BristolBEAT Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Just watched the extended highlights and saw the top row of the city fans doing the Poznan. Eastend get that started at Hull! Would look better in the Atyeo, but bet the Eastend could do it well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristolBEAT Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 It's pathetic. My god how open minded and exciting are people from Bristol, especially City. I think everyone needs to go away for a year just as I have for 3, to fully appreciate and have passion for my city. And before others shoot this down. People from Manchester - Proud. People from Leeds - Proud, People from Liverpool - Proud, People from Newcastle - Proud (Just to name a few). This forum criticises only and is never optimistic.

However be prepared to be told you blindly follow the clubs line, live with rose tinted glasses, are a happy clapper etc!!! We have loads to be optimistic about. A good core set of players, clearly one or two will be moved on as their contracts expire to make way for competition in a few areas. But I'm startin to get quit optimistic about Wilson, Ribeiro and the others starting to force their way ino the first team squad as well...We are not as far off as some would like us to believe and we have a benefactor (SL) who will ensure finance will remain available...It took Alan Dicks ten years to build a promotion winning team, I personally think that KM might have one in a lot less than that...keep the faith!

BristolBEAT Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Even if it isn't people's favorite choice. Why do the majority on this forum critise and shoot down every suggestion given.

Bristol is a fine example of how little the middle class think of the game of football. A massive City with a pitiful following. Burnley for example is a small town, but the community focus is their football team, same as Stoke etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Man City copying another teams thing was cringeworthy enough. Us then copying them takes embarrassing to a whole new level Almost every country including and East of Germany use this jumping 'style', Man C were the first in the UK.

Matty-H Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I prefer doing the Eastend.

Im optimistic. Wilson and Ribbs will be like 2 new signings. Hope Ribbs will be fit next season. Woolford can only do better next season. If we can do the defence well next season I think we have chance to be top six. COME ON YOU REDS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Ferret Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 All football chants and stuff are copied and go around the grounds eventually Even that Crystal Palace chant "We like it , We like it, We like it...." one they nicked from non-league fans who in turn had nicked it from German football fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T R Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Remember when everyone said Doncaster copying the Bounce Around the Ground thing was shocking. Same applies here. surely its a good thing other teams are using our bounce song. shows that we actually created a decent chant, we should only welcome others to use it. the song "city bounce around" was good at derby, seemed to last alot longer than it usually does at the gate.

havanatopia Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 You cant compare the passion in the North of the country compared to the South, they're worlds apart. Bristol is a fine example of how little the middle class think of the game of football. A massive City with a pitiful following. Burnley for example is a small town, but the community focus is their football team, same as Stoke etc. Yes but let's be frank; what else does Burnley have? Not a lot. Whereas Bristol is a bastion of Rugby down the years and is a fabulous city with loads of things to do and see and a great quality of life. If a small band of east Enders want to celebrate a goal by turning round, joining arms and bouncing then good luck to them although I personally think it's a waste of a good celebration by the players; I'd much rather look at a nice green pitch with our players going beswerk than the back of someone's dandruff head.

Harry Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Man City copying another teams thing was cringeworthy enough. Us then copying them takes embarrassing to a whole new level Ever been involved in an atmosphere at a football match matey? Mostly it involves singing one, some, or many of the following ditties : Come On You Reds City Til I Die We're By Far The Greatest Team We Love You City, We Do Come on City, Come On City EIEIEIO Up The Football League We Go Red Army, Red Army Lets Go F'Ken Mental Keep The Red Flag Flying High You Are My City, My Only City The Reds Are Going Up The Gas Are Going Down If You All Hate Bristol Rovers You're Not Singing Anymore Cheerio Cheerio Cheerio The Referee's A Winker etc etc. Anyway, without wishing to labour the point, I can quite confidently say that Bristol City Fans did not make up ANY of these songs which we rattle out on a regular basis. If you wanted Bristol City Fans to only sing songs which Bristol City Fans have themselves introduced to football, then you'd be left pretty bored mate. I couldn't care less who sang it first, who made it up, where it came from etc. If it's good and creates atmos then get on with it. If you like, you can try to invent something new yourself and stand up and start it off. Takes a bit of balls to get up in front of thousands and sing a song no-one knows. I've done it plenty of times myself and made myself look like an arse. But someone's gotta do it, and without those blokes trying new things and starting off the songs there'd be no atmos at football and the game would be a thousand times worse. Embrace it baby. Or introduce something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
