Have they gone bust yet?!

Handsome chap to boot.

Adi Viveash makes Nige looks mild; can see how that'll end up with SL et al!!!

Will know what his best mate is on. Will know that the grass really is greener where AG is concerned; we are a busted flush, going nowhere fast. Better off out of here, with the benefit of extra £££; it's a no-brainer. Anyone advising him to the contrary is a fool.

What? They're planning another boycott.  How will they know if it's been successful. 

Maybe it'll be as effective as when they were threatening to leave their trollies full of food in the aisles of local Sainsburys...

I remember Paul Hartley arrowing one in at The Hawthorns, might have been then tbh.

Remember him smashing a ball (attempted shot) into the Atyeo in the warm-up, dowsing someone in a full cup of piping hot tea; picked out the person and gave them his kit, nice guy!

It was Korey Smith ghosting into the POMO that won it for us............

Not the 'corridor of chaos'?!

Last 6 games they've lost 0-1,  0-3,   0-3, 0-4,  0-3,  0-3.

P6  W0 D0 L6   Goals For 0   Against 17

The 0-4 was a FA cup game., but that's some streak.  Can the manager survive that run?

Too many balls delivered into their 'corridor of chaos' of late it appears; ooh, matron!

Easy, count the legs and divide by two !

Doesn't account for Darrell Clarke's four-legged friends.

Lolling @ Ray Lewington in the background there!!!

I am and still a huge Nige fan, however Manning and the team has my full support as they are not to blame for the anger and frustration we all have.

The Lansdown's and Tinnion, plus others who have overseen this shit show have everything they deserve in my opinion. I do fear for us if we don't start well Saturday.

I worry that LM doesn’t really have ‘a team’ per se. Lord knows how many combined appearances Nige, Curtis, and Jason had between them. Gnarly old pros the lot of them, a lot of footballing knowledge and nous and battle hardened scars. Not to mention the expertise of Dave R as well.

When the new gaffer looks around for seasoned support, which he will deffo need after nights like tonight, where on earth is it coming from?! I feel sorry for the dude, what has he let himself in for, I hope the move here wasn’t driven by his ego. We are all entitled to take unwise decisions in life.

It feels like everyone’s losing at the moment, he was clearly onto something at Oxford. May well have had a League title on his CV come May. Poor bloke looks downbeat.

Not knowing what you've got until its gone. If he was more self-assured you'd perhaps think that he would have done exactly that; stayed at Oxford, grabbed those honours, enjoyed the promotion, knowing full well that the further accolades/salary etc would come in time given his innate talent. Jumping ship at the first sniff of interest from a higher level is not what one Mr A Scott did, there might be a lesson in there somehwere. Saying all that, I do feel sorry for him, all us battle weary & hardened City fans are all too used to the characters in BS3.

Txiki Bergiristain he is not.

It’s the hope that kills you!

Is Chelsea Manning available?!

Being a pessimistic sod, I fear the season is over……

It might have just started!

I really wish they weren't 'yearning to be coached'!!!

People who I know who worked for HL, say John Hargreaves was all the brains behind the business. Makes sense to most. John H lived out near us for a while and came across as a very shrewd guy.

Peter! Chew Magna lad isn’t he, a whole lot richer than Steve L, possibly because he sticks to his garden & his equine stuff rather than pumping. Multiple millions into us. Great stories of him having a bottle of Sauvignon B to himself lunchtimes at HL. Simpler times!!!

Cov entirely different proposition with O'Hare in the team.

It wouldn’t happen, but hypothetically if you were Manning knowing what you know now (which arguably he should have known before) about the shape of the squad vs your style and the boards expectations vs the actuality of the scenario, and Swansea did come in for you, what would you do? A set of players better set up to how you want to operate and lower expectations from the fanbase because of the scenario.

“The city job wasn’t what I was sold and I want a club aligned with my philosophy”

Its a pretty easy argument for him to make.

He could do a Coppell-esque about turn!!!

Can't help think we are the very defintion of mid-table mediocrity, and will finish as such, with the change of manager having done nothing to either elevate or depress us from said position.

Body language doesn’t look great either.

Missing his house mate mebbe, plus the talk of a bereavement, and Nige's depature. A fair bit to take on young shoulders, regardless of being in a profession with such a spotlight.

Had we gone in at half time two up, which was possible, it’s a different game.

 

Something about my aunt and testicles...
