sglosbcfc Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I had heard previously that he was a City fan, I cannot remember the reason why, I think one of his Uni mates was a City supporter. Steve Lansdown should get him down Ashton to do the half time draw next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portland Bill Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 He's obviously over here because the rugby League team he owns (South Sydney) are playing St Helens in the World club challenge on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNBT Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I did actually know he supported us but never known why (Does anyone know why?) fair play to him must like our laid back life style we have here in the west country and knows a decent team to support even if they aren't in the top tier :clap: like him that bit more now for showing his support live on tv :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Jordan Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 It was an April Fool's back in 2010. http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Actor-s-Robins-response/story-11263363-detail/story.html No, that was in response to his claims that Leeds and City were his favourite 'soccer' teams. Something about a friend he had who supported us back in the 80's. It's on Google somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNBT Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Good to know he kind of supports us can only be a good thing and should we go up you never know with the ground getting revamped him being invited to a game could bring in some more T.V coverage on us to bring in even more support rather than these youngens in their Premiershit tops having never been to seee them even play.

David Brent Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I have been a Leeds United fan since the 1970's.Followed Bristol since the early 90's.They used to be n separate divisions but times change. @ScottSlocombe I follow two teams.Leeds United and Bristol City Robins.They were three divisions apart back in the day.

Andy082005 Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 It was to do with friends he had in the 80's in Australia. Some were Leeds fans and some were City fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snufflelufagus Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I remember him being on soccer am a couple of years ago and he mentioned it then. One of the directors of a film he was in was a mad City fan and the director influenced Crowe to be a City fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what would you suggest instead enlighten me please sir? It can't be a bad thing a Hollywood star mentioning he supports us, just lots more people in general being BC & proud especially as it seems most people think we're called Bristol, was more a case that I thought it was nice someone who is such a celebrity not just jumping to support some the more known clubs, it's like the Botswana tour that should been good for promoting the club as well as the advantages of the team bonding it did or do you think not being mentioned will bring in more supporters??? What is it with people on here all so negative no excuses when we're doing so well ******* hell making me depressed where's my knife should slit my wrists now before it all gets worse again I know it'll happen at some point after all we're City ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 When I saw the title of this thread I thought it was going to be another scare story from the anti Bristol Sport brigade! Give it a couple of months and it probably will be, along with the idea that Russell Crowe has insider information....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
