And about to appoint a manager we were once linked with. Dearie me, ownership is issue there. To be honest why did he say it? It’s not as if they have been even close to appointing someone!

Dreadful. Finishing on a par with us, Nunez is shocking!

Arsenal won the league tonight. They want it the most, City will slip.

Two legends, love them both.

As above, Ian Gay said he is hopeful of both Williams and Tommy signing.

Arsenal for me are the best of the three teams and will win it. I can see City slipping up.

It was the most Bristol City thing to happen wasn’t it. Felt for them, United have big problems, I am surprised the new owners haven’t made the change yet. They need De Zerbi.

Been poor in my view but respect he had a terrible injury early on and missed a huge chunk of season. I personally don’t want to go for players from the SPL moving forward. Always flatter to deceive at this level for us. Average league.

Believe Steve reads the forum from time to time (at least has hinted that way in the past). Therefore Steve if you see this please can you talk to the fans at the end of the season, we don’t want to hear from Tinnion, Manning, Jon, Marshall, we want to hear from you. Where you see the club going, the investment in the women’s team (or perceived lack of taking opportunity in PL), backing the squad with summer investment, the performance levels from this season considering the board expectations of top six (as mentioned when Pearson was sacked). We need to hear from the top as many are waiving on renewing season tickets.

Pearson is better than Manning, end of. No argument on this, Manning’s best achievement is the sack at MK Dons

With no money to spend.

Twine and Mebude have become the 2024 Jan transfer window version of Kent and Diony. The way Tinnion was going on it was like he was expecting a Knighthood for our January business.

Exactly this and those wins were both thrilling and we created numerous chances. Unlike the Blackburn game. Performances and results? Are you joking? It’s been dire and scrappy!

Great side and brilliant result that day….why? Good recruitment, a midfield that created chances and scored goals, a manager who inspired the fans and dressing room and most important kept it simple, no square pegs in round holes, no clubs in the bags PR rubbish, no need for these modern head coaches who are over complicating an easy game if I’m honest!

I don’t get the Twine thing or what Manning is trying to do. Arsenal don’t play Odegaard in a 3, Man City don’t do it with KDB, United don’t do it with Fernandes….arguably the three best creative midfielders in the PL, that is the terminology here, it is an attacking MIDFIELDER we need. A number 10 is a Dennis Bergkamp type. If we can get the right creative attacking mid who can play in front of say Bird and Knight next season it will surely improve our supply to the forward line which in my view requires at least two if not three signings in the front 3, not number 10’s, pacy wide players like Semenyo who will get you off your seat and create chances/goals, plus a powerful forward. We are so dull to watch in final third, nothing gets you off your seat in BS3.

Yes I am being very serious and I note others on here have said the same. That Blackburn win was the least exciting 5.0 in the club history, we were average and gifted the game through error after error from them. Majority of second half was fall asleep mode. We’ve played much better this season like Stoke at home under Nige where we played them off the park and somehow lost.

3 at the back is the way to go. We are dreadful in a 4. I hope they have a good plan for the summer because it really is a critical period for the club. Another mid table season of dire football and I don’t think many will bother turning up again. City fans want to see good football played a pace with width and edge of your seat play, the only time I get off my seat is to get a beer at HT.

Well yes, even worse. Throughly depressing season, cannot wait for the summer to have a break from it all.

Totally agree, don’t see what all the fuss is about. We don’t need a number 10 (what is this number 10 nonsense, call it a creative attacking midfielder, an 8 like KDB and Odegaard/Fernandez, they are not 10’s. We need a player to play at the top of a midfield three and then two pacy wide men with a powerful striker.

Mathematically today.

Wow. Exactly what I’ve just posted….Manning ball is dire and it was v Plymouth and Sunderland too, lucky to have won both those games. Papering over the cracks, big summer ahead.

Real progress! Top six squad we were told! Progressive appointment….sorry a couple of scrappy results isn’t convincing me (and I include a 5.0 win in that which for me was almost as bad a performance as some of the others…gifted 5 goals and created little ourselves). Worried for next season, he will get the summer and first 10 games for me but I’m not convinced he is any better than LJ.

Not convinced him or Twine are the answer. Need better

Called this after Leicester game. Walked out away from players and calling a taxi on his own, didn’t seem interested in speaking to fans, headphones on, these things happen but can’t see him getting a deal.

This summer we don’t need to sign any defensive players IMO. Focus on creative players and goalscorers, adding much needed pace and physical strength. I would say we still need a good keeper to challenge Max, but it’s not as critical based on second half season form from MOL.
