    Ashton Bridge is the pedestrian bridge next to the old tobacco factories on Cumberland basin.

    Not sure if its used by buses these days, not been there for ages.

    Yes, it was refurbished for the metro bus line. Cycle lane and pedestrian walkways created. best way to get to the Nova from Ashton Gate.

    There is an Ashton Gate metro bus stop just behind the developement where the bowling alley used to be, but they don't encourage any football passengers to use it.

    Don't understand why anyone would get so irate at crap products - anyone had one of those awful hot dog things, I did when desparate one game - being unavailable at Ashton Gate when there are literally dozens of quality pubs, bars, restaurants and takeaways within walking distance of the ground.

    Is it actually that difficult to go 2 hours without a drink or a snack?

    I's supporting the club through in house sales. Pie & a pint or a cup of Bovril is part of the day

    I was going to start this thread in Non-Football chat but thought it would get more attention on here.

    From my own experience in the Dolman concourse, the options of food and drink as well as waiting time, especially at half-time was worse than last season.

    The "Bear and Robins" outlet just inside the Dolman turnstiles has gone, now replaced be a standard outlet. They only had lager or Guinness on sale, no cider or ale option at all. They had no food for sale meaning if you wanted a pie and a pint you had to queue twice at two different outlets. The former outlet at the back wall of the Dolman concourse has been replaced by a doughnut shop! I would have thought that more suitable in the Upper Lansdown family area, not an area packed with thirsty blokes (& girls!)

    I know of others who gave up waiting as the service was so slow, and many people were still queueing when City scored.

    What was it like in the rest of the ground?
