    No it wouldn’t make any difference because of the acoustics in the Atyeo. The SS in particular isn’t suited in the same way and any sound created by S82 is dissipated upwards. My seat the Lansdown is almost diagonally to S82 and although we can hear them pretty well, louder sound comes my left where the away fans are. Even a relatively small number can make quite a din. 

    People in the Dolman or Lansdown don’t tend to get involved in singing/chanting. They never have in my experience.

    B block in Dolman when we were kicked out of the East End used to make a racket. The old Williams did'nt apart from right at the front in the standing area if memory serves me correctly.

    it would make a whole lot of difference if the South Stand (one reason why i hate the rugby. it should be named after a former player) right smack behind the goal made a noise. it has always been tradition with the vast majority of clubs up and down the country

    Following on from watching the NP press conference on YouTube I made the usual mistake of clicking ‘recommended for you’ videos. City v Swindon in “that” game back in the season when Swindon won promotion in November or whenever it was.

    Anyway, the Atyeo was 3/4 full of City fans and it got me thinking about (again) about why we give such an advantage to away teams by giving up the whole stand when we really don’t need to. It was amazing to see the difference in atmosphere with City fans in the Atyeo and Swindon confined to a corner of it.

    The club really should look at this, we need our own fans back in the Atyeo, you can easily have a divide between supporters, nearly every other team in the football league with a stadium our size has such.

    @JerrySLOplease investigate and report back 

    We don't give the whole stand. That stupid netting is across the front.

    And besides why take away good atmosphere? It's bad enough as it is.

    If our lot didn't rely on Section 82 on making a noise and sang themselves it wouldn't make any difference how many were in the Atyeo

  3. Well if he could do all the things you want as well as shot stopping he wouldn't be here. 

    Call me old school but I prefer my Goalkeepers to protect the goal. That's what they are there for.

  4. FFS settle down some of you. Typical response on here. Too quick to shoot down anyone's comments.

    It's got sod all to do with Pearson or the last two defeats.

    Just a highlight he mentioned us. An intersting and entertaining podcast.

    I dont care who it is. Its nice when any manager looks favourably at our club

    Collect them at Derby only option I believe.  

    FFS. Ive been so busy it went out of my head.

    It is my fault but what irritates me is on the confirmation email it says nothing about being sent, collection or print ticket

  7. Warnock was brilliant. People forever slagging him off over his antics and often accusing him as a "Bad Sportsman"

    but i'll tell you what.He has worn that tracksuit, with that clubs crest on his chest at every club he's managed. The man cares

    I'll miss him and i'd have loved to have seen him with us because he was a determined winner

  8. I never like this Bristol Sport nonsense and ive never liked the Rugby wedged in with us.Or even poxy basketball.

    "Ooh he's built us a stadium". No he built a stadium for us to use..along with his Egg chasing lot.

    I still maintain if we had an owner that concentrated fully on football, with a Chairman that is what he is supposed to be, we'd be in a better place. Very much doubt it would be Premier League but a lot better than the Bollocks we are getting now.

    30 mins gone, and apart from winning a couple of fouls from contested headers, Martin still not touched the ball.

    Shouldnt be on the pitch full stop. I just don't get why he is picked. Target man? The bloke cannot jump.

    Add the fact he has a heavy touch and cannot run to save his life.

    Well, we’ve a redeveloped ground and a new training ground and a team that’s been in the Championship for the last seven years. A while back, we got within one match of the PL for the first time since 1976. On average, we’ve done ok compared to our history. My feeling is ‘be careful what you wish for.’

    I also can’t help the feeling that there’s someone somewhere who might have done better than 28 defeats in 52 games.

    forget the bloody stadium. Always gets brought up when the Lannsdowns get questioned. its not even ours ffs. We get to play in it.

    Nothing more. We just get to use what is part of the Sporting legacy that includes the sodding rugby and basketball
