  1. I know this won’t go down well with some, but currently the worst signing in our squad is Mehmeti. Hasn’t worked out at all.
  2. I have no idea about Andy King’s managerial prowess, but realistically what’s the worst that could happen?
  3. For someone my age, my memory isn’t amazing. I recall him being solid, if unspectacular. But most of all I remember going to Northampton away; Coventry 5-4 Bristol City. Sorry Fonts. That’s my lasting memory.
  4. Being a Bristol City fan isn’t great at the moment but I despise Joey Barton and it appears that his one way nosedive towards (a) bankruptcy and (b) irrelevance is continuing at an incredible rate. For some bizarre reason he’s started calling Jeremy Vine a I love you on a Twitter. Vine asked him to donate 50k to charity, he refused and instead offered to apologise, delete the tweets and pay 10k to charity. Vine rejected. Now a lawsuit for defamation appears to be going ahead with it looking like it’ll cost Joey hundreds of thousands. And despite previously bragging of his wealth, Joey has set up a go fund me to pay for his legal fees. It’s just beyond incredible. I think we’re starting to see the beginning of the end for our Joey. Penny to a pound he’ll be bankrupt and in prison before long. So I take this opportunity to thank Joey for offering me some solace in the face of Manningball. Long may his demise continue.
  5. With the two easiest games of the season to follow….
  6. Thanks mate. I made the mistake of giving kids the option. They chose a farm park. Fortunately I didn’t stay at home to watch City. Every cloud.
  7. I read the title and I instantly knew it wasn’t a thread about Mebude.
  8. I am sorely tempted to take the kids this Saturday. @Harry don’t suppose you’d be kind enough to mark up on a map where your little lane is, for a quick getaway.
  9. Loving their form. 13 points from 7 games. Proper manager.
  10. Next season I imagine. But not for good reasons.
  11. If by ‘always’ you mean once every 10 games then I wholeheartedly agree. If there were an award for worlds most likely player not to turn up when you need him, he’d only lose out in the final to Callum O’Dowda.
  12. Here’s a pint of piss and a kilo of shit. If you don’t make me the world’s best chocolate cake then you’re a failure.
  13. We may well find ourselves in a position that Nige kept us up.
  14. I think a lot of the togetherness you describe there is what we were building under Nige. The foundations were in place and the deadwood had mostly been slung. But rather than back the best manager we’ve had in years, they stabbed him in the back. And that’s why we’re so intolerant of Manning when in reality he’s only half way up a sacking ladder that we watched LJ climb to the top of twice. Problem is what comes next. It’s either sack Manning - in which we have to go through our Mickey Mouse ‘best man for the job’ nonsense. Or, more worryingly for me, the ‘let’s throw money at him to prove he’s the right man’ approach - which will end up in us needing Nige again. We have some genuinely good players here now and they’re being made to look shit. Stupid club.
  15. Can’t believe people are suggesting it wasn’t a penalty. 100% a pen.
  16. We might as well write next season off too.
  17. There’s alway one team who makes a late charge for it. I mean, ordinarily it’s the playoffs. But we like to do it differently here.
  18. I’d be pretty annoyed if I gave a shit. You really ought to try it.
  19. Fair play to Wes. Looks a hell Of a player.
  20. Uhhhhh, I’ll have you know we have one of the tighter defences in the championship.
  21. Everyone back aboard the Manning Out Train.
