Pretty odd that he's so surprised that Matty Taylor got a few verbals for this move when two days ago his own newspaper printed an article about Steve Phillips having his car windscreen put in by an errant breeze block! No justification in any way but it seems a bit biased to finger Taylor's treatment as the worst he's seen on that basis!

Yes he is having a pop, but I have to agree with some of what he says. Expressing that your upset over social media or chanting about it on the terraces is acceptable and expected. But making actual threats or doing something that may affect his or his family's personal life is going way too far imo so I agree that if this has happened, then certain fans have crossed the line. As much as I hate what he's done, he is just doing his job and anything that affects his private life is very unjustified.

Andy Von Shitenhausen stirring the pot I see, nothing new there.
Not that it will go away for a very long time, but articles like these certainly wont help him or the snake, but as long as it get hits or helps sell papers eh.

It's not so much that he's gone that has got people's backs up, we all knew he'd be gone sooner or later.
It's the manner of it.
The way he, his agent, Lee Johnson and Lansdown has acted, stinks.
C*nts the lot of them.
I hope nothing but failure on him.
But let's just move on.

"Sense of perspective", "bigger club", "higher division" (for how long ?), blah blah blah, really; most Gasheads would have begrudgingly accepted the ********snake moving to any other club, but not the ****.

The bit which says 'If stories suggesting a police presence outside the striker's home are to be believed' hardly suggests we're dealing with an investigative reporter willing to make the effort to get to the truth of the matter. Lazy journalism from The Post. There's a surprise... not.

The guy's a professional troll, but at least he can make sentences and spell. However, not even his click-baity divisive and vacuous excuse for journalism could save him from the sack. Which means the BP will be even less competent in future, if you can imagine that.

So he says he never saw or experienced anything of the like when Sol Campbell moved from Spurs to the arse? Is he blind, stupid or just a cock on a wind up? No need to answer, we all know which one it is.

Fact is I could do his job in my lunch hour. Even my browser tries its best not to load the shitfest that is the Bristol Post.
Anyway wont City club officials be upset with this seeing as though they refused to answer questions about this in the press conference?

A bit naive about the Celtic/ Rangers and Liverpool/ Everton rivalries and reactions to transfers and it seem pretty tame compared with how City fans reacted to the Steve Phillips and he was not even wanted by the sh*t. He completes fails to address the suspicion of underhanded dealings which provoked much of the reaction. It's a self-righteous man preaching and not very well at that.

The post is getting even worse with time. Over-hyping the reaction massively. You're not telling me there wasn't more outrage in Manchester when Tevez went to City, or in North London when Campbell went to Spurs!! There is also a fairly balanced article by Leroy Rosenior in which he expressed that he couldn't see the move coming and had to do a double take when he heard the news. The headline: 'I wasn't surprised that Taylor swapped Rovers for City!' A paper with seemingly very low standards.

So he says he never saw or experienced anything of the like when Sol Campbell moved from Spurs to the arse? Is he blind, stupid or just a main sail on a wind up? No need to answer, we all know which one it is. Indeed, he's talking out of his arse! I certainly don't condone making threats to harm somebody or damage their property, as I'm sure the majority of supporters wouldn't, but abuse, written or verbal, is always inevitable in these cases. I'm sure that EP would have had photos if there were a police presence outside the snake's gaff - apparently he's moved into the Marriott Hotel at the moment anyway. The article should also have mentioned the provocation of the #welcometobristol #makingbristolproud hashtags the 82'ers used in the official announcement. |

Also I think it didn't help that he be paraded in front of their fans on the evening of his signing, waving that awful red shirt with a cheesy grin on his face and posing for selfie pics with fans around the ground.
I don't begrudge that being done normally but with the shitstorm over his transfer they would have been better leaving it until Saturday.
Anyone know his room number at The Marriott as id like to give him a wake up call tomorrow morning so that he's sharp and ready for the bench.

Not sure how Taylor showed us any loyalty during the summer? He strung us along until days before the season started in his hopes of a championship side signing him.
He then resigned with us only in agreement that we added a very small release clause that would let him move to the first championship club which bid for him - which happened.
