boadle Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 We're all expecting a cauldron-of-hate atmosphere. I wonder which of the players will be accostomed to that, and who might find it distracting?Which players in both squads have experience of Bristol derbies, which players have experience of other derbies, and which players won't know what to expect?

Beyond that, they're all noobs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PaulTrollopesBlueArmy Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Lee Johnson,Weale,Jevons and Gary(stupid squeaky cockney ****) Johnson have experienced a very hostile crowd before at rovers when we drew 2-2 with yeovil and after the game Lee Johnson said it was like playing against Galatasary because it was loud and very hostile.We have a few gasheads in our team who havent experienced a local derby like Nicholson,Sandell and a few of the youngsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samo Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 McAllister will have been involved in a few Hearts/Hibs 'battles' and although it's not Old Firm level hostility it's nothing to be sneezed at.Other than that I think McCombe has played alot of play-off matches for Lincon, and Basso has experience of playing in front of tens of thousands of hopping mad Brazillians in Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, the top league in his homeland. He mentioned it in an interview on world a little while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not as up for this derby as I have been in the past. My disdain for the Gash has been watered down with them being so useless recently.I'm sure as soon as I hear that stupid Irene song, the hatred will come flooding back.
