Bluesteel Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Bristol City have good potential, like Brighton they have a good platform and have been quite progressive. The problem is they probably sell too many players at once to make the top six, but we’ve been given some hidings down there. Ironically this was when we were a more attractive side to watch.

Working and living around Bristol and hearing the accent almost daily Matt Lucas’s ability to mimic the female Bristolian accent is truly astounding! He was at Uni in Bristol and picked up the accent by simply walking around the shops......very talented guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatter Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Pretty much what you would expect when their team just lost the third game on the bounce to a disputed penalty. Thought their comments were pretty mild after a 6 hour round trip for a noon kick off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I loved City’s fast aggressive ambitious kick off where they nearly scored. I tell my U13 team “I don’t mind what you do from the kick-off, but HAVE A PLAN”. Instead, A looks around. A passes back to B. B isn’t looking. B loses ball. Rinse and repeat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Grez Bez Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 (edited) Always like Bristol C. Proper club, one if the least offensive teams around. Always surprised me that for a decent sized city their crowds are so small and they have never been in the top flight (recently). Great badge, everything ours used to be!

Bristol and the West Country per se has never ever a hot bed of football unlike other major cities like Birmingham, London, Liverpool. Around Sheffield there are other big clubs with Huddersfield and Leeds, Around here rugby union is very very popular with Gloucester, Bath and the Bears all within a 50 mile radius and the Exeter Chiefs just outside that radius. Apart from us there are no other ‘big’ football clubs. Our local rivals are Cardiff - 45 miles away! Should the Gas get promoted then they’d obviously become our rivals.
