Silvio Dante Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 One of the main podcasts for the championship is the Second Tier. Hosted by Ryan Dilks and Justin Peach, it’s got a decent rep and Peach seems to know his stuff. Dilks, however, is a moron. He’s been down on us - and specifically Pearson - for some time. Last week, he professed that we should sack Nigel Pearson and replace him with a young, exciting manager - giving no names: Dilks was put right by several city fans - citing the blooding of youngsters, improvements in playing style and cost constraints. Today he’s doubled down though, and named one of his young, exciting managers as…Nathan Jones (Tbf he also mentions Schumacher) Begs two questions: - Does anyone know what Nige has done to Dilks? - Is there anyone on a podcast about a subject they profess to know about with less knowledge? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brent Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 (edited) For interaction I suspect. Same as the morons on TalkSport So many city fans defend him because they appreciate the job he’s doing. These ‘experts’ don’t know enough about us to comment. It’s a shame if that is one of the top podcasts Edited April 24 by David Brent 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Maybe it has gone out of fashion, or never was in fashion on Twitter, but this sort of comment would usually have received a reply of AWOOGA! As being the correct response to any statement given for no other reason than to provoke a response. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awbb Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Forgive me @Silvio Dante, but as we all know; Nige doesn't run over dogs, he fights them. Which probably upset this Dilks fellow even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheReds Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 This is the trouble with experts - they simply aren't experts. On one of our Sky games or the Cup games (cannot remember which one) a couple of pundits said after the game we could make a run for the playoffs. There was no mention of all of our injuries at the time whatsoever which were shocking (Kalas, Atkinson, Naismith, Weimann, Conway, Williams), they just made a judgement on one performance and that was it, there was no in depth discussion or pretty much any discussion at all about our upcoming fixtures or our lack of available squad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute clown & a crap podcast . Exactly. Predicted we’d get relegated and then thinks we should sack the manager who easily kept us up. The only good podcast for our level of football is Not The Top 20. Their knowledge of 72 clubs is insane 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Pretends to be objective , then at the end he says he doesn't like Pearson as a manager, Nob! Someone else that gets his opinions from looking at the League Table . Gabriel Sutton and Benjamin Bloom are good, but this lot? Not worth the effort.

Davefevs Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 They are the podcast equivalent of clickbait. Dicks (sic) is a cock the few times I get to see their pod tweets. Peach is like Hong Kong Phooey’s cat, just sat there in disbelief at the shit that comes out Dicks’s mouth. If you want to host a pod like this, that’s up to them. If you want to host a pod and have a bit of credibility, do some research and don’t try to be a ****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCGav Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 (edited) For a good podcast I’d recommend SDS, albeit they cover Prem and not Championship. Good mix of knowledge and genuine belly laughs. I think it’ll appeal generally to more the 20-40 sort of age groups but other than OSIB, it’s my fav pod out there. More on topic, Second Tier have always been a little down on us but to be fair we’ve provided the ammunition over the past few seasons! I look forward to them seeing our improvement next term.

Very true. I think it was the Boro televised last week where the co commentator (ie the so-called expert) said “Cam Pring at canter back. I remember him playing left back at Portsmouth”. The expert clearly had no idea that Pring was filling in at CB because we have no other fit centre backs, and that he’s been one of the best left backs in the league all season. Terrible piece of ‘expertise’. Funny thing was, I think he thought he was being clever - ie “hey look at my knowledge, I knew he was on loan at Portsmouth 4 years ago”. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 When Sky showed us v Blackpool a few weeks back, I thought it was quite refreshing to hear Don Goodman admit that it was the first time that he'd watched Alex Scott live in person, and that he hadn't seen nearly as much of him as he probably should have done.

LondonBristolian Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 (edited) I realise this is a massively controversial statement and it may be nobody else agrees with me. But I for one am NOT in favour of replacing Pearson with Nathan Jones for next season. Edited April 24 by LondonBristolian 2 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Who the pheck is Ryan Dick anyway? Anyone who rates Nathan Jones over Pearson has no credibility, and appears to be a egotistical publicity seeking moron. I have never heard of their podcast................and will be sure to avoid it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dredd Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Muted him and his podcast some time ago. They chat absolute sh*t and aren't willing to take on comments from fans who actually watch and know about their own teams.

Where did this Gandalf lookalike spring up from? Hopefully he will disappear up his own back end?.....How do these non entities even get a job in the first place? He actually says "If I was in charge of Bristol City.......I would blah blah!" He lives in the land of the lost....what a puffed up skid mark? Ha!!
