  1. Is it silly to be concerned we might still go down? Another two or three defeats on the trot and I'll be bloody concerned, as it stands, I try and remain hopeful we'll stay up. Not sure why really, the Championship is a farce, clubs getting parachute payments are going to be very difficult to overcome, the least that should happen is that clubs without parachute payments should be able to inject the equivalent in, without falling foul of financial regulations.
  2. Before the 10th round, Eubank Snr also told his boy to finish him off, as he didn't want it going to a decision. The point has been made on here, but it took a caller to R5L, before they considered that his corner also have <horrible modern phrase> a duty of care to their boxer.
  3. That's not something that happens, but previously banned members returning under another name get banned again, so thanks for 'coming clean' and saving us the legwork....... Bye.
  4. I found a small cloth bag in the loft, it has a couple of Victorian pennies in it, a farthing, a thrupenny bit, a silver sixpence and a couple of French coins. Not sure of the value, but I'd happily donate them to ensure the gift keeps giving for a few more days.......
  5. Hmm, maybe I missed a trick, I did receive a similar email myself several weeks ago, I screenshot it and put it on FB, quite a few of my 'friends' urged me to comply and send the requested processing fee and bank account details, I was a little busy at work and forgot, seems I may have wasted a huge opportunity............
  6. I am led to believe that the board of BRFC received an email from a Nigerian Princess, she has a fortune just waiting to be ploughed into a shabby, ragbag outfit. To enable the funds to be brought into the country, board members had to gift her no small quantity of shares and the clubs bank account details for her to transfer the sum of $300M dollars. Once this was done, she would give favours to the requisite officials to ease her passage to the UK and reclaim her money, leaving Piggs to see that she was a 18 stone transvestite all along, who was just after a visa for the UK.
  7. I might scream if he had a 3 year contract, but one to the end of the season, with the sole intention of keeping us up, then no, I wouldn't scream, I'd agree with you. That gives months to find a permanent Manager for the summer (as permanent as football Managers are.....) with time for him to plan his signings and structure.
  8. just saw this on Aunty Beeb's webpage, brought a wry smile to my face after some of the sags comments about Fredricks..... What goes round, comes round
  9. hello, yes, is that the Samaritans.........
  10. If you were a sag, would you really believe anything your board or Chairman told you anymore....... I struggle to see how they can fund an appeal and the risk of losing it.
  11. Do you really class them as rivals? I'm of the opinion that in the long term, it would be better if Bristol only had one team, I wouldn't expect any hardcore sags to swap sides if they were to go under, but long term, it would help with support and sponsorship.
  12. There was a huge range of opinion on who we should have had, from keeping SO'D, to totally unrealistic expectations of poaching Managers from higher divisions. Warnock was being mooted by some as a walk on water saviour, by others opinion, it would be like inviting a demon from hell into the club. Due to our tragic slide and continuing inability to stem this, I reckon even if SL had coaxed SAF out of retirement it would have been devisive, there was no one name that receieved even a majority opinion endorsing their appointment. It probably didn't help that the club didn't go through a recruitment and selection process, with names being banded about in the media and fans conversations. That might have brought some unity of feeling towards the appointee, even if after a robust selection process it was Cotterill. One last point, in my opinion, Pulis wasn't a devisive appointment, he was from the outset, unpopular with a majority and by the end, did he have any City fan left who would defend his appointment. All water under the bridge, but given his record since moving on from us, why was he yet another in a long list of Managers and Players whose careers seem to hit their low spot when joining us.
  13. I couldn't believe the bowlers, unable to see through a couple of overs at the end, why do they find it so difficult to bowl a ball that requires a defensive stroke?
  14. They had to make it last 3 days as the third day is 'pink' day, a cancer charity day.
  15. Crazy decision to play two ashes tours so close together, R5 was reporting last night that England have played more tests recently than any other nation. Still poor to fold that easily, but ashes series 3 months apart!!
  16. Well, so much for the new fitness regime. Went to the gym yesterday and noticed a hole in my trainer large enough to put my finger in. She made a formal complaint and I'm barred for life.
  17. It's not a affliction that you'd knowingly head to AG with is it, the facilities do leave a bit to be desired. At least its not too long to wait for another home game..
  18. All seems calm now, thanks to the miracle that is loperamide (and a City win).
  19. It's OK AtB, feeling better now, the win and clean sheet have obviously helped, although Baldock's one on ones caused some concerning moments
