Major Isewater

He’s the guy that’s meant to be making things happen.

It’s cold up north.

Were they lost ?

‘ Hugebury ‘ Nige , even.

Who could resist the charming man of the people , Mark Ashton. Selling 40% of your stake for up to £105m is a bit like making love to a beautiful woman.

Without wealthy owners bankrolling clubs the costs would be lower as players, staff and the like would not be able to demand such high wages. Pretty much as in the past the more successful clubs would generate more money and thrive thus attracting bigger gates and more revenue and the rest would have to get by on the scraps from the table. So , yes , professional clubs would still exist without wealthy owners. The Lansdown situation is an interesting one. If he really wants to sell then the asking price has to be interesting for a buyer which it appears it isn’t. So he drops the price or he leaves Aston Gate in a coffin and his wife or kids ‘profit’ from their inheritance.

Someone will find a way.

Amen brother.

We’re not in the relegation conversation either , seat of your pants stuff at Ashton Gate. Anybody want to buy shares in Isewater’s Squeaky Bum oil ? No, I thought not.

Lee Tomlin’s dyed his hair.

The lad’s got it. No one falls over as well as he does. I don’t think there’s really a question of whether he’s Prem quality or not . He is playing at that level and will only improve with experience.

Manageropause.

Which , although out of context , is not bad to watch a game involving the Gas.

I had one of these in black.

Top pro who must question his move to our club.

Well done to all. Has Manning turned it round ?

Have you tried Tipex ?

Kits are in the wash.

Not even a need …

I can imagine the reincarnation of Brian Clough going into their dressing room and telling them to chuck their medals in the bin.
