Tinnion loves to talk about our sell outs as though our crowds are enjoying the football more under Manning. What he fails to realise is fans want to see ex PL clubs!

Mixed feelings about today. Think we will actually win and paper over the cracks and end up with the great return of Brian on Twitter.

The bizzare thing about the GJ side is we were not free flowing or good to watch in either season. Basso was the core reason for the play off run, when GJ fell out with him the wheels came off. Basso has to be the most inspirational player at AG in the past 20 years.

How they carved a career in football is amazing. Good luck to them, never saw the talent personally.

Arsenal will win the title. They just don’t get injuries, incredible really. Can we send someone to London Colney to understand what they are doing?

Tinnion in charge with the return of the Millen as number two I expect.

Good to hear the honest general feeling amongst the fans. The club didn’t read the room at all when they made the poor decision to sack Nige and his well respected team, the subsequent promises and targets around top six squad and aspirations and a progressive appointment have since been met with our Head Coach ‘learning on the job’. Simply not good enough, they need to accept the unfair sacking of Nige was wrong and in particular the Manning appointment was a mistake and move on, almost consult with the supporters group/club on next steps. Something feels wrong at the very top and after 22 years of the same leadership you have to wonder if time is upon us for change overall.

Phil Mitchell would be a better choice than Manning. At least he would have some passion!

I haven’t listened to a full interview since he started and I’m not going to do it now. Sooner watch Eastenders.

If we cannot beat Huddersfield and Rotherham at home they all need to go. I actually think we will go on a run, I don’t believe in Manning, but the games coming up are fairly winnable on paper. It will paper over the cracks and we will struggle next season without a doubt but I am 99 percent confident Manning stays. I would have sacked him by the Int Break.

Again I think we have to question the longer term strategy for the club as a whole here under the Lansdown’s. Feels an opportunity missed this season and has the investment been there?

Carlton Morris too, we were linked with him before he went to Luton. Another one we missed out on.

What an image, the Bristol City I felt connected with. Amazing what a few months can do, utter chaos!

Glad to see some debate on this. One thing I think we can agree on is the pain of losing is greater as an exile. A 10 min drive home means you can get on with your evening…..what I will say is as a minimum the club should allow free Robins TV access to the Radio Bristol commentary to season ticket holders who live outside the radius, probably more of an EFL and broadcaster discussion but I am bored of dated approaches when everything else in life is on demand. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to have a loyal points system based on radius either, but some consideration.

West Ham do it the right way, through a ballot system. Arsenal are the worst, season ticket holders never get a look in, same old fans get to go each week which is really unfair.

Most fans of other clubs I know think we are a Rugby city and call us Bristol. Perennial mid table boring club is what I get, this sums it up. Who are the constants? The current owners.

Respect to those who live locally and this is by no means a competition or remark on other fans, I’m a Bristolian from birth but haven’t lived there for a good 20 odd years and unlikely to ever move back. That said I am a season ticket holder of over 30 years yet feel frustrated in many aspects. Well I guess to start with, it costs probably £100 a home game without season ticket, so every game is an away game, six hour round trip, yet you don’t feel you get plaudits for that or recognition, believe me it ruins your Saturday more than a 20 min drive home (I’ve done both and for sure it hurts more as you sit on the journey mulling it over and get home late!). You get the odd ‘home’ game in London fair enough, but you still pay for your match ticket and travel! You can’t even listen to City on Radio Bristol without paying! Because you are a city fan who doesn’t live in the area….I mean how unfair is that?! So if you can’t make a game as an exile you are essentially out of pocket either way. A local fan who cannot make it can pass the time by switching on local radio. Basically I think us exiled fans deserve a form of loyalty! Now whether that’s loyalty points for distance travelled overall, discount off merchandise, or a free home shirt, but minimum allow exiled ST holders free radio commentary coverage! I could easily get a season ticket at Arsenal tomorrow or West Ham. But they aren’t my club, City are, however I probably spend more than a season ticket at both those clubs combined to watch Champ football at AG. So, what can be done to encourage that and commend those supporters (many I know on here) who commit huge amounts of time and money to get to home games, plus the fact travel away most weeks too. Interesting debate, appreciate life is about choices, but some are enforced too and one thing we cannot lose is our first love - our football club!

London to Newcastle is easy followed by short metro to Sunderland. About time us London fans had easy trips, every game is away game.

The fact that City are a mid/lower table makes it crazy that they thought Nige was underdelivering, especially with the lack of funds for majority of his tenure. They should have kept faith, it wasn’t bad, it was decimated by injuries. Plymouth, Swansea, even Stoke at home despite the result were excellent performances and dare I say entertaining.

Trains will run just not as frequent.

It’s costing more than weekend to Marbella, Ocean Club or Bristol City Football Club…..what a mistake!

I have booked Friday and Sunday train from London to Newcastle so hopefully that is ok.

Which makes all this PL PR talk from the board rather tedious. Do something different! It is very boring.

This is such a myth! Tinnion is not the one who does well with the academy.

Wouldn’t it be great if our owner could go on the show. Tell us what he thinks, haven’t heard at all from SL all season.
