Anyone know before the flats were built what was on that land? Also is it a bowling green next to the flats win one of the photos?

Really love the new Zak’s Onyego range looks great - Thanks for doing something that’s a bit different 

Looks like Jon was on the shandy's last night. Hope he got some Crayolas as a present for Easter.  

It would be interesting to see the average figure for the amount of people who turn up for the match compared to bought seats now. In 2013 there must have been very few tickets bought where nobody turned up, especially with season ticket holders easily being able to give their season ticket card to a mate if they couldn't make it.   

Nice touch from Plymouth to let Plymouth Parkway play a game at Home Park last night due to the recent weather on the pitch at Plymouth Parkway.

I don't think Bristol Sport would allow this to happen at Ashton Gate to help out local clubs with the Rugby and Women's team unfortunately. 

We'd never have the 25 year anniversary shirt and players parade at the closest match to 13th February 2049 to look forward to.   

Stefan Marinovic

I wonder if Manning will send him out on loan first given he's been out injured for so long?

Can't wait to see the magnificent seven in action this season. Tinnion has a cracking eye for a player, in Tins we trust! 

Grant Smith, Marcus Stewart, Matt Heywood, Alex Russell, Micheal Bridges, Richard Keogh, Dave Partridge 

I've deliberately listened to SOTC on BBC Sounds this season so I only listen to the sections that are interesting. As others have said it seems to be getting less and less every week!

@headhunter Please could Ian be given a time out from the pod. Completely putting football opinion's to one side he is the rudest, most obnoxious person I've heard on any podcast and lacks any form of manners. 

For anyone that's involved in youth football I've seen that WSM are running trials on Tuesday 13th Feb for U16-U18 players.

How much would Weston have got for this transfer roughly or would it have been on a free?

Putin could learn a thing or two from the Lansdowns when it comes to re-writing and airbrushing history. 

Anyone know who the trialists are?

Not a lot

Only our club can have a glorified call centre worker as it's Managing Director.

I can't see this idea lasting for too long. Fifa's directive for additional added time at the end of each half to better reflect the time the ball is out of play didn't last for too long at the start of the season.

Is there a reason why the games aren't streamed any more?
With no parking at the HPC and games being rare at the Gate I don't get to watch the U21's at all now.

Previously I've parked on-road in Failand and then it's about a 10 minute walk to the HPC.  

What's happened with Taylor-Clarke, from playing quite a bit at the end of last season to seemingly miles from the first team now?  

This photo shows the extent of Tinnion's footballing knowledge at first team level. How can he have ended up having more say in the running of the club than Pearson?   

There's been a few times where ballboys have made a difference to a game with a bit of quick thinking in getting the ball to a player so they should be told not to sit there and day-dream for 90 minutes!

Really? 3k? Are you sure

I shouldn't estimate again   Checking it's 1300 seats and 200 standing. I'm sure they'd fill out the Arena by Ashton Gate if they did move there. 

I'd have though Lansdown would have bought the Ice Hockey team so they could share the new arena with the Flyers as well. The Ice Hockey sells out almost every match at Cribbs with a 3k capacity. There's quite a few stadiums in the States that are shared by both basketball and ice hockey teams. 

Anyone please? 

Hopefully Yeboah and Araoye will both be in the first team soon. They definitely won't be pushed off the ball like many teenagers are when they start to play men's football.
