Can't remember seeing any trouble.There should be a statue of me outside Ashton Gate. I spent thirty seasons managing them on Championship manager 2000, taking them from the bottom division to the top flight and winning more Premier League titles and Champions League titles than Alex Ferguson. My main man was a free transfer striker from Spurs by the name of Dave McEwan who I picked up as a youngster for free. I must Google him as I have never heard of him in the real football world. Obviously he couldn't do it in the real football world.are the players not all automatically generated by the time you are 30 saesons in?!!

Not the most friendliest of fans, as anyone who has been there will tell you.
Two home matches in and I must say that the atmosphere in and around the ground, before and after the games 'feels' much friendlier than it has done for a long,long time.Away fans seem to want to chat in the pub before the game, on the approach to the ground, and surprisingly after the game walking away from VP.Maybe its just my perception, but its definitely an improvement on previous years.I sure it'll all be just as personable when the 'Rags' and 'Dingles' come to play
The weather has helped! Nice to be at a night match in a t-shirt and feeling hot...

Well I think we either drew or lost but outside some fella was wanting to practice his kung foo moves on me and I was only a 16 year old. Couldn't agree more that they fancy themselves that way.
I was at an Albion game about 15 or 16 years ago when they decided they'd had enough and jumped the barrier in the Smethwick End to give the Stripey Tatters a bit of hiding.They're a rough bunch and I agree that a minority of their fans have the mind set that they see themselves as being handy, so it means they must prove it. Like Leeds and knobbers of that ilk only smaller. The end result is they all have to catch a coach for their local derby with Cardiff.
Loved Bristol City when I went there with Preston and found it really friendly and fun.
