We’re a bigger club than Bristol City. They’re a good club these days but it’s not a massive football city, if they combined with Rovers they might be a force but it would never happen.

Evo1883 · Mar 13, 2021

And before sisu took over we we had the 17th highest historical average attendance.. Above Leicester, above Norwich forest and Derby etc... So it shows the damage that has been done over the last 10 plus years

We've dropped 8 places in historical average attendances in 10 years

I can’t even believe this is being debated how on earth can people think Bristol city is a bigger club than Coventry city

I mean you thought we would finish above Barnsley this season so you can barely talk

PVA · Mar 13, 2021

Bristol City are bigger than us right now.

Historically, going back to since both clubs were founded? Of course we're bigger.

Do we have potential to be a much bigger club than them? Of course.

But on recent history, and as of right now, they are bigger

There should also be a great big asterisk put next to our historical averages for this latest period, given it includes 'home' games played in Northampton and Birmingham.

Bristol City bigger or smaller than Coventry City who the fuck are bothered. Just hope Cov are bigger on Easter Monday.

It's almost as if this forum needs an asinine argument on the go at all times.

Shows how far we’ve fallen when people on here genuinely believe Bristol City are a bigger club than us. It’s concerning that we have this new generation of tinpot fans that see us as a lower league club, but I suppose you can’t blame them.

I would love to get Walsh in for next season. Technically, he was levels above any other player in the league last season. I’d offer Bristol O’Hare (+maybe cash) for him.

This is a wind up, right?

The ‘who is is the biggest club’ argument is one of the most tedious in football. I doubt a footballer who was 3 when we got relegated from the Prem gives a shit that we were in the top flight for 34 years or that we averaged 30k 50 years ago.

Mcbean · Mar 14, 2021

That big club Scumberland is playing today in a tin pot cup we won

Get rid of your best player plus cash for somebody who plays an entirely different role

Maddest post of the day, congrats!

Walsh didn't like Lee Johnson
We definitely had a chance of signing Walsh if Johnson was still the manager
Not so sure now

Semantics and asinine used in one topic!

He’s excellent at this level. I know many regard us as the reincarnation of 1980’s AC Milan, but he’s had a very successful managerial career. Apparently it was between him and Coleman when SISU first came in.

ccfc1234 · Mar 14, 2021

Lots of opinion but surely we need some criteria to benchmark the club's by:

1. Size of city (inc how many clubs in that city)

2. Historical achievements

3. Average attendance over the last decade

4. Record signing fee paid (with indexation applied to give current value)

5. Average away following over a decade

I am not saying the above are the right measures but some like the above might help make it a little more measurable.

I heard Neil Warnock, I’m sure I heard him say on radio he thought he’d got it.

I definitely remember Pearson as one of the final two, think he was assistant at Newcastle at the time.

We were definitely linked with Pearson I recall and think our interest was reported in the Telegraph at the time.

South Of The River · Mar 14, 2021

I only popped on here on the off chance to see if you were talking about Walsh after his first appearance of the season for us yesterday....

and I see this

For what it’s worth from a Bristol City view, I’d say we’re roughly the same size.

Not sure about that. We’ve been there with Johnson and Holden who were inexperienced coaches. It was hard work at times!

I’m relieved to see that we’ve finally got a man in with a proven record of success at this level. The early signs are good so far!

Cliche man for me. Maybe I just feel it’s a shame the same names all pop up for jobs. No problem with Bristol city but would love to get Walsh in on a free

Not sure it's that.
Seems like he's succeeded with most clubs he's taken on .
Seems bright and intelligent but a little prickly/ slightly arrogant .
Always felt the aggressive side of him is possibly to show he can survive in the Man's game is because he sees himself as more cultured than many involved in the game,cos he has been involved in a couple of bust ups if I remember right .
Similar to Joey Barton in how he sees himself but not as openly prepared to swing for people .
Also I don't think he fits the perennial image of the regular dinosaurs that do the rounds as he doesn't just resort to hoof it and put yourself about , too young to get the that reputation yet I think.
