Guest Posted December 10, 2023 Report Share Posted December 10, 2023 Would anyone know where I might find a list of friendly games City have played since the Second World War? I have found several sites with league and cup records but they don’t seem to include friendly games played before or during the season. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Similarly I tried to find records of Gloucester cup finals of years gone by but nothing much online. I have a copy of Woods’ book, may have to dig it out.

There are sites that show all City results back to 1898, but based on league and cups. An example https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/bristol-city/1962/3/ Someone may be able to find historical friendlies somewhere.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh Louie louie Posted December 11, 2023 Report Share Posted December 11, 2023 One of the last Gloucester cup games, at ours, I recall the police running down the tunnel, Holloway had a running battle with someone cant recall who, htv west reported both midfielders got a stern talking too from the police!

Thanks Kind of you to offer, looking at an old programme the fixture list shows friendly games as well as league and cup, so I think I may have answered my own question Does that book include attendance records? 58 minutes ago, Merrick's Marvels said: Doubt there's anything on line that covers friendlies.

I found a programme and annoyingly the older programmes didn’t give the year only the day and date, as above I’ve found the year and score, but not the attendance. The game was against a German club called SINGEN FC, and I had never heard of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the match stats contained a little two or three line summary of the game, what the weather was like and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The programme I have is for a home game played on 12/11/57 (I think), score was 4-2 to City. I thought we had a tie up with Hannover(?), never heard of SINGEN.
