edada Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Hollowhead has never liked us and we’ve never liked him but taking rivalry out of it, he’s a great family man who has always looked out for his girls. So this reveal could be a great message, however, as a club that employs Barton and Brown this seems like just another crap PR stunt to deflect from what they really are. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the most successful team in Bristol -- in 1955-56 for about eight minutes when they finished 6th in the old Div Two and we finished 11th. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open End Numb Legs Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 My guess is the people who came up with such a great shirt idea are not the same as those making the poor decisions which put their club in such a bad light.

Bristol Rob Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 59 minutes ago, petehinton said: It’s a brilliant video and message, but comes two days after saying they won’t be accommodating disabled fans in the away end for the foreseeable future….doesn’t sit too well with me. That's the big issue. Everyone should enjoy football regardless of any disability - great message, I'm sure we all support it but in a week where they've made a decision to exclude visiting disabled supporters because of their own actions..... It's saying what people want to hear whilst doing the opposite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met him at a social event once and he was relaxed, humorous, self-depreciating, friendly. We bantered over a beer, but there was no real dislike. When you live in the Bristol area, you end up with Gas mates, Gas workmates, sometimes Gas relatives. You can joke about it and take the piss, but ultimately, they are just fans of another team: some are nice people, some are utter throbbers - the same mixture as our own fanbase. It's the club I can't stand - not its supporters, deluded though many of them are. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 I'll give them rare credit for the message around the away shirt, that's commendable. Now, back to normal, what have they messed up today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a constant pisstake for those 6 pages, I haven't seen a single post worried about them, it just seems to be the same as last time, they think it's another billionaire coming to take them past us ,and yet we can say with pretty much certainty it isn't. I can assure DarrellsPupGas that, of the things that keep me awake at night, the Scum being bought by another “wealthy” charlatan ranks an emphatic last on the list.

Fordy62 Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Obviously Holloway is a pantomime villain who we all love to hate, but their advert for the new away kit is excellent. The kit is pretty nice too. Fair play to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
