  1. How much was the booking fee and was it per booking or per ticket?
  2. It's exactly this. We never field our 1st choice 11 in a friendly so if we were to get Arsenal and Liverpool down here for pre season they would be fielding unknown youth players while the Prem squad were in Dubai or somewhere.
  3. Can you change back from digital ticket to physical ticket for the coming season.
  4. Are card tickets still available next season. ? Sorry if asked before.
  5. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I don't believe Steve is willing to back us financially in the Prem. Yes, he could afford to but he didn't back the ladies team enough to be competitive and the rugby finances were curtailed also. It's why he is looking for investors or buyers for the club. It's not just the on field expenses. If we were to go up we would need a whole new personnel infrastructure in place of people who know what they're doing. That would be a huge financial outlay in itself. This is only my opinion of course and I hope I have it wrong, but Steve is far less prominent now than he used to be. I wonder why that is.
  6. Where can you play? Asking for a friend.
  7. What was the "announced" crowd and the actual crowd today?
  8. Too late for s/t renewals for people with other commitments though.
  9. Assuming that's approx 50% home and 50%away, that's an awful lot of fixtures moved from traditional ko times. (Unless I'm misinterpreting the info)
  10. What was wrong with the old system?
  11. Can we not also reinstate the Whitchurch/Hartcliffe special too? Why was that discontinued anyway?
  12. You could go all season unbeaten and get relegated if you drew every game. i.e. 46 points, so its not all about results. Give me performance and entertainment every time.
  13. I can't think of a recent manager, except Cotts, who has had us playing proactive rather than reactivate . I get fed up of hearing us say things like "they play with wide men so we have to counter that". All games start 11 v 11 so if they stick 2 out wide, we have 2 extra in the middle. I know it's not quite that simple but what do opposing managers tell their players when they play us? We should play our own game and see where it takes us. I want teams to worry about us. Let's lose the negative approach and see some excitement ffs. So for me it's performance over results for the run in. Next season won't matter to me as I won't be back unless things and personnel change. I can't think of a recent manager, except Cotts, who has had us playing proactive rather than reactivate .

    He will fit in well then.
  15. I read that as basketcase club. Can't think why.
  16. I was critical of Manning but it was more his boring style of play rather than his points per game. Many on here said they wouldn't watch Neil Warnock if he was manager because of his style of play, even if he got us promoted. I buy my season ticket to be entertained and that wasn't happening under Manning. The last couple of games have been better but it's still early days for me. The improvement needs to be consistent and then I'll happily admit that maybe he was searching for a system with these players. He may have found out what works well but he needs consistency.
  17. My money my club. Imagine a headline of...Nigel Pearsons Bristol City promoted to the Prem. SL would be livid not being mentioned.
  18. I'm more interested in the attendance today. I know it's a sell out but the ACTUAL attendance figure will be interesting. I know at least 4 of our 5 seats will be vacant although officially we will be counted.
  19. Not going or watching on TV. Soooo disillusioned. Mrs Marmite said "what's up with you?". I said I'm fine, it's the club that's sick.
  20. If we have a last gasp corner we would play it short and recycle it back to Max and the ref would blow up for full time. Its Manningball!
  21. Can't recall that word on this forum before. I thought he was a Roman Emporer.
  22. I'm just........not going!
