Below is a reminder of our first game at six-fields groundshare last time we went through this nightmare and what maybe is to come if someone does not find a solution. Also to add the club have always insisted that the club must be self-sufficient and pay there own way - how will this work?? The management and top players I fear will not entertain a ground-share solution and will be long gone before a ball is kicked - Some say it is different this time around?? its all irrelevant as it will add up as things progress I think fewer fans than last time attempting to try and support our team, as many like myself have had enough of this saga

Sixth field first game
As of Friday morning, the Sky Blues had sold only 491 season tickets for the current campaign, with a "guaranteed attendance" of just 1,200 for their opening home match in League One this season, of which 400 are for Bristol City fans.

I've pulled three fingers out but I'm leaving my last finger and thumb in so that she doesn't shit down my arm :)

Still here though aren’t we?

Not gone in to administration or bankruptcy?

Doing well on the football side of things (for the level we are at).

I believe more fans will come to the games this time around than SixFields as it's a slightly different situation, as in CCC/ACL tried to fuck us by courting London Wasps a full year before moving to Northampton and hopefully more people will be clued up on that.

By the way, you missed an absolute cracker of a game tbf, 5-4 to Cov....

He’s right. Crowds of 1000 will mean relegation maybe not next year but the year after and no sign of a return to coventry but Mick is probably right as at some point at some level we will still exist hopefully and possibly

I missed all the good stuff. I held out until November. First game was a stonking 3-0 against Notts County. Remember conceding five against Tranmere that season. If it comes to it I wouldn't mind if Sixfields was the ground share again.

We got lucky with Wilsons goals. Don’t expect a repeat even if the crowds are doubled. Moving stops many young fans from being able to follow their club but hey it gives you guys some fun so that’s ok. Not!!!

Agree would be happy with Sixfields myself, free parking at cinema, and it's a straight shot down the M1 for me from Rugby! Would be the best of the lot in my opinion.
Still think we will be at Ricoh mind you.

Anywhere apart from the ricoh would be a complete nightmare, council have blood on their hands if we get booted from the ricoh

Cobblers fans that I know don't want us back, which is understandable, as they have moved on from the Cardoza days.

I would attend this time round though, as the causal factors are different. We need to stick together as fans and get behind the team - its all we can do in this sorry mess.

Has anything been planned for tomorrow at all with regards to protest (or meet and greet!) at the council and or wasps as we have a free Saturday? I'd have thought tomorrow would be one of the last chances people have to highlight feelings to all parties.

I agree, but no one gives a fuck if the Council has done anything wrong, do they? Look at Twitter, The Trust, many many people on here.

The people that don't think the council have done anything wrong are idiots, the trust don't represent most of us fans

Ask the Sky Blue Trust!!! (Oh no, they are now "too busy with day jobs" etc to organise anything on a weekend.... after their midweek joke of a jolly down to London!) Silence from them is telling.
I'm IN for anything tomorrow if somebody can get something together... have said before... I'd happily even pay to get into Ricoh tomorrow if something is sorted.

I guess we got lucky with Clarke's, Baker's and Moussa's goals too, right?!
As an encouraging supporter, I go/went and do just that for the team....as far as having fun, you have seen City prior to the last 2 years I'm assuming!!?

Very tempted indeed to attend the game and support Worcester Warriors with a "Council/Wasps Out" flag in tow.
Only thing with the wasps game is that we'd be giving them money with the ticket, anyone got any freebies seeing as they give out so many all the time?

is there a game on at the RICOH? I am sure the WASPs would appreciate a high presence of City Supporters welcoming their guests into (our) Stadium
