  1. I think whatever it is will probably be the biggest surprise/twist in the series. A lot of what happens next week depends on if they are planning more than one season which they probably are.
  2. Yeh anywhere off the Gloucester Rd is very good. Budgets will vary, but it's got a bit of everything. Many independent shops, bars, pubs and restaurants. I grew up in the north end of it in Horfield and bar the blue few moving in during that time it's a great spot for all ages really. Just as easy to get central as it is to get out of the city via the motorway M4/M5 and Parkway station will get you on the mainline for the trains. If you want something closer to Ashton Gate then perhaps Bedminster or Southville. North Street is quite similar to Glos Rd these days if a bit shorter. If you have a big budget and still want to be close to the centre then your looking at Clifton or anywhere around the Downs. Further out Henleaze or Westbury on Trym are nice. Places like Easton, St Pauls, St Weburghs, Montpelier are still a bit rough around the edges but are full of hipsters and have some decent places to hang out and are again quite close to the center. Somewhere like Fishponds is a middle ground and not far out. Unless your budget is limited, you will probably want to avoid the large council estates like Lockleaze, Filton, Patchway, Knowle West, Hartcliffe, Henbury, Lawrence Weston. I'd lived in Bristol all my life until about 6 months ago and moved to south Wales just for space, a larger more affordable house and a more pedestrian countrified lifestyle. In my 20s i lived in Horfield, Montpelier and St Pauls and wouldn't change any of that. For nightlife, i'll leave that to some of the younger forum members as im probably twice your age now but the city center, harbourside, Park Street are still the main spots to for a night out....i think! Hope you settle well and enjoy Bristol. I've travelled well both in this country and abroad and it's good city with lots to offer.
  3. Gavin was far more skillful and tricky but i don't think i've seen a player to this day like Smith who could cross a ball whilst running at full speed as well as he did, sometimes whilst sliding on his arse! Just knock it past the full back and go, no frills just pace and determination.
  4. Good caliber of an appointment for them but he's certainly going to have his work cut out to keep them in L1.
  5. Yep, great memories. It was a benchmark game. It probably caused more fights with my brother than anything else growing up. That and Actua Soccer on PS1 with its almost surgically accurate, VAR like offsides. Many a controller thrown in fury with that one.
  6. Match Day on the Spectrum for me. Loved Kick Off on the Amiga and Sensi was legendary. My cousin was in the World of Soccer version. Played for the Adelaide Blue Eagles!
  7. Nice souvenir. I think it does generate some banter between the players, comparing stats etc.
  8. I started going in 86 when i was 10, so i'd say possibly 87-88, maybe 88-89? I do struggle to remember back that far these days!
  9. Could listen to his dulcet tones all day. Always speaks with common sense and passion for the game and playes as well.
  10. Don't follow the golf much but always watch The Ryder Cup. 2012 still remains one of the greatest sporting comebacks i've ever seen in my life.
  11. We have unfulfilled potential. That's how I'd class us.
  12. And they will still be in with a chance to win 10k. So the club pay the players, the players put a few quid into the academy then if they did happen to win, take 10k out of the club? #gaslogic
  13. Oh he has, see Silvio's post above
  14. Yeh it's from the FA report. Link to it at the bottom of this page: https://www.thefa.com/news/2023/sep/25/mangan-fined-250923
  15. Correct, he did admit to the following though: a. Male: I’m not filming yous don’t worry. b. Male (Scouse accent): What are ya? A peeping Tom? Bit weird that filming outside our room init?. c. Male: I’m filming them d. Male (Scouse accent): Think it’s dead weird that, you haven’t got a bird have ya. e. Male (Scouse accent): One of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen that, mate. I’d burst into your house and check your computer. Filming outside our room. f. Male: I’m filming them, I’m filming, I’m I’m, I’m filming our door. ******* hell. g. Male: That’s not going to make the final edit, is it. h. Male (Scouse accent): Ay, was you, was he filming round the back? Why you filming round the back? i. Male: I wasn’t filming down the back at all j. Male (Scouse accent): You looking at our lads in the shower? k. Male: What you on about. l. Male (Scouse accent): What’s going on there? m. Male: I’m filming this, I’m filming our lads. I went to the media room downstairs and came back up. n. Male (Scouse accent): I’m gonna report you, it’s weird. o. Male: Crack on
  16. Blimey, no wonder he got fined. If anyone hasn't read it, in summary, the Argyle media guy was filmling in the corridors near the home dressing room and was allegedly called a "gay ****", "a bender", "a creepy ****" and "a paedophile" for doing so.
  17. Exactly the same scenario here. Email to say the full subscription being refunded, active subs shows £3.75 to be credited. Looks like they've just refunded everyone regardless.
  18. Great effort, just missing that little bit of composure when we did have the ball in good areas. You can't deny Leicester do look a good side as you would expect but i think the players can take a lot of positives from that. It won't be that difficult every week. Well done to the travelling support, we could hear you all game, safe journey back.
  19. Was ok earlier, im now in RTV by some sort of miracle! https://watch.soccerlive.app/soccer/NDcxMTI0MTg4
  20. Mines just kicked in, refreshed a few times and it just started. Keep trying people.
