WiltshireRed Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Really? How long do you think the average city fan can twirl a scarf for? Both mentally and physically. It'd be some feat to do it for more than 15 minutes. Yes really, because funnily enough I wasn't talking about the one individual who sits directly in front of me. I'm all for an atmosphere I'm just not sure how scarves is going to change it from the current library this season .. People liking it to Liverpool is laughable, holding scarves above your head doesn't somehow make a good atmosphere.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Does this mean we can get out our vintage rattles, whistles and yoyos?! The stewards will take them off you at the turnstiles God forbid the fa let us have some fun in the stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Zod Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I'm hoping for a free knitted item at each round right the way through to the cup final. 40,000 city fans on a barmy sunny Saturday in May, head to toe in knitwear. Nice! Come on Bristol sport get your act together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtonboy Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Don't get me wrong I think it's a great gesture from the club however I hope it doesn't mean 90 minutes of watching scarves raised/spun around heads, call me old fashioned but a good view is more important to me than a good atmosphere...

I think we ought to ban anyone talking as well. Jesz, I can't hear the manager shouting out his player instructions because of to the din these so-called supporters make. Shocking. Do they all think they're in a football stadium or something. Rotters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Um I thought this thread was about scarves paid for by a mystery sponsor being given away ? Yes, and I was responding to a poster who said he didn't want 'Lansdown' on it .... suggesting he might like 'Higgs' to sponsor it instead.

Somerset Red Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Would be better to give them out when going into ground I agree, would prevent any potential problems occuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDOXO Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 For the record! Scarf is free! Scarf is paid for by sponsor not BCFC (So SC budget not effected) Scarf not made by below minimum wage labour Scarf is red Scar is also White Scarf has Robin on it Scarf will not require collection Scarf does not have West Ham United on it Unfortunately Scarf will not hold it self up Scarf will be able to share the ticket of seat holder Good luck to all new scarf holders for the game! COYR....Should be a great sight for the scarfless on TV Sunday!.....Nice touch by the club....The atmosphere should be immense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBrizzleRobin Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Wouldn't be suprised with there being problems at the game with scarf's being 'taken'. Sections of the general public are asshats unfortuanetly, great gesture by the club which hopefully isn't spolied by a few taking the piss.

slartibartfast Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 In order for me to wear said scarf I would need them to supply Levi jacket & jeans and either bumper boots or Doc Martins. If silk scarf then, Tank top and "Rupert Bear" trousers...thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Would be better to give them out when going into ground That would seem like the obvious solution. It only needs 1 person out of 12,000 to be dishonest, and one of those affected to react, and you have a problem. Not beyond the realms of possibility unfortunately. I'm not moaning though, it's a great gesture from the club and makes a lot of sense with the club on national TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIDER NOT CIDRE Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Great gesture Bristol Sport! Always wanted a scarf but never warranted opening out my pockets for one, so this provides a great opportunity. Just hope some individuals don't think it's funny to take other peoples scarves because that could ruin it for a fair few people especially when those poor sods have to nick one off another seat because theirs has been nicked already!

cider head Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I wonder if a new surfer could be supplied that fits all the latest regulations ? As long as any surfer or very large flags have a fire certificate it meets the regulations, plus having no obscene words or pictures on it then the club are happy. Also check out the size of the stand (blocks) to any flag people might be thinking of buying and will those blocks have a fair run to surf it.. Problem we have is size of the flag and layout of the stand, the murray surfer was not sized up for the Williams stand as it is made in the portrait layout with it's 40ft size poses a problem with the pillars..

Handing out at the turnstiles would be a more secure and fair way to ensure everybody gets one. But difficult because of the space they would take up and those entering are not evenly distributed over all the turnstiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na mate afraid not, I'm just someone who actually enjoys watching football for the game, don't get me wrong I don't just go to watch football I've been city all my life but this will be the highest standard opposition we will have played in my life time and I want to be able to see our boys on the current form go toe to toe with a big name of English football.. Still enjoy a good sing and drink on match day like everyone else, was a st holder in the wedlock, love a good match day atmosphere just don't want to have a scarf in front on my face all game if that's such a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's true, would be difficult to keep a thousand scarfs behind one of those turnstiles! But you're right it would be a more secure way to do it.
