Bath City FC is a proper old-school football club, steeped in history and character. Founded in 1889, the Romans (as they’re known) play at Twerton Park, a ground that’s refreshingly untouched by corporate gloss. Expect classic terraces, a cracking atmosphere, and a sense of community that modern stadiums can’t replicate.
Twerton Park has that charmingly weathered feel—part temple for the beautiful game, part time capsule. It’s hosted everything from league giants to local drama, including a stint as Bristol Rovers’ temporary home. The tea hut serves up proper football fare, and the fans are passionate but welcoming.
Described by comedian Bill Bailey as "proper old-school. Crumbling walls, crap pies and disappointment. That sums it up really." ;-)
Matchdays here are about more than just football; they’re a nostalgic throwback to when the game felt a little purer. If you love football with heart, history, and a proper non-league vibe, Bath City is well worth a visit. Just don’t expect heated seats—this is football as it should be.
