Obviously don't remember the 0-0 vs Bury on a Tuesday night with 7500 there. A certain young chubby Paddy Kenny in goal. Was Warnock the manager perchance?

Its good to see us bringing in the foreigners although they might have found this style boring. Good to hear. We now have tens of thousands of Poles and Spaniards living in Bristol long term, many of them settling here. These are 2 keen footballing nations, and City should do everything possible to attract these enthusiastic football fans to AG. If we're going to continue going down the European route when signing players then looking to Spain and Poland would make sense. I was surprised to hear my long term Italian hairdresser had attended the Stoke game, City's signing of Pisano being the key to sparking his interest in the club.

lgbbcf Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 on another note about attendance, i applaud the 280 Bolton fans that made the trip last night, i know we get a fair away attendance and i am usually one of them, but to travel that way on a tuesday for a team bottom of the league with not many points is dedication. they seemed in pretty good spirit and could be heard around the ground .

Lew-T Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 A mere 14,000 at Ipswich last night who are 5th! I wouldn't read much into it. I can't get to midweek games personally because I work away. 17,000 home crowd isn't bad going considering Bolton only brought 200.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winsaw Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 We had the 4th highest attendance in the championship lastnight, a very good effort concidering there where only 250 away fans so no big bump from visitors, Cardiff only got there big number as it was a £5 a ticket night so even though they had 10k more then us we will have made more money from the game which is far more use to the club, Let's not knock our self's a good effort all round last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nephew often brings a Spanish mate he works with,his team are a Spanish third division team,so not a very high standard,he's hooked and absolutely loves our football.It's worth remembering that not everyone in Spain supports the big boys.

Utter rubbish given the form we're in, the lowest we went in terms of home fans was 16,200 last season against Brentford. Is attendance the new thing to moan about while we are in good form?

He then went to sheff united and took Paddy with him. And yes it was dreadful I think we left half way through the second half. Highlight of the game was being sat behind I presume Kennys mother sticking up for him with the abuse about his weight getting chucked at him. Yes I remember it now. 98-99.. "Boring Boring Bury"chants- good to see some things aka his "style" of play stay the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always nice to see foreign fans at the Gate, warms the cockles of me 'eart. We should be looking at Poland and using Tinnion's links in Spain though, for sure.
