Gerry Gow and Norman Hunter are the last real leaders of the club and my god do we need players like that now. 

Unfortunately those sort of players have inexorably been rule refereed out of the game. Now it's a namby pamby tippytoe affair. That said Mick M, Neil W and Chris H seem to manage alright working around it.

Who’s the one to do the audit? The guy at the top?...he’s the one who appointed Ashton in the first place. A ‘top to bottom audit’ stalls when the guy at the top is part of the problem. 

Agree that’s where our problems begin and end, sadly doesn’t appear the sort of manager able to take criticism and then act on recommendations 

[Alessandro]

OH SHUT THE **** UP TINNION

 

 

EDIT: Sorry Brian, love you, but stop spouting that crap

Has Pat Lam got a football-loving brother?

Good shout that, his uncle Alan was a decent cricketer. 

[WECANDO]

As I said Wells on for the final 5 minutes and not a young un. Pathetic.

He's on £150K year over the package for a CEO in a similar sized company in the real world. Absolute charlatan.

 

I want him gone, but this is football in the 2020s. 

Everyone is on more money than they'd possibly earn in any other job they might do.

I will expect the slime ball to be on GTs show on Monday, not!

And we deserve a better captain!

Harsh. He’s probably not going the best character to be captain as he’s not vocal enough but he’s been one of the few bright parts of our season

If you blame him you get put back in your box very quickly on here. But yes Steve Lansdown is as big a problem as anyone right now with his strategy and decision making.

Its Jon though. Steve just writes the Cheque Jon tells him!

Not specifically Dean, but the 2 England coaches and the enthusiasm he showed.

We don't all have to be pessimistic doom merchants you know.

Is nothing to do with being a 'pessimistic doom merchant'. Dean Holden was completely the wrong appointment. Beyond me how anyone could fail to see that. 

'One born every minute' is the thought that comes to mind!

Pat Lam would not be at the Bears if they were run by jokers.

What is the point of bringing Wells on with 4 minutes to go why not bring on Bell totally clueless by Holden

You think Bell would benefit from coming on into this..?

Exactly. The guy has done so much right in the business world, he’s probably not used to getting stuff wrong. 

[Clevedon Red]

Sixy city strike at Valentines.

Jokers or not, they're not great at the football side of things of late. 

[Isawjonshaw]

hello darkness my old friend.....

[Fordy62]

6. We want 7. 

[BristolPete]

Of course we didn't need to buy anyone in the transfer window - as long as the Bears are doing well who cares.
We appointed someone as manager with no fight, who wouldn't demand players and he's passed that lack of fight on to the players. 
Rovers sacked someone for far less than this.

****ING EMBARRASSING.....GET OUT HOLDEN!!!!!!!

[Ska Junkie]

6.

Offside but 1 more please and at least I get £75.

[MarcusX]

Unfortuantely I put money on a 6th goal 

[Wade Wilson]

Give us
