Bristol Rob Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Wonder if any of them will ask questions such as; 'is the rumour true that season ticket sales are down about 30% for the coming campaign?'

Let’s just break that down..... history.....none to speak of, a perennial lower league club silverware......league one title over 30 years ago recent history.....a non league club not long ago and two promotions to get to the bottom half of league one stadium.....accepted, even by most of their own fans, as one of the worst grounds in the country facilities......none. No proper training facilities, currently training in a park support.....regardless of their own delusion, have only hit over 10,000 a handful of times in decades. Currently averaging about 8,000 ownership..... fake sheik who has little to no available money to invest, losing thousands every week, only asset tied in to club debt Potential.......trying to compete with a city rival that is an established championship club pushing for the prem, owned by a “real” billionaire fan who has provided a 27,000 stadium, good performing academy, soon to be prem standard trading facilities, sanctioning multi-million pound transfers in conjunction with record season ticket sales and home attendances of nearly 22,000 So Mr Davies.....please feel free to qualify your statement of “the size of the club” Edited June 11, 2019 by RedRaw 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's due to the widespread belief that there is only 'One Team In Bristol' This leads to the commonly used reference of ' Bristol ' in football terms therefore it is frequently misconstrued as meaning Bristol City FC … Reckon young Tom couldn't believe his luck when told 'Bristol' wanted him, what a shame, hard luck Tom, hope you enjoy camping. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Bless em. They are talking about Coventry being their feeder club.

BTRFTG Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 There's a trend developing here. First, Little expects to get paid and now Davis moves from a club with no ground to a club that will shortly have no ground.
