  1. Well this is what I will be doing.

    1) I won't be going

    2) I will register to purchase ALL match day tickets from FIFA and England supporters club.

    only to see how unpopular the games will be with no intention of buying any,

    and In the hope of getting a constant flood of e-mails saying tickets available for XXXXX games.

    3) I will watch Englands games,not watching England will not prove anything

    4) Will  not purchase any of the sponsors products

  3. Of course not.

    Bristol City are one of the four teams in the championship that have the furthest to travel this season.

    I am a supporter of short distances for the planned FIVE away mid week games,

    and long distance match's to be played on Saturdays, WHEN the fixtures are FIRST published.

    PLEDGEBALL want Football followers to try and reduce their football carbon footprint.

    Nearly 3,000 City fans went to coventry fans attended the game against Coventry on Saturday

    I think approx ten coaches took fans to the game,correct me if I am wrong,and approx one hundred fans were on the first available Birmingham to Bristol train

    That equates to approx 2,500 City went by car, and if each car took two persons that 1,250 cars were used to attend the game.

    Maybe  football train specials could be started again(FREE OF CHARGE) subject to all passengers buying their match day tickets in advance.

    See all you hoardes at Sheffield and Hull etc.

  4. Was a spin doctor at work for the match against Barnsley.

    Thinking to myself,

    I thought some one might have said why don't we employ a white witch to rid us of this home hoodo at the begining of the season.

    BUT,

    then said lets wait till they (Bristol City)play a very weak team and they held off till the Barnsley game

    When the spin doctor/s could have picked Bournemouth or Nottingham Forest

    If either of the two goalmouth (four shots scrambles) that Barnsley towards the end of the game had gone in,some ones  credentials would have looked very different
