Turned on TV and Sky Sports News was on. Amazed to see we’ve been promoted to the championship and have signed an ex Sheffield Wednesday forward. You’d think that as they are a Sports News Channel with its major bias on Football they would know the difference between using the six letter word Rovers and the four letter word City....but perhaps not, as nothing outside of the PL really means a jot to them.
still wrong an hour and a half after I first saw it so they don’t pay much attention to their own headline output either.

There are regular instances of the Media mixing us up and even the FA put us in the cup draw one year rather than them. So, so much for the deluded reds that spout they are the only team people think about with Bristol in the name. Breaking news Sh1!heads. For all the money you’ve spent on team and ground and time spent playing at a higher level you still regularly get mixed up with us by fans, national media, and even the people that run the bloody game! |

It must really annoy them.
What was it Landsdown said? “In 5 years nobody will know who they are.” Was he talking about City?

'82 have a common 'Robins' nickname as used by some other clubs and a generic kit so it's understandable that some people forget who they are.

It's not that common, off the top of my head it's only used by Swindon, Cheltenham, Charlton, Wrexham, Evesham United, Bracknell, Altrincham, Carshalton, Newtown and Bridgwater Town. |

So easy to tell us apart.
They got a nice ground and we got a sh** ground.
They get over 15,000 and we get under 10,000.
They are vandals and like spraying memorial gates and also like to burn down stands and we don't.
Come on Sky Sports sort it out!

Is that the list of who we've been beaten by in recent FA Cup Round 1 ties? |

Just like to thank the fans of Bristol Sport 1982 ltd, you have just won me £20, I had a bet with my mate(a 82er)that my comment will make it on your vile forum within days, he messaged me 10 minutes ago to say he will pop it around in a bit, I don't know what you chavs have said about it yet but I may take a gander later for a laugh if there is nothing on the telly, your a horrible club but you have paid for my beer tonight I suppose so thanks!
