Dynamite Red Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Welcome Lee. I am not particularly anti Bristol Sport but I don't understand why it would be announced on that website before City's own site. Bristol Sport is meant to be a body of clubs sharing admin, costs ideas etc... Feels a bit strange and will add fuel to the fire that it is more than just the stated above.

JoeAman08 Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Just on Bristol Sport and it was there. Must be done. Better be done. Imagine it wasn't, how would that look to signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Someone earlier in the thread said the club don't control the timings of when stuff goes up on the official site, maybe thats why its on Bristol Sport instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a Bristol Sport v Bristol City issue, it's clearly just an administrative screw up. It could equally have been posted on BCFC by mistake so let's not turn this into a bigger issue than it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJgEEZa Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 And still nothing from anywhere else bar people who have picked it up from the BS website. Humour me, if this is legit (either timing wise or factually) why hasn't Lee himself started interacting with the fans. It's been carnage on Twitter for weeks. He would be mopping it up. BCFCtweets for all of there faults are not this slack either. If BS website had dropped the ball, a simple phone call would have been made and a tweet saying Tomlin signs, more to follow would have gone out. If I am wrong that is absolutely fine by me, but it is a amateur hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septic Peg Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Think this is the real deal. Look at the Dolman flood lights on the photo. Only done a week or so ago. Can't imagine a photo shopper going to such an extreme. Reckon someone typed it with intent to upload tomorrow and pressed the wrong button... whoops...

All jokes aside the deal is pretty clearly all done now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 I'm not sure what's more hilarious, the club's media department not knowing its' arse from its' elbow or people on here demanding official statements and clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivorguy Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Why do I worry as a City supporter for nearly 8 decades? Because whatever the truth turns out to be the Club are not acting in a professional way If this was a one off fine but it isn't - last summer and then the SC saga If we are a serious club we need to get our administration right - there will be many pitfalls in the next few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am wrong that is absolutely fine by me, but it is a amateur hour. It's pretty obvious that the article was posted in error. No one associated with the club - least of all the manager - is going to break the official silence until the news is officially announced. Your alternative suggestion that the content of the article itself was not true seems unlikely, to put it mildly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
