Silvio Dante

Clickbait you say? Massive tits and will do anything!

This made me chuckle.

He wasn’t. If he was motivated, and turned up, then he was. Undoubtedly he is in AFCON for his country, but he played when he could be arsed for us, which was about 50% of the time. And in the last six months, 0% of the time. Its not about being “not good enough for us”, it’s about a fundamental lack of effort, which he defaulted to far too often for him to be looked on fondly for his time here.

I think you can sum up Ian Gay like this. I have two children, 13 and 10. When Ian comes on Radio Bristol, they immediately ask “what’s he going to complain about today” and at times “does he think he should manage us”. I haven’t influenced this, they have drawn their own conclusions. When you’re that much of a parody that primary school children think you’re an arse, you probably are an arse.

Playing the correct game, which contains no ads?

I’m feeling a bit of a moron now, because I hadn’t really paid much attention to “Tafkarmlf”. Thought it was an odd name, hadn’t read their posts that much so didn’t twig. Now it’s clear it stands for “The artist formally known as…” I’d agree - why delete everything just to come back. It’s clear they want people to know who they were previously on here by the user name (I could understand coming back on a different basis but using that name is just bizarre). I’d almost say there was a case for banning.

Not in side or on bench. Starting XI unchanged. No Bentley on bench.

Heck-Potato…???

Anyone watching the world seniors on Bt Sport? Brings back some memories, although Martin Adams had just had an insane run of finishes at 150+ Taylor vs Manley currently on Oche. Come on One Dart…

Roads.

I see their “big” (in more ways than one) summer signing worked out well then… https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/joey-barton-speaks-ahead-brett-6599512.amp

Because he’s incredibly needy?

Still going. Run every day 2021 happened but it was a slog by the end and not that enjoyable - hit about 4000 km but felt I was forcing myself to do it by the end to get Stravas monthly km and elevation challenges. Have eased off a bit this year - still every day (currently!) but not pushing the distance and won’t go if I don’t feel up to it (hasn’t happened yet). Doing a lot more shorter ones and even running with the other half - running and enjoying it again, not because I feel I have to. Pace coming back a bit as a result of all that and twinges easing. However. I’m obsessive compulsive and on nearly a 500 day overall streak. I may tell myself I’ll quit it but that’s not happening really!

Good Lad.

The word “ask” is doing a lot of optimistic heavy lifting there…

Off the top of my head: Alex Ferguson is the obvious although I admit that’s some time ago. More recently, you’d be able to say Dean Smith when going from Brentford to Villa, Ryan Lowe when going from Bury to Plymouth, Mourinho from Porto to Chelsea, Chris Wilder when going from Northampton to Sheffield United and the aforementioned Alex Neil from Hamilton to Norwich. Also Paul Lambert from Colchester to Norwich. It’s all relative and money is a factor but each left the new club in a better position than they found it having left as a success at the prior club. There will be more - that’s just a quick think through

“I wanna know oooooooo Why you’ve got no song”

@Fordy62! Reading the statement, I think it’s that they have established through the questioning of Greenwood they have enough to extend the potential charges, and as opposed to having to give a charge/no charge in the normal timeframe, the additional charges are both a way to increase (correctly assumedly) what he may be on the hook for and subsequently allow further time to hold him. The statement still refers to one victim, so it must continue to relate to his (hopefully ex) partner.

Has been further arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and threats to kill.

Interesting side. Return of the lesser spotted James Morton and Simpson/Wells/Bell/Conway in

Not quite sure the point you’re trying to make here. If Greenwood has done what it appears he has (and the evidence is compelling), he deserves a long stretch inside. Collymore not being punished for hitting Ulrika is neither here nor there.

Which again, is why I think we go for it. Not by overspending, but retaining and adding sensibly. @Steve Watts will tell you I called Scott’s value months ago. He’s £20m. Easily. It’s chicken feed for some prem clubs for an 18 year old in the international setup with (what he will have) of 40 games and combined double digits assists/goals at Champ. That’s Spurs catnip. And it will be in a year. But if we retain him for a year that value doesn’t drop. And FFP is still not a problem. So we go for it next year, as opposed to selling. It’s totally set up for that.
