Portishead Red Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Can you imagine the sight the lads would walk out to if every City fan took a single red or white balloon and tore up an old newspaper? So how about it? Jay, you seem to be the man in organising things like this (well, foam hands) would you be up for handing out red and white balloons at Millwall - Or anybody else? Perhaps somebodys employer or company could supply us with some with their company logo on? Lets turn this game into a real carnival. Bring your own balloons and old newspapers and rip em up when the lads come out for kick off.What d'ya reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Yeah especially when they are guaranteed to go on the pitch at the end as its there last home game i believe? could be a nasty one! All our celebrations will really get them going!Millwall operate a very strong membership system these days and there is very unlikley to be any trouble within the ground. I've been there for a pitch invasion (?96) so I'm glad they've sorted it.Police are also very good at marshalling away fans back to the train so ticketholders should have no troouble at all. However I wouldn't be travelling down without a ticket and milling around. It's not a nice area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brizzlenick Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Yep they are going to run on the pitch and try and ruin things... but just laugh at them, we will have the city boys there aswell, nobody will get hurt, or if millwall try anything then you got 2,100 city lads by you. It will be all fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrisonBCFC Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 forget about the stupid millwall fans and what they might do.i think that it is a great idea and that everyone should be taking a newspaper and a balloon come on 2000 balloons flying around with city fans going mad.we could make such an atmoshpere. :goingup: :goingup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Lion Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Should be decent atmosphere on Saturday although i wouldn't advise anyone coming down without tickets to hang around the ground as you'll be picked off and the local hostelries don't take kindly to accents, also any City fans thinking of sitting in amongst our supporters would have to sit on there hands in silence, as there have been a few nasty incidents in the past when away fans have tried it. If you've got tickets come down and enjoy the game as it should be a cracker, despite our defeat yesterday we've been playing well having beaten both Swansea and Forest at our place recently, as for R & W balloons and confetti this would be more like a red rag to the locals!

freezer Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 So it's probably best then, that if we do happen to clinch promotion at the New Den next Saturday, that instead of celebrating it with balloons, singing, euphoria etc. that we just stay quiet all game and applaud respectfully after the final whistle.Nah, that's not going to happen, is it. After all these years in this crappy division, do you really think that over 2000 Ciderheads are going to keep quiet just in case it upsets the locals. I don't think so.Millwall you may be, but we are Bristol City, and if we want to party, party we will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheshire_red Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Why do people want to imitate Yeovil fans with their stupid balloons etc. It's for small town teams on their big day out in the FA Cup.Have some credibility and self respect, we're not 8 year olds.Flax is right, laughing stock.

If people want to bring along ballons ect then fair play to them, anything that adds to the colour/atmosphere of the away end is brilliant.

Portishead Red Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 we'd be a laughing stocksave all that for the rotherham gameUmmmm.....why?!All we'd be trying to do is make an awesome atmosphere......as it would happen BEFORE the game kicks off, its hardly a party is it? It was intended to "gee the players up".Seems like most of the posters think its a good idea so fingers crossed it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
