CyderInACan Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 Saw this a day or two ago - it's on the side of the building on the right of the Rising Sun as you look at it from the Park/Natch Wall. Can't wait to see it in all it's glory COYR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Monaghan Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 (edited) I love how we've gone down our (Bristols) heritage with street art! I've always wondered why we haven't done something like that with an away shirt, or evening with that hideous grey mass at the front of the Dolman stand. That is calling for something to be put / written on it. Edited February 12 by Tim Monaghan 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had that training top with Bristol City written in comic sans street writing as a nod to Bristols heritage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewisdabaron Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Fantastic work to those involved. The 2 houses as you enter the stadium Dolman / Atyeo side has a huge blank canvas that should also be looked into so be decorated. I do wonder what Louis thinks of it, as he has pretty much disassociated himself with the club for a long time now.

Yeah, ‘Bristol City Football Club’ in normal letters would look great but that’s not going to happen.

I know his mum hosts corporate tables in the Lansdown. Probably keeps her company, certainly has nothing else to do with the club apart from watching games. Its no secret he is not impressed with how he was treated by the club & what they made him do with his testimonial funds.

Open End Numb Legs Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Great to see that. As Merrick was one of my favourites, I will be incredibly picky and say a classic image would have seen him leaning in the other direction and kicking the ball with his left foot but I guess the windows on the wall get in the way somewhat. Thanks for the photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogbad the Bad Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Love to see this sort of thing, but personally would have preferred a tribute to all the 75-76 promotion team, with Captain Sir Geoffrey prominent, of course. It would be great to recognise the loyalty, long service and particularly the outstanding achievement - once in a lifetime? - of the likes of Tom Ritchie, Gerry Gow, Gerry Sweeney and Trevor Tainton. Hopefully to follow, plus Donnie Gillies celebrating his famous goal at Leeds, and Cheese doing the same at Arsenal would be great. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
