Nogbad the Bad Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Managed to shoehorn in references to the cups and fixture congestion. A genuine City fan who actually attends games when he can (unlike many of our 'celebrity fans') Another is actor Joe Sims who I spotted in the Williams against Yeovil.

The only celebrity fan I can think of that professed a love for City whilst not attending games was the bearded buffoon whose name escapes me. I have no reason to believe any of the others are bandwagon jumpers in the way that he seemed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming with the career down the swanney, he might have ditched the Jesus look and be doing an ordinary job somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Red Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 We interviewed Mark Watson for the One Team In Bristol fanzine (Issue 200) and Joe Sims (Issue 201) on sale v Notts County and it was very clear they are true passionate City fans. Great guys. Does anyone see Tony Robinson anymore at City? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen him the past few seasons though. I have a vague memory he might be based in the States now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOXO Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Tony Robinson now lives in East London, so I guess he is not a regular for home games. Remember him at a couple of games home and away in the past... Very active politically etc and now of course a knight of the realm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Nope, definitely still Bristol based, saw him last week. Thanks for the info. I'm a bit out of the loop these days. Probably sits in a different block or stand then these days. I've never seen Rob Del Naja here, but I know from a couple of conversations I've had, he's a fanatical fan and he has an amazing recall of matches.

zyderiup Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 A genuine City fan who actually attends games when he can (unlike many of our 'celebrity fans') He was on Radio 2 and chatting about City the morning of the Walsall game this season. He was asked if he attends games and he said that he really tries to but due to his touring, he makes it to more away matches than home and actually checks the fixtures with his tour dates / other engagements to see what games he can make it to. Then said that he was going to try and make the Walsall game as soon as the interview was over. I must admit, at the time, when he said he hadn't made it to Ashton Gate for a couple of seasons I kind of thought he was talking shite but sure enough, someone on here posted a picture of him stood next to them in the stand. Fair play to the bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchay Red Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Tony Robinson now lives in East London, so I guess he is not a regular for home games. Remember him at a couple of games home and away in the past... Very active politically etc and now of course a knight of the realm.... His son is a bit of a petrol head and purely by chance I came across him on the Pistonheads forum when I was thinking of getting a TVR a several years ago, (Baldrick used to have a Chimaera and his son had a Tamora). When it came to light who his dad was I asked if he still supported City. He said that he had now moved to London where most of his work was and couldn't manage to get to home games in Bristol, but did try to see them when they played any London clubs, if he could. Whether this is still the same these days I don't know. His son put me off buying a TVR though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great guys. Does anyone see Tony Robinson anymore at City?I queued for Liverpool tickets with Tony Robinson 21 years ago. I got the impression he was completely bored with everything I had to say (which of course makes him a wonderful person).Show biz chums with fans liaison officer David Lloyd of course. I saw them at Charlton more recently, the same game that a Baldrick wannabe was "up in a tree, he's up in a tree, he's Bristol City, he's up in a tree". Maybe DaveL can confirm or deny Sir Tony's allegiance ?Oh and my son reliably informs me that Lethal Bizzle was at Leyton Orient away last season, but more as a fan of JET than anything.
