So, he's their Matty Phillips?!
Edited for you!
It would have to be 'five seasons ago'

They changed their tune somewhat when they won the match,
"Second half particularly he was what we’ve been missing for many seasons, strength, presence, a bit of nouse and will to win in the middle of the park. Luv it."
You have to search hard to find positives. Up to the 2nd half yesterday, it's been pretty scathing. I doubt many will have been swayed and he appears to be their very own spacegoat.

Not helped when we have our own fans telling them stuff like this:

Now he's considered one of our best players"in modern times"...
Is it possible that football fans are fickle?

If I was Brunty, I wouldn’t be particularly worried. The opinion of the average Bristol City fan is worth the square root of fuck all. For a club that has never done anything and never won anything, they have a remarkably inflated opinion of themselves. Being bigger than Rovers doesn’t mean they’re part of the elite

Are City bigger than Rovers? My mate runs a pub down there and reckons it's mostly Gas? Personally I've never cared for either, I remember when City got all Billy Big 'uns at The Hawthorns and got what they deserved after attacking some kids.
