" Adriano what is it this time?
Cider tales - Welcome to Bristol
A Scunthorpe fan walks into a pub near the Ashton Gate and asks the barman for a pint of Magners. The convivial barman replies "sorry we do not serve that in here as our customers prefer a real cider". The Scunthorpe fan mutters something about dopey Wurzels then asks for a pint of Strongbow. The convivial barman replies "sorry we do not serve that in here as our customers prefer a real cider how about Thatchers". The Scunthorpe fan mutters once again something about f*cking Wurzels then decides he will have a pint of Thatchers. As the cider is being poured the Scunthorpe fan asks for ice to be added to the cider. Quick as a flash convivial barman replies "would you like me to jump across the bar, shag you up the arse and ask if you want ice with that"?
Editorial note - Standards must be maintained in BS3 and a appropriate response would have been to remove the Scunthorpe fan from the premises for uttering such filth.
Shurely shome mistake here?

I sit in the Dolman and have to say that there was a bit more
atmosphere in the stadium today largely due to the diehards
who made the effort to populate the East End.
It certainly made a difference. A better test would have been
with an away side who'd brought more supporters though'

To the first edition of 3LIONS AND A ROBIN which should be quite obvious to all but the seriously appled up is a view of Bristol City totally independent of the club.
The intention is to issue intermittently a pro fan pro East End fanzine promoting all that is good about Bristol City fandom. At a later editions may be available to buy around the ground and any profits will then be put into running the Bristol City Subcider website - http://www.subcider.co.uk/subb plus fan friendly projects like huge banners for the Old Keating stand [know your history chaps] .
Anything will be considered for this zine which is tenuously linked to Bristol City or otherwise and if you wish to contribute any shock token tantrums along with irreverent meanderings sometimes about little in particular please go ahead, it will all be welcome.
Next season we have the opportunity with the opening of
The East End to show exactly how good our support really is.
Mr Lansdown has given us back our end and now it is going to be time to repay that act by constantly getting behind the team. The simple aim of this fanzine as stated is to promote that. By publicising songs new and old, the ideas being formed for banners, flags, badges, anything which will show that our club has support and its own identity to be proud of.
Apologies for the total amateurish bollocks, Crap grammar, spelling mistraks but this is not ever intended as an exercise in syntax Babbers.
The views expressed in this fanzine are not necessarily those of the drunken buffoons who put this together.
Special Thanks to the 3 lions pub West Street
for sponsoring any future fanzines..
