  1. Me too! And Bentley's arty shirts, specifically designed to put off opposing forwards.
  2. Thank you Watson. I recall the curious case as follows. https://www.google.com/amp/s/sport.wikireading.ru/amp40565 Your humble servant Sherlock Holmes
  3. We wore 'Edwardian Blue' shirts, white shorts and black socks for the 1909 Cup Final, so, why not?
  4. I was only suggesting the crimson and gold (bantam colours) for an away strip. Honest. Imagine proposing a non-red home strip. This forum would be in meltdown. Probably.
  5. Dammit John! I need to find my special place now. Calm. Calm. Calm Calm. Calm. Semenyooooooooooooo. I'm fine now. You were saying? ? Have a safe and enjoyable trip to Ewood John.
  6. This season saw City return to their 1954/55 Division 3 South Championship winning strip, aka, the one that looks like Arsenal. Boring history buffs like me, without a life love these shout outs to kits past, because it freshens up the usual mundane block colours of red and white. But why stop there? City forerunners Bedminster wore 'Bradford City' colours, below. How would that look as an away strip for one season? And the home kit featured different coloured shorts and socks in our infancy. How about the Bristol South End strip from 1894/95? Similar to Spain and Chile. Or maybe the 1906/07 strip with black socks, that accompanied our second placed finish in the old First Division. Or this that a bit too Man United for you? We beat them to the Second Division title the previous year - and won 14 consecutive League matches. Still a Football League record. You can view all City home kits on the Historical Kits website; Bristol City - Historical Football Kits (historicalkits.co.uk)
  7. Thanks. Its a very exciting time for City and we're on an upward trajectory. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
  8. See everyone! We can always aspire to be better. Thanks fella.
  9. Thanks for thinking of me. Life's difficult when you're surrounded by custard creams and jammy dodgers.
  10. Huddersfield [H] review ….. this Beast is on fire!! (podbean.com) Is there no stopping Antoine Semenyo? His 3rd goal in a week of coming on as a sub and the finish this time was emphatic. City rose to seventh in the Championship with this win that keeps the unbeaten run going before a testing yet less intensive sequence of fixtures in September. DaveP hosts Neil, Ian and Mark whose sound problems are at last banished!!!
  11. Bob Marley.....No Weimann No Cry. Brings tears to my eyes that one.
  12. Plus a match summary from a very happy idiot. From 08:26 Sport: Post-match - 31/08/2022 - BBC Sounds
  13. And it was Wig Wam Bam!!!
  14. How a game can turn in an instant! From the Terriers Pat Jones hitting the post, to Atkinson's long pass and THAT goal from Antoine. Sensational. Wonderful Wells, City's exciting, attacking football, with fantastic pressing and Kal's nerve jingling 'interventions'. Enjoy the highlights.
  15. Yes. Apparently the Notts County keeper and JET were frozen in carbonite and are on display in the national football museum to commemorate this unique event.
  16. Oh those wonderful days under Steve Cotterill. Did you know the man can actually walk on cider. Incredible. Purple, Reign, Purple Reign. Purple Reign, Purple Reign! (Sorry Prince, couldn't resist)
  17. I watch the games on Channel 9. Methetheth, methethetheth Aleex Scott, passalaball....................................................Tommy Conway, scorchio!!!!!! Bono Estente.
  18. That was why midweek games were moved to the 7.45pm slot.
  19. I remember when midweek games kicked off at 7.30pm with a 10-minute half-time break.
  20. David Squires on … the panicked finale of the transfer window | Transfer window | The Guardian Our cartoonist on the impending closure of the summer transfer window for Premier League clubs Here's a taster....
