22A Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Tranmere were 18th in League 1 then. Now they're mid table National League. About six others in that table are now in L2; proof that City is a comparative success story? BTW; where's the gas in that list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should be rightly proud of what we've achieved as a club...and we should be rightly enjoying our current successful run. We are BCFC and as sure as we have good times, we'll have some bad ones, to be fair they usually follow each other. I wonder if we're starting to see something a little more sustainable?

pride of the west Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 I remember lansdown doing an interview on SODs sacking. He said he knew he had to act as having come back from holiday, everyone at the club were patting each other on the back celebrating a home DRAW with orient. It just showed the sort of mind set SOD got us into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
