Tim K Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I write this post just to say that I have nothing but admiration for those City fans making the long trip up to Middlesbrough this weekend - a bridge too far financially for me I'm sad to say, but to those of you who are making the effort, I sincerely hope that your trip is worthwhile and that the club does you as proud as you do the club. To make this trip on the back of Tuesdays horror show takes some balls - and I raise my hat to you all. Come On You Reds! Edit - hats of!? I mean off of course.

Tim K Posted January 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Not really - I paid for our tickets before the Cardiff game and also booked a hotel so it would be a waste of money not to go... (we'd have travelled regardless of Cardiff anyway... I think) Haha - it might well still take some balls to watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dollymarie Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I was intending to go before Tuesday, but having only today finally started feeling less gutted about Tuesday, I decided I couldn't put myself through the 5 hours each way drive.

Nogbad the Bad Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 If Hollowhead said it after Dowie then it was Dowieism plagiarism. If it was never funny in any way in the first place it was very likely an original Skeletorism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foghornred Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I say hats off to all those that went to Middlesbrough to support City after a 0-6 defeat is not easy. I have to admit that most supporters had booked before Tuesday but that takes nothing away from those that go week in week out. I looked around the car park before the coaches left and noticed that they were very few new cars in fact a lot of them did not look roadworthy they were that old. This tells me that most of these traveling fans put Bristol City FIRST and plan their lives (and finances) around Bristol City. So well done you traveling fans you are the soul of this club.

Thank you Foghornred. It was bloody freezing but I would like to say thankyou to the St.Johns Ambulance guys who gave my friend and I a lovely blanket to keep warm. Left Boro at 5 and we were back home at 10.30 after a short stop. CITY TIL I DIE......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Aldhelms Red Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Just got back from Newcastle. Great weekend ,only downside was having to watch the football. Hour and a half train journey at 5 miles per hour, freezing cold, and saw the worst performance by a proffesional footballer ever..... stand up Patrick Agyemang!
