It is not bad for their level. I don’t think it will ever be full and look forward to the "youve all come dressed as blue seats sitting behind a pillar" jibes.

 Read Olly's comment it's hilarious, but paradocxically I suspect Olly doesn't have a brain

Blue taxis, but they are subservient I guess?

Sorry if this has been posted before but this guy offers an interesting look at managers from a psychological perspective and, having been through Nigel Pearson's psyche with a fine tooth comb, now has an interesting analysis of Liam Manning.

Interview innit...

Liam Manning appointed Bristol City Head Coach
07 November 2023

Bristol City have appointed Liam Manning as Head Coach on a three-and-half-year contract until June 2027.

Manning joins from Oxford United along with Chris Hogg, who will become Assistant Head Coach.

Bristol City Chairman Jon Lansdown said: “Liam is a great fit for the club and the style of play we want. He has a very detailed approach to coaching, improving players and getting the best out of them as his record at MK Dons and Oxford United shows, while he has valuable experience within the (Manchester) City Group and in Belgium.

“As soon as we made the change Liam was our first choice and we are grateful to Oxford United for the extremely professional way they have approached the departure of someone who was doing a fantastic job for them.

“We are excited about the arrival of Liam and Chris and fulfilling the ambition we all have for the club with this talented and committed group of players.”    

Manning said: “This is a terrific opportunity and one that I’m really looking forward to. If you look at the vision of the club and where they want to get to and how they want to get there I think there is really good fit and alignment with my journey and where I want to get to.

“We are custodians and you have to respect and understand the past and the culture of the area that you’ve moved and leave the club in a better state than we found it.

“We’ll be doing our upmost in terms of the day to day in putting really strong processes in place, getting emotionally invested in what we do and having that passion, that drive, that hunger to improve everything.”

Manning is excited about working with the group of players he met for the first time today, saying: “You want players that you can coach and are mouldable and on an upward trajectory in their career. I think that brings certain behaviours in terms of drive, intensity and ambition which align with how we want to work.”

When city fans say we've gone for the "cheap option" Such a dumb thing to say

There is no such thing!

A bad manager will cost a club millions in the long run

But he could be cheap AND a good manager in which case the board have played a blinder.

Nige must have been kicking them at half time.

I’ve watched both interviews again now, and the more I watch them, I think they are spoof interviews - a bit like candid camera or game for a laugh. In the next interview, Jon and Brian announce that ‘after an extensive worldwide search, and considering the required qualities that we described in our previous interviews, we’re pleased to report that we’ve found the perfect candidate. We’ve signed Nigel Pearson on a three year contract.’

And HashTagBristolCity win the internet again with the elaborate reveal of Nige signing a new contract. Hangliding to Ashton Gate from the Clifton Suspension Bridge, Nige lands effortlessly on the centre spot, tosses his crutches aside and beams at the camera. And then I woke up.

There is no way this can be allowed to drift to page 2. Their situation will always be funnier than ours.

Current average is 22,455.

He's probably using that figure as the higher end, but I don't know what figure he's using for the lower end average.

Or is he using aggregate figures rather than average (although he says average) ?

Doesn't mean a lot without the figures behind it.

I'm thinking he is using the covid year. But even then an increase of infinity percent has not been properly calculated. I think what he is actually trying to say is a 20% increase or 120% of what it was. It's just that his mathematics is crap.

Jon Lansdown spends two and a quarter minutes saying absolutely nothing. Imagine my shock.

Chris Martin scoes for the saggy ones (is that his first for them?)

Antoine Semenyo equalises for Bournemouth. We'll see him next season.
