  1. Are there branches of Senior Reds in Spanish-speaking countries?
  2. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink @Galley is our king Say no more.
  3. This ain't going to end well. It's likely some poster will end up calling another a bell end.
  4. For me, and probably most City fans, given we are in the Championship, I am certain the definition of success is plain and simple. Promotion. By the end of next season at the latest. The very same measure of success that I had for Pearson (realistic or not). A play-off spot would not be success. It would certainly be a major achievement and milestone, but, if it didn't bring promotion, it would not merit success. After achieving promotion, the definition of success would, clearly, be something different. Above I have stated clearly and precisely, what for me, with the Lansdowns/Tinnion/Manning at the helm, would constitute success. I still await a specific, concise definition of success under Manning, including a precise (non-movable) timescale, from anyone that supports the Lansdowns' readiness to undermine and sabotage a popular, experienced and respected manager and eventually remove him on some false pretext. I hope they spare me the usual "Manning needs at least 3/4/5 windows" and other such lame excuses. The bigger picture of where we are going @Ghost Rider will be back where we came from, unless/until we collectively agree that only promotion constitutes success and set a firmly fixed deadline for that.
  5. Fine. Time will tell if you're willing to embrace being proved wrong. In the meantime, is there any way of transferring this virtue to Messrs Lansdown and Tinnion? With regard to Harvard. In my opinion, academics at that place and other such pompous establishments, are grossly over-rated and should definitely not be revered. Bit like politicians.
  6. See, that's the issue. Pearson didn't move on. He was ousted unfairly, and treated badly. If that wasn't the case, people wouldn't keep banging on about it and lambasting the inept Lansdowns. Because, unless the Lansdowns are held to account, what happened to Pearson, just as easliy happen to Manning as soon as the Lansdowns consider he is stepping out of line. So, if you want to focus on the future, let's do that. Step one: Let's think how we can get rid of the Lansdowns, because after sufficent time in control, they have demonstrated that they cannot deliver success.
  7. Slightly off topic, but how about Mark is a rat, Ashton is a snake.
  8. Love his willingness to drive forward towards the box and shoot (with power) from distance.
  9. Max max'd out today with that peak performance. You could say he played a Peaky Blinder.
  10. Three more welcome points. Don't care how we get them, as long as we get them. Makes me even happier to hear the opposition's fans say we didn't deserve them.
  11. We need to lance that "failing-to-win" abscess. Otherwise there could be an extraction sooner than anyone expected.
  12. Bit rude. I haven't heard anyone else refer to Manning in that way.
  13. Possibly the most relevant data from our last six games DWLLDL
  14. I met Joe on a number of occasions. He was a great character and a lot more fun that some might imagine. Also, always willing to help a good cause.
  15. Are you referring to that colourful character Jon Lansdown? If so, I totally agree with you.
  16. Poor Jack Clarke. Reckon he'll have a sleepless night worrying about Tanner skinning past him at every opportunity.
  17. I reckon we'll win three-nil. Nah, not really. I'm just mackem around.
  18. Front foot football is definitely not what we are playing. Our style is more one step forward, two steps back, three hundred steps sideways, and pass it back.
  19. If the artwork had been done by Banksy, the value of the Atyeo Stand would have increased tenfold at the very least. And I wonder, given free licence, what theme Banksy would have chosen. If the artwork had been down by Crayola Kid - well, you can draw your own conclusions (pun intended).
  20. A leaving card from Nige is much appreciated. A stark contrast to the calling card the Lansdowns left at the scene of their crime. Da doity rats !
