NickJ Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 From a Bristol City fan for your support yesterday, superbly led by drummer boy, loud and constant and the chants and songs are original too. Fair play, not a bad team either.
Finnegan Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 **** me, a gracious Brizzle fan? We'll be getting praise from Dull next.
foxesfan1989 Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 From a Bristol City fan for your support yesterday, superbly led by drummer boy, loud and constant and the chants and songs are original too. Fair play, not a bad team either. We only sing when were winning But thanks! Good luck staying up this season.
Deucalion Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Although to be fair, I sit in the West Stand so I can't sing for all the prawn sandwiches. I'm sure the young bucks sitting opposite will appreciate your comments though. Best of luck!
davieG Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 thanks for the comments but considering we were sitting top of the league I thought, like the team performance it was very lacklustre good job you didn't meet us on one of our more dynamic days.
Libertine Dream Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Fair play mate, I think we're sometimes a bit harsh on ourselves regarding atmosphere as its certainly a lot better than most grounds and fans. I did think yesterday that like the team, the fans became lacklustre after the goal, had both the team and fans kept going it could have been immense.
Iwan is a Welshman Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Thanks for the comment. Football fans that make the journey you did yesterday deserve a great deal of respect. Good luck for the rest of the season.

Too right, did you watch Ipswich Cardiff yesterday?
Munshi Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Too right, did you watch Ipswich Cardiff yesterday? Shit game , Shit fans , shit ground
Danny the Fox 95 Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 From a Bristol City fan for your support yesterday, superbly led by drummer boy, loud and constant and the chants and songs are original too. Fair play, not a bad team either. Cheers mate, good luck with the rest of your season!
Thracian Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Fair play mate, I think we're sometimes a bit harsh on ourselves regarding atmosphere as its certainly a lot better than most grounds and fans. I did think yesterday that like the team, the fans became lacklustre after the goal, had both the team and fans kept going it could have been immense. The opening goal was just about the last notable event we had to cheer about. Even our second was scored by them! We could have continued to be rousing, but that wasn't on the agenda. The crowd mirrored our players really. They sat back, played among themselves and just saw the game out.
Fox92 Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Good luck for the rest of the season. Fair play to your fans the made the journey up as well, decent support taking into account your location.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 7 October 2012 Posted 7 October 2012 Thanks though still maintain that I thought our support was quite poor compared to say Hull at home this season. In fact given that we were top at the point I'd say it was shite

We could have continued to be rousing, but that wasn't on the agenda. The crowd mirrored our players really. They sat back, played among themselves and just saw the game out. That's a fair point. Like I said on another game I thought our fans were brilliant when the team was turning ot on the first half an hour, very loud. But yeh, you're right about the atmosphere mirroring the performance as the game went on.
Dan Posted 8 October 2012 Posted 8 October 2012 While we're at it, I'll praise your home support, I think the acoustics are perfect but I'd probably say you've got the noisiest home support in the division, the little block to our right anyway.
NickJ Posted 8 October 2012 Author Posted 8 October 2012 Drummer boy- he'll like that! Not meant in an insulting way - I had a brief chat with him coming out of your ground a couple of years ago, he's a good lad! As for other comments, interesting a lot of you were surprised by the compliment. Even allowing for the fact that away fans are sandwiched in between the noisiest and second noisiest elements of your support, I still think it was good, compared with a lot of places I've been to. Our support is good at home when it wants to be, considering we're not often given much to shout about. The block to the right of the away fans, the East End, thrive on competition and banter from away fans, so do your best when you come down here.

Is that the block with the Only fools and horses flats behind it? Where your tamborine man is? That was funny banter a couple of years ago 'you can stick your tamborine up your arse'. I think your place is about the only ground that lets Jobber take his drum too.
NickJ Posted 8 October 2012 Author Posted 8 October 2012 The Only Fools & Horses flats are behind the Dolman, thats the big stand on one side of the pitch. Not sure about the tamborine, weve had drums and loud hailers and trumpets and even a full scale band over the years. And a fire resistent surfer flag thats not allowed in any more because of the fire risk. Doh.

promised land Posted 8 October 2012 Posted 8 October 2012 We're not alone then in the fire risk for flags, banners etc. Health and safety is slowly killing everything in this country. It will soon be law to wear hi viz vests when walking along a pavement.
