Bristol City owner Steve Lansdown believes Robins fans have “a lot to look forward to” as he prepares to embark on the 25th year of his association with the club.
Lansdown first joined the City board in 1996, his influence and financial backing growing over the decades before becoming majority shareholder in 2007. To date, the Bristolian billionaire has invested £214million of his personal fortune in the club but with the ultimate goal of Premier League football eluding the Robins.
Despite finishes of 17th and 19th over the last campaigns, City have sold in excess of 13,000 season tickets for 2022/23. A major source of pride to the owner, and what he believes is a driver of the impressive levels of interest are the arrivals of new signings Kal Naismith, Kane Wilson and Mark Sykes, coupled with the growing number of academy-produced players making the transition from Under-23s football to the first-team.
