    Absolutely  fuming at this, injuries, no transfer budget, and they use results as excuse to get rid of the most experienced manager we've  ever had. 

    Yeah you couldn't make it up. In all my years have never so pissed off.

    **** right off Lansdown you narcissistic piece of shit.

    Look I'm not going to lie - no fan wants to see their team lose back-to-back games. And it hurts. However with 11 players (might actually be 12?) out, 6/7 of whom would probably be starters I find myself bizarrely optimistic. We could easily have got points out of the last two games and with a little more luck might have done. We are 5 points outside the playoffs with an awful lot of the season to go and an awful lot of players to come back in. 

    I get the doom and gloom and worries around SL and lack of investment - and I agree that is something we should be concerned about. However when it comes to the football side, the staff and players. One thing is really clear they are united and playing as a team, giving everything and stepping up where and when they need to. I felt at the beginning of the season we were an upper midtable side, I still hold that with the quality of the squad we have that is our true position. However, I also feel, NP has us playing above ourselves a lot of the time. With better injury luck and/or more investment I think we'd be in with an outside shot at the playoffs this season.

    ... I've noticed something that's crept into our game and it was really noticeable yesterday against a side who did it well. 

    Being able to control a ball, with composure, and make angles to receive the ball at the right pace. 

    We seem in our eagerness to play fast football on the transition to forget the basics. 

    Passes are hit in hope rather than precision with correct pace. 

    Often the first touch is like a trampoline and needs a second to control. Or there is no control and it's ' passed ' again into an area, in the hope it will be won again. 

    There is a complete lack of composure...everything seems rushed. 

    When we play well...we move into space to create angles and time to compose and pick a pass. We aren't doing that so often now. 

    It's so rushed. And so many times players are cutting off a pass to themselves by standing in a straight line with an opponent in between. No angle or space. 

    Ipswich did those basics very well. They weren't outstanding tactically, they simply did the basics well. 

     

    They were very good at getting out,two or three times they had throw ins by the corner flag and got out comfortably.

    We just seemed a bit rushed in  ours attempts to get out.

    Confidence goes a long way.

  5. Thing is if Lansdown gets rid of Nige then everything is on the line.

    As much as i love what Pearson has done and want him to stay  most fans are only interested in results.

    If someone came in and immediately got results a lot would soon forget.

    Now i know the chances of that are slim to nil but we know how mad the OWNER  is.

    Anyway should be an above atmosphere Wednesday and we show our true support for Pearson.

  6. After all these years it's gona be our time i reckon. Never before have we looked like the real deal more than we do now.

    So many genuinely top players. France the only Country that could stop us for me.

    Would be some final.

    Jersey Bean will have all this covered but looking at the great away travel numbers already posted it should be a great day out and an emphatic away win for us. 

    I remember as a young lad it was the first London away match my dad took me too and we drew 1-1and Jerry Spring scored. Great memories from that season and those early years in the 70s.

    Oz are you mixing up Gerry Sharpe with Peter Spiring?

    We have had 2 long trips up and back from the north , I think it’s time the club rested the squad wisely I’d suggest a day out each of the 2 weeks for team bonding and relaxation, maybe a day at a spa hotel swimming and relaxing and maybe also a casual tenpin bowling day staff v players just 2 light hearted days away from the monotonous running and ball work 

    I suggest the boys just get on a 3 day bender, always worked in the past. Top 6 almost gauented.

    Man U

    Hahahahahaha !!!

    Best result of the night for me. Manu follower in work was telling me a couple of weeks ago "We should be beating teams like Brighton"

    Just love the feeling of superiority these ******* have.

    Many years ago went to Turkey on holiday the summer after Galatasaray had knocked them out .

    Bought a couple of fake Galatasaray shirts for me and my mate to walk into our football club in Devon for the first game of the season.

    To be fair a couple noticed the piss take.

    Ummmm , town centre ok the rest is rather debatable in my eyes 

    Dose anyone stay anywhere apart from a City center?

    No one comes to Bristol and stays in   Withywood or Hartcliffe or even gets anywhere near when   visiting the City.

    From Hartcliffe by the way.

  12. Couldn't make the City game today so we went local. Gloucester v Totton.

    Totton a league below altho near the top of  southern league Premier.

    3 nil away win Gloucester were so poor a 5 or 6 goal difference would have been fair.

    Gloucester manager Tim Flowers [ Remember him?} as far i as i could see wasn't even at the game

    Look in total free fall with the standard of the players Western League at best. A Bloddy shame for a place that is a City.

    One last thing,i never thought i would ever here a team booed of at H/T at this level unreal. The crap that comes from the premier league seems to have no boundaries .

    Presumably in reverse order. Between 1962-1970 Bobby Charlton was widely regarded across the globe as the greatest midfielder in the world and a gentleman. Rooney was a wunderkind and great scorer but generally regarded as low on IQ. Gascoigne had moments of brilliance, bordering on genius, but was otherwise a bigoted ****. 

    Lot of assumptions there.

    Charlton best midfielder in the world? Never heard that before Rooney low IQ.? Never heard that before either.

    Have you seen the result of Rooneys test? No chances are he's never taken one.

    Probably the most shit i'v read on here for a while, and thats saying something.
