Maybe if they sell out,

there might be a beam back for the remainder of the Leeds followers

That's interesting.

Presumably that's the max we will give as unreserved seating.

Leaving about 500 empty seats.

Hopefully the upper Lansdown will be sold giving us our first 26K plus gate.

Is that more than villa got? Or did villa just not sell out?

[CotswoldRed]

Can't stand 'em. Always the most abuse thrown at Mums, Dads and children from that mob. 

And I mean outside the ground.

When I was 13 I made a comment about their accent walking in to the ground (not even after they’d lost) a fully grown man asked me for a fight, vile..

Live on Sky wasn't it - would have detered a few I suppose, but even so I thought they'd have sold out.

Need segregation... Need to keep those Leeds fans away from the Dolman !!

Would hate to see them tumbling down the stars of the dolman again!  

[Garland-sweden]

One norwegian and 27 swedes will be at the gate vs Leed. We are all Cityfans. Think it gonna be a good game with a big crowd and 2-1 City!!!

[Ohbasso]

I like it when there's a big away following it usually improves the atmosphere all around the ground, much better than games like Tuesday with 200 odd Bolton fans.

I once said that Ken Bates was a legend, and some old man kicked me in the bum from behind.

Glad they are bringing loads, hopefully we can get 22k+

[joe jordans teeth]

Long way to go home after a defeat for them but we have all done it before

Thanks, a win would be more than great. We will enjoy in your beautiful town but a loss make the journey not so pleasant. Last time I was at the gate was last season, Villa 3-1, never forget. Shot, not hard, from Tomlin and Tammy the rebound in empy goal. Bryan the second with a Lovely ball from Tammy. The third a frekick from Tomlin, masterpiece. Really hope for another win.

Two teams who are playing good football at the moment. Should be the biggest crowd of the season so far.

3pm on a Saturday too.

Coming friday and leaving sunday. Sometimes we see two games, saturday tuesday. Two games is better, then we can relax in a better way. We go together twice a season, autumn and spring, usually easter. From november Easy Jet go Stockholm- Bristol, perfect. Now we have to go to London and then train or bus to Bristol. Eight of us, they are from south of Sweden, Copenhagen- Bristol. When we were in leauge one we went to Coventry, win 3-1, that was great like all that season. City have done it well so far so we are really looking forward to the game. Always believe, COYR!!!

Can I ask how you actually got in to City in the first place? I love the fact we have foreign fans that properly care about the club, I just wonder how it happened!

[swanker]

It would be nice to take the same amount of support up there for the return fixture.

Not likely. Tickets for away fans up there are about 40 squid arent they? Or at least they were.

I was with my parents in Germany, holidays. My father was from Kiel, a city in northern Germany. Bristol City played there in preseason. 3 july 1970 it was Holstein Kiel- Bristol City, 0-2, Garland scored both. I was 13 years old and played football all the time in Sweden. It was the first time I saw two foreign teams live. Since then City is my team. Met Gerry Gow a couple of years ago in Weymouth. He told me he was 17 and had his first contract with City. He told it was his first game, also my first game, life is funny sometimes. About 44-45 years later we meet eachother in Weymouth. I Liked Gerry Gow, top man. Ok thats my story, Always believe, COYR!!!

There was a Swedish group of Stenhousemuir supporters that went to their games. Maybe it's a Swedish thing, and all power to their elbows!

Top man. Your optimism and cheeriness is all the more remarkable, mate, and a lesson to us, er, not us all exactly, just those of us not always so optimistic and cheery (cough).

We've already had one - Birmingham, last home game last season.

Although you could perhaps argue that £15 tickets is cheating!

[Garland-sweden]

It would be nice to Come to a full house. Hope that we do a good game so the atmosfere is good. But first we go to Ipswich and then Burton I think.

[T R]

Will be interesting to know what team my mate will be supporting on the day as he supports both. Probably whoever is winning at the time I suspect. 

[bristolcitysweden]

Theresa May. Do something about it. They are unemployed but still can afford to go to Bristol over the weekend. Upsetting.

I would absolutely cringe if I was at the match and heard City fans chanting that nonsense. The word purile comes to mind.

[Guest husshen]

Horrible bunch.

I once slipped over on a banana skin right in front of them all, and to a man they all laughed at me.

Truly vile individuals.

[YorksRed]

I'm coming down with some Leeds supporting friends who will be safely ensconced in the Atyeo.

I have absolutely no intention of joining them there, friends or not, so can anyone advise what the situation is about getting tickets in the Upper Lansdown if/when it is opened.  If I get a ticket now elsewhere I assume that I won't be able to swap for up there if it is opened later on?

Did you ask why they have done that? 3700ish tickets on sale. 

This is something that really pisses me off. Seen it this season with villa fans last season with newcastle,wigan and brum fans near the hospitality. If they remain quiet then great but if they jump up and start going mad (which happens almost every ocassion then its not going to end well. 

Hopefully we don't have a repeat of that incident where a leeda fan was thrown down the stairs.

Don`t know why not. Beat Burton and maybe Palace we should be on enough of a high to get over 24k at least I reckon.

It would be great if we could and no more than the team would deserve.
