Shtanley Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 I'm joined by Pete and City's former head of communications Adam Baker to discuss yet another woeful City loss and performance. What needs to happen to stop the rot? How soon do we need a new head coach? Why are we so woeful going forward? All these questions are poorly answered in the newest episode of OSIB.

RiverRed Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Good episode folks. Good to hear the dulcit tones of Mr Baker. His voice reminds me of the days when we used to score goals. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the club used to communicate properly with fans and the social media was ran by a fan who cares instead of a bunch of 12 year olds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordy62 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 I miss Adam Baker. Although it might surprise you to hear that I take issue with; “Lee Johnson very nearly got us promoted to the Premier League both as a player and a manager!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brady bunch Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Adam Baker was excellent on the pod as always. His summery of the current situation with the players was both honest and accurate, roughly: they were still trying for Holden as they liked him, but nothing was working and nerves and fatigue has set in, Jamie P rushed back and unfit". I don't think any of the players were trying to get him the sack, not even Nakki Wells, even though he has been playing like he was!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedZepperin Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Very valuable input from Adam on the footballing side of things, communications, and trips down memory lane. Would be great if he coincided with another ex-employee (David Lloyd) at some stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Yep, always liked Adam. Although he had to tow the line to a certain extent, he was very much one of us, imo. No wonder he didn't fit the mould of the current regime. Really enjoyed his contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shahanshahan Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Listened to the episode yesterday evening; was great to see more former City staff in the episodes (following former SLO & matchday announcer David Lloyd in the previous one). I've only been listening to OSIB since last summer (when I saw Stanley on Robins TV, and thought "wow, if he's big enough to appear on there, then surely the podcast is a big deal", but still subscribe to it! I even use OSIB as some inspiration when I do the Bristol City Vixencast podcast. Keep up the good work! P.S. Stanley, your signature still says "One Stream in Bristol is the only fan-produced Bristol City podcast. Listen to it if you're reading this. The podcast's twitter: https://twitter.com/OSIBPodcast". I hope BS3 Talk and 3PIAPC don't mind that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skin Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Thought no mention of Cotterill when he was lamenting managers leaving was quite telling. Cotts gave us a fantastic year, but I found his snarling interviews pretty poor. Must have been very uncomfortable work dealing with him after he'd lost. Should still treat your our media team with some respect no matter how pissed off you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
054123 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Good episode again. Looking forward to your thoughts post Boro , especially with Nige coming in. Will @Olébe on soon? Would be interested to hear his thoughts on the last 7 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotts for the most part was excellent when I was in the media team - helped by the fact we enjoyed the 14/15 season. I remember Colchester away (3-2) and Derby away (4-0) being particular ‘treading eggshells’ moments post-match. Media team = easy target post game for managers/coaches/players to vent sometimes.

Good to hear. Really felt for some of you guys when you had to ask questions you knew would provoke a response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
