Sleepy1968

What I said earlier to a mate, except for the word little. Come kick off I'll have convinced myself we're going to win. And yes, if we do, it will be on a level with Leeds & Liverpool results (even though those were away). On a level with our best results in most fans living memories.

I wore the West Ham one out today (at at last Saturday's match). It's still going strong, and will be making an appearance tomorrow night regardless of whether a new scarf is on offer. One to wear, one to wave around like a maniac when we get a shot.

Was Bobby Gould in charge of WBA at the time? I'm sure it was said that they'd offered us twice as much the season before.

Agreed, but since we can name nine subs for the fa cup, we'll be struggling to fill it with anyone who has a remote change of playing, whilst Man City could have a bench full of a team of international players. If you thought it couldn't be stacked any further in favour of the big boys ...

Let's hope he's committed to his girlfriend, and she refuses to move away from the Bristol area, sorry aerial.

[I don't play, my guess, based on a limited mind] Don't players have lots of stud/blade options, and their aim is to be able to move/turn quickly, but (obs) not fall over. The shorter studs aid movement but increase the liklehood of losing footing. I've seen Mark Sykes fall over at least four times every game (I made that up, but he is the one I notice falling over), so I've assumed it's the player has tried going with shorter studs and should consider a slightly longer stud if he feels he has a problem staying upright. So even if it is the pitch, there are things the player can do to mitigate the problem ..

Hey, I'll have a Babysham!

Yeah, he must have a shed load of shoehorns in his attic. One of the pods did a great interview with him a while back. I think it was probably one of stans 'a cider with ..'

My first City shirt. Taken in the photo booth in Boots, East Street. It's been all downhill since

The young 'un in the foreground seems to be developing a decent horse-punching fist.

City have one as well. When we won it the Football League got replicas made for all their member clubs.

Don't tell anyone, but I secretly like Milwall (whenever we aren't playing them of course).

Right, probably better in here that the away fans best pub thread Just in case anyone wants a ticket, there are several available at the time of writing; 46 in W3 & 5 in W13 (£30+£1), and 2 single seat tickets in S18 (£10+£1). Don't know why the S18 tickets are that cheap. (Adult prices quoted.) Anyway, link https://tickets.bristol-sport.co.uk/en-GB/events/arnold clark cup/2023-2-22_16.45/ashton gate stadium?hallmap

Yep, I'd just say we were becoming streetwise.

I think I saw one in the 80's or early 90's. Maybe it involved Steve Galliers.

And bloody hell, did it ever have to be.

I'm feeling really sorry for Bell. Running around up front on his own. We don't have the type of forwards to play one up. I'd like the display more if we stopped giving them the ball back unnecessarily.

I don't see the problem. I wear my half and half scarf out when its cold. Half the bars are red, half are white. I'm here all week.

I haven't kept up with this thread over the last couple of days, but for the record I thought Dave and Paul Binning were decent on Sound of the City on Monday. I always look forward to the FBC podcast, whether I agree or disagree with people's points of view. And I look forward to the 3peeps and Osib pods.

Well, not your second one anyway.

Near perfect back-flip. A 9.7 from me.

This *is* a thing normally as I've found. A single person has to book a seat where there are 3 free.

They'll be boring us one way or another.

I'll take Everton please. I've never seen them play, having missed the two fa cup ties (I think) we've played them in the last 25 years, and only seeing a handful of real first division games.

Not everyone is a parent but I think everyone is someones kid. Sounds to me like you'd need to be a clone or an andriod to gain entrance on that criteria.
