StGeorge Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) Why is the Post's coffin different from the original? or shall we just make up s**t (the Post, not OTIB of course!) Edited May 9, 2021 by StGeorge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) There have been some unfortunate insulting exchanges today, especially on the 'Pearson post-match interview' thread, the usual attacking the poster rather than the post etc., but at least, for the most part, there was also some supporting dialogue accompanying the insults. One unsavoury, single word insult was directed to our friend @RalphMilnesLeftFoot, somewhat ironic in its terminology, and I am sure she will be amused to see our old computer friend 'Excel' himself, pun totally intended, with his contribution to today's Rovers match thread.

So this bloke is a hero ? ......."one BRAVE chap....." So it's brave to vandalize someone's work is it? I don't remember them using those words when something like a Banksy is defaced ! And,from where do they get this "half" of Bristol ? Utter rag . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redsi2 Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 If all the gas heads can constantly throw at us is something that happened nearly 40 years ago in 1982, long before many city fans were born (but I guess the blue half havent many fans born since then) it just shows what a pitifull existence they have had since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of their biggest problems. Their fan base is getting older and it sounds like they struggle to attract new fans. The cricket, basketball and rugby are probably more appealing to the youth than spending their money at the Mem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on. Imagine being a young kid nowadays, you see the large, brand new Premier League stadiums on TV. The amazing football skills. The tens of thousands of fans. And then you get taken to the Mem.

BS3City Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Whilst experiencing the usual aggravation trawling through any article on the Bristol Post website I found the following picture particularly pertinent - I might be wrong but this CCTV image of the "coffin vandal" looks like the perpetrator isn't exactly in the early stages of youth. They're barely attracting minimal new, fresh support at best. This is just some fat old Sag fart doing his best to try and maintain an appearance of parity between the two clubs. The gap has never been wider and they know it. FTG 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 75 Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Fair play to Rovers fans sold just over 2000 season tickets. Just under half the size of the Atyeo stand. Faithful and true. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The delusion still exists. I’m sure Wally wants to do right by the club. Yeah, I mean he’s been a loyal, true and ‘prowed’ supporter since his early schooldays in Amman, and of course he was a regular when at university in Boston, Massachusetts. Wake up fella. He’s doing right by himself, his own pocket and his own desire to be ‘in’ football. You’ll be a long forgotten blip on his CV is 10 years time.

It’s all 82, Dean Windass, inbreds, obsessed, KFC, Europe and the usual pathetic attempt at taking some sort of moral high ground (standard playing of the innocent victim) when those ***** put up banners at the bottom of the M32, wear Windass shirts around Sainsbury’s, invite Windass as a special guest to their Tote End One Tooth Reunions suck up to him and take him up Chasers. This has really hit a nerve with the fewers and has managed to drag them out from hiding under their stones.

Rich Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 I like the post article claiming this bit of banter has backfired, really? I would say it had exactly the desired effect and resulted in some bitter and twisted gashead, getting his knickers in such a twist that he's now got to buy more paint to finish off his hallway. And they also describe him as brave, 11.23 pm, in the dark, pub closed and about twenty seconds to pull up and pour. Bet he put wet paint footprints into his car as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great work "Tote End One Tooth Reunions suck up" It has a certain affinity with their cretinus dwindling fan base That made me chuckle take a bow sir!
