Once again we’ve delved into the programme collection of MILES McCLAGAN (@TheSkyStrikers) and came across some wonderful oddities over at BRISTOL CITY. We insist you to visit his site to enjoy more HERE
If there’s one thing they loved down at Ashton Gate it was messing about with animals; from the PG Tips monkeys to performing seals, the Robins couldn’t get enough of horsing around.
They also liked to partake in a little bit of dress up when not out on the pitch.
In fact, football seemed to just get in the way of the busy social life of the Bristol City side of the 1970s. Here they are on a tour of the local sausage making factory.
When not raiding the dress-up box or stuffing the suspicious pork meat into local bangers, the players had ample other distractions to keep them busy – from the Sex Pistols to sexy birds (TM the 1970s) with the rock n’ roll attraction of a bowling green under the new stand, Bristol City was the place to be.
Dodgy numberplate there at the end. Different times though eh? Can’t imagine John Terry and a few of the Chelsea lads visiting a sausage factory these days.
