  1. I’m glad I’m not the only one . The one tthat gets me the most is the people who love Bobby Reid who’s from Bristol but supports Liverpool and jumped ship at the first chance possible to Cardiff , such a tinpot mentality from our fan base .
  2. I don’t mean to offend but why does anyone care about Marlon pack . He left and went to the only rivals we’ve had for the last 20 odd years . I don’t think you’d find another club who would keep ranting on about ex players who left them to go to a rival club ( for example Bobby Reid and pack) .
  3. Happy that city won and we got another three points on board but all we’ve done today is paper over the cracks . Our performance today was horrific and unless there’s a big change in structure at this club we might as well give up hope of ever having a decent season at this level .
  4. Don’t expect any atmosphere whatsoever today (like normal ) . Haven’t seen a league game this empty since the rebuild from my memory.
  5. I wouldn’t say it’s a very small minority anymore , especially the last year or so . Don’t get me wrong they’ve redeveloped the stadium nicely for concerts and business events but to us fans it’s surely on the pitch that matters . As a city the size of Bristol we are without a doubt the biggest under achievers in British football even dare I say it in Europe . I personally am happy to take the risk of those morons selling up and someone else giving it a go . Everyone is entitled to their opinion as fans of the club but I just don’t understand how anyone can still get behind that ego driven and incompetent family we have in charge at our club .
  6. Back him whats the point of getting a new manager when nothing will change until the Lansdowns sell up .
  7. Had to pay the victim £13,000 as well. Am I the only one who thinks that’s low and would want much more if someone of his financial status broke my skull ? .
  8. Absolutely grim People have said for a while the fa cup had lost a little magic and now after that announcement it’s completely gone , will be about as popular as the league cup in a couple years .
  9. It’s not that hard . My mates from Wiltshire are Leeds fans who have only been to one away game all season and one home but they got 10 tickets in the away end tonight .
  10. Think radio bris said we have a better defensive record than Ipswich and maybe Southampton if I heard correct . I was angry when Pearson was sacked but from what I’ve seen glimpses of we should be near a decent season under manning .
  11. The flat atmosphere at the gate has always been down to out fans not having a whole end behind the goal to stand . When it was the eastend it was only half the stand and the same with the atyeo . With the ground the way it is the only suitable option is to make the south stand standing like what Cardiff have with their canton end . Offer season ticket holders in the south stand tickets in the Dolman and lansdown , those who say no shouldn’t complain about having a poor atmosphere.
  12. As far as I’m aware I have no road works on me
  13. During the play off finals the commentators kept mentioning he was gonna be out of contract and I remember thinking I really hope we go for him as he was a solid top 10 rb/rwb . When he signed for fgr I was shocked , what a fall from grace so quickly.
  14. This wasn’t great but still loads better than the camera positioning we have now .
  15. The only thing we need is new owners and until then nothing will change .
  16. Been a horrible start to the year for me but that equaliser brightened everything up . I couldn’t make it today so had to watch the game through the bet365 app , credit to every single one of you that went as the noise from the away end sounded deafening.
  17. Best place for you would be E34 in the Dolman or in the south stand , both areas are away fan friendly.
  18. Spot on , it wouldn’t be any different to where fans stand at Villa and Leeds so I can’t see any excuse about fans being in the way stood up in a and b block .
  19. Having a horseshoe shaped concourse has nothing to do with the south stand having safe standing and away fans still being in the atyeo . Just because people are stood trying to create an atmosphere in a stadium full of people sat on their hands doesn’t mean their coked up . I’ve never sniffed anything in my life but I’d rather stand and get behind the team than sit in silence freezing for 90 minutes.
  20. I’m sorry but how do other clubs manage then ?. The amount of stewards in E34 and section 82 when there’s nothing to segregate could be much better put to use in a different ground lay out . There must be about 20 stewards stood on the steps in E34 just in our fans faces all game even though their just stood trying to create an atmosphere.
  21. If we’re gonna give away fans the whole atyeo then we should have the south stand for safe standing . Until we have an end behind the goal where fans can make noise ( like 90% of other clubs ) nothing will change . People can keep moaning about people making new threads for this topic but it needs addressing . If we just accept things how they are then nothing will change , almost like other things at this club ( club shop , Bristol sport , boardroom decisions) .
  22. Use to make me cringe seeing the Bristol city v Liverpool billboard and the korey smith v united one . Nothing wrong with looking back at fond memories but even league two clubs don’t have things like that up in the concourse.
  23. There’s definitely a tin pot mentality that runs right through the club from boardroom to fans . It started to get better under Pearson but unfortunately that’s come to an end . If you didn’t know much about football you would of thought we had won the fa cup and league cup the way some out of fans bang on about a win against man united and Liverpool . We’re a big city and a huge catchment area yet as a fan base we don’t have the ambition that a football club in a city our size should . As an example here are some clubs from places with a similar metro population, Athletic Bilbao , Valencia , Nice and Newcastle.
  24. Tbf it’s nothing to do with how many French are in London and all down to how the psg shirt over the last few years had been seen as a fashion statement . Unfortunately last couple of times I’ve come to Bristol I’ve seen more psg and Real Madrid Shirts than City or Rovers .
