14,000 says it all really!

Sun Aug 26, 2012 1:30 am

This very poor attendance for a Severn side derby just goes to show that Cardiff City are not even box office for the worzels anymore! That figure is less than what attended in the 80's & 90's for 3rd & 4th division games. Like the Bristol fans were singing ("Your not Cardiff anymore!") & judging by this attendance they're right!. :old:

It was worse last season, and we never have big attendances when they visit.

You dickhead - this was no slight on Cardiff City - it just goes to show how disenchanted Bristol City fans are with their team that just avoided relegation last season! :evil:

Re: 14,000 says it all really!

Sun Aug 26, 2012 10:15 am

But we sold our allocation Chief. The attendance has nowt to do with us. It's the Bristol fans not believing in there team or is football just to damn expensive now ?

Bristol here,what does that say about your crowds then??
Look at the last 30 years and our average has been bigger than yours for about 25 of them.( if you don't believe me then look it up :D )

To be honest so was I, the last couple seasons have been poor and a lot have become disgruntled.
But it was a poor turn out on our part yesterday,fair play to your support and selling out. :ayatollah:
When the prices were dropped at the end of last season we sold out,so money is obviously a reason.
But if we were to win a few then the part timers will turn out again!

Evryone's missing the point; It matters not how well CCFC /BCFC /SWNCUM FC /WORZAL ROOOVRRRRS/'''''''''''''''All form goes out of the window, weather your top middle or bottom of the league these games have always been significant, Even Aunt Sally and Granmar worzal would't miss a visit from Cardiff City, Less numbers but same notion with Worzal roooovrs. And anyone that thinks Bristol City is a small Club obviously havn't been around long enough to know that isn't quite correct, Both sets of Fans always had good numbers for a Severn side Derby, And what people are forgetting is that the CCS is scorned at from a huge number of genuine Cardiff fans. The quiet dull atmosphere is also disappointing for visiting fans, Theres no point taking large numbers to a Cardiff match any more as there's not even a singing contest to be won. Truth is even the worzals have lost interest in Us, have a look at BC next home Atn and see if its under 15000? :old:

We are Bristols Biggest rivals, It's nothing to do with our club why they didn't sell out...... Oh i know lets blame the rebrand! Malaysians out!!!!! :roll:

So why did they have thousands more to play us than they did the game before vs Palace, where the gate was just over 12000 ?

Good song by the way, but on this one you are just talking crap.

You certainly haven't had bigger crowds than us for the past 5-6 seasons thats for sure beyond that

I've just taken a look at some stats, we'll be above you without doubt in.
11/12
10/11
09/10
08/09

also just checked
and we win
06/07, 04/05, 03/04, 02/03,01/02,

05/06 you win -by 5 :lol:
and also 07/08
Thats 9 of the last 11 seasons.

No doubt you would have had the better before that, but this is the 21st century now :ayatollah:

However I'm sure with a new ground you'd soon be up nearer 20k.

But Cardiff city attracted a record attendance of over 25000 at Brighton on Tuesday night !! :? :? :oops:

Bristol - Cardiff derby has been killed by all the restrictions. Yesterday was start of it perhaps being revived but will take a long time and Bristol will need to start bringing some to us!
