Just hasn't got the voice for it imho. I think @cynic summed it up - he's much less clear than anybody else on the PA system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shtanley Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 What I will say is that I hope we don't go down the route of numerous other stadiums I've been to where music is often the only source of atmosphere. Don't get me wrong I like songs at halftime and before the game but when they're blasted at you in order to get you up for the match it's a bit annoying. Same with songs that teams run out to, when massive attack got asked to write us a song for the team to run out to they refused and said we should run out to the noise of the crowd.

Dave L Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 That's a real shame, and a very puzzling decision. I always enjoyed working with Tim and felt he had a great fan's perspective of what's required on a matchday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is who I think it is, thought she came across reasonably well - ok, a little bit too polished for a football club - but was never aware of any of this being alluded to. DM appreciated if needs be. I assume everyone is talking about Lisa Knights. Like most "professional" media types she comes across as someone who is faking interest in the subject matter and has no real connection with the club. So will we end up with another ex-sky crony now? Or some corporate bullshit like Septic Peg suggested. Bristol Sport seem to go out of their way to piss football fans off, I expect most would rather have someone down to earth with their heart in it.

RedM Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 Such a wrong decision, I don't even know @Tim S personally but I am bewildered and outraged at the same time how the club can get it so wrong, again and again. Without question Downsey should be getting the push, he is absolutely shite and an embarrassment to the club. All we need is him to rock up in a god awful training top and I'm done.

Wolf Island Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 All the best to @Tim S However I must take issue with the mudslinging at LK. She is a great ambassador for the club and in my eyes can do no wrong. Highlight of my week watching her working the mic and I'd love to see her sporting the new home kit in front of the cameras v soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFChris Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 Cheer up, Tim. You know what they say. Some things in life are bad, They can really make you mad. Other things just make you swear and curse. When you're chewing on life's gristle, Don't grumble, give a whistle! And this'll help things turn out for the best And always look on the bright side of life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 I've heard that the change was made so that the customer experience will be more in keeping with the Bristol sport ethos. Defeats will be called 'alternative scorelines' and questions over the attendance will be met with 'alternative facts Kellyanne Conway. Welcome to BS3.
