  1. I had to do this for the Southampton match as I was away with work. It was a quick call to supporters services and I had the tickets emailed to me to forward on within 5 mins. It was really very easy to do!
  2. I know they're desperate to fund the BCFC Retirement Home, but trying to sign 40 year old Jamal Campbell-Ryce is surely going a step too far!
  3. Weird assed hashtag as well. #EveryMoment
  4. They are, but they're only removing the bottom half of the pillars. They're not stupid enough to remove the whole thing, that'd be ludicrous....
  5. I don't think Cornick was booked for the pen. On Sky they seemed to think it was Williams for his protests that was booked. As for appealing bookings, this can only be done in the case of mistaken identity....I mean the ref did mistakenly identify Zak as someone who made any sort of contact with a player, but no, it can't be appealed on the basis of the refs incompetence. I think I'm right in thinking that the FA could decide to rescind the card without appeal if they decide they want to punish him for diving, but it's unlikely that would happen for an incident outside of the box. Shite position to hold, but there you go.
  6. But...but...but.... you can't keep him and Williams. The two just cannot be on the pitch at the same time.... according to some! And those "some" should just re-watch last night back and if they still believe it, then they should give up watching football altogether..
  7. That's just being facetious... There was a reason the phrase was in inverted commas, as well you know!
  8. As noted on another thread. These are our two best performances of the season and the two that least resemble "Manning-ball". The only thing we can hope is that he now recognises what works and fine-tunes that.
  9. I feel like I've won the lottery....! Such a grim part of the country whose most popular tourist attraction is the sign saying "You are now leaving Wigan"! Still, it pays the bills I guess!
  10. Watching all lonely from a Wigan hotel room I was delighted with what I saw tonight. There is an air of caution to be mindful of though, and that is that we played the same way in the first half on Saturday and the same way as we did against Watford. That, last night, was absolutely not Manning-ball and showed that our strengths lie in other tactics. My worry is that against a struggling side like QPR we revert back to MB and try and bore the opposition into submission. I just hope he finally realises that taking the game to the opposition and quick counter attacks is when we look at our best. Keep up with that style towards the end of the season and a little glimmer of hope starts to spark. In terms of players, is anyone else getting bored of saying "Joe Williams was outstanding today"? The man is possessed and needs to be signed up immediately.
  11. I have a recollection of it being sung, but my memory's so bad I don't have any timeframe on it....wouldn't have been Liam Rosenior, would it? Would seem to fit. Flip it round and we could sing it to Mickey Maynards son if he were to ever make it as a pro!
  12. He's been to loads of matches over the last few years....usually sits in the Heineken Lounge corner of the Lansdown.
  13. Just came to mind... Dublin's fair city... No link to Bristol whatsoever, simple, harmless but always used to catch on... In Dublin's fair city Where the girls are so pretty I first laid my eyes on sweet Molly Malone As she wheeled her wheelbarrow Down streets short and narrow singing , , , City!
  14. Good luck getting Taylor Gardner-Hickman to scan there! You apparently!
  15. We used to believe We used to belieeeeeve We're Bristol City We used to believe! (c)
  16. 100%. I don't think anyone has ever actually come up with a reason - compelling or otherwise - for us singing that. I guess that's maybe because those that don't see anything wrong with it are singing it autobiographically! Nothing wrong with singing the original to reclaim it. I do question the intelligence of some of our fanbase at times......
  17. Hi Jerry. I can't make the match on Tuesday so my brother has said he'll be able to take my lad, Matthew, down. I need to transfer both my ticket and Matthews as both are in my Google wallet. From looking at the guide I see I will need to link my brother's supporter id (if he had one) to my account so I can assign my ticket to him, but how do I transfer Matthews ticket over to him so he can scan him in? Thanks Steve
  18. The whole article is an exercise in ifs, buts, maybes and "we don't have a clue if this will come in, when it might come in, what will be included and what level it might be trialled at"! I'm frankly amazed they managed to stretch it out to a scrolling page!
  19. Well that says an awful lot more about "people like you" (as you put it) than it does about many others on the thread. I know who's company I'd rather be in.
  20. And some would be going "ugh... No one died... No pyro, no party"
  21. 3 times: West Brom Twice: Leeds, Huddersfield, Sheffield Wednesday, Ipswich And they say variety is the spice of life apparently....!
  22. I'd be adding Andy King to that list but have accepted the fact that we won't. Mr dependable whenever called upon and experience in droves.
  23. No. And too bloody right. Should be an absolute top priority. For me, currently player of the season by a country mile. Edit: To clarify, I was responding to both your points, not saying it was too bloody right that we hadn't offered him a contract!!!
