BS3City Posted November 28, 2022 Report Share Posted November 28, 2022 No surprise that BBC Points West barely mentioned their ignominious defeat, instead focussing on the bigger, far more important tie involving Chippenham Town and Burton.

Now I know that football clubs tend to provide visiting teams with smaller, more humble dressing rooms but theirs still had the ‘kin brooms in there. What a shithole, inside and out. Yeah, but the home dressing rooms are twice as nice ...... nearly EDIT I thought some of you might enjoy the tour by Bristol World, some really dodgy editing and even dodgier buildings. They do have about 6 nice padded seats though. Edited November 29, 2022 by 1960maaan 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to Portishead's ground on Saturday and they would be embarrassed if they had something like that on the side of the pitch. I always thought them to be a tinpot organisation but I didn’t honestly believe them to likely be quite so backward - from the 1970’s bath (no doubt referred to internally as the hydrotherapy pool) to the pitchside air raid shelter to the Glastonbury style fanzone to the Sistene Chapel toilet block. What a ‘kin mess. Must also be nice for Wael’s guests in the Presidential Box to be welcomed by the North Korean style photograph of mine host as they crowd around the table tucking into their lasagne. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 This really elevates the word ‘ tinpot’ to another level. They are locked into a 1960’s time warp. Watching this video was like watching a football nostalgia programme. From the ikea ‘trophy’ cabinet , passing by the plastic ‘ Rovers’ carrier bags and the team bath it really was a laugh a minute. Any kid hearing the roar of the faithful would become a Rover’s fan for life. On a serious noté their misguided community chappie is a credit to them. He probably deserves better.

GrahamC Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 **** me, fair play to anyone who managed to watch much of that Bristol World video. The one with the kit man is off the scale North Korea. ”I know we can’t talk about the court case, but do you think Barton is misunderstood?” “Is he building something special?” Basically this is as biased as anything ever printed by Sam Frost.

Also I forgot to mention, the "Fanzone", I mean, they have just opened the fire exit doors of the club bar into the car park and wheeled in a stage similar to ours, haven't they? Do they have concessions there on a match day? If so, it wouldn't leave much room for anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 The very definition of tin pot. Its best to watch the video with the sound turned down. I must've missed the Watney Cup in the wall cupboard trophy cabinet. Must be behind a box of babestation videos. Stark painted breeze block walls to give that homely prisoner cell block H feel, very nice. I am sure the manager feels at home. His "office" looks like a cupboard. All part of the temporary portakabin look. Very 1970's A very revealing view of the "facilities" on offer so any visiting fan who thought it was a shit hole from the outside, we can assure you its just the same on the inside. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I've never known, or really cared about the story before, I had to Google the lyrics. Can't see anything about a Prostitute , but the early versions mentions being "too young" Leadbelly 1908; I asked your mother for you She told me that you was too young I wish dear Lord that I'd never seen your face I'm sorry you ever were born The early versions seem to have the "To jump into the river and drown" line , which is the one I heard originally. Eric Clapton apparently did a version which mentions Morphine, can't say I have ever heard that version. One thing we can all agree on is, they've taken the song (like it or not) and destroyed it. Dirge does not do it justice . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
