If you follow cricket and it's history you might have a better idea of Bristol success. The first sports superstar?

One of the most impressive histories of any city in the UK and nobody successful? Must have been luck.

One thing is for sure, it's the first time ever that a managerial sacking has left me feeling no positivity about the future. His record was abysmal, but who's gonna make it any better? Paying him off has removed how much from the FFP budget?

It is difficult to argue with that. Especially when Tuesday's performance was a lot better. Which makes me think their hand is forced timing-wise on a specific candidate.

Maybe they've already sounded someone out who is interested, so long as they have time this season.

He left us as he wanted to be in Scotland with his family.

I got it 10 mins ago. Unless someone has hacked into the email distribution list it is true. Radio Bristol were about to announce it then pulled back. They aren't sure.

Surprise.

Surprise.

SL sells the land for social housing thus follows an inevitable decline towards unsavoury behaviour, noise, litter, crime etc etc. Let's hope that 50% is left aside for the travellers permanent site with easy access to the A370. They need somewhere to live too and the AV brigade, I'm sure, will be delighted to have a helped.

So much about the planning process / investment / economics is baffling. People will have personal agendas to prevent development then complain that the nation as a whole can't look after them properly. The same people who (often understandably) complain about development will also be the same people who whine that there's not enough in the governement coffers to pay healthy pensions, maintain roads and the state of public services. Where do they think jobs and prosperity come from? They are very lucky that they will be broadly insulated from the lack of investment in their area. If they were told their pension was being cut this year due to the cancelling of planned development revenues or their hospital operation couldn't go ahead ...

Those who would want it stopped will be as cunning as a fox. I'm sure they will wait until later to invoke some sort of process like Ashton Vale.

Have never heard of parts of a house being listed. Not a house where it's essentially all from the same era. Maybe that's just hearsay. Nice houses in their time but they are run of the mill.

"Decent" and "catering for the masses". Polar opposites.

Maybe the NIMBYS would support a move to demolish their own homes, reinstating the woodland that would have been there in years gone by. They'd never have permitted the building of of their own place if they'd been around at the time.

Perhaps in general. However, when it comes to sport it's spot on.

What is it with Bristol. It's a bloody awful place to live sometimes. The only people who have managed wholesale changes have been the Luftwaffe for goodness sake. Since the destruction of the oldest part of the city and with 70 years of time now passed it is nothing more than a patch of grass. That's the ambition of many Bristol people unfortunately.

He's hardly a shrewd businessman is he? Reiterate to potential customers that you're desperate to sell and really drive the bargain basement price.

Is the ground full yet?

Any pillars left standing boys?

Your story makes me fume. I would gladly support a complete boycott of the club on this until they fully refund you and apologise publically. This WILL happen again otherwise. How about an empty stadium until they start treating fans with a bit of respect? Won't last more than a game. They'll cave in.

Maybe they have access to more CCTV cameras than you.

Well done plod.
