[Tangled up in blue.]

Once their early enthusiasm has waned after about 20 minutes or so, we'll steamroller them

Bants over lads seriously if you like a drop of cider head to THE ORCHARD on the waterfront proper little boozer out the way , you’ll be able to try around 12 or more ciders some around 9% great rolls as well ENJOY

Wishing injuries on our players isn't 'bants' you sad prick.

Youre not welcome you plastic ****,that should be loud and clear by now.

 

[Jonathan Gunn]

Won't be easy this game. Bristol City 13 games unbeaten and wily old Nigel Pearson in charge. As long as Kalvin Phillips is kept well away from the Starting XI we should win.

'Tis alright to pelt the oppos with pies made in Wigan - they contain all kinds of shite. They might even contain a little bit of Dave Whelan!

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

I hope Pep picks a team capable of winning early and give the first choices some rest, easier said than done. I would like to see eddie, Haaland, Grealish, Dias, Rodri and Ake sit this one out, unless it goes pear-shaped, time to give Gomez and Phillips a chance to show their abilities and Ortega is a decent enough goalkeeper. Tough games ahead, the FA Cup is the lowest priority but we need some momentum. as my name implies I live in Bournemouth and don’t support them, but I spoke to a few Bournemouth supporters that went on Saturday and they were complimentary about the away support and our team, and a common observation was they felt they had been let off the hook by the second half subs.

Afternoon chaps.

Just had a browse through the thread, I found the comment about being a "closet gooner" just as strange as you all have.

I go home and away most weeks and there's generally a group of about 30-40 of us that drink together before and after and not one of them "supports" a second side, would be frowned upon no doubt.

Probably a stupid question but I assume you've sold your allocation for tomorrow, if you're looking for drinking recommendations my advice would be to drink in the centre around the harbourside as there's not any pubs near the ground that welcome away fans. You'll probably get in Bristol Beer Factory if that's your cup of tea, but with all the good pubs and bars Bristol has to offer I wouldn't really recommend coming down and just plotting up in there.

I don't really have much insight to offer on the game, complete free hit for us and I'm sure you'll beat us by 3/4 goals at least if you put out even half a side. Just treating it as we should really, will be a good day on the piss and a good atmosphere in a packed out Ashton Gate, but we've got Cardiff away on Saturday so I'll be more worried about that one to be honest.

Have a good one for anyone travelling down for the day, any recommendations pubs wise or whatever needed just give us a shout.

Thanks for that - though how far is the Nags Head pub from Nelson Mandela House?

Our number 7 may be of interest to you tomorrow night.

19 year old called Alex Scott, nicknamed the Guernsey Grealish because of how he carries the ball.

Incredible talent that we won't be keeping beyond this summer, he's been outstanding for us.

Dortmund are watching him every week so wouldn't be surprised if he went there to replace Bellingham, but I know that Man City have had scouts at several of our home games this year so like I said maybe one to watch.

 

[tommybooth]

Lay the blame with FA/Bristol.

 

[Corky]

City must have had the tickets Wed latest if people got them on Thurs. 6 days is cutting it fine but enough time to send them out without collections needed.
