Robbored Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 If I wanted to watch the players train I'd pop up to Failand.... The dressing rooms look like...... well dressing rooms.......... it would have been far more interesting if a player had shown the cameraman around.

Not all of us are able to "pop up to Failand" and I'm personally kind of interested in the behind the scenes stuff. Out of interest - which player would you have picked to be the tour guide?

You can see they are all acting...if you look closely, you can see snipers hiding in the corner of the Directors box, wearing a North Korean type bandana with the words inscribed...'Smoke and Mirrors'. I don't believe a word of it. Can guarantee someone will find something in it to hang LJ and the club... To be honest @Spudski disappointed the shirts were not in numerical or alphabetical order the club should sort it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 1 hour ago, downendcity said: A bit worried about the sign saying " Welcome to Ashton Gate" as we've been making teams too welcome to Ashton Gate this season. Remember playing county league football back in the day at Arundel ( I think). In the away dressing rom they had a stainless steel urinal with Arundel FC painted on the steel back in large letters. Underneath, in smaller letters was painted " this is the only time you'll be able to pi55 all over us today". We should go for something similarly welcoming. That was my first thought. May be just a little thing and, seemingly, trivial in the wider scheme of things but to me is symptomatic of what we are as a Club and why we constantly fail. Nice, soft and inoffensive. 'Welcome' to your sporting opponents. Seriously. Maybe we could give cuddly bears out to the opposition players as well. Will this intimidate our opponents? Sure, like Warnock is going to think 'Oh, how nice. Chaps be on your best behaviour today, no cheating and please don't upset them by scoring late on'. No, more like look chaps what a soft touch this place is, take full advantage. 'This is Bristol. We're going to get right in your ******* faces, you *****' would be far more appropriate.

Up The City! Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 The Atyeo changing room of late hasn't been a good place so moving away from that into a new dressing room could give our players a little boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he can do one when the whole stadium is complete? Incorporating changing rooms (home/away), media centre, Heineken Lounges, concourse and VIP areas such as upstairs in the Lansdown.

Kind of agree with you, didn't over a minute of watching the players train on the pitch. It would have been great, and this ties in with the posts above, if we had a walkthrough from entering the main entrance and showed what was in the corridor etc, then finishing walking out onto the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
