wendyredredrobin Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Only one Bristol team has ever played in the top flight (twice). Only one Bristol team has ever played in an FA cup final. Only one Bristol team has ever played in a League Cup semi. Only one Bristol team has ever been relegated out of the Football League. I think only one team in Bristol has ever paid more than £1 million for a player (several of them). That's why there is only OTIB. Any more to add to this list. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've realised that what I meant by the 'seven goals' stat is that their highest league win is 7-0 versus Brighton (ironically!) which is seen as being better than their 2-8 win at Brighton....seven goal deficit being better than six.... But dear old Joe Payne's annihilation of them in their 12-0 defeat by Luton trumps everything! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without checking, I would bet they have not had an home attendance for ANY match in the past 30 years of 16,000+. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
