greenun Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 ...to try and lift the players to 3 points against Yeovil and back on the Yellowbrick Road to Championship Oz.If we could create an intimidating atmosphere, akin to the Fratton Park faithful, I'm sure that could raise our players' workrate by a few per cent.Championship football is something that we all desperately want. Lets do something to make a difference, now, before its too late.Will the club allow fans to bring horns, or other weapons of ear disruption into the stadium?

City never seem to be at the races when a big crowd is in attendance. I'm dreading the final few home games where we're getting large crowds!

Bristol Boy Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 With CS in charge I'm surprised anyone's allowed in, at all.There is no doubt that we all need to come to the party-The problem is that try as I may, I can't get the goals we need and neither can you.I think our fans, or perhaps the vast majority of them, have been terrific home and away lately.It's our front four that need to do far batter.

robins72 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 If the prospect of playing championship football isnt a big enough reason for the players then they need shooting!! Lets get behind the team on Saturday sing our hearts out and hope that the gaffer has the belied installed in the team. We are winners!! Look at the unbeaten run of 18 matches after our last defeat to Yeovil. We will go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the unbeaten run of 18 matches after our last defeat to Yeovil. We will go up.We should lobby the club to create a Championship Or Bust day.Think about it, the message would be similar to the BOGOF advertising campaign. You know - Buy One Get One Free. Except this will be, get a COB on for Bristol City.In all seriousness though, the club should be banging the drum for a twelfth man this Saturday.

We have never been in a better position to get out of this league. Positivity is the key and the players believing in themselves and each other. The strikers need to look back on the massive unbeaten run we had from November until February and build on that. We do have the quality we know that we just need to get to the finishing line instead of tripping up and falling over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenun Posted April 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 please no i hate them they ruin the atmosphere Which atmosphere would that be?The library-like mood of the majority of the ground?Or, the small pockets of thunderous fandom, such as the Subbers?

Guest North Street Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Will the club allow fans to bring horns, or other weapons of ear disruption into the stadium?No and the club take a extremely dim view of this e.g police filming fans using megaphones v Brentford, megaphones consificated and fans threatened with bans by stewards.Not worth the risk.

Air Horns and Bull Horns are banned under national stadium regulations.In fact, the only instrument which is admissable is a drum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesco Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Air horns are a pain they ruin every major game, England home games are a nightmare when you've got some 7 year old who has the ability to blow it for 3 hours straight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
