Bristol City to lay on buses to get fans to women's games

After the success of the England women's football team winning the European Championships, Bristol City are to lay on buses from the city centre to their women's team home games.

The Bristol City WFC team play at the Robins' High Performance Centre training ground at Failand, which has a capacity of 1,500, after switching to the new facility from Stoke Gifford last year. With increasing demand to see top quality women's football in Bristol, the Robins are laying on two buses each way to all home games - apart from the ones that are scheduled to be played at Ashton Gate itself.

Bristol City Women play in the FA Women's Championship, the second tier of English women's football. They had been in the WSL but were relegated in 2021 and narrowly missed out on a swift return to the top flight last season with a third place finish, although City striker Abi Harrison was the top scorer in the division with 17 goals.
