  1. Buried that in the afterglow of a record win...
  2. it's cost cutting. For less popular games neither upper Lansdown nor Atyeo will be open so less stewards/ people in concessions needed. The upper Lansdown will be expensive when open with Atyeo the cheaper option.
  3. JPL is in between club Academies and grassroots like Ashton, Whitchurch Sports etc. My son was involved in BICADC which is probably now called something else. It was before they joined the league but he got to travel to exotic locations like Ludlow, Walsall and Barnwood to play equivalents sides, some of who were linked to league sides. Coaching was decent. There were a lot of deluded parents though. Occasionally some kids would be picked up by an Academy but in the most part the kids were good but not quite outstanding.
  4. Remember our attempt at the Viking clap thing when Magnússon was here? Possibly the most embarrassing thing we've ever done. Supposed to be very very slow and loud, building up to a crescendo. In reality it Sounded like the applause for a warm up act at Jesters
  5. they played last game of Rugby season last year and it was chaos. Massively overcrowded.
  6. But we also had Southampton and Plymouth midweek?
  7. 24 teams is 2 too many. There's too many evening games clashing with Champions league. I bet the POTD IS pitiful for most of these. Why fork out £35 to watch Preston at home on a Wednesday when it's on Sky anyway or alternatively you can watch Liverpool v AC Milan or something similar. Bet the club lose money for these games, especially if there's a small away following.
  8. Spot on. She applied the rule using the current interpretation. If you disagree your issue is with the guidance/interpretation referees are being given not with the individual ref. If someone is banging on about female refs then that's entirely a reflection of their stupidity.
  9. And will encourage people to renew their Season tickets
  10. We had 5 games moved this season from 3pm Saturday. Only 1 was due to Sky..
  11. Clearly we were very good last night. But Blackburn were shit. Pleasing thing is in previous similar scenarios we've failed to take advantage but we did that last night..
  12. Flats were completed in 1960. Looks like Southbow was just being finished in the picture. Flats were 1960 I think. There's a plaque in the foyer of at least one of them
  13. But, but, but. He's not a top 6 championship keeper or whatever bullshit category people wish to invent.
  14. Don't you think Steve Lansdown hasn't been drawing profit/income from other parts of the whole Bristol Sport arrangement? Pula doesn't publish accounts and owns everything....
  15. Almost like he was dealing with men rather than boys..
  16. He's been really good and we always look much weaker without him in the team.
  17. Yep. Though they probably don't have the consistency of mediocrity we do.
  18. They have a record of making mistakes and not acknowledging them. They also decide to undo the occasional good decision by making a bad one. The more I think about it the more a new owner really wouldn't have to do too much other than employ people who know what they’re doing.
  19. All good leaders know when to be inflexible and rigid and know when to be adaptable. I rather suspect Nige wasn't having their attempts to control him as he knew it would lead to regression. It was a power play he lost but he'd rather lose it and get sacked than carry on weakened.
