Esmond Million's Bung Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I read with interest some of the ungrateful comments by some of the rugger buggerers, hankering for the good old days and for the game to be at some place in Whorefield FFS, ungrateful ******s.

Up The City! Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Wishing them luck. Hoping they can experience a special night at Ashton Gate because when the Gate is rocking it's truly remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stortz Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I believe we also score some sponsored big screens at the Gate if they get through tonight, so come on Bristol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General consensus on the below thread seems to be in favour. Feel nostalgic about the standing/atmosphere of the Mem but prefer the facilities and (importantly) the welcoming nature of City fans at Ashton Gate. http://www.rugbynetwork.net/boards/read/s100.htm?102,15658533 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Br1stolCityBoy Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Good luck to Bristol tonight. Premiership rugby next season can only be brilliant for Bristol Sport and of course BCFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't be that many then as I've just searched "all" the comments (most articles have 0) on the last 3 pages of Bristol Rugby stories on the Post website and could not find any disparaging remarks. In defence of that view though, I'm sure 6 or 7k in the Mem produced a better atmosphere than that number inside AG so if tonight goes to plan they hopefully won't have that problem next season as Premiership Rugby will undoubtedly lead to extra crowds.

Ivorguy Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 As a Bristolian exile it seems really good to have Bristol and City at the same ground - somehow feels very right. Bristolians together. Will be glued to Sky tonight. The Promised Land in touching distance for Bristol, and for City soon (PLEASE!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Here I am finding myself interested in the rugby team, in a way I never used to be. And here we are talking about Bristol again as if they are our own, in a way we never used to. Maybe, just maybe, the Bristol Sport thing is working.....
