everreddy Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 13 minutes ago, cynic said: Over 12k there today. Couple of beer wagons outside the south stand plus BBQ. Pics of supporters in their seats with their beer... Sadly, can't see that happening at footie matches at the Gate. Too many football fans still behave badly when "beered up" before a match. Goodness only knows what they'd be like if they could "top up" in the stands throughout a footie game. I dislike the arrogance of many (not all) rugger fans, but most of them know how to drink responsibly and support their team without too much nastiness.. And...they're able to mingle and hold good humoured banter with opposing fans... Its no wonder many decent families are stopping bringing their kids to the "beautiful game"!

Benjiman_LFC Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 People were up and down all afternoon in our row today to go and get beers. Very irritating. I'm glad football doesn't allow alcohol in the stands. Plenty of time before and after for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider_boy Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 5 minutes ago, Bob Taylor is GOD said: I waz there. jus got ome - bring on the final me too. good day out, took the nipper (which I don't when it comes to City), good atmosphere right around the 3 occupied sides of the ground (no stands calling each other names), flags all around the ground too. Good weather always helps. Section82 area looked empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CotswoldRed Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 After over 100 years of Rugby you'd have thought they could have invented a couple of songs, other than "BRRISTOLLLL" . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattjtsmith Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 I wonder if the final will have any effect on the build. Would think they want to start moving the pitch asap. Still, good on the boys and let's hope there is premiership rugby coming to the new ground! Would be good timing. Premier everything by 2020?? Yes please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes please I doubt it. I think they would have seen the final as being odds-on from day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People tend to drink and chat to each other and are interrupted by a try and then wave a flag and cheer. Sometimes it seems the rugby is secondary to what they are there for. They never jump to their feet or sing anything other that 'Bristol, Bristol'. They make a sound to urge their players on when they have a ruck which sounds like booing, this took me quite a while to get used to. There are no obvious away supporters, it seems they don't travel in numbers like football fans do. I'm hoping this might change if Bristol get to the Premiership. Totally different, not wrong, but very, very different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 That was a good atmosphere yesterday. The Barff fan next to me said that it was normally quite quiet at the Wreck and if Bris go up he might change allegiance as he lives in Bristol. A "plastic" convert? The clackers (like a cardboard fan) put on every seat helped some to join in but I don't want them at football. A good try a couple of times by some City fans at the back of the South Stand with "Ole, ole, etc". Wait until the Premiership away fans turn up in great numbers next season and you will hear good away support. Which may also spur on the Bris to get even more vocal. Bring on Doncaster for the Final in front of probably a full house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
