Popular Post Marina's Rolls Royce Posted April 1 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 1 I just never wanted him anywhere near BCFC. He is, of course, our pantomime villain to most and with good reason. He loves us Bristol City fans because he provokes such a big reaction with us- mainly that we think he's Colin. It's like Oscar Wilde who said" there's one thing worse than being talked about.....not being talked about". Personally I love to dislike him but despite all that- I know it's his last moment- his swan song but I find myself genuinely rooting for him. I hope he gets his ultimate greatest achievement in keeping Huddersfield up. If it's at the expense of Cardiff then ( sorry Neil) I'd give him a minutes applause not the minutes boo which he has suggested! Hate to say it but he's a bit of a legend. 25 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s hope he plays his part and gets a result in the 2nd last game of the season, away at Baadiff and sends them down 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of being the pantomime villain Colin is way and above the rest but if we’re all willing to be honest I reckon most of us would admit that we have a soft spot for him. 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they will both (just about) keep their trousers up: Roy his stylish, tailored trousers with a classy Gucci belt, Colin his polyester Sports Direct joggers with an elasticated waist (and belly to fill) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely love him and one of football's last 'real' characters. He won`t be there. He`ll have been tempted out of retirement for just one more shot at keeping a doomed side in the Championship and it will definitely be his very last job and that`s a promise. Plymouth anyone?

Charlie BCFC Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Thought Huddersfield were terrible when we played them both times, credit where it’s due Warnock has turned them around. Relegation battle looks very interesting now, we interestingly finish the season against QPR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that we're more ruthless than we were several seasons ago when we had the opportunity to relegate Birmingham, I think it was.
