Don't usually respond to the petty side of this forum, but I have seen you mention your like count a couple of times. You have 8000ish "reactions" not likes. This includes the negative ones that we used to have and the, ahem, "aubergine" one nowadays. Even if it was all likes you have over 30k posts, not a great return to be honest. E.g. steviestevieneville who you responded to has 4k likes in 4k posts. You talk a fairly equal amount of bollocks to sense in my view, but don't use meaningless internet points to try to convince people otherwise.

Robin1988 Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 Ian is the biggest armchair reporter you’ll ever see. Didn’t he run away from OTIB because people didn’t think he was as great as he did? The way he talks on Twitter you’d think he was as many others have said a former pro or someone inside the club. In his head, I imagine he is. Don’t listen to RB much any more but had the misfortune to be brought into a state of depression by his analysis after QPR last week. We’d just won our ninth game in a row with a last minute goal, I think someone told him we’d just been relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hampshire Red Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 Thanks for the support Big C. Most proper (regular home and away fans) I know turn off radio Bristol after a game even if we've won when Mark and Ian come on..And I'm sorry to advise you GT is not fair-handed and never will be. His questioning may not appear biased but by definition is because he treats both clubs as if they are the same; with the same fan base (24k to 6k) playing the same opposition (Norwich A. Leeds H. // Accrington). This is hugely biased in favour of the little club he loved and against the club he hated. So a show with GT and negative Ian is a 'mare to listen to.

Curr Avon Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 @Hampshire Red has always got plenty to say about City. I propose that he calls Radio Bristol this very Saturday - post-match - to give us all the benefit of his expertise. All those in favour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Mark 1 said anything idiotic, think he said it as it was....which in fairness to him he usually does. He has no agenda. Ian is very negative, tries to come across like he is Pep, but is so set in his ways he can’t see a good performance or result anymore. Ain't I lucky that after home games I'm in the car and don't put the radio on and after away matches, I get cooking the dinner. So I never listen to all the calls from supporters of any side. GT could play a recording from ten years ago and it would still be the same dross radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I can't say I've noticed a gas bias from GT, certainly not in the most recent years. Considering he's ex gas, I think he's really quite good, especially his interviews with the powers that be where he asks proper questions and doesn't tow the line. I met him on the golf course a few years ago and he genuinely loves his football, particularly Liverpool, he spent quite a while chatting to a friend and myself in the 19th hole. He's okay is GT.

Gert Mare Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 “Mark” is typical of most Gasheads that I know. It really is pathetic. They are absolutely bricking it at the thought that we could go up. Bricking it. Even dare to mention anything City related right now and it is pounced upon aggressively by the Rovers braindeads. I think the real problem for them is that their own club is heading down the shitter and the future looks very grim, and so any success for us in their eyes is a direct attack on them and instead of channeling their frustrations towards their own club they act all Narcissistic about it. It’s such a childish mentality. I pity them for having chosen the wrong club to support but it really isn’t anything to do with City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change the contributors, End of! Sorry to advise you Twentyman isn’t the sports editor neither does he decide who gets called, so the coverage bias if any is nothing to do with him! FWIW it’s a championship team and a league 1 team. They’ll put whoever rings in on air. In terms of match coverage, Yeovil get the same (albeit on worse frequencies) so I’m afraid you’re wide of the mark pal. But if you want to redress the balance of coverage, ring in.
