Admin Ian M Posted September 10, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 In @BobBobSuperBob's latest write up from last Thursday's Q&A Mark Ashton & Lee Johnson spoke about a big learn from last season being that although they thought they had set the rules, it turns out they hadn't actually. They tell us they absolutely have now, 100%, no doubt about it. So, as a bit of fun, what do we think these rules contain? I'm going with this as the opener: #1. Thou shalt not threaten to knock the gaffer out if he suggests he might substitute you. Any more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Good post Ian - glad you raised it as I Actually thought this came over as the most significant / most interesting statement / message of the evening I think the living within a reasonable distance of Bristol was probably one No Dads / Uncles or brothers to post on the forum ? Don't borrow teamates cars if you don't have a full licence ? I think there clearly been a watershed emanating from events last season and that the players and staff have been now left under no illusion about the rules & culture expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
