Because it's not a cool all PL tie!

Bell end

Uh, wait.....something needs clarifying about this deal. Why, why, why on earth are we paying a fee now when we could get him on a free in the summer?

Replace it with Bournemouth, and it could be us!

Plus perhaps it helped lower the fee we had to pay? Not a bad thing at all.

Sorry but you opening sentence in your firdt post says he's not up to it! You didnt say we need to improve the quality of midfield more broadly - you've focused it on him (and as per the thread title). I dont disagree if your point is we need to improve the quality in areas across the squad IF we're to progress.

**** me. A forum is all about debate and different opinion and i respect that, but what the actual ****!!!!!! Some of the threads and posts today are insane. To have one now about Jason knight not being good enough! Really? Some people (thankfully not all) need to get their head out their ass, **** off and support Man City instead.

I can only asume he's still being brought back carefully after such a long spell out. Good management. Good point about Tanner. I think he plays with more confidence with McCrorie.

McCrorie - wow. What a player we have and considering how long he's been out as well, how natural he's fitted in. The guy is fantastic and will only get better.

Blinded by the money. Zero sympathy for any of them.

Agree and don't get me wrong, i'm pleased he's joined but the terms seem disapointing (and feels to me like a desperatation signing from us). The difficulty with McCrorie and Twine is that both need time to settle and fit in with the team/tactics/instructions - even tougher for McCrorie given his issues so far he's had to overcome.

Be interesting to see the PL punish one of their crown jewels. Bet there are a few squirming at the potential of having to do that. Unfortunately i can see Man City getting away with it. Which will probably mean the 'smaller' cannon fodder clubs in the PL being punished on far less terms to make a point but not result in relegation.

I don't see our season as over but i also don't see us making the playoffs. I don't think we have the quality at the moment to be a top six side.

I guess perhaps something may have happened last minute to change the terms and City weren't willing to compromise if it meant a financial deal that was bad for us. Perhaps he didn't want to sign perm or wanted personal terms we weren't willing to meet. I can support that if it's the case. If he does well, fits in and improves us attacking wise, then we'll have a better 2nd half of the season.

The outcome of this feels like a bit of a desperation deal from City. Welcome though Scott.

That's what i thought. The way Hinsleburg had written that scentance suggested to me something has/had gone wrong.

What's happened to the TGH deal? Is it off? Have i missed something?

Ah, that wonderful feeling of coming up against a struggling team and just knowing we'll get beaten. Classic Bristol City.

I just had a credit back to my card, so bought it again and this time it's worked. Hope you get yours sorted. Annoying though.

Paid for my ST seat but got an error message saying i need to call the club. Then get a debit confirmation on my Cr Card.

Events this year have shown to me that we are run by classless owners who don't miss an opportunity to disappoint whenever they're presented with a chance to show maturity and professionalism (and god forbid a chance to earn some resepct back from fans). Would it be too much for them to show a small level of appreciation and acknowledge Pearson's time here? Especially at this time of year. No, not surprised at all by the way they continue to behave.

Are we allowed to add 'fans' to the 'rid list'?

Lets not get carried away. Next game we lose, OTIB will resume to normal. Happy Christmas.

If Wells is back, how refreshing would it be to see the Conway/Wells partnership sparkle again today?
