Fair enough

Can we not have different opinions without telling people to **** off? I think it is clear the majority of fans think this is a mistake, but there will always be people who disagree, which is okay isn't it? For the record, I own my own business and I would not appreciate one of my staff (no matter how popular or good they are) questioning the way I run my business and I suspect this is what the Lansdowns really have problems with. I personally think that the club is in a much healthier position because of Nige and wish him all the very best

Bournemouth Echo reporting that they are interested in Antoine.....He could move in with Lloyd Kelly down there https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/20656890.afc-bournemouth-reportedly-keen-bristol-city-forward-antoine-semenyo/

You could try parking in the Sovereign Centre in Boscombe......think it is about a fiver for a few hours. Alternatively, there are plenty of side roads within a 15 minute walk of the ground that have parking, but I would advise against parking in Kings Park area as that gets pretty snarled up with traffic on match days.

Todays word was a good one ? The rude version is lewdlegame dot com but there are only a certain amount of naughty 5 letter words so it has limited appeal

I enjoy a bit of time home cooking and I love a kitchen gadget! There are a few at the back of the cupboard with the Breville toasted sandwich maker (doughnut maker, raclette etc), but the 2 devices I use much more than the conventional oven are : Anova Precision Oven - this is an amazing piece of kit (not cheap at £550) which can sous vide (amazing for meat), it can steam for baking (and even proofs dough if you want), it can air fry for frozen foods along with a few other uses. The other device is an Instant Pot (similar to Ninja) and this is great one pot option for pasta, curries and you can cook a whole chicken in about 35 minutes if you are in a rush!

COD is a really interesting one - in a way, he reminds of Granit Xhaka, in the fact that most of the managers he has played under seem to rate him, yet you will be hard pressed to find many fans who would play him in the first 11. There must be something about him that managers like that we don't see on a Saturday afternoon

Congratulations to OTIB for 25 years and a massive thanks to TomF and all the mods for all you have done, and continue to do. This forum really is a massive part of many peoples lives, and it keeps a lot of us who are away from the area in touch with the club and all things City related. I moved to the Bournemouth area in the 80's when I was a teenager, and now I only get to a few games a season due to other commitments like my kids playing youth football etc, so this forum makes me feel like I am part of the fanbase! Personally, I have been lurking and reading the forum for 20 odd years, so I have enjoyed plenty of great and interesting posters over the years (and I've also enjoyed a few posters that seem to really annoy most of you ?)......Here's to another 25 years of OTIB!
