infoman Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 I see the ticket allocation for next weeks visit is 2,400,is there any update on how sales are going? Please buy your tickets in advance there is no pay on the day,and this won't be changed There is no hard copy match day programmes any more, although a City fan is producing a match day programme TRAINS if your coming by train,please have your tickets issued to Parson Street as it helps us try and get a new train station nearer to Ashton Gate Trains from London or Birmingham direction arrive in good time for the 13:26 13:54 and 14:26 from Bristol temple meads to Parson Street It takes you two thirds of the way to the ground and walk the rest of the way Our most famous player,John Atyeo,has a statue by the club superstore between the corner of the Lansdown and South stand. The congestion zone has arrived which includes some areas around Ashton Gate,even the council don't like us. Check if your car is compliant HERE www.bristol.gov.uk/residents/streets-travel/bristols-caz/charges-and-vehicle-checker Coming by road. Do NOT USE M4/M32 route and don't attempt to negotiate the roads and streets of Bristol If you are coming by road use M4/M5 southbound to junction 18(Avonmouth) then follow signs A4 Bristol airport It looks the long way round but its quicker. Parking is normally in the streets around the area as long as you are there by 13:00pm please don't block drive ways or park on corners. Casualty and Holby City were filmed in the City don't ask me about either of the programmes because I think their both rubbish The young ones was also filmed in the BS7 area of the City(actually its Bishopston) Finally the block of flats on the left behind the dolman stand side as you are in the away end is "the" block of flats in "fools and horses" Bring your camera and turn up early if you want to take any photo's Pubs not sure of which ones will be open,possibly best one are in the cumberland road basin area novia scotia pump house and the cottage. BBC Radio station is radio Bristol which has frequencies and 94:9 and DAB (and 95:5 up till 3pm), and the match commentary will be on BBC radio Bristol Please circulate to any other football forums and footy fans you may deem fit If you need any further info,don't be afraid to ask 4 2 Quote
mkowl Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 At this rate we will be lucky if we have a coach and players that will turn up for the game Quote
