Bristol Support

[mona]

Pathetic. For a club that whinged when we won in Cardiff that they were well equipped for the Championship and had the support, their away turn-out was pathetic. Northampton brought more. City are arguably the best team in the division but their fans aren't up to it. Cardiff, Swansea, Bristol Rovers, Plymouth and Cheltenham have all got more loyal supporters than the Ashton Gate jokers.

I agree.Very poor turn out for a team going for promotion.

i thought that, but when you consider the league games and piss pot trophy games AND fa cup replays theyve had lately, their fans may just have run out of money?



just a guess like

Rubbish was expecting the away end to be a sell out.

agree up until City are the "best team in the division"

top 6 definitely , but teams like Scunthorpe,Forest etc... much better then City

considering we've taken over 2000 to Bristol in the past, it was bad.

When we played them at Ashton Gate in January their home turnout was poor.

I was slightly surprised there weren't a few more, but bear in mind, even when we were going well a couple of seasons back, there were certain places we never used to sell out.

Cardiff being a prime example, mainly because it's a long trip, the ground is a dive of the highest order, and the locals have a certain reputation.

To be slightly fairer to BC fans, it's a fairly long trip down here, we charge them £23 for possibly the worst view in the entire football league, where they've no cover and it's miles away from the pitch.

Plus the fact that they've recently been involved in a cup run involving away trips to Middlesbrough, Coventry, both with replays, the Jif Lemon Tesco Economy Happy Shopper Trophy, and they've just had a local derby against Rovers.

And by all accounts their league performances have been fairly uninspiring recently (God knows they weren't inspiring against us). All of which means I don't really blame the few hundred who evidently decided not to bother (or couldn't afford the trip).

To be fair that was the tin pot trophy. I've always found their home support for league games pretty good.

I think that they are the best team we have played this season, by far, but the away support does not match the expectations of the team.

I thought Bristol City had the best (away) support in the Division.

The so-called 'Withdean factor' affects everyone

Bristol City Away Stats we took the most there for a league game so far this season... they took 4000 to Forest and 400 to us...

 

[Napper]

it was rubbish , should really of sold out reagardless of recent cup games

Lost bit of respect I had for their fans

 

[eastlondonseagull]

Very disappointing turn-out by Brizzle and not vocal either

 

[sid]

4000 to forrest 400 to us something about the grounds i believe

we're 4th highest behind a premiership side, a fairly big championship club and their LOCAL RIVALS, so not bad really.
