  1. That was something Trump said, but opinions seems to be mixed on whether hot weather will slow it down. Even if a hot summer slows it, it may come back for the winter. The 1918 flu died down in the summer months, before returning to kill more people than ever in October.
  2. A coronavirus outbreak is going to rip through the place I work. The company I work for has recently implemented a very strict sickness policy based on Bradford Factor scores. Basically if you are off sick just a few times in a year, you get hammered. This has resulted in people being terrified to take any sick time and so the entire office is constantly full of sneezing, coughing and occasionally puking people. They also gave us laptops at the start of the year so that people can work from home if necessary. But they also demand that people pre-book any work from home time and so it has made zero difference to the amount of disease I am surrounded by. Last Thursday night/Friday morning, I had a bout of diarrhoea, I didn’t feel great but figured I was just about well enough to work. We had been told the day before that we could work from home if we wanted because of Greta Thunberg coming to Bristol and so I decided to work from home. I soon received some messages telling me that I either had to take the day as sick, or come into the office. WFH approval was only given for people who drive in and as I walk I was not allowed to do it. I said that I didn’t want to spread the bug I had but still had to make a choice between a sick day or coming into the office. So I went in. Two people were off Monday with stomach upsets, I have no idea if they caught it from me, but it seems likely. So yeah, I’m dead if a deadly disease strikes Bristol, we will all be forced into a confined office to spread it amongst ourselves. None of the above applies to the managers of course, they all work from home whenever they feel like it.
  3. As COVID-19 continues to spread across the world, it seems only a matter of time before it starts to really infect Western populations on a mass scale. There is talk of cancelling or delaying the Olympics and Euro 2020 and panic seems to be rising. What are your thoughts? Are you worried, or do you think it is overblown and we will all be fine? Personally I sit somewhere in the middle of the "PANIC!!!" and "Meh nothing to worry about". I think it sounds like this virus has the potential to kill a lot of older people and people with underlying health issues. And I don't think we are going to be able to stop it spreading, no matter how many times we sing Happy Birthday while washing our hands.
  4. I have not had a chance to listen to it properly, but I don't think it's for me. By that I mean it is not my sort of music, I am sure it's decent enough if you like that genre. The one to beat out of modern Bond themes is still Chris Cornell.
  5. Is that a photo of the Mem before the nuclear bomb hit?
  6. 1-2-3-4 Cockman walked out the door 5-6-7-8 the team followed out the gate
  7. The only thing they have to keep them happy is watching a 12 year old play off final. A final that they will never ever be good enough to reach. Bless.
  8. Your racism is appalling. And does our entire club a disservice. With the recent increased focus on racism in football, I hope you stay away from Ashton Gate and don't drag us all down to your disgusting level.
  9. Ronnie Size confirms the “family club” is racist to its core. "I have been going since I was seven years old. From an early age I have seen and heard some awful things in the crowds. "Bristol is well known for having that edge of racism in some parts of the city. I feel I have made a difference because of my musical journey."
  10. Bournemouth FC maybe. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bournemouth_F.C.
  11. We’ll have a tunnel to smuggle out the people who don’t have 14 fingers.
  12. I was behind a gashead couple in the supermarket earlier today. It’s the first time in ages I’ve seen any gas shirts in the wild. Pair of utter dumbasses as you’d expect. They were arguing with the poor lady on the checkout because they wanted some turkey but the shop had sold out. After a bit of swearing they wandered out of the shop. I don’t agree with Trump very often, but we really need to build a wall around Horfield to stop these people getting out amongst decent people.
  13. There’s a link somewhere to a counter which shows exactly how long ago City were below the inbreds. It’s been so long that the gap between us is allowed to vote on Thursday. ?
  14. The magic of the Cup, a little side like Rovers can get their name into the second round draw.
  15. The Christmas lights were turned on in Cabot Circus a few days ago and this was their first chance to go and see them.
  16. You didn’t let James finish. Away fans at the Mem often say “that’s not a bad little stand....that’s an awful tent”.
  17. A quick Google search suggests we haven't ever played them. You can see the 15ers writing "The shitheeds have never played Bromley which makes us extra special!"
  18. No, they got promoted to the Conference Premier PREMIER LEAGUE the same year the 15ers scraped their way out of it.
