LondonBristolian Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 ...actually quite good. No idea if it will last and only seem the fulham game as watching an hour behind but it so far feels like it's made by someone who gets what it is like to be a fan. Not patronising, not over-glamorous and the tone seems great. bet I embarrass myself and the rest is rubbish... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitySSeven Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Considering we had the game that featured the most amount of goals and to not be mentioned at all after the highlights, seems quite pathetic tbh. That really shows how we get visualised by people outside of Bristol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midred Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Apparently the QPR game was the match of the day and Cardiff are the dark horses. Although it's only the first week they managed to ridicule the idea that any of the teams in the top half of the table might be there at the end (apart from Sheffield utd).

Robbored Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 I thought it was pretty much standard fayre for C5 football coverage.

After all we scored more goals than anyone else. It is only fair that in those circumstances every other club is commented upon and we are simply ignored. One thing that can be relied upon at the start of each football season is that Channel 5 will tinker with their presentation of the Championship and produce another load of absolute dross. Jeez, that focus on the contribution of John Terry in the one point Aston Villa obtained from their home match was embarrassing. They seemed to say he was at fault for the equaliser and he was slow and then said that he would be pleased with his performance!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanburyRed Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Was hoping that having got rid of George Riley & Lynsey Hipgrave, things might have improved but once that dreadful music starts you realise it's the same old dross.

Portland Bill Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 I thought both shows were decent, Murray comes across as the decent bloke I think he is, Michael Gray was sound as well. I honestly don't see what people are moaning about, were a small fish in the Championship, I thought people would have got used to it by now!.

Everyone assumes it should be the Bristol City Championship show with a few of the best bits from other games it seems. Colin Murray has to follow the script, but my impression was he was trying to get through the talkie bits as quickly as possible to get back to the football. 1 hour ago, Midred said: Apparently the QPR game was the match of the day and Cardiff are the dark horses.

No they said twice it was "the performance of the day", rightly pointing out how big a gap there was between the two teams last season, and they said how silly it is trying to produce a table after one game, where most teams are listed more by Alphabetical order than anything else.

My assumption would be the team on top of the table also being the team who scored the most and in the game involved with the most goals (I think) would get some sort of reference in their punditry even if for only 30 seconds.

Much as I loved Tammy it was annoying that most press were interested in the Chelsea loanee rather than anything else. I guess we had our LJ puff pieces at the beginning of the season about Michelin starred kitchens etc but they soon dried up. well **** the media and let's make them take notice of us. COYR.
