Lewisdabaron Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) Gutted to hear this. I remember voting for him to be mayor. One of the funniest blokes to ever grace AG & the surrounding pubs. RIP Stoney Edited July 24, 2022 by Lewisdabaron 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted July 24, 2022 Admin Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Absolutely gutted to hear the devastating news that Stoney Garnett has sadly passed away. He was genuinely one of the nicest people who you were lucky enough to meet, he'd always say hello and tell us a funny joke at the football. But he was much more than that, he'd always speak if you saw him away from football and he was often known as Mr Bristol City. Thoughts with all of his family and friends on this very sad day I'm sure that I will not be the only person raising a toast to him today RIP 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 RIP Stoney. Seeing him and his hat was part of the ritual of going to a City match which is why he was called Mr Bristol City. He would've made a brilliant Mayor. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 75 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 City through and through. RIP Stoney . Condolences to his family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Not many folks deserve the moniker "legend" but that man did. There can't have been many supporters who haven't encountered and shared a joke with Stoney in the ground or in the pubs of south Bristol. He was City through and through and what a character. My condolences to all family and friends. We've really lost a good 'un. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamdon Mart Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Really sad news to read this morning. First met Stoney about a decade ago when his grandson started playing for my youth football team. He'd come along and cheer him on, all the while his encouragement would be interspersed with gag after gag after gag. A lovely guy that would do anything for anyone. Think there was an urban myth that one game he was refereeing his own team and he headed them a last minute equaliser from a corner (or something similar). A very sad day for local football in general. Love and best wishes to the family, all of whom are massive City fans. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRaw Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 RIP Stoney. Echo what others have said….always saw him in and out the pubs in town and around the ground on match days, always up for a conversation and joke. Deserves a place on the mural in the ground 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Team Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 What a City legend. One of if not the most iconic City supporters. An absolute gentleman and hilarious too. Always raised a laugh on the bus after games “Mardyke!!” and a regular home, away, flag days and City pubs. Proper legend, RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Very sad news, RIP Stoney. One thing you can say, he had a life well lived. 'Free cider for all' was one of his election pledges 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolman Original Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Worked with Stoney in the 70s. He was also on the door of the players bar in the 1st division days. More mates than players in there sometimes! Still always made it a point to shake hands and tell me his latest joke whenever I saw him. RIP Stoney.

ralphindevon Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Part of the Bristol City fabric for as long as I’ve been supporting City. It will be odd not seeing that red hat, home and away. RIP Stoney. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westred1 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Remember him pulling his hamstring as a Lino in a Chairman’s match my dad played in in the late 90s Went down like he’d be shot! Proper sad news. Certainly livened up matchday. Thoughts go out to his nearest and dearest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sglosbcfc Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 I would hope the club would mark his passing in some way, a photo of him in the iconic red hat before kick off v Sunderland. He has to be one of the most well known of City supporters. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
