  1. Considering MK dons haven't scored 3 goals in a league game since October, I think we are now safe!
  2. In fairness the last two results typify our season. Win some lose some. This group of players have enough to stay up. Today was not our day, but honestly did anyone think it would be? Two more wins. Stevo
  3. Couple of points to make. Firstly, FFP has to be mentioned here. They simply cannot just come in a build a team full of million pound players. Secondly, I use the analogy of a used car sales man (Higgs). Up drives a brand new Ferrari out jumps (Al-Qadi) and starts sniffing round an MkII Ford Escort, that Higgs just put on the lot this morning, with no price. I am interested, as Al-Qadi, how much. Well Higgs knows its only worth a few hundred at best. MOT needed and the interior is shocking. The engine is shot and needs 4 new tires. $1000 says Higgs, sold says Al-Qadi. Why oh why would the owner of a Ferrari buy a beaten up old escort. There is only so much he can do with it. Its a pile of crap and no amount of money is going to change it. For me, we are competing against 91 other league clubs, either directly or indirectly. They are just another one. I think promotion to the Championship was a massive reality check for us and despite our billionaire owner have found it hard. They will if they get there no doubt experience the same thing. If their ownership brings them success, I hope it spurs on our club to greater things. We need a partizan Bristol, everyone chooses a side and I am confident we will be just fine. Stevo
  4. A clean sheet would be nice, I would take that. Anything else would be a fantastic result. COYR
  5. England are a good team. Reason behind this is, no other team will fancy playing us, because on our day, we can beat anyone. Can you say the same about Wales. Our record in qualifying for tournaments is excellent. Our tournament play is abject at best. England play better teams than say Wales, in friendlies. We also play a lot more games than say Wales. Whilst we have been beaten by teams ahead of us in the FIFA rankings, a team like say Wales, have been beaten by teams below them in the rankings. For me, FIFA need a better system. With so much riding on where teams are in the rankings, it's important to get it right. They should be put in touch with the Duckworth Lewis folks. Stevo
  6. Just waking up in sunny Peurto Vallarta, Mexico. Last morning of holiday. City on player until we fly home to Victoria BC. Sunny but 25c cooler. City to struggle first half. Strong second sees us 2-1 winners. Stevo
  7. Calgary Canada. Will be working though, game kicks of at 8am. Updates via Sirius Radio and Text messages. Not looking forward to it. Come on you reds. PS Flew back for the Yeovil game. First game at AG for 3 and half years
