My grandmother was from Antwerp so the Great Old are my second team. I love Brugge but refused to set foot in the club shop in town when I was there last year.

Daniel Ayala. He was without a club so was available outside of the window. He ended up going to Rotherham.

Sunday isn’t a strike day, it’s a withdrawal of not contractural overtime. I think the plan is just to run local services with such a small amount of drivers available.

It was both. RMT members on strike, ASLEF members withdrawal of non contractural overtime.

No it was a 9 car iet. The rmt were out that day so there was a limited service on Great Western with guards duties covered by competent managers.

I reckon that the badge has been enlarged over what was actually on the shirt, the splat robin! Bet JL wanted on the home shirt as well.

That works! When I double click it brings up my season tickets, I don’t use Apple Pay so they’re the only thing in my wallet. Cheers for the tip.

Gutted Chomp are no more, they were easily my fav burger in Bristol. Was always hoping that they'd open back up after lockdown.

I believe the plan for the west end track/ signal renewals at Temple Meads was to have platform 2 open, platform 13 as a through platform (rather than the dead end it is) and the down relief line to Parson Street. I’ve heard though that none of it will happen due to cost and it’s just going to be a like for like renewal (which is a great shame).

B1ackbird made reference to 05:00 because in 2004 ( I think it was) Plymouth fans sneaked in and unravelled a green banner by the old club shop. Of course they had to do it very early so nobody saw them.

There’s got to be a picture somewhere on here of that banner that those clowns sneaked in with. I’ve tried searching but I can’t find it. That’s a good enough reason for me to dislike them and hope they don’t get promotion ??

What sort of business has a shop with such a piss poor range at Christmas of all times of the year? I can remember going in the Bury club shop some time around 99-01 (remember Paul Mortimer being on the tram on the way back to Manchester) and thinking it was so much better than ours. I've always been baffled over the years with the poor range and poor quality of what our shop offers compared with others. I've got a boy who's 10 a fortnight after Christmas, can I get him anything for crimbo or his birthday? Of course not! That's over £100 of income the club aren't going to get from me ?

Taking my 9 year old boy to his first away game, we’ll be on the first train out of Temple Meads.

Half of Weston Milton station was reused to make Lympstone Commando Station when the line was singled into Weston…. Of course I’m sure you remember!

Surely Filton Abbey Wood was the last station to be constructed in the Bristol area?

I bought a club tie back in about 1992 so they defo used to sell them.

That might be the official number of Sunderland fans but I know through a Sunderland fan I work with that the Mackems were buying tickets in the home end because of the paltry amount of tickets they were given.

If anyone’s coming up by train, you might be coming up with the squad. I’ve just seen the Peter Carol coach reversing down the road outside of Paddington Station. Seems strange to pay for rail travel when the coach is coming from Bristol just to take them across London.

Totally agree, people seem to lap up his comedy genius whenever he's interviewed. Cock of the highest order....
