BS4 on Tour... Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I remember back in the 80s I rang Ashton Gate on a Tuesday morning and asked what time the game kicked off that night. 'What time can you get here?' was the reply..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Course, if they City/First/ABus were able to provide a better transport infrastructure, there would be fewer cars and for some folk, a chance to get home from work, drop the car off and then get back without the need for their own chariot. As it stands, it's either a straight from work exercise or a try and finish early to get the car back and then down to the Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Given that the traffic is so bad in and around Bristol what about games in the middle of the night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 If you could fit it around my shift pattern , that would be great. I wouldn't want it later when I'm on an early as I'm up at 5am. On the other hand, on late's I have to have 1/2 a day or miss a game depending on what holidays I have left. Either way it's a pain. Have to be there by 6 to park, then can't drink !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would prevent a lot of fans who get that service attending if it was any later. Please don't change it! Was going to say this. When I'm not up the smoke, the later the game the more chance of fog/ice over the Mendips o the way back. And the less chance of getting a pint in at the local!

Bar BS3 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 11.30pm please. Why waste the pub opening hours..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Having given this a bit more thought, I suggest the following. Keep kickoff at 7.45, but we approach every game with a golden goal rule. First to score wins, and if there are no goals after 20 minutes the game is declared a draw and we can all go home for dinner or back to the pub for more booze. Loads of people wouldn't bother, which would help the traffic congestion. Confusion in the Dolman as no one would know how early to leave. The club could make a fortune #DMS as with all this extra free time people will stay for a sheep burger and pint. Those who have to get a train back will have ample time to get to the station. And! We would never lose to a 90th minute goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
