Port Said Red Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Even though it used to be my local in my formative years, I have only just thought of this question. What is the difference between a hen and a chicken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pezo Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Nige, where do you see the key deficiency in our squad that hold us back from being further up the table? Can you explain a fictional scenario where this deficiency happens and the impact it has on everyone? How do you go about addressing it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shahanshahan Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 I'll be there tonight. I probably won't ask a similar question to the one I did for a previous event earlier in the year (on Fixture Release Day). This question got read out & it was too awkward for anyone to answer properly... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all the years I’ve been going to games I’ve always felt that I was being ripped off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoTheCiderHead Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 I’m assuming no news is good news and the event is definitely going ahead tonight as originally planned? What with Nige’s COVID, I’d half assumed it was either going to be cancelled or just Richard Gould in attendance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely that's obvious. Ashton Gate is open 1/2 a day every 2 weeks for football. So perhaps a full day every 2 weeks including the Rugby. Try setting up another business with such a limited opening and try and keep prices low. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re straight talking guys - unlike Ashton who head was up his own ass and with utter distain to us fans. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This; When the ground opened fully, the prices were competitive. I used the Fan park and drank in the ground. Now it's back to the old school way. Drink in the Pub until we barely have enough time to get in for kick off. Not sure why they changed, could have been making a loss I guess. But IMO it's short sighted. Still we all have that choice, I prefer the Pub. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using your logic, how many pubs get 5 or 6 thousand customers (conservative estimate taking rugby into account) every couple of weeks? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted October 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Think most of the questions about prices are questions for Bristol Sport/Mark rather than something 'the football club' will care about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really an accurate comparison - people go to the pub to drink (and sometimes watch football), whilst people go to the stadium to watch football (and sometimes drink).

I've paid more than £5.30 in pubs in Bristol who are open 7 days a week. I don't think it's actually the worst. The reasons the likes of Wetherspoons are so cheap is because they bulk buy, plus buy it before it goes off. Realistically City are £1.50 more expensive, not 50%.

Bernard Lerring Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 The price of the pints is annoyingly high, but it isn't massively different to surrounding pubs. Need to make your peace with it or drink elsewhere Much more annoying though is when you end up getting one of the tepid ones that's been pre-poured for half an hour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second fan Q&A Nige has missed after taking a last minute pre season holiday when he was due to appear at the fixture release event back in June! Bit of an odd one tonight considering he's taking training tomorrow. Anyway, Bents will steal the show tonight. He talks really well and is quite funny too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
