Anyone else remember seeing them on Top of the Pops. Combine Harvester, iirc.

Be handy if it said where they were performing so people could find them - On the pitch? Outside? In the concourse?!

There is a big stage in the fan zone so that would be a safe bet

Think it would be much better if they played before the match. It would create a good pre-match atmosphere and many people would be around to enjoy it. After the match many people have to get away and particularly if they have already delayed their departure to watch the team’s end of season lap of honour.

Or…. many people have prior engagements on Saturday mornings & dont make it to AG much before kick off.
After the game many like to stay out & have a few beers around BS3, so this is perfect post match entertainment for them.

Anyone who doesn’t think “Drink up thee cider” is one of the greatest songs written is:

1) not from the West Country 

2) weird.

C'mon Graham you should know better than that, the correct spelling of course being "Drink up thy Zider"

Looking forward to seeing them Saturday as this weird season finally comes to an end.

Barely anyone is ‘embarassed’ by the Wurzels. People cling to pillars of regional identity and they get passed on just as successfully through the generations today as they always have. A strong sense of regional identity continues to hold across the entire country from place to place and with devolution movements growing and being successfully implemented these regionalist sentiments are only getting stronger. It’s one of the things that makes England and the UK interesting. Our national identity may be a bit confused sometimes but from city to city, region to region we have such a stretch of cultures, dialect, even language. It’s a great positive way forward for pride of place in this country that most people can get behind. Which is also why the songs of the Wurzels, particularly those written by Adge Cutler, remain just as relevant as ever to folk of all ages in the West Country. He sang about life in rural Somerset, where a lot of City fans are from, and in many of those places the essence of life is much the same as it was when he sang about his experiences.

Personally i think they should keep to performing to the big eared boys on farms:

If they see a lovely field with a family having a picnic, and there's a nice pond in it, they'll fill in the pond with concrete, they'll plough the family into the field, they'll blow up the tree, and use the leaves to make a dress for their wife who's also their brother.

After all that has gone on this season , I hope they play this one.

Although it says “thy” it is very clearly sung as “thee”, isn’t it?

Even the Wurzles can not tempt me to turn up for this game ,
