  1. Ian used to post on here many years ago, and his opinion was fact, and the only one that mattered. Even if you had evidence showing him he was wrong, he'd still be right in his own little world. He was very good at stating he had inside information, but in fact it was usually just stating the bleedin' obvious. A bit like stating that Manning has to start showing something over the next x amount of games or he'll be given the boot. It doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. Ian Gay loves Ian Gay, and is his own biggest fan. I once stated that he could start an argument in an empty room, and I stand by that. He probably (still) knows just about as much as me or you. He just gets himself a lot of airtime and makes it sound like he knows what he's talking about. I wonder if he's started going to games in recent years....
  2. I thought the same, then realised that after some of the stuff he's said recently, he quite likely did say that. For what it's worth, I still don't know if he said it, I'm just getting a sense of Johnson-vu again with all these soundbites and "not my fault" comments. What he needs to remember is that he inherited a side that was capable of the top 6. BT and JL said so when Pearson was sacked...
  3. First picture - from the Emoji film from a few years ago. Second picture - from South Park - Mr Hankey The Christmas Poo. So yeah, spot on @Major Isewater
  4. I recently had mine on for about 6 weeks whilst we were moving. Taking stuff from the old house to my mother in laws to store it as there was a gap between us selling and being able to move into the rented bungalow we moved into. Then once we had moved in I was moving stuff between houses, and actually didn't have anywhere to store it because the garage was rammed. Trust me if I never needed to put it on, I wouldn't. I hate the bloody thing but with a young kid and a dog it's a necessary evil sometimes
  5. It's the new soup kitchen. Fraid not saggy, your numbers are dwindling....
  6. Can see why there was a mixup between Elokobi and Webster to be fair. Uncanny likeness....
  7. With any luck if they're setting up an "academy" in Kuwait, they'll **** off over there completely. Can take the temporary stand with them as well.....
  8. Shocking defending, and not just one example of it!!
  9. Have to cancel all of those hotels that they were booking now on top of having to come to terms with a loss.....
  10. 15000 gasheads going to Anfield - Liverpool supporters don't stand a chance at getting a ticket for this game the way they're going on!!! I'd put money on someone saying about 40000 going there by the end of the day....
  11. Bottom left is quite worrying but the rest....
  12. Danny Wilsons teams pretty much isn't it? Wasn't Wilson fond of a few drinks himself?
  13. Used to be for season tickets, not sure about potd.
  14. Can just imagine it now, Nige with a wig and a couple of grapefruits up his shirt. "I'll get back at you Lansdown(s)"
  15. Why not, there's enough of our ex players there already.....
  16. It's certainly unusual. You often get pockets of fans saying they shouldn't have gone, with the majority being happy with the decision, but this does seem like the opposite is happening here - small pockets saying they're happy, but the majority completely baffled!! The only way I can see the club regaining some sort of trust, is by appointing someone like Nuno who is just a completely unbelievable appointment! It's also never going to happen because the board will be appointing someone who will just go with what they're being told to do.
  17. Never seen the supporters so united. Surprised that post on Facebook hasn't been taken down yet, or had comments disabled...
  18. Both depressing videos, and both confirm what has been suggested on here - Nige wasn't happy to toe the party line, and adapt enough. Not read through all the responses, so it may have been said elsewhere, but what is worrying is the bit about youngsters coming through and will continue coming through. In other words, don't expect much transfer activity. As good as some of the youngsters are, even with a fully fit squad we are not good enough for promotion currently. If we now bring in a new coach who doesn't get promotion, then surely we'll be looking for a new one again in the Summer. That's basically the stall they're setting out isn't it?
  19. Spot on. The imbeciles won't see it like that though.
  20. A few years ago I would be optimistic and think/assume that this would be the case. Now, I'm not too sure about it. With the amount of dross available out there, as a supporter you just have to hope that the owners have seen sense and have something really big up their sleeves. I really do fear that we may end up with another LJ situation in the respect that the purse strings will be loosened but with the wrong person in charge. We'll then need another Pearson type appointment to sort out the mess created......
  21. So chief exec leaves, head coach leaves along with 2 of the coaches, whilst the club is "openly" on the market - is something imminent and the "potential" owners want their own man/men in charge? To be honest I'm surprised but not surprised at the same time. Pearson has done wonders whilst having his hands tied behind his back in a way, especially after seeing next to nothing from any of the sales over the past 18 months or so, blooding the youngsters and getting us more solid, if not spectacular, but there is only so much you can do with the injuries we've had! This is all very Bristol City, and I'm half expecting an announcement saying that Fleming/King will be in charge for the foreseeable in the hope that we can get some points on the board and making it "very difficult to change a winning team". Other words- cheap option. Robins wouldn't surprise me as he's been linked a few times and Lansdown likes him, but I don't see us paying for anybody compensation so fully expect a lacklustre appointment. Unless something is imminent - whether that's a sale of the club or a new guy in charge soon - this seems like a very bad move which could have dire consequences for us. I really hope I'm wrong.
  22. Working (and soon be living) in Colchester now, and apparently the he's quite high up on the wanted list there. Know where I'd go if I had my choice...
  23. Early on after the sacking, if I was to go and put a few quid on Nige being the next boss he'd probably appear on the list as well. What does make me laugh is how Skeletor makes it onto the list (again) despite being out of work since 2020 according to that list! It's a shame he's gone, was doing a great job. What you can be assured of though, is that Wally hasn't a clue and will probably announce the tea lady as the next manager.
