Cardy Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 With nearly 20,000 City fans having to get in the ground on Saturday I wonder if the club will be doing all it can to get the game kicked off at 3pm. Clearly there is a huge advantage to delaying the kick off by 10 mins ala Coventry.Any bright ideas ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly there is a huge advantage to delaying the kick off by 10 mins ala Coventry.Any bright ideas ?Arrange for Peter Carrol Coaches to pick up the ref before the game with a police escort?That should delay the start by 40 minutes or so.

bcfcchris2016 Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 the club find out that the 10 or so Rotherham fans going to Ashton Gate our going by CAT's is enough for city to delay the game for 10 minutes. Maybe even an hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percy Parrot Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 The FA are very strict on this these days and rightly so.If there is a delay at City, Forest or Swansea then they should contact the other grounds and try to co-ordinate.Any delay will probably get City in to a lot of bother and is not necessary anyway- we know our task. 3 points. If we win we're up. If we don't- we can safely assume we're not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Cloud Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Is it due for Rain? - if so maybe we could ask the "family club" how they would wangle it using covers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giles_23_bcfc Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Is it due for Rain? - if so maybe we could ask the "family club" how they would wangle it using covers?How about everyone wait outside the turnstiles until 2:55. With near on 20,000 people outside surely for safety reasons they have to delay it so everyone can get in on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bringbacktherobin Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 If they do stay at aztec hotel almondsbury then surley someone who lives nearby can just go up there at 4am with a air horn. Honk it a few times then run away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honk it a few times then run away.I know you're probably joking but please lets not do anything stupid that might actually provoke a response from Rotherham Let's just treat them with respect and hope they treat our aims with similar respect. We'd have taken a single home match against Rotherham to win promotion at the start of the season, lets just leave it at that and not get into any unnecessary stuff which starts giving the match extra meaning.
