A close look at the user names and descriptors of posters on here would quickly put paid to that idiotic idea. I've lived in the US, Australia, London, Leeds, Kent, Hampshire, Dorset, Somerset as well as east Bristol, but never south Bristol. The main difference I've found between City fans I encounter and Gasheads, is we actually go to games, whereas most Gasheads "haven't been for yonks". Not to watch Rovers anyway.
