200 police officers on duty for Bristol derby

According to the head of A and S police speaking on BBC Bristol on tuesday morning

So just hope no one lets themselves down.

 

Agreed - best behaviour - show everyone that Bristol football is passionate, but respectful to others

 

No chance, there will be some problems tonight, especially if Rovers win

 

No worries on that front then, hopefully !

 

Went through Bemmy and Temple Meads on way home. Some of Citys characters are already out.

 

I won't be going, because of the likelihood of trouble. It's nice for people on here to say that there shouldn't be any trouble, but we're not fully representative of all parts of our fan base. The kind of fans that are likely to kick off aren't going to be found on here.

I really want this match to go well, and for both sets of supporters to be respectful of each other.

 

Especially as we are both trying to get new stadiums/revamps done!

 

There will be no trouble I can guarantee you. Security up the ass, police will be everywhere

 

There will be trouble in the ground I reckon. It will get a bit heated tonight, First goal will cause a bit of trouble....

 

Bemmy I would expect TBH given that it's close to AG, but Temple Meads ?? Unless of course it's fans that have arrived by train from outside of Bristol

 

NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I think some people are acting like it's a Bristol derby has never happened, there's been millions

 

bet you have never been to a proper one before Lan (that friendly game didn't count ), you are only 16 aint you?

 

Millions? Wasn't aware there had been that many lanny

We've played Cardiff many of times remember, Look at what happened last time we met. Don't think because there are a few police officers stood around that there wont be trouble. I hope there isn't but im sort of expecting it, Win or lose.

 

went to the one in 2002 (when we thrashed you 3-0 in the JPT) and the one in 2007 you cheeky ****!!! and there was no trouble then

The only sort of "trouble" was when there was a pitch invasion in the return leg, and police were all over that

 

Can't see there being any real trouble tonight.

Posturing maybe - trouble no.

The Police are well versed these days in handling idiots.

 

Pretty obvious groups of Citys mob walking through Redcliffe.

 

I saw a group of Rovers supporters walking down Stokes Croft earlier, already looking pretty drunk. Hopefully they'll actually make it to the game...

 

No, that was our team Ender

 

Was there a little cheerleader in a little blue dress as ring leader EnderMB?? If so, Gas is already having a good time
