3 shows in 1! Regular - Any topic! Bonus - Post Match Bristol City. Robins Reunited - Ex Bristol City players recapping old times. The podcast is hosted by Patrick Warner, or Patch as he is most well-known, who was in Portland, Oregon in 2011 when he was asked on to his cousin’s podcast called The MitchCast. The podcast was two friends getting together to discuss a wide range of topics, from movies to reviewing drinks to playing games on air. Patch returned home and thought it would be great to replicate and expand on this. He approached his friends and former work colleagues, Mike Pedley and Rich Brown, both fellow banter merchants who were initially sceptical, but eventually the pilot episode was recorded and they haven’t looked back. No one episode is the same, it ranges from the three lads chatting about what they have been up to, making TV recommendations and using random questions to drive out witty banter and conversation. There are a few regular segments throughout. The “Room of Doom”, which is a play on the BBC one show Room 101, and also “Rich’s Rant”, which is a platform for Rich to get his latest bug bears off his chest. In addition to a 3-way chat, they have had a number of guests on the podcast to talk about their field of expertise, the lionshare of which have grown up or live in Bristol. We are constantly celebrating Bristol on this podcast and all it has to offer. Guests have ranged from TV personalities, sports stars, musicians, influencers, restuarants, directors, street food vendors, photographers, street artists, nutritionists, comedians, chefs, fundraisers, entrepreneurs and a poet (see episode index and showcase slides for more). The podcast has also reviewed events, books, go-karting venues, theme parks, restaurants and even a school reunion! So as you can see from the above we are not pigeon holed whatsoever, the only constant is fun! In February 2020 we began to do Bristol City post- match reviews with other fans to supplement the Radio Bristol style phone-in. Patch is a regular on Geoff Twentyman’s Sound of the City and conducts this Bonus Show with another regular on that show - Matthew Withers.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N107yaCRMg - 4m:45s - David Noble v Palace 2007/8 is the definition of a technical finish with the volume turned up. It’s late in a play-off semi-final, away from home, the pressure is ridiculous, and he just has this moment of calm where everyone else is panicking. He shifts it onto his right foot and strikes one from well outside the box into the top corner. It’s not just a hit-and-hope screamer, it’s measured, it’s clean, it’s curling, it’s rising and it has that beautiful split second where the whole stadium can see it travelling before it nestles in. Proper mouth-into-profanity-machine stuff.
Technically Brilliant - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx3VT2ADAx0 - Joe Bryan v Man United 2017/18 goal of the season. The technicality of Joe Bryan’s goal is massively underrated because the occasion almost swallows it. Everyone remembers Manchester United, Ashton Gate, the limbs, the night itself — but the finish is absolutely elite. He’s coming onto the ball at pace, from a tight angle, on his left foot, with barely any time to set himself. He opens his body just enough, gets the connection clean, and instead of snatching at it, he lifts it across the keeper into the far side of the net. That is such a hard finish because he has to generate power, control the height, beat the keeper and not drag it wide — all in one movement. It’s not just a big goal. It’s a technically ridiculous finish.
Technical Filth - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZCq3e38ALA - 2m08s Lee Tomlin v Huddersfield 2016 season. Lee Tomlin against Huddersfield is the one where technique becomes disrespectful. It’s not a worldie in the traditional sense where someone’s lashed it from 30 yards — it’s more subtle and arguably more filthy. He’s in the box, everything’s tight, and instead of rushing it he almost pauses the whole game. The technicality is in the disguise: the body shape, the little delay, the way he makes the keeper and defenders think one thing is coming before doing another. It’s close-control arrogance, basically. No massive backlift, no panic, just a player completely in charge of the moment. It’s less “what a hit” and more “you can’t be doing that to grown men.”
Instinctive Execution - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p59qSfr1pPE - 2m48s - Nicky Maynard v QPR 2009. The Execution Pick - Nicky Maynard against QPR is probably the purest technical finish of the lot. It’s not just the strike, it’s everything before it. The ball drops out of the sky, he cushions it, keeps it alive, adjusts his feet, and somehow never lets the moment get away from him. Most players there are either taking a hopeful swing or waiting for it to come down properly. Maynard does neither. He almost choreographs the chaos — touch, adjustment, bang — and then pulls out this ridiculous scissor-kick volley while his body is moving away from goal. That’s the technical brilliance: balance, improvisation, timing, coordination and instinct all happening in about two seconds. It’s the sort of finish where your brain needs three replays just to understand what his feet have already done.
