Not blocked by SL, and JL actually follows me…and I’ve been critical of both on X.

Tins blocking was surprising (to me anyway)…but as for Exiled Robin, I find astonishing.

I think you might overplay any influence you think my tweets have!  Just a fan with an opinion, hopefully an objective, balanced opinion.

Shocked that you and Exiled were blocked, really cannot understand that. But I’m even more shocked that the club had a Technical Director on the front page of a marketing brochure for season ticket renewals. Shows the power.

Sure he will be back when we are in the Premier League. 

He will see us there for sure as he said before. Then he came back after one win.

Ipswich and Mark Ashton get promoted to the Premier league.

Whilst Brian Tinnion posts bollocks on Twitter about progress. Get the clown gone.

Mark Ashton wasn’t the problem, the owners appointing Lee Johnson as a former player was. Now it’s the same with the Tech Director.

How on earth does he hold such a role at a championship football club. It’s truly absurd. The consistent lack of professionalism is just beyond a joke now really.

At times the criticism of him on here makes me quite sad as along with Wayne Allison he was my hero when I was about 5, but it’s beyond belief he is the Technical Director at a championship football club.

Don’t get me wrong, there are two people above him that are bigger stumbling blocks to this club ever progressing or truly achieving anything, but come on, let’s be sensible, we need to employ someone much more befitting of such a senior role if we wish to have any sort of success.

He did have a lovely left foot though.

It makes me laugh how he is promoting Yeboah who is now at Bath City level, yet earlier under Nige was given a chance. Nige created a pathway, Manning has been happy with 7 subs and not allowing academy players a matchday experience. So I’m sorry I don’t get his post at all!

I really think he should stay clear of the Socials , BT is clearly far too kneejerk to be trusted. 
Typing then deleting Tweets ? That shouldn't be the actions of a big Company. To get upset and block people is weak and petty , specially when you take the role of unofficial propaganda wing of the Club.

Someone at the club needs to strongly review this. It’s not acceptable. 

To be honest I wouldn’t get rid of Manning first, it would be Tinnion to go. I really don’t think a former manager who was terrible in that role can now be in such a senior position, the behaviour is very up and down. Why block fans for having an opinion? It’s not like we’ve set the world on fire this season.

Appears he’s now deleted it becoming his new favourite habit 

Why on earth did he think it was a good idea to post that after a 4.0 thrashing on the final day. Let the noise go away into the summer and focus on doing your job. To call 3 points more than last season progress is laughable when the target was top six, which we are miles off. Embarrassing, sums the whole situation up. 

Progress apparently. Cheers Bri, perhaps stop tweeting and sort out the summer. 

Top pro, was so nice to my kids when they met him and also overcome with the emotion and passion the Leicester fans had for him too, a true legend of the game for what he achieved, three titles at one club including the PL. Nige did the right thing bringing him and James to the club, we must keep Matty now, don’t lose that experience and class, please see sense. We need players like that in the HPC. 

Great gesture, would be an excellent summer signing.

Struggled the first two seasons didn’t he? From what people have said on here they have spent a fortune to get up into the championship, then a bit more on top to get into the prem riding that wave of momentum. 

Ashton and Werhun were not the issue were they. Do you really think he appointed LJ? No chance! The Johnson family obsession is what cost us. We should have stopped being stubborn over the Palace semi final in 2008 and appointed Warnock in 2016. We would have gone up.

At least one relegated club ain’t going up!

Big repercussions for Leeds and Southampton if they don’t go up.  Suspect Martin will lose his job.

Norwich last season of PPs.

West Brom’s PPs finished last season.

Hull the outsider, their PPs finished years ago!

Are you that convinced on Martin going? Saints fans really like him and with assets they can sell they will be active in market this summer.

Fair.

Some of our best performances have come with him in the side, he isn't yet too old- the experience and knowhow, leadership is also (IMO) invaluable.

Personally we should I think make a big play to keep him and Williams.

Should be kept, we need a squad and experience is key. Why break it up? Sooner shift wages of Cornick.

I don't see any way Tommy signs a new deal, he's an ambitious lad and all he'd do by re-signing here would be potentially preventing himself getting a bigger move, a good season next season isn't a guarantee whereas being OOC next summer or getting a move this summer gets him that opportunity. 

What do we get for Tommy realistically? £7M? Can’t see much more with 12 months left.

We will sign him but it will be an undisclosed fee 

We will also spend big on a striker and if TC is sold then that nett’s off some of the outlay

This whole two attacking players is all we need thing is worrying me. We certainly need more to bridge the 10 point gap to top six, still think we need a Semenyo/Ogbene type wide player who can destroy teams with pace and power/direct running in behind, we have nobody who can do that, a powerful physical pacy striker, ACM minimum plus I would consider the Rotherham keeper Johansen.

Both of these things are true. There would have been some sort of end of season statement at some point, but a little form helps the timing no end!

The last JL statement was self damning and I suspect lessons have been learned. But anyone sensible still takes your point. However the last one was so awful the damnation was earned. This one was much better!

SL appears to have effectively handed the running of the club to Jon. I don’t expect anything from Steve until such a time as we get promoted or sold!

Pre recorded to be safe and sure. What a shame we cannot do a live phone in and on the spot transparency. Does worry me.

Klopp's farewell tour going well then 

And about to appoint a manager we were once linked with. Dearie me, ownership is issue there.

Liverpool have completely choked in recent weeks. Fell apart in the FA Cup, then the Europa League and now in the Premier League. They've gone from looking strong treble candidates, to a season which has totally fizzled out!c Klopp probably wishes he said nothing until the end of the season!

To be honest why did he say it? It’s not as if they have been even close to appointing someone!

Dreadful. Finishing on a par with us, Nunez is shocking! 

Arsenal won the league tonight. They want it the most, City will slip.

Only seen some snippets on Twitter but it was Nige and Warnock in the studio for the Leicester v Soton match tonight and it looks as though they were both on good form (I didn’t get to watch the match but I may need watch the recording just for that - and the 5-0 drubbing of course) 

Two legends, love them both. 

As above, Ian Gay said he is hopeful of both Williams and Tommy signing. 

Arsenal for me are the best of the three teams and will win it. I can see City slipping up.

Vintage Sunday afternoon entertainment that. Do feel for Coventry - went through the emotional wrangle about 10 times today. 

It was the most Bristol City thing to happen wasn’t it. Felt for them, United have big problems, I am surprised the new owners haven’t made the change yet. They need De Zerbi.

Not sure what his best position is Dave carrying a bit of beef to get down the flanks maybe stick him in midfield as were by far not big spenders i wouldave been looking elsewhere but we will see .

Been poor in my view but respect he had a terrible injury early on and missed a huge chunk of season. I personally don’t want to go for players from the SPL moving forward. Always flatter to deceive at this level for us. Average league. 

Believe Steve reads the forum from time to time (at least has hinted that way in the past). Therefore Steve if you see this please can you talk to the fans at the end of the season, we don’t want to hear from Tinnion, Manning, Jon, Marshall, we want to hear from you. 

Where you see the club going, the investment in the women’s team (or perceived lack of taking opportunity in PL), backing the squad with summer investment, the performance levels from this season considering the board expectations of top six (as mentioned when Pearson was sacked). We need to hear from the top as many are waiving on renewing season tickets.
