  1. I think the Robin means everything initially was fine, no problem, no need to fix anything. We're waiting on the Splat Robin.
  2. I flew over for the Scunthorpe away match. Scunny had 3 different keepers in 20 minutes which is another story). Also, I witnessed Jet taking a pen and scoring.
  3. He didn't have to run as if a fast bowler when taking a penalty either! Even a slow round the wicket spinner was faster than Jet.
  4. And if Andy Scott was the captain and in his pre-match huddle immediately prior to kick-off were Neville, Leaning and Harford, I wonder what his last few words would be....
  5. Aha! I googled and found this.... https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/bristol-basin
  6. Thanks PB for this thread. If I ever get a chance to visit NYC again, my mission will be to track down the plaque! I know there are other City fans living in NYC. Perhaps they could find out if the plaque is still there?
  7. He is indeed. Even his homage to the greatest war film ever made is good. What do you mean Where Eagles Dare isn't true? Dont let fact get in the way! I'm particularly enjoying his current mini-series on the deaths of Mr and Mrs Hitler and the evidence to suggest it might not have been their bodies that were burned. Will Mark reveal that Hitler did indeed move to Argentina (or maybe not as the history books tell us)?
  8. We are and according to this thread it is only available mail order from China. You also get a free pie with every purchase.
  9. Hi Sarumred (Salisbury?) Occasionally this happens to me if I accidentally already opened it on my phone and then open it again. Closing previous tabs then gets it rectified. If this still doesn't work, do a cache clearance in your Google settings.
  10. As a former radio presenter and training officer specialising in interview techniques (and now podcaster) what I liked was how Sheridan seemed more measured and relaxed in her commentary style. Like we would all be in our first few months of commentating, Sheridan has lost that high treble excitedness and relied instead of using decent words to paint the action on the pitch. She clearly demonstrated to me that she loves the game and knew her stuff about our players (and theirs). Sheridan also kept her opinions to a minimum as opposed to others who think they've played at the highest level and know more about the game than say Gary Owers. If you're reading this Sheridan, well done. Hope to hear you again soon when BCFC are playing.
  11. Can I say how good Sheridan Robins was last night as the commentator on Radio Brizz? I can? Sheridan Robins was last good last night as the commentator on Radio Brizz. She never got flustered and joined in with Gary Owers' banter.
  12. Dave will explain all re his (bed) spreadsheets later.
  13. Although Dave, the city robins boffins keep a tight lid on this news until 24 hours prior to the game....either because they don't know how to use the computer to tell us or it's because they want to sell as many away tickets as possible! It has been that way in the past. The whole vpn thing is a joke anyway. You can be honest and complete the details on where you live and watch the game via a vpn. The club and EFL don't care. Yet, for those of us who have an issue with this etc from a legal perspective (blah, blah, blah) can't/won't watch it. The law really is an Arsenal.
  14. Iirc any game that is outside of the no-broadcast zone (ie Saturday afternoon around 3pm ko) is allowed to be broadcast on the football club's own streaming site for UK viewing. The one stipulation is that the home club has the vote as to whether or not to allow it. Swansea last year said no to our game so it wasn't available via Robins tv.
  15. Good news for me though. My travel and airline fares are all OK for the Stoke City home game 30th Sept. Thank you Sky!
  16. Thank you mods. Thanks for not closing this thread or moving it to a different section.
  17. If only Stanley Unwin could explain.
  18. Thanks Dave. Your best flip chart presentation ever!
  19. Yep, Radio Brizz audio feed is working well on Robins TV listen live
  20. I've had some great emails from the streaming team. If you applied for a refund, we will be getting it. They also took the action to at least offer us a tv commentary as it was better than none. I have also suggested that because of my radio background, I'd be more than happy to monitor for a signal prior to ko and report as necessary. This has fallen on deaf ears in the past. I'm sure our issue last Saturday was easily fixable prior to ko if somebody had bothered to read my email I sent them at 2.30pm.
