pikeysrobins Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Is it me or are the interviews on player incredibly pointless and boring, uninspiring, and above all REPETITIVE especially the questions!?? The IQ of both interviewer and interviewees comes across as incredibly low! The questions are the sort a five year old might ask! The responses give you absolutely nothing of an insight into things, always state the bloody obvious, and if Pearson, Cunningham, or anyone else say 'like you say' one more time I'll....I'll.....!!!!! Just wasted 8 mins of my life watching drivel!!! Thank goodness for the football highlights!! COYR against the florists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikeysrobins Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 I already have in the pas What questions would you suggest ? Pass them onto Adam Baker and I am sure he would be pleased with some constructive comment. I already have!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SODS_LAW Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Its no longer Adam Baker conducting interviews, i started a thread identical to this a few days ago. How can the inerviewer not ask about incoming transfers !!!!!!! Our media department is going down hill fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Had a look at P'boro website when GJ was in charge, they had 15/20 minute set piece interviews with their players which were quite illuminating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Problem is, its Bristol City staff interviewing their own players and won't obviously won't be allowed to ask any 'searching' questions and the players won't want to say anything controversial or revealing. McInnes's interviews are becoming dull and repetitive. He trots out the same platitudes when City win lose or draw. Same'o,l same ol. Despite subscribing to Player I rarely watch the interviews these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sounds like a nervous child asks the manager 'Who's your favourite player?' 'What was your favourite match?' You get the drift!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeh Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 so I'm right in thinking that people on here have been moaning about lack of interviews and feel the club and players have drifted away from the fans, Now they have done interview with players and done a piece to bring fans closer to the players now you moaning its boring? I don't why the club bothers they can't please you, as for robbo's comments on McInnes you may find it bland but its a million times better then anything your boyfriend kieth millen said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ison Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I agree that Player content is fairly uninspiring. In some ways it's run like the team behind it are subjected to the same rules and regulations as a national news broadcaster. I'm sure there's plenty of scope for less box ticking and more creativity. That said, I can't come up with anything off the top of my head. Would it be worth starting a thread for people to list their suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chivs Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Is Dave L taking the piss? Who the hell cares!! God this club live under a rock at times. If he mentions the Wurzels then we know his heart is in the right place but he hasn't got any musical taste. Sounds interesting to me. Could someone let me know his three favourite peices of music? I've got a Player subscription but haven't bothered looking for about three months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont need a player subscription to listen to the podcast. Its FREE for all fans to listen to on the website or download. http://www.bcfc.co.u...2887126,00.html The interviews are slightly different to what you hear on player, we are trying to get to know the players a bit better rather than asking the usual obvious questions. We do talk to them about the games and get the latest from Derek McInnes too but in general we hope you will enjoy the content! And as for Jody Morris musical selection... its a new feature where players chose three songs that mean something to them which we will play pre-match against Palace when the players are warming up. Musical Youth - Pass the dutchie New Order - World in Motion Jay Z - Empire State Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musical Youth - Pass the dutchie New Order - World in Motion Jay Z - Empire State OK, thanks for the clarification. I'll listen to the podcast when I get a chance. As to Morris' selection I can confirm that his heart is not in the right place and he hasn't got any musical taste (although New Order do buck that trend).

Guest Threshersleftboot Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Is Dave L taking the piss? Who the hell cares!! God this club live under a rock at times. I would be interested in what Jody's favourite jam flavour is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Does Lansdown kiss you on the cheek when he tucks you in at night? You are without doubt the biggest sycophant on these boards. Every post: 1) Sarcastic answer 2) Praise and defend club/media/player/Lansdown 3) Be abusive to poster. Every topic with the slightest criticism of anything BCFC...along comes Lansdowns Lapdog. Have you not got a mind of your own man? I'm at least the fifth person to comment on your constant fawning. Please stop. Its getting very sad now. Thankyou.

Guest BASSO Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 listening to the podcast now questions to anderson - "were you good at P.E at school?" hmmmmm "was it a special day for you when you signed for west brom as a kid" ....................

Guest BASSO Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 in fairness theres not a lot you can do when im guessing you have to work within strict guidelines but the podcast was absolutely terrible. so bad infact that i want to listen again just to trash it. heres a suggestion guys why don't you try making it fun to listen to. i cringed when the woman employee predicted a top 6 finish for us, i refuse to believe that she actually thinks that and i bet they wanted a woman on there to make it politically correct, urrrrggghhhh. i feel such a close affinty to the players now that i know valuable information such as the story of paul anderson cutting his cheek as a child !!! errrm not really. oh and jody morris likes jay-z, what great insight i now have into our players lives.

Eco Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Have just listened to the P'cast and found it entertaining and as informative as you'll get without being too obtrusive, which you'll never get, Paul Anderson sounds like a well grounded guy. As for the fans communication manager, or whatever it is, why shouldn't she be positive ?! Personally I think the players should be allowed to choose whatever they like rather than songs relating to specific events but there you go.

Forza Revolution Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Have to say, I subscribe to player and I find the interviews repetitive and boring. A players players favourite music is not of interest to the fans. The idea of playing motivational music (they have chosen) is a good idea but we dont need to know about it.
