Welcome to Ashton Gate

by DavidLloydBCFC » 08 Sep 2015 17:06

Away fans are very welcome at Ashton Gate, and you can find more details of how to find us at: http://www.bcfc.co.uk/club/find_us/

Please note: away fans are not able to pay on the day, and seating is sold on a strictly reserved basis – you must go to your allocated seat.

We are currently undergoing a major stadium redevelopment, and this season away fans have moved to the eastern corner of the Atyeo stand – access via Ashton Road. There are kiosks in the away area where you can buy food and drink. Our staff were recently voted the friendliest in the entire Football League, so you should receive a cordial welcome from our stewarding and security team. We also have volunteer Matchday Hosts situated at key points around the ground who will be able to answer any questions you might have.

Please also be aware that there will be no access through the stadium footprint to the Atyeo Stand from the opposite end of the ground. You will have to walk round via Winterstoke Road, Marsh Road and Ashton Road. Please allow enough time to do this if you are approaching Ashton Gate from the south.

Any supporters with mobility issues who will have difficulty accessing the stadium from designated parking or drop-off points should contact our Disability Liaison Officer Nick Lloyd: nick.lloyd@bristol-sport.co.uk, or by phoning 0117 963 0609

Because of the redevelopment, parking is severely restricted – there is nothing available on site. Disabled fans should contact supporter services on 0117 963 0600 (option 1) for details of the limited disabled spaces which are available for blue badge holders.

There might be some on-street parking available near the ground if you arrive early enough. Bedminster cricket club (http://bedminstercc.co.uk/) usually offers secure parking with a bar and food. Please check with them that this is available for this fixture. They are just a five minute walk from the ground. There is also parking available at private sites on Ashton Vale road.

Away fans should avoid pubs on North Street, but the Nova Scotia (https://plus.google.com/101810562007798 ... l=uk&hl=en) and the Pump House (http://www.the-pumphouse.com/) welcome well-behaved away supporters. They are a 15 minute walk from the ground.

Any queries, please drop me an email at david.lloyd@bcfc.co.uk.

I like the idea that there will be a kiosk serving fans with things. Do you know if there are any Quavers available?

So, as ever, it will be the away fans who are most inconvenienced by major stadium development.

Why the fcuk should we have to "allow time" to walk miles in order to take our seats?

Why can't away fans buy tickets at the ground on the day? Because you don't want us to.

There are venues up and down the country where one can encounter fewer neanderthals not only at the ground but also on the streets to and from the ground.

I'd advise those planning to attend to select a more pleasant afternoon on another day in more pleasant surroundings.

I'm sure you don't need to be told that 'blond' without the 'e' is the male noun.

Sorry should be:

That's less true of some, however.

Can't guarantee it's still the same but a couple of years ago The Nova Scotia used to serve some really good beers and cider, as well as some really hearty food at good prices - lots of the old favourites plus some massive doorstep sandwiches. The pub dog was also entertaining trying to catch one particular seagull who felt the dog had invaded its territory and kept dive bombing it!

The Nova Scotia is a typical old style pub (not quite spit and sawdust) The Pump House is one of the new trendy outfits and the prices of food and drink really do reflect the different styles i.e. The Pump House is damn expensive by comparison!

David, talk to us about your absolutely disgusting pricing policy for this match...

£30 an adult to sit in a building site is pretty poor form in my opinion, whilst £18 for a child aged 11 an under is scandalous.

The irony is not lost on me that your club complained about ticket prices for your recent trip to Sheffield Wednesday.

Care to make any comments?
