It's all one picture spread over the front and back page. I am unable to put it on here because it's exceeding the file limit, apparently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'The Ram' - I recall it lasted a few seasons. There were also the 'odd shaped' programmes which I've in my collection in the attic. Man City's was square and later 'landscape' & didn't Norwich's programme have an odd shape for a short time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in the Enclosure and could hardly see the Dolman stand, never mind the far goal mouth. Occasional ironic shouts of "offside!" or "man on". How we laughed I was right behind the goal at the Open End and as happened in those days the crowd was chatting with the keeper. My recollection is virtually nothing happened, there were large passages of play where one could vaguely see the outlines of figures toward the centre of the pitch apparently running around aimlessly. The only thing of note was the collective cries of "WTF" shortly before halftime when we all ducked as this orange object flashed our way. The ref and keeper had a conflab where the ref confirmed he switched balls about 25 minutes earlier and nobody at the Open End had a scooby that had happened. Anybody recall a similar game at Oxford (I think) which went the distance but us fans stood on the terrace for the best part of two hours staring into a white oblivion in the hope of seeing some action our end?

Remember both Oxford and Leeds. At both matches we only saw one half, even though the Oxford match lasted the full 90 mins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 I`ve got a complete set of home and away from the first Div 1 season right up to about 2010. I`ve even got a letter from Partick Thistle saying that no programme was produced for our Anglo-Scottish game up there. They`re all in storage boxes in the spare room and I know I should get rid but I can`t bring myself to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the video but the camera hardly shows the crowd. Always hoped to see myself, we had a shit little home made banner that we only did the outlines of the words.

Seen the bottom photo many times, but never seen the boy on the bench holding the banner before. He must be in his 50's now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin Soldier Posted January 18, 2021 Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 Some great photos, thanks for posting. This thread should be pinned by the MODs to ensure everyone remembers what Bristol City Football Club means. Compare it to todays club! Tom Ritchie, Donnie Gillies - what a side we had in those days.
