cityred exile Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Another recent ex player returns on Saturday I always used to feel that Dell was always a little of the unsung hero whilst with us I for one will be looking out for what sort of reception he receives on Saturday , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bar BS3 Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 It shouldn't be anything other than excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidNoble Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Along with all the other players in our double winning squad I believe he deserves a good reception - always did his best for us and will get an applause before and after the game from me. I do hope that his concentration slips during the game, as it sometimes used to, allowing Tammy a decent chance at goal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS4 on Tour... Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 He was a member of a squad that gave most of us the only division winning season that we've ever seen....so anything less than a superb reception would be inappropriate....

Lanterne Rouge Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Hope they wear their away kit (no idea what it is mind, could be all red for all I know) as their normal kit is just that bit too close to another club`s famous quarterzzz and that would not be right to see him in that.

Negan Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 I will be hoping he has a nightmare. Scores 3 own goals, gives away 5 penalties and lets Tammy beat him at the front post twice. Respect him for being part of our double winning team but don't like him personally. He's a bit of a *****. Cheers then Del. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshtonGreat Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 I didn't even know he'd gone! He was a very good player was Del. Seems odd that we didn't keep him as back-up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder everyone thinks Bristolians are reserved! With DW we won the division at a canter with 99 points! We won a division, we were the champions! Not many Bristol City fans who are still alive can ever remember that happening in their lifetime...but 'respectful applause' is your recommendation. Of course I get that DW doesn't play for us anymore, but he contributed to an amazing season, a bl**dy amazing season! I know you are based in Peterborough (I bought a light bulb there once!) and I don't know if you are Bristolian, so please accept my apologies if you aren't......but come on, respectful applause?! This guy helped us win two trophies in one season....and we don't win many of those in my experience... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy helped us win two trophies in one season....and we don't win many of those in my experience... Bristolian based in Bristol for a few years now You're right he was part of a fantastic squad who delivered a helluva lot. I can see why he might be revered like Shaun Goater is at Man City so it's not about perspective regarding what level he achieved at. To be brutally honest, having been challenged on it, I think it might honestly be that I personally felt less affinity with him. You made me think of other first team players at that time and perhaps I wouldn't have said the same - Wade Elliot, Scott Wagstaff for example and even then they featured less, Ayling too Ultimately I think I always found him quite underwhelming - even if the squad's achievement overwhelming. But that doesn't mean I'd not be doing him a disservice in my original suggestion. On reflection I'll pay him a bit more respect Not as much as if he'd come back as a retired player not in opposition mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesBCFC Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Always felt he was underrated by many on here, he was a part of the double winning squad and in the season before that he was young player of the year, ahead of JET who had the Midas touch that season.

Admin phantom Posted October 21, 2016 Admin Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Same for any player returning that was in our promotion winning side Applaud their name when read out in the line up, then from the moment the whistle blows he's a Blackburn player Will see if he has the same passion as Luke Freeman did at the end of the Leeds game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ska Junkie Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Del was decent and will get a round of applause and rightly so but I think it will be mostly forgotten tomorrow as it's remember Gerry Gow' day for all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
