'across the barricades', wouldn't say boo to a goose if the target of their derision was sat next to them! An interesting point. Some years ago, I sat in what was then the Williams Stand and watched City lose 3-0 against Leeds - this was the game in which both James Wilson and Yannick Bolassie were sent off. Back then, away fans were housed in a corner of the old East End, and the Leeds fans were their usual charming selves throughout, hardly watching the match, just striving constantly to get past the line of Police and stewards and in to the end of the Williams stand next to them. I was sitting at the other end of the Williams, next to a couple of Leeds fans, both of whom were wearing their scarves proudly, and, in between denouncing the behaviour of their fellow Leeds 'fans', we were able to share an appreciation of outstanding performances by Robert Snodgrass and an even younger Fabian Delph. We shook hands as we bid each other farewell at the end of the match, although I have yet to take them up on their kind offer to join them for a future return fixture at Elland Road, having been disappointed at my last visit some 38 years earlier almost to the day.

In which case if the land on which The Memorial sits is preserved for 'Sport & Recreation' Wael & Co would have an impossible task in demonstrating that the covenant has been maintained since Bristol Rugby upped sticks and left.

weepywall Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 Not a chance of the Gas sharing with Bath Rugby if they redevelope the Rec, the only slight chance they may have of a ground share is if Bath Rugby were to move out of Bath and head Bristol way but that is exactly what Bath Rugby and all the pubs, restaurants etc of Bath city centre don't want to happen hence the ongoing battle to upgrade the Rec. They are more likely to end up back with Bath City at Twerton Park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are more likely to end up back with Bath City at Twerton Park. Totally agree. Bath Rugby have a huge uphill task with their plans. To add a "Football team "would raise opposition still further. I honestly believe that Bath Rugby are in a "no win" situation and their Chew born and raised owner will have to bite the bullet and pull the club toward an out of town venue that almost certainly wont be toward Bristol. With land prices at a prohibitive price in Bath, my belief is that they'll move to Wiltshire (where much core support lies). The Gas havent got any cash to put into the venture....and that leaves 'em in a very poor situation. The unfortunate losers in all this are Bath City FC...whose tentative enquiry about selling Twerton Park and playing at The Rec was swiftly rejected Edited September 11, 2018 by Sweeneys Penalties 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Public Transport is shocking, car parking is virtually non existent and the land space would need to be massive to accommodate everything they would need to (including parking), so I cant buy into the Saltford rumour. If the old Fry's site in Keynsham was still going begging, I'd have thought that it would have been just the site.....fitting the criteria that there is a railway station, it's a large site and there are plenty of pubs in Keynsham. That and the fact that Keynsham houses the council of Bath and North East Somerset. Its all conjecture of course, but if I had to pinpoint a site, I'd be looking toward Trowbridge (the training ground is in Farleigh Hungerford) or Chippenham for Bath Rugby... and The Gas have no business there at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
