Guest CiderRedMatt Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 I know someone has already suggested 'The Brian Tinnion Stand' which sounds good but any other suggestions if we redevelop the williams/wedlock or do you think there good enough already?

wesco Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 I think the Names we have are good at the moment, but could find room for the tinnion stand and the ashton eight (Not sutre if it would sound right) maybe have a bar named after them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CiderRedMatt Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 true, they need to be remembered, i was born after it happened but i want what they did to be remembered for all time - they saved this club and it's about time they got recognised for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Uncle Ern Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 If we name the bar "The Ashton Gate Eight" will some people take that as an instruction of how many to drink ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CiderRedMatt Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 What about a statue outside the ground or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 Obviously should be named after people who have achieved something outstanding for the club. The DICKS STAND Who was suggesting we should get a Viagra sponsorship on this forum? I love it when a plan comes together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Neo Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 So we have the Dicks Stand, The Bell End. Surely we need to add the Cock End and the "Flaps" could be the large area behind our no. 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesco Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 How about naming an end after Mickey Bell - he's been a fine servant to the club ? Thats an insult to people like the ashton eight, dicks and other players that have served the club well. Bell's only been here for 7 years is it which is a long time but he has cost us a lot in wages the last few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it an "end" named after Bell would be called the "---- ---" (clue it fit's with the Dicks stand) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chalky Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 I would be all FOR naming a stand after Sir Brian Tinnion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Red Hat Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 If we name the bar "The Ashton Gate Eight" will some people take that as an instruction of how many to drink ??? We could name one of the turnstiles after them and call it "the ashton eight gate". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calculus Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 As far as the Ashton Gate Eight go, how about naming a block in the Dolman after each (there are now 8 Dolman blocks, A-H). I think we should do that now, as some honour is long overdue. On a less serious note: Perhaps we could also rename the Red and White bar 'Jackies' ......... Going even further, maybe we could name Atyeo Row Z the Ivan Tistimetanu Row. There could even be a seat in the Williams called Beadles Chair ... and a finally, lest we forget, the Lee Mattews Treatment Table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordofthebling Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 what about the Carl Hutchings roof? Like the idea of Tinnion stand though and a memorial of some sort for the 8... Then again, if we are naming stuff after everyone - why dont they do what that other club did (cant remember the name) and auction off a stand to be named after you - I know old tony robinson has some dolla - maybe he could stump up a few k's for a year or so!

Guest two acres red Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 what about the lee mathews food kiosk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider red Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 I also think the brian tinnion stand would be good. And we could have an ashton gate 8 statue as you enter the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Red Hat Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 what about the lee mathews food kiosk. And would this be "manned" by the same transvestites that Bawno has asked to have in the kiosks, over on the Steve L forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud55 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I think Tinnion should have one, But does he deserve to be above the likes of harry Dolman, Billy Wedlock, John Atyeo, and mr Williams, (can't say i know that one). I think he deserves to be in the same category but above them, i haven't got a clue really. Mabye a 2 teir stand named after Williams and Dolman, would leave room for an Atyeo stand, A wedlock stand and a Tinnion stand. I think that anything commemorating the ashton gate eight should be incorporated into any stand that was named after tinman, after all without them tinman wouldn't have been here. But as for now i agree that the blocks in the dolman should be given names to remember those 8 that this club and it's fans should never be allowed to forget.

cider head Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 the legends end and a name plate of considered city legends put on the stand wall then every city hero can be remembered for every decade and generation of bristol city just the same way a war heros name plate you see near some memorials but our memorial so to speak would be a stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesco Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I like the idea of the legends end and you could have photo's of all the greats and a bar named after the ashton eight or something. If only we could afford to do that and not have something like the Orange Stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
