  1. Each August we start a new season, it would be nice to try to win the league, or promotion, otherwise there really is little point,
  2. So any of our players should just grab the first higher offer at the very first opportunity, or , perhaps , as a club we should stand for what is the right thing for us , show some ambition and leadership, and actually TRY to win something? Using your analogy, I had an opportunity to change employer for a higher wage, decided that there was a real opportunity where I was , stayed, ended up an equity Partner, and that proved to be a very good decision. There is more to life than next week’s pay packet.And Bournemouth
  3. Because by playing, and improving his profile he has every opportunity of getting a better offer from a bigger club. In other words, backing himself, and getting to eat his Mum’s dinners.
  4. Tommy Conway is a promising young player who has not yet fully reached his potential, it is surely in both Tommy’s and the Club’s interest for him to stay , in order to (a) have plenty of playing time, (b) boost his value and of course wage demands, (c) help the club to push for promotion, and increase the number and quality of potential suitors, (d) send a message to potential new signings that City are serious about promotion and are not simply a selling club treading water. Sadly we had the same debate last year over Alex Scott, and I predicted we would have this debate this year over Tommy. Conway is a young Bristol lad, who’s family and friends I assume are all local to this area, City have made him a first team starter, and will, we know, release him if a big offer came in. Why then would he not wait another year to establish himself, help his home city club , and boost his value both personally and to the club. There is no need for City or Tommy to simply grab the first offer , you know it will be Bournemouth, that comes along.
  5. And Blackburn , away trips to Leeds and Leicester remaining. And Blackburn , away trips to Leeds and Leicester remaining. And Blackburn , away trips to Leeds and Leicester remaining.

  6. Glad to know we have renewed ambition, could we make 12th , or are we nailed on 13th ……………
  7. Should anyone have a spare adult or senior ticket I’m another who would be grateful, please pm me
  8. Well done the Academy and all involved, it’s nice to have a good news story, and should be congratulations all round.
  9. As an exile (East Sussex) my only moan is that as I can’t realistically make evening games it is not worth my while buying a season ticket, this increasingly means I miss out on away games (Plymouth is a currently example) as they often sell out before Members get an opportunity to buy.Never use to be much of a problem but has occurred a lot more over the last two or three seasons. Not sure what the answer is , perhaps if we keep playing crap , then less people will want to go , and problem solved ️
  10. No.There isn’t. In my case it’s 58 years , with only two notable seasons. The way I look at it is that I have a wonderful wife , lovely kids and now grandsons, good health and am financially comfortable in retirement . It’s been a good life, but no one gets it all , so if there is going to be a f@#k up in my life , better City than any of the above COYRs, and please don’t flog off what little talent we have left in the summer. See you all in August
  11. I feel a more Positive Mental Attitude would benefit your life greatly. Let’s hope we win tonight. COYRs. PS You are making a lot of assumptions about Tommy’s ambitions and immediate plans , none of which you can possibly know. As to my hopes , they are also unknown as I don’t know Tommy’s wishes for now , but what I do know is that the club should at least try.Is that too much to ask ?
  12. You still don’t get it, there is no “us” , do you personally feel richer now that Alex has gone, did you check your trouser pockets for £28M before putting them in the wash ? Won’t be different when they flog Bristol born &bred Tommy, or Knight , or Roberts or any of this window’s purchases, you won’t be any richer and we will still be a mediocre Championship (or L1) team. Tommy is still raw , get him to sign a new contract, and develop him further. He is young, his family and friends are here in Bristol and he is getting first team action. Not that difficult a sell, if you have a desire to be better
  13. If we beat Ipswich , we only need one more win for 50 points, if we lose we will need two more wins ( which we will get) , either way this season is over, roll on 24/25 and pray we will , just for once , be better than mediocre.
  14. We do not have FFP concerns at present, ask poppy
  15. Same old , same old. After Scott last year ( Semenyo scored again) , Conway this , who do you fancy next , how about Knight. And the club goes nowhere. Our medical team are fine as far as I know, but who knows , perhaps we can get a few bob for them too
  16. Change “Conway” to “Scott” and you could cut and paste this whole paragraph in to last year’s debate on here about Alex. And that as worked well, hasn’t it!!!! Using this logic, we never progress, sometimes you need some balls ️️️
  17. Managers are temporary, the club is permanent, so NO , I don’t expect Tommy Conway to be moved on, I do hope that Manning is instead. Last year it was all about moving on Scott, now, predictably it’s Tommy. FFS will this club, and sadly some of our supporters get some ambition . See you all in August.
  18. Of course he buys in to the get them in young and cheap, and then flog them off at the first opportunity model, he’ s part of it himself. A young Coach, with potential, who we can get loads of compensation when he moves on up.
  19. Won’t get fooled again was the 60’s
  20. Oh well, six months to forget football, before next season starts. See Semenyo scored
  21. Personally I think it is the level of away support throughout the leagues that make English Football special. I like a good away crowd for the atmosphere that that provokes the home crowd to respond to. Should the away crowd shout loud and proud , then I feel we should not try and restrict them, but rather respond to them. We do , quite simply have the numbers. Who needs a library…….
