The Gasbuster Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 4 hours ago, RedLionLad said: Some figures In 2023 so far total home attendances look like this. Rovers (5 games) 37462 (av 7492) City (6 games) 111798 (av 18633) If you add rugby’s 3 attendances of 45792 to City’s figure, it’s 157589. To add to the total we have… tonight’s England Womens game SOLD OUT (c26500) Championship game v Hull City (c19000) FA Cup Man City SOLD OUT (c26000) So roughly c71500 to add. Rovers have no more home games until March. Add the c71500 to the 157589 and that is 229089 My conclusion The Mem attendances this year up to the end of Feb : 37462 The Gate attendances this year up to the end of Feb : 229089 The differences in revenue generated must be miles apart. ….and yes, I was bored Yes, but what percentage of capacity are those crowds ? We all know this to be the most important factor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got a station, it’s expanding massively, is relatively easy to get to from their ever diminishing heartlands, there’s provision for a stadium in the South Glos local plan and it’s miles away from Bristol. As a Yate resident, you can **** right off with that suggestion! 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bert tann Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Rovers head of fales Mr David Dim has today announced the capacity of our proposed permananent temporary wrap around stand has been increased to 4000 and it will be renamed the South West North East Stand. The news that construction is to be completed in July was met with incredulity by supporters and the Bristol City Council planning department alike but Mr Dim is standing by his story. He told reporters gathered outside the Atomic Bugger on Gloucester Road that contractors have assured him the minute this season ends he will feel the earth move under his feet and the sky come a tumbling down. Later adding that his heart starts to tremble whenever he hears the words new ground. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheReds Posted February 22, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 I reckon it is superb that they have gone down there, they may give it the big 'un with their colours and their flag. But secretly all of them will be so envious and absolutely seething inside just looking at what facilities we have (multiple bars, multiple food outlets with huge variety, and all in date). It will all come flooding back to them as well each and every time they go to the Mem and have a look at their own ground that basically needs knocking down. Ps - thanks for the money as well, I'd like to think of it that you have donated some cash towards the previous purchase of The Snake. 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 It’s an England game so haven’t really got a problem with the flags as they’re supporting England. Steve Lansdown thanks you for your money of course. But…imagine being a Gashead visiting Ashton Gate and comparing it to what you’re used to? It must be absolutely soul destroying. This superb stadium with over a century of history, I hope there were plenty of Gasheads there tonight. You know they would have been impressed, no matter how much they may pretend they weren’t. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be absolutely soul destroying. A non-football fan friend was dragged along to the Mem recently and posted horrified pictures from within. Every beam rusty and corroded; exits blocked; trip hazards; wonky electrics; loose seating. He works in H&S. He's asked someone quite senior to look into matters. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not have thought it would have proved so popular. Over 26,000 attendance tonight. Great to see the Bristol public embracing women's football. Yep great turnout but everyone who went to that stadium should do 12 yrs hard graft in a Siberian salt mine. what a dumb comment, suggesting punishment for visiting a proper stadium Edited February 23, 2023 by fanjita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
