Sir Geoff Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 2 hours ago, Betty Swallocks said: No because the question was “Tomorrow is going to be the biggest attendance, since......?” So when was last time we had a bigger attendance than what is going to be there tomorrow? Hull last season was less than tomorrows attendance so no, your answer wasn’t correct. But tomorrow's will be the biggest since....then as there hasn't been a bigger attendance since then. Technically correct. Pedantic I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pezo Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 3 hours ago, bris red said: The upper Lansdown should have been built with segregation in mind to be honest. Other clubs manage to do it so not sure why we can’t or why it couldn’t be explored as an option. It wasn't designed with segregation in mind because the thought process would be why would you put away fans in the newest nicest area of the ground. Do you know it hasn't been explored as an option? It's fairly simple as a thought exercise to say how do you get 5k away fans (think about worse case scenario and were playing Cardiff or Rovers) up there and how do you get them back out again without getting in the way of home fans e.g. if they are coming out of the Atyeo end of the Lansdown you would have to make all the home fans walk towards KFC at the end of the game and creating barriers like that attracts ideots that want to shout abuse at the away fans and it causes confusion for non regular home fans who came in one way but now need to find a different way home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the EE has been gone, most of the old songs have now gone. 12345…. Smell my fingers…. Cider in a can…. Who are the people… I do miss the fun of it all. It’s all pretty generic now whenever I get a chance to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do we get that , Guess we need to start winning and not leting late goals in Coventry out sung as last season for the full 90, they didn’t stop once. Best home atmosphere I’ve seen in years.

Wanderingred Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 So is this a sell out or a “sell out”? Presumably, given all the health and safety restrictions, the crowd will be around 25k rather than the Gate’s actual capacity of 27k..

Whatever way you look at it there’s no tickets left, it’s not like the Rovers “sell out” last week where the ground was only three quarters full Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zookeeper WSM Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 9 hours ago, harrys said: I don’t know about that, 5000 more home fans than last seasons opener with all the merchandise/food sales that go with that, anyway, I’m not suggesting they do it for every game but if they did it wouldn’t bother me despite the fact I have a season ticket, that was my point I agree and I think the fact that it’s the season ticket holder that can bring the mates at the discounted rate works well. It’s a benefit to the ST holder to have the option to bring a mate along, so doesn’t devalue the season ticket I don’t think - certainly wouldn’t stop me getting mine. Id like to see them do it much more often if the commercials stack up - ie, the extra beer, food etc sales outweigh the missed full price ticket sales. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCGav Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Disappointing atmosphere. Only good after our equaliser. Hard to get involved when no one around you is singing (Dolman). You feel like an idiot singing alone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I came to the conclusion a couple of seasons ago that the atmosphere at Ashton Gate will never be any good again. Hence why I moved from the ‘singing section’ to the family stand. Just wasn’t worth my efforts and my sore throat every week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfOfWestStreet Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Don't want yo be that guy but the atmosphere at Ashton Gate died with the east end. It's a very sad place to watch football and 9/10 of our fans are absolutely useless and a waste of a seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
