Davefevs Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 Was a fantastic listen. Was out for a walk listening when Marcus Stewart gave his message, lump to throat time. Gonna be missed, big time. Good new is that SOTC will be back next season. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCGav Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 Will be very odd not hearing his voice when stuck in traffic post-match. Big shoes for somebody to fill. Happy retirement Geoff! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The turtle Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Just finished listening to last night's show. What a show that was. In 1993 i was 9, my football memories only still fully hold around then. Geoff has been THE voice ever since. I mean, my voice of Bristol football, and one of the voices of football full stop has just retired. End of an era. We were so lucky to have such a man as the heart of football.

bcfc01 Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 Only just got round to listening to it. Quite emotional really, end of an era, but he's leaving for exactly the right reasons and the best of luck to him. Brilliant broadcaster for Bristol, much appreciated and respected, an honorary Bristolian. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to echo what everybody said on that show, and have written on this and other boards, what a great broadcaster and true professional, right to the end. Add to that, and most importantly, a great bloke. A happy and much deserved retirement, Geoff !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 Hearing Alistair Bruce-Ball, Marcus Stewart and even Ian Holloway giving due deference and even Jurgen Klopp was fantastic, as I sit here this "Saaaafternoon". I hope you enjoy being a "Pops" as much as I have since retirement Geoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 The version I listened to on BBC Sounds cut off right at the end, could someone answer a couple of questions for me? 1. Who's version of You'll Never Walk Alone was that? 2. Who was the very final guest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron W Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Geoff is one of those amazing quirks of local radio. Outside of Bristol (and Liverpool, obviously) not too many people will have heard of him, but inside our area he's a household name and could really have gone onto bigger things. That in itself creates bigger pressure - for sport on national stations, there's always an alternative. If you don't like Radio Five, listen to TalkSport (heaven forbid). In Bristol, it's really RB or nothing. So you have to be good or you'll know about it. And the fact City and Rovers are equally as sad to see him go even with his past allegiances says everything.

REDOXO Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 Such a great show. GT is a local ledge now and thoroughly deserved. Im really hoping that Owers gets the SOTC gig if not already decided! What was that all about with Mr Holloway, he seemed very bitter toward some at BRFC! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The YNWA version was by Marcus Mumford and I think the “final” guest was Adam something, who was due to present the next Radio Bristol programme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have no objection to Owers taking over, an ex-footballer like GT would be good. I've watched a few Joe Partington podcasts and they are excellent, he's a very good interviewer, wouldn't mind him on SOTC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
