  1. What a lovely bloke......who has had a torrid time of it injury wise, with a very unusual condition. But it he has fought his way back and seems highly motivated, and it will be like having a brand new signing. Good Luck Ross, hope u make it to the Euro Scotland Squad, which will also mean you are playing well for City!!
  2. Good luck Andi.......you have been outstanding in your commitment, attitude and playing ability. We will all miss you, and wish you well in your future. Absolute Bristol City Legend, who will never be forgotten.......Sob!!
  3. Personally it seems like a good idea to me..............Projects? Neither TGH OR Mehmeti came from the academy, they were both purchased. I don't want to see Bell's opportunities blocked, but he is not exactly flyimg at the moment, but he is young and will hopefully come good again. Competition for places is what drives a club and individual players forward......if your good enough you will retain your place, if your complacent you won't, cannot see any problem with that?
  4. If there is no one from the Academy capable of stepping up this season as a playmaker, then it is not a case of blocking, but a smart bit of business to hopefully revive our season? I am certain that if ST proves to be a success, we have contingency plans to recruit him..............Looks like Win, Win to me.
  5. Thanks for your observant comments, in his correct position, and with a manager who seemed to get the best out of him previously, I think (Hope?) that he will prove to be a success? Just wondering...............Are Hull not sailing a little close to the FFP wind with the expensive signings they continue to make?
  6. Really? Talk about the bleedin' obvious? The poster stated everything except his name?
  7. Sorry but i find that that a little simplistic and glib? FFP is by no means a perfect model, and it needs to be refined and reviewed, as i do not believe it is achieving it's aims. Everton are being hung out to dry, but theyr'e ; other clubs sailing very close to the wind. I think FFP is failing in it's objectives and needs to be totally overhauled. "Suck it up"? Really??
  8. Similar to VAR .............FFP is a complete farce, punishing on occasions the wrong clubs while ignoring other's who are slipping through the cracks with clever financial manoeuvre's . I am not saying Everton are an innocent party, but I believe that FFP is not the level playing field it purports to be?
  9. I might well be wrong.......but there was/is a player called Elton Gomes who weighed in (Ha!) at 5 foot tall.................apparently could perform a nutmeg with the ball at his feet? PS. How tall was Lou Peters?
  10. Goodbye and Good Luck Andi........................Thanks for all the Fish
  11. I don't know if it is true, or maybe it is just idle gossip? But apparently Mourinho didn't rate him? Poor olde Chelsea!
  12. It is round about the 10th Anniversary of when Chelsea sold probably the best midfielder to have ever graced the Premiership, for 18 Mill to Wolfsburg? All that money and all those experts, and they let him slip through their fingers for pretty much a pittance in relation to his talent. Poor olde Chelsea........Ha!!
  13. According to Tommy, and i am not having a go at him, because he is young man doing his best. But when i hear him say....that he is learning all the time, and it's getting better and better , and he is apparently going from strength to strength? It is just not true, and it is not doing TC any favours, and as far as going from strength to strength, it is most definitely NOT playing to his strengths............ and for me it is just not working.
  14. Tommy stated on the club's seemingly party line 3Peaps podcast that he was learning all the time from the new manager, and loves his solo striker role in the team. .........really TC? Pretty sure you will be off in the summer anyway, so perhaps making waves is not a good idea? OK, he might be grateful to be learning some new strings to his bow, and the art of being a lone striker might pay off later in his career, but at the moment it is not serving his present club very well IMHO? The one up top striker role is just not working, and whatever Tommy and LM may come out with, just does not convince. As can be seen from our goals record against Birmingham, Millwall and Preston being a big fat zero.
  15. Do you think he might have already signed the obligatory Bournemouth pre- contract....seeing as we are their feeder club?
  16. As a betting man.........putting money on Wrexham to reach the Prem ahead of us seems a pretty solid bet.....you should check with Betfred, the owner used to like taking unusual bets when i worked there? Not sure about now?
  17. Until we sort out our "Wet Fart' of an attack and midfield...we are going nowhere. Manning needs to recruit an attacker and a midfielder to shake up our stale shadow of a side, if he fails to achieve that, we have absolutely no chance of finishing in the top ten. While i fully appreciate the difficulties in the present window............if we choose not to recruit, this season will be a right off IMHO.
  18. After 40 years..............home and away, i am constantly suffering from Deja Vu? Watching Bristol City often reminds of me of a below average soap opera constantly on repeat?
  19. I feel so sorry for the travelling fans....what a complete waste of time and money?
  20. It has to be said..............We are just such a massive let down , and just so insipid upfront .................prior to today, PNE FC had conceded 24 home goals...... Will it change? I hope so......but after so many years supporting BCFC, I somehow doubt it. What a complete non event of a match.
  21. Maybe we should try the Wolves U 8's.......... 1-1 -9 formation, as it seemed to pay off?
  22. I always thought that physically he resembled a rodent.........so not surprised he has started acting like a rat? Ha!
  23. He was born in Kiddlington and qualified due to his Irish roots through his Grandad who was born in sunny Dundalk? Top of the morning to ya.......ya pedant...Ha!
