glastonred Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Listening to SC's interviews on 'Player' I must say that it grates the ear to hear him refer to us as "Bristol", and not "City". Perhaps someone could have a quiet word to ask him to get the name right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why, everyone knows who he is talking about when he says Bristol, there's only one team in Bristol after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bs4_bcfc Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 i must admit that does my head in. when pudits or commentators and sometimes other managers refer to us "bristol" and not as "city" or "bristol city". i dont know why just annoys me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocketscrot Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 i must admit that does my head in. when pudits or commentators and sometimes other managers refer to us "bristol" and not as "city" or "bristol city". i dont know why just annoys me well the main positive is because they dont clasify bristol as having more then 1 team. You would not hear people/ media talking about manchester or sheffield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myol'man Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 It annoys gasheads ten times as much as it annoys us when City are refered to as 'Bristol' it means that they are not even on the radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WellRedPhil Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 He'll learn It's always annoyed me tbf but it is amusing, as people have said Rovers are rarerly referred to as Bristol, only us City boys. But I'd prefer our manager to refer to us as City! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hippo Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Of course id rather people refered to us properly as Bristol City, but I think we should take it as a compliment that we're now often refered to as simply Bristol!! shows how the wider country realy believes there's only one team in Bristol!

Bristol_Mick Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Both Bristol clubs are refered to as Bristol by most of the country. You can take it as a compliment that you are called Bristol if you want but you shouldn't. Its because they have no knowledge of and no respect for either club and you are both the same. It makes me livid and I am a Stokie who just happens to live here! In fact I call both Manchester teams Manchester, to show them the same respect as they show this fine city!

Fiale Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 I have no problem with it, the best way to deal with rivals is to not even acknowledge their existence. As to moaning about being called "Bristol" and insisting on "City" as if that name is somehow more exclusive is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westonred Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Yes it p155es me off as well being referred to only as 'Bristol' by all these so called expert pundits on TV. Bristol is the city we play in, the club is called 'Bristol City' They never refer to Everton as Liverpool or Port Vale as Stoke or even Arsenal, Chelsea or West Ham as London do they !!! So please show us some respect ....... Rant Over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
