  1. so 16 now then.. what time did we kick off? its 1520 now with me. I must be 4 mins behind on the commentary?
  2. its 1503 ... have we kicked off yet or do I have to listen minutes behind yet again ?
  3. And if he hadn't you would listen to him diatribe-ing for 6 hours and ended up emphatically believing he had !!
  4. All but Taylor in my formation. A few got this bang on. O'Drizz knows best heh... come on then lads. stellar performance required today before its too late.
  5. Lets up and at em, I say, with this..... And of course, if we played in our real colours instead of that putrid red and black we might win some more games
  6. I like the look of this but what do we know. I know nothing about Bryan mind..heard good reports thus far so perhaps subject to consideration ahead of Pearson who, by many accounts on here, has not been good of late! Arghhh... I think Kilkenny will feature mind so Skuse or Kelly to bench warm me thinks whoops... or rather Burns.!
  7. Only rumour mind but heard they have been known to come into use near a monastery.
  8. Thought Anderson was left not right? Not so sure about Pearson myself.
  9. Early Door team predictions then chaps? Moloney to start? Foster stepping left pushing Codge Carey to the bench? 2-1 for City to scrape home. Baldock with the winner.
  10. Actually it was his wife dictating incorrectly while Mick was chomping on his corn flakes.
  11. “I’ve got three reports as always and a couple of games on DVD. They played Sheffield Wednesday and drew 3-3. You can look at that two ways, they’ve scored three away from home but also conceded three. Either he has bad eyesight or unable to count.. perhaps he will do us a favour and put 9 players on the pitch tomorrow!! 1-1 either way me thinks or hopes.
  12. Discuss my fellow sufferers. Sorry,.... for the spelling error in the title... unable to amend it.
  13. Get Dave Penny on the phone... he can come back and finish the job.
  14. Not sure the word 'benefit' is relevant to this discussion though !!! If only the Football League Show was beamed across the waves... having said that I can pick it up on iplayer if I bounce my signal off a UK satellite phone and fool the Beeb I am, in fiction, in the UK.. like now.. stats will show the web master I am in the UK with my IP address when in fact I am not. Trouble is it does not always work. But, as you say, mustn't grumble.
  15. Its Rhetorical; clearly both are seriously useless. But why do fans put up with a web site far far worse than it was and a software system that makes the rather poor BCFC World a rather missed platform? The real question we should be asking though is this:- How do we find out if the persons(s) at the FA or Football League, who presumably made the decision, has been sacked? !!.... Because that is what they deserve. Seriously a shambolic transfer of power from one provider to another when we went from World to Player and now with the web site change. Since it is not exactly a life critical topic it is laughable yet lamentable and I suppose sums up generally falling standards in all walks of life. Off for a glass of Havana Club and still smiling after City stopped the rot today.
  16. Shambles. One of the guys that I genuinely thought had a bright future and, naturally now probably greater through an illicit means, has just defected along with how many?... 2 others. Unbelievable. Perhaps not but perhaps more unbelievable is seeing the remaining first team draw 1-1 with Panama at the Pedro Marrero Stadium in a world cup qualifier and with more Panamanian supporters than Cuban. My quest to find a Cuban gem is foundering on the rocks of the Malecon. Oh well, back to my cigar. The only aspect of this story that made me laugh was Blatter sticking his nose in by saying I cannot let this rest; no doubt he fancies a jolly to Havana and this is his opening gambit.. just watch.
  17. Top of the Conference tonight, just two places below the other Rovers. Highest ever league position for them if I am not mistaken. This season, finally, they look a genuine threat. Not many realise they are the longest serving Conference team now. How blissful for many would it be for the two to swap places this close season? Spare a thought for a moment then; Nailsworth has a population of less than 7,000 people, if they were promoted into the Football League, and they are tipped to do well this season, the town would be by far the smallest place to host a league team. I believe that title is currently held by Aldershot with about 25,000 +/- ? Well done to the current owner who is backing their rise. Now consider the other Rovers... I am sure it is not lost on the average Gas fan, as they contemplate the season ahead, how their relative plight and poor start compares with the steady and solid progress of Forest Green and their rise to the top of the table this evening. The Chairman of BRFC seems to be pretty hapless with his managerial decisions.
  18. Sorry chaps.. with intermittent internet in these ere parts or on a plane often I am not trolling enough to spot the topics. My sincere apologies.
  19. "Lupoli is scoring plenty of goals again for the reserves this season and he will score goals in any country, in any division, on any training ground - he is a proper goalscorer." - Thierry Henry. Of course that was then, 27 in 32 starts for the reserves, and this is now. Many may remember him from loan spells at Derby, Sheffield United and Norwich. He is a free agent after leaving Grosseto in Serie B. He has never really shone anywhere since those youth days. Unsettled, lack of direction or good management? Who knows. Someone somewhere will give him a trial. He is still only 24 and there is no doubt he has talent. It just needs properly harnessing. He could, on paper, be better than any of the fox in the box strikers we have been talking about all summer and if money is tight at City then giving the lad a trial might not be a bad idea. And, according to this report he wants to be back here... http://www1.skysport...-English-return
  20. Around the 3 min 10 sec mark... <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8zoQaMUvd_4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
