Septic Peg Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Morning folks... and a happy 125th anniversary to the club! We all have our own personal memories attached to City - whether it attending with a parent as a kid, meeting a partner, creating friendships and making lifelong memories. I've said without the club, I actually wouldn't even be here as my parents met in the old Supporters Club in the Williams stand back in the day. My late dad only ever came to two games with me, a southern area league trophy win over Torquay and the LDV final win over Carlisle. Two games that even now, I remember very clearly and I won't forget. The club has also made a video about other people's experiences with City. It's about 25 minutes long so grab yourself a cuppa. Also, for a bit of fun, the club asked on social media for some of our choice moments. So if anyone wants to play along, here is what City wanted to know... Ahead of Saturday's 125th anniversary match tell us your: First match: _________ Favourite game: _________ Favourite all-time player: _________ Favourite season: _________ Best goal: _________ Biggest limbs: _________ #BristolCity Here's the twitter link so you can see what everyone else has put... just click on it and view the replies, you don't need to be logged into twitter. So, without mentioning today's kit, it's a momentous occasion. I only hope that the 8 men that saved this club are mentioned too. Without them, I wouldn't be typing this. On to today... Fulham at home. We've been a bit of a bogey team for them in recent times. In fact you have to go back 3 years to find the last time Fulham beat us. In the last 7 games, we've beat them 5 times, drawn once and lost once. Our home form is still shocking and Fulham have been on the up (apart from a 3-0 loss at home to Barnsley) so I'm expecting a pasting. 3-1 Fulham. Bristol's own Joey Bryan is out with a baddy leg so no run out for him but Bristol's own Bobby (De Cordova) Reid is expected to play for Fulham. Come home Bob. We love you. Enjoy the day folks.

BobBobSuperBob Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Not sure that Fulham being Fulham , we actually couldn’t have better opponents today , in a hope we can ignite some form , particularly home form If we are ‘at it’ I think we will turn them over COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norn Iron Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Am I too old and therefore BCFC's Best Limbs question is for one 'down wiv da kidz' street lingo? I like the vote for Mansfield Away. Limbs flying in the tunnel and tired limbs behind the goal from too much clapping etc.. It must also be my best away match of all time. Please note Crystal Palace ground for the FA Cup Final doesn't count as I'm not that old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 I will not be there today because my wife is asthmatic and I'm no spring chicken at 77 in a couple of month's. Due to the coronavirus, we are keeping outside trips to crowded areas to an absolute minimum. It may be a bit early but may be more sensible than waiting for the outbreak to become more significant. I'll be there in spirit and cheering them on silently, living every moment while listening to RB. COYREDS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daored Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Does anybody know who the sky studio guests are ?

Not for me Mitrovic will take some containing, as will Bobby. Interested to see who starts at CB out of Kalas, Williams, Baker or Benkovic. Maybe all 4. Maybe none of them. Who knows.

Cider red Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 To be fair; I would have picked something similar, 4 5 1 makes sense as Fulham are strong in midfield, not sure why he has reverted to it now when we could have done with an extra man in midfield about 6 games ago mind! Would possible put Eliason in for Odowda; other than that it's not a bad side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Hope it will be a good day for us Citysupporters. We were ok vs Millwall, think and hope we will be better today. Its a special day and I would love to see us win. Eliasson and Wells from start, COD on bench. Have had great days and bad days as a City supporter. Went to Weymouth with 3 others a couple of years ago. met Gery Gow. nice man. 3 july 1970 Holstein Kiel- Bristol City 0-2, Garland scored twice, my first City game, vas 13 at that time.GG told me he had his first contract then and he was playing that game. over 40 years later we meet in Weymouth, think it was GGs and mine first City game. That is amazing and wonderful. COYR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
