The Nest Egg Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 You reading the forum is a pretty open secret by now, and there's only so many walks that can be done on an island as small as Guernsey so surely you've turned to inane internet browsing. Bristol City, right now, are a bunch of baboons in a tree. Those at the top are seeing nothing but smiling faces. How friendly and welcoming! Look at how happy and content everyone is. Everything must be okay, surely! Sadly, us at the bottom are seeing what is really happening; there's nothing for us fans to watch right now but a bunch of red ****holes who seem to do nothing but throw out an endless supply of s**t! This summer is going to be monumental. Just like the one before that...but we don't have to talk about that if it reminds you of how much of a disaster it was. Use your billions to make a time machine, stick Nahki Wells in there and beam him up back to our 2012/13 squad where he would most definitely fit in. Then, commit to what had actually been going rather well before; getting those young players out on the grass, eager to make their mark and be proud to play for this club. Because let's be honest, why would an old Prem journeyman be really that 'honoured' to play for us? You would not have spent this much money on something you do not care about. Yet it's been apparent over the last year that we are starting to see the old ways creep in again. The time to arrest this slide is now and then these miserable last few months could be seen in the future as the wake up call that blew the cobwebs away and reignited our increasingly obsolete status as a 'club on the up'. There is still time to do this, but it would involve you making certain decisions that you have avoided in the past. Whether you choose to embrace that is entirely up to you.

Calculus Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Fiddling while Rome burns. Steve. Please do something. Anything. You've had enough time to think about Pearson. Either appoint him and let him lead the transformation, or let him go and get someone else. Quickly. We have a big summer ahead and need to make decisions and take action.

Guest Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 The silence from Steve and his son is deafening, the gap between them and the fans of this club is a million miles wide. Mind The Gap STEVE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans ARE football Ditto for me. @oldstandrobin Every game played by overpaid wonder boys who couldn't beat a team of six year old kids, every week without clarity about next season's management, the reasons for buying a Season Ticket get smaller.

robin_unreliant Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 I have a theory that Steve is busy trying to finalise new investment in the club. He has openly talked about it. If someone is coming in soon they would be involved in the decisions. Maybe it is closer than we realise and that's why SL has been saying nothing publicly.

Your theory does explain what we are seeing. Trouble is, as each day passes, the price comes down a little bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl&Toby Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Careful chaps. The Lansdown Loving Lemmings will also be watching. Don’t dare challenge or criticise what the philanthropic Messiah has done for us all. He who’s one of us - a fan. He who walks amongst us........ Be careful what you wish for they will say. It could be a Russian. Or an American. Or even - **** me - someone from the Orient. But no. We have Steve and Jon. But hang on. They’re overseas investors too. Ah well. Never mind. Keep fiddling Steve. You’ve fiddled for long enough. Why stop now..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerseybean Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 As fans our impatience is understandable. My own theory and hope is that SL and NP will be getting on very well virtually, both are honorable men who want success for BCFC. They will meet probably several times and agree a deal long-term for NP which will include detail on how we move forward on and off the pitch with recruitment. Both will know, from their own perspectives, what’s needed. We obviously hear more from NP who has made it abundantly clear what will happen to players ‘who go missing’ if they don’t very quickly change.
