    Whatever, but at least I do know where my real support lies, I have given many years of supporting the red half, why I even took in the odd Match at Eastville, with my Rovers supporting family, never supported them and always hoped they would lose, but never did we fall out and reduce ourselves to a dislike for each other merely because of which team we supported.

    Nothing wrong with banter, nothing at all, but some of the comments seem to cross the line, Bristolian's are renowned for their banter and good humour, it's a shame that there seems to be some rather OTT comments from both sides. I realise, or I should do that you cannot change opinion's if they are intent on disliking each other, but I do ask myself why? We are both football clubs that play the beautiful game, and are both representing this fair City of ours, so it does depress me when we sink to this level.

    Perhaps because I don't live in Bristol I can take a more distant view of things, but when I did, there did seem to be more tolerance of each other, perhaps it is social media that makes it all to east to say things we would never say face to face. I would hope that even that some of you  that have given me stick on here and me you would have a very different view of each other, we are all bonded by the same thing I love of football and of course proud to be Bristolian, whatever are colours.

    If it helps I will not post anymore on this thread, if it helps, so carry on regardless, but just remember I am not the only one who feels that carrying on this way is demeaning to both clubs, except they might not be so vocal.

    Good luck, and carry on then xx 

    If I see X Factor or BGT on the TV in my house I go off and do something else because I don't have any interest in watching the crap, the same here, if you don't want to read it, it's really simple, don't click on the thread and expect it to be something you want to read or have any interest in.

    No need for the backhanded dig there was there? Bloody good on him for plugging and plugging away and not shirking opportunities. I was one who 12m ago was very skeptical, indeed I thought he should've been released this time last year, but his rate of improvement - for me - at least matches the rate that Joe Bryan improved for us. If he keeps up his progress at the same rate for 12m I think we'll be fending off interest  

     

    Nogbad has form for not taking to any of the local lads.

    It's what happens when you take a big profit for your best striker just before the transfer window closes and not replace him. Perhaps he might have been in some of the positions that Reid has taken up and put the ball in the net (Kodjia or a replacement i mean). Possession is great but goals win games.

     

    Yeah, I mean he bagged a hatrick for us against Villa

  4. I don't see them as rivals (not from Bristol nor work there) but my circumstance aside, how could you put these two together as rivals when they operate in different leagues, financial, support and facilities are worlds apart. I've heard the chant of we're coming for you which is laughable. It's like bringing a knife to a gun fight. Let them continue to make fools of themselves, absolute delusion on their part that they are anywhere near a rival.

    Was the one that turned over possession just before their goal. Easy in hindsight and all that, but happens to often really not to be a 'thing'.

    On balance, 0-1 would have been a bit of a smash and grab, so will take what it is.

    Yeah, I highlighted all from the BBC live text during the game, it was 5 times in the end that he was caught offside, to be honest at his age in the position he plays you would think that would be one of the basics you would have nailed.

    Lee Tomlin tries a through ball, but Jonathan Kodjia is caught offside.

    Marlon Pack tries a through ball, but Jonathan Kodjia is caught offside.

    Joe Bryan tries a through ball, but Jonathan Kodjia is caught offside.

     

    I'm sure they are working on this but it happens an awful lot still.

    And another
