Top joke that, you win the forum today

Now rugby is a game I just cant get into. Tried and tried, just get no enjoyment from it at all. Wish that wasn’t the case as it could be a nice swap otherwise.

I don’t think I’ve rubbished anyone’s opinion. I might have said why I don’t agree with them. Tends to be the whole point of a forum. I would never just put… “you’re wrong” for example. Will take on board your other points though.

Another well thought out and presented argument… @Charlie BCFC couldn’t back this up then?

Exactly, they were all playing under pressure we have no idea about.

There are some clowns on here mate, add very little value other than running their mouths on here when you don’t write something they like, whilst at the same time offering little in way of debate or discussion. There are members on here that making trying to support the club as painful as the people running it.

I’m judging things on the 6 months Manning has been here, not the 5 end of season games that have no meaning to them.

Sorry, in what way?

He’ll still start Rashford over him

I’ve been to watch Brislington play a few times this season and I’ve enjoyed it more than being at the gate. I will be investing more time and money into local clubs next season.

I’m glad we have the same view of a forum. It seems many believe that you can only sing praise and worship the club. No other opinions are allowed.

I’ve taken breaks in the past, but that was for family/financial reasons. I’ve never chosen to not go because of the club itself before.

Absolutely! I’ve said in the past I do not think there has ever been a player where their signing has caused so much discontent yet they went on to become a hero for this club. Thank god that meeting of chance took place when both Wilbs and Cotts were both on holiday!

If you say so. I thought it was strictly hands off between players and officials? This just all seemed very patronising.

She done ok. Thought she gave some very soft decisions, mainly in our favour. One in particular where Tanner had the ball nicked off him down in our own corner in the first half which she called a very generous foul on. What I did find strange was the incident where she fell after colliding with Conway (I think), stayed down for a bit probably a little embarrassed and then got up. All that is well and good. But then James checked on her and out his arm around her, and having a laugh at what happened she put her arm around James waist. Is that acceptable on both parts because she is female? Wouldn’t have happened like that if it was a male ref surely?

With the season fizzling out as early as it did, it annoys me are even giving Twine game time. I know we would have paid a fee and wages but he has missed a majority of games since joining us anyway. Surely there is more value in giving our youngsters a glimpse of championship football at this stage? Minutes of football now could be vital to their development.

Absolutely mate. I’ve been around long enough now to not be hurt by other people’s opinions. Unfortunately it seems some still don’t like it when your opinion is different from theirs. The very funny and well thought out reply of “you’ll be missed” in relation to not renewing is wrong. Yes, I will be missed. Not by individuals on here, but by the club. Fans are the life blood of every club, both financially and physically. Just look how empty the ground was again yesterday. And the atmosphere, yesterday must have been one of the worse of the season and that’s saying something! I’m assuming season ticket sales aren’t going well as I’m sure the club usually release updates on numbers. Also noticed the promotional video being played on TV a few times to promote season tickets. That will come at a cost and seems pretty desperate to me. But I am just a fan who isn’t needed by all accounts…

Seen enough to know today wasn’t a one off. What have happened over the last few games is the exception rather than the norm. As I said before, if you are happy with what you see then good luck to you. Just staying where I am at with it. Why does the ban not surprise me?

That’s you’re argument? If you don’t mind me asking, how old are you and what’s your connection to the club, seeing as you seem to know more about the people involved than you do the football?

So what were you laughing at?

Yes, an opinion I was entitled to have based on being at the match! How can you start shouting your mouth off when you weren’t even there? Do you go to any games?

You are a clown!

So were you even at the game? Cus it was clearly a back three!

Feel free to create a thread of something you would like to discuss that pleases you. I wait with interest

I’m sure your stew will be the talk of the Bristol Sports office come Monday.
