Correct!

We used to give them some problems on the way home from school when we met on the bombed site where the multi storey car park is now behind the Colston Hall. BGS Forever.

Bristol Grammar were 5hit as well! Used to love smashing them into the mud!

Sancti Brendani ruled school rugby, end of.

Fantastic goal. Ball comes across his body and then the finish on his 'weaker' right foot.

If he is again one of our stand-out players this term then you could certainly see some serious interest in him next summer.

Not all that easy to come by those quality left-sided English players...

Agree; he's undoubtably in a few top flight minds already. Delighted he signed a contact extention this summer; hope he sticks with us a while longer.

Rubbish. Henbury ruled the football and rugby sports fields of Bristol.

The posh schools wouldn't play us :-)

Very true. Always new QEH were scared of facing a real team. ;)

Yeah, they were equally scared of our spelling! ;-)

On the Joe Bryan front, if he isn't playing for England in two years I'll eat my school cap. One of the most accomplished and talented footballers to play for us. Simply superb.

Surprising number of oversized brawlers at BGS in my day in fact, and very strong, aggressive and successful Rugby teams.

 

Saw some atrocious injuries and also witnessed one of the House Masters breaking a boy's leg when getting carried away and crunching him demonstrating a tackle.

 

As for being a posh school, bit of a fallacy - a large number were actually ordinary lads from Knowle, Downend, Kingswood etc. who just happened to pass the 11+/entrance exam.

 

Big and active support for BCFC too, many still going 40+ years later.

Too true.

The point was well made by Brendan Mitchell when England U21s last played that a lot of inferior players at "bigger" clubs seemed to be selected instead of him.

I'd be interested to know what nationality Joe views himself as considering he accepted a Scotland U21 call up but had to withdraw through injury. Does he view himself as Scottish or did he at the time think there was no chance of representing England in the future?
