TomShor10 Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 I don’t know who it was today but some how he was even worse than Downsy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View from the Dolman Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 Downsy posted a positive Covid test this morning so presumably whoever it was performing the duties today was a very late call-up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brent Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 He was from the academy. The pathway extends to stadium announcers too…I don’t think he’s first team quality just yet though. 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View from the Dolman Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 Appears it was Sam Hardy who can usually be found as the announcer for Bristol Flyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Homer Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 If it's the bloke with the long hair, he was announcer at the womens game against Birmingham earlier in the season. Bloody awful! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardy Posted January 29, 2023 Report Share Posted January 29, 2023 Dreadful - just didn’t have the vocal depth to be an announcer of any kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure City will have protocals in place - I'm pretty sure Nige doesn't want anyone with Covid within a mile of him.

Numero Uno Posted January 29, 2023 Report Share Posted January 29, 2023 I couldn't make it yesterday but did the new guy still do Births, Marriages and Deaths at half time...............and do we still have to phone the club on Tuesday to get the half time scores?

Mr Popodopolous Posted January 29, 2023 Report Share Posted January 29, 2023 He also when reading the teams referred to the bench, maybe once but maybe more as "the substitions"?? It's a bit pedantic of me but come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted in the match day thread “bring back Downsy, please” I’ve had time to reflect on my choice of words and apologise. Seriously though. I think the job is his for as long as he wants it but a good stadium announcer can improve the whole match day experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
