BS3_RED Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 (edited) Serious question, do they watch the same game as we do? It has to be the most nauseating biased commentary I have ever heard. I find I tend to get a more level balance of commentary if I listen to the other teams.

Did laugh when the co commenter said he didn’t see the second goal as was heading back to his seat!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinapig Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 It's not commentary it's propoganda. If they told it like it is they would be fired on the spot. I don't know what else you would expect from an in house operation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times have changed - I did most of the 2012/13 season and Adam Baker didn't tell me to change my commentary style once - although some might say that would've been a good thing.

Pezo Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 It's Bristol City's ministry of truth, not sure what else you expect. They must earn a hell of a lot of money for the effort they have to put into trying to make this a positive experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting rid of Adam was symptomatic of the cultural decline of the club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club has made strides forward in social engagement or whatever, and fine that's important but it's only one part of the bigger picture. It shouldn't come at the expense of authenticity, knowing the club and the fanbase, which has been lacking ever since he left. Sadly, Jon Lansdown is a massive fan of American sports and our output seems to have been built around that mindset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 It is awful but this isn't exclusive to our club (I've watched a few from other teams and its exactly the same). It's definitely more noticeable when you aren't playing well though! I find it more bearable when Brian Tinnion is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dredd Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 Quite surprised to get back to the car to hear Weimann had scored, not Semenyo as announced by Downsey Honestly every week he gets something wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re talking about the Robin’s tv commentary then I thoroughly agree. I always try and cinq the radio Brizz commentary. Owers is quality. Just tells it how he sees it and is the first one out of his chair if we score. Robins tv is an operation in sycophantic nonsense that tries to tell you what you are watching! My personal thought would be to have a supporter in there to say what’s really going on. That will never happen, meanwhile I would rather listen to the radio even if it’s a few seconds either way. Never forget the volume button. I don’t watch pre or post match either. I don’t need the propaganda and I have to see that effing balloon again! Agh!
