Marina's Rolls Royce Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Anyone see it?Skeletor could not have been more complimentary to Steve in the post match interview. He made some great points and has said the best stuff about BCFC in his career. He's still a complete dick though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Cotterill is hardly going to object to compliments about his team on tv though, would be interesting to see an interview with Holloway being critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 I know, I know ...... I should hate him, particularly as I was around in the 70's and 80's, but red tie and very complimentary about us AGAIN.... I'm finding it really difficult.Nurse! More medicine please. Then there's Elliot Harrison ... am I going mad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tall King Blox Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Holloway was a fawning tosser towards SC and City.Embarrassing. Half Term ? I got some treats waiting come the 31st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there's Elliot Harrison ... am I going mad?why wouldn't he compliment us? - to save face with a few blue in League Two, non league last year with a very precarious outlook? I doubt it. Why wouldn't he compliment us? Considering he's managed a London club seeming partial to rival clubs, even the biggest rival, could be handy considering the dense populous of jobs there. Maybe he's mellowed and maybe I'm too cynical. But I'm far from convinced. Heck even trying to get himself as the go to analyst on sky for all Bristol football will keep his family in a few decent holidays a year I would imagine.

ChippenhamRed Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Holloway was rightly complimentary about a very positive performance. If he was critical of us, everyone would moan, then he says good stuff and he's accused of fawning. Didn't think he said anything to get worked up about at all.

Leveller Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Cotterill & Holloway were friendly & genuine like a pair of grown ups. Not like a large number of bitter and twisted childish fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Heaven forbid, he wants Cotts role? Yeah. Would add that if his stock wasn't so low. Perhaps he should be concerning himself with the blue few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 He was very complimentary to SC and his team - but not to 'the club' as such, though right?!? I thought he actually had a bit of a dig at the fans, something about expectations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Holloway is still a **** and he has never forgiven us for trying to burn the ground down at Bath in the 80's!There are certainly plenty of City fans who still feel the same as Holloway about those sort of stupid, criminal incidents. We don't ever want to lose to them, we always want to finish higher up the League, and so on, but we draw the line at physical violence and acts of arson and damage to property.I love my football club and everyone who supports but not the very small minority who are just anti social morons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richwwtk Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Scumbag? You really do need to get a life. Its football. hahaToo much of that attitude and you'll start to question why you bother with football at all Emotive language is often used when talking about football and I personally believe that's well and good. Football isn't necessarily about real life, being a fan is partly about the escape from the drudgery of everyday life and allowing yourself to be drawn into the football world where rivalries are exaggerated beyond belief and the language used in these terms is likewise exaggerated.it's where the escape overspills into real life violence that I have an issue.edit - just to add that, in this football world, Holloway is a synt of the highest order.

Ivorguy Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 How sad the 1950s have gone when many supported both City and Rovers and only became partisan in derby matches. My family have always been Red but my father and grandfather were season ticket holders at both clubs and cheered City on in Derby matches at Eastville quite happily and safely from the Rovers standOne of the best old Division 2 matches I have seen in Bristol was Rovers recovering from being 3-0 at half time against Leeds and drawing 3-3At school our under 11s were trained by Rovers players. How wonderful it was to chant Ernie Peacock's name at Jackie Pitt after a hairy derby match at Ashton Gate. Pitt took it in good spirit, a real old fashioned gent of a player.I don't like all the nasty comments between fans of the two clubs; rivalry is one thing abuse quite another.Just remember the friendly rivalry and mutual respect between John Atyeo and Geoff Bradford; I think they would both be shocked by some fans' comments.

Lanterne Rouge Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Thought it was a bit cringeworthy but came across as `Bristol against the world` and trying (from him and Cotts) to get across that there is good football outside the bubble that most pundits seem to inhabit. Say what you like and I just laugh at him personally but one thing he never does is put Bristol down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
