How many good decisions have the Lansdowns made
Bristol Oil Services replied to BigAl&Toby's topic in Football Chat
Yeah? Spent last night with a Brentford supporting mate, and a Brighton supporting mate. Got loads of mates, me. Tomorrow, I'm spending the night with a Leicester supporting mate. And a Plymuff supporting mate. Don't have a Few supporting mate, though. Wouldn't spend the night with him/her if I did, mind. -

.... they would possibly wake from their delusion and slumber and their fantasies and be confronted with the cold, grim reality that .... we are shite and a shambles of a club and run by people who will never outwit the competition and that this is about as good as it's ever going to be. Let them be in their nonsense, they are better off there with their "if only .... " thinking.

The Lansdowns are a pox on our club

Why's that? What we wish for won't make a jot of difference to anything. -
If Nige was gone and Euell was in temporary charge
Bristol Oil Services replied to Davefevs's topic in Football Chat

To be fair to Nige, if his Aunty had Hibs squad this season I think they'd be doing better than St. Mirren .....

The Lansdowns are a pox on our club

It's very difficult to just tread water, in this division. To just pootle along. Who manages this? So success is getting promoted and arriving back in this division as one of the minted, PP clubs. Lansdown realised this, hence the rather steep challenge put before LJ: play-offs, minimum. If we don’t get promoted from this division, going backwards at some point is almost guaranteed. So, I say again, success is promotion even if we're immediately relegated. This is why LJ failed. Look where we are now. Rotherham, Yeovil, Burton, they cannot hope to get promoted from the Championship when they get to it. Any club with 25,000 seats and 20,000 plus fans in the Championship has to get promoted nowadays. If you don't, you're going to go back and down sooner or later. There's no in between. Not when, if you finish 17th, you're best player is off. Every time. So, again: success means going up, and to have any chance of that, 6th is a minimum (even though it's a ridiculous "ask." Lansdown still has to ask it, there's no other option). -

Not on "Cats or Dogs?" he's not. Although, if it's "Cats v @Merrick's Marvels' dog" he might have a case.

No, wrong. Wrong, wrong, WRONG! Give me fantasy over your blinkin' reality, please.

Thanks. When might the/a pandemic have been better "timed" for Bristol City, would you say? -

Thing is, Steve's got all that with his "lovely" rugby team, and their ******* shite too (and would be relegated as well but for the fact rugby's all over the shop) -
