Are We The Laughing Stock of The League?

Are fans from other teams laughing at us? 

Yes, they may be sympathetic on the surface but they’re delighting in our plight.

I think they are! 

I remember Blackpool having few players before the season started and I was laughing at them, knew they’d go down, they did.

(If I remember correctly)

So, are we the laughing stock of the league?

    They'll laugh on the other side of their faces if we turn up at Wycombe, Gillingham et al mob handed and they realise they are actually laughing at a proper club who WILL be back sooner rather than la

As Bristol City Fan middling years I have fond memories of various tussles with yourselves , and games over the years at all levels , including Wembley  

Great set of ‘proper’ football fans in all my experiences

Also met many lads , and the odd lass, who were Wanderers , trapping the World following England

All sound as a pound

Wanted to say I have everything crossed for you , you fans , and that some light begins to emerge

As for the rest of ‘The League laughing’ ....or indeed the Football World

My advice is there will always be ***** , especially on Social Media who will laugh and goad - The Football World And Supporters of all sorts I’ve spoken to , or read are in fact extremely sympathetic , and hopeful that things will turn around , or at least stop sliding

Please remember that -

I know at this **** time it won’t help much , you want to see some sign of future , but please don’t concern yourselves with ***** who follow other Clubs

The massive majority don’t laugh , they sympathise....

And the few who gloat

****** *******

 

Many Of you won’t recall , but we nigh on went to the wall in 1982 , I went to what was to be our final game at Newport, we survived , just but slid from Div 1 - 4 , ended up playing 16/17 year olds and a few freebies and fell to the bottom of Div Four

Looking back the slow survival and then growth back (Ironically the Wembley game v you was probably a significant point) was one of the best and happiest periods of my 50 years of support, the hardcore fan base sticking by them and seeing a slow rebirth

Hang in there Boys n Girls, everything crossed for you

’Wanderers Till You Die’ 

Always

Cheers, much appreciated.

We also had some dark days in the 80s, but our current plight is darker still.

We'll be back one day!!

I have fond memories of days/nights on the piss in Bris, i had mates from Yate + Fulton.

Long since lost touch with the lads, but they were Bristol City fans and always up for a laugh and a jar or two!

A city fan came living up here late 80s to marry a Bolton fan. I think his lad is now a home and away city fan
