    Mark Clattenburg would have been involved in this I would imagine. He is a consultant at Florist.

    A truly embarrassing statement this and they should have the book thrown at them.

    Call it out i say - embarrassing once again from the officials.

    Wow, gotta disagree mate. Think two were for me. The handball nailed on - he moved his arm towards it and stopped the ball going to Wood for a great chance.

    Agree - i think all 3 could have been given and 2 were definitely pens. I can understand the frustration.

    I only remember one good chance that fell to Vardy which Cooper saved. I thought the Foxes were toothless.

    They also had a good chance in first half but overall they didn’t create a great deal

    Yup. Big fan of the original on North St. I do wonder though wether they’ve overstretched themselves in their seemingly relentless expansions. 

    As somebody who works in the industry, they don’t seem to have.

    Ah, Claire Young. You can tell we're in a GE year. 

    Surely there won't be the required interest in this anyway given Yate is full of gasheads, gypsies, and shops that still have pick n mix? 

    When i moved to Yate 16 years ago i thought it would be rammed full of gasheads, it was the one thing i was going to dread more than anything. However, the honest truth is i rarely see a Rovers shirt around and i would definitely say with some confidence there are more City than Gas in Yate, especially amongst the kids too who wear shirts. 
     

    Nothing wrong with Pick n Mix either 😂😂😂

    no point sacking manning, we would only get another cheap league one manager with a few results on his cv that will say yes to anything to get a crack in the championship. the people above him got the personality they want, relying on tinnion to teach him how to manage it. with his management skills leading the way now, i fear we are in deep shit

    Liam Manning didn’t come ‘cheap’

    Yep echo this the FAQ states:

    What happens if I lose or change my phone during the season?

    If you lose or change your phone during the season, please contact our Supporter Services team on supporterservices@bristol-sport.co.uk or 0117 963 0600.

    Cheers mate - i probably should have looked at that first!!

    thanks very much

    I hate to say the easiest option may be to call supporters services and they can email you a copy you can either print or use at the scanner

    Cheers for the help, i will call them now.

  8. I’ve had to change phones as my old one won’t turn on and im struggling to add my season tickets to my new wallet as the option to add is blanked out.

    Does anyone have any idea of what I’m potentially doing wrong or how I can download a different way?

    thanks

    5th September 1998 a bad day at the office, city were away to Swindon and England were playing at 6pm sounds a dream day. We had had a request from our friends grandad, could we go to a pub he used on the way to Avebury to pick up some of his fave crisps, they had a picture of the uffington white horse on these crisps as far as I can remember, I digress, anyway we were 3 0 down early, in one of the most frustrating CIty performance's ever, we hit the woodwork four times and got it back to 3 2. Absolutely shocking. The day got worse when we pulled in the pub, they had a big sign, no football coaches, the bouncer refused us entry full stop, we explained the crisps situation and he told us to leave in a pretty unfriendly way, then we lost 2 1 to Sweden, not a day il forget tbh

    Was that when Akinbiyi hit the bar in the last min? I was in the home end that day as couldn’t get a ticket, was horrendous

    If Conway would have scored 15-20 goals, he'd be going to the Euros. There is no ifs or buts about it. Have you seen their other strikers? 

    No it's not a dig at LM. It's deserved criticism of how he has treated Tommy Conway. 

    We disagree so we will leave it there. It will be interesting to see where he ends up after City. A good scout will know what he’s looking for in a young striker.

    No its facts. 

    Had Conway of had a good season then he'd be going to the Euros. 

    He probably won't get another chance because Scotland may not qualify again. That's the point I was making. 

    It's absolutely ridiculous and absurd for anyone to suggest that a striker should score every chance they have. Even Haaland misses chances jeez. 

    I don't think the xG backs up any claims that he missed sitters.

    We can't suddenly expect strikers to score every chance we provide them with simply because we provide them with so little. That's a unreal expectation. Real life football isn't a video game. 

    Once again, put Conway in a team like Coventry, he scored 15-20 easily. 

    It’s not facts as he’s never once been called up to the senior squad. If he had been playing for the senior side prior to the last 25 games or so then you would have a point but he hasn’t. Therefore its not a fact and just a way of having a dig at LM.

    Yep. 

    Tommy had the chance of a life time to go to the Euros. He may never get that chance again. 

    Put Tommy Conway in Coventrys team for example and he'll get 15-20 goals. 

    Liam Manning has destroyed Tommy Conway. For anyone to suggest otherwise would be laughable. 

    Manning came in and took Tommy aside and told him to stop being Tommy Conway, he wanted to mould him himself. This is indisputable facts. Both Tommy and LM have said this. 

    Rather than playing to Tommy Conways strengths Liam Manning has done the total opposite. But thats because Liam Manning wants to be the guy that gets the plaudits. He wants to be attributed with turning Conway into a different type of player. 

    Conway will leave here in the summer because of this with £s knocked off his value. 

    To be fair to Tommy he has tried to buy into Mannings methods but it just does not suit the type of player he is. 

    I for one don't blame the lad at all for wanting out of this shit show.

    Manning has cost him a place at the Euros and I feel angry for the lad that he has been treated like this. 

     

    My god, i know Mannings not popular but this is scrapping the Barrel. If TC was a regular for the national team prior to Manning then fair enough, but he’s never had a call up ever. He’s 21, if he doesn’t get another chance to go to a Euros then that would suggest he wasn’t ever good enough, time will tell on that one. As Harry says, he’s missed a lot of chances this season and that’s on him not Manning.   As for being one of the best strikers in this division….he’s miles off currently

    I mentioned it once but thought I’d got away with it

    I thought it was the best we had played for years, especially in the 2nd half, we battered a team that hadn’t lost for 25 games. I get the negativity currently but you have to give credit where it’s due.

    Apparently Aaron Taylor - Johnson to be the new James Bond. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the character die a horrible death at the end of "No time to die"? Then they drank a toast to him after. That's going to be a bit awkward for them in the next film. I know quite a few actors have played the character over the years but it will be the first time after death!

    Isn’t 007 just the agent number? So in theory doesn’t matter if an agent dies? Sure that’s what i read somewhere

    Won't be just us either. This TV deal could end up hurting attendances at Championship football far more than they could have imagined.

    Your right - i live in Yate and it can be a right ballache to get to the ground after work at times so i do end up watching more on TV when i just can’t be bothered

    There’s only one thing which annoys me more about this club than Manning, and that’s the fools who say “give him a preseason”.

    Why?! What has he done on the grass or in the transfer market to prove he’s worthy of anything!

    No different to the other ‘fools’ that think the people above Manning would get it right next time!!!

    Can someone who knows more about rugby than me tell me why England would kick the ball in the air with four mins left instead of keeping it? Commentators didn’t even acknowledge it 

    I asked this exact same thing when we had just taken the lead and we kicked the ball back to them rather than trying to run down the clock. I’m not a big rugby fan anyway, so also have no idea why they would have done this.
