FFS Tony, I don’t have the slightest interest in TM.The only way I realise TM is online is when I see the usual aubergine icon.......... He/she rarely posts anything of note. Does not contribute to any debates or voice an opinion on anything City or football related and can only be on otib to try and insult me - why I don’t know. Never met her/him. It’s all a bit odd but it does seem very like an obsession - weird I know............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 7 hours ago, Westcountry Robins said: LK no eye on the detail. Also worth noting the decline in sub-ed standards at the BEP for example James Piercey’s article on Ashley Williams yesterday used ‘which’ where ‘whom’ was required. Disgraceful. James Piercy is the sports editor at the EP these days, too. He sets the bar high! City and the EP have inexperienced people in senior roles because they can get away with paying them a pittance while selling the pipe dream of a career in journalism.

Also maybe something to do with local media imploding the last 10-20 years and the reason clickbait articles have surged in many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people still bought newspapers in good volumes, you’d get great headlines like Super Caley go ballistic Celtic are atrocious. As nobody buys newspapers, the publishers give the news away for free, then target keywords for SEO to outrank the other publisher. Typos and errors occasionally slip through the net in the media - but there’s no excuse for the volume of them on the City site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted August 20, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Watch tonight's video of the team arriving for the latest classic embarrassment The guy recording asks "Who's that?" as someone gets off of the coach. A voice behind replies "That's no one.....that's just one of the goalkeeping coaches " Lesson number one when recording remember to STFU ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshtonPark Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 I know the club copy and paste their articles, but shouldnt they get someone to check before putting it online? There seems to be so many errors lately. On the Preview for Brentford its still mentioning Preston, no doubt with the club checking OTIB it will be changed shortly. good form away from home, off the back of their 3-3 draw at Deepdale. MATCH DETAILS Date: Wednesday, October 2nd 2019 Kick-off: 7.45pm Competition: Sky Bet Championship Where: Griffin Park Officials: Oliver Langford (referee), Akil Howson and Graham Kane (assistants), Craig Hicks (fourth official) HEAD TO HEAD Bristol City v Preston North End: W: 28 (35%) 18 L: 34 FORM - Last five games (all competitions) Bristol City: WDWDD Brentford: LWLDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 Was looking at Club charter and came across this little gem. Quote SUPPORTER LIAISON OFFICER Our Supporter Liaison Officer is Ryan Corrigan. He is able to answer any questions you may have about any aspect of the way in which the club is run. If they are unable to answer your question directly, they will refer it to the appropriate member of staff. Matt is contactable via e-mail to slo@bcfc.co.uk. You can also write to Ryan at Ashton Gate Stadium, Ashton Road, Bristol BS3 2EJ. Spot the (deliberate?) mistake- does anyone proof this stuff??
