It's embarassing as a club crest, very child like. JL idea as well wasn't it? He seems to me to just be a typical child of a very rich man. All the crackpot ideas, but the lights aren't quite all on upstairs. Well in Nige, the truth hurts and the fanbase of this club has watched failure after failure for the past 20 years, a lot of money spent with very little to show for it. If this is the end for Nige, I think my interest will drift sadly.

The away match at QPR in September was the first time I'd ever been truly embarassed to be a City fan (Even losing to Rovers and 7-1 at Swansea wasn't as bad). Our coked up fanbase thought it right to take over the underground in shouting anti QPR chants at locals who were just going about their day, and even had chants at some on the tube that were actually Bristol City fans themselves. Generally these lads probably ranged between the ages of 19-25, scruffy as hell and were completely obnoxious to others. This is not normal behaviour, by all means have a scrap with rival fans in quiet places, I don't have an issue with that to an extent, just leave others who don't want to be involved alone.

Been coming across like this since August, I actually don't mind Ian as he adds some form of knowledge, but is just very cantankerous. His anti Pearson tirades are boring and his constant boring obsession with having a tall squad is just funny

Basically a Narcissist is probably the correct term. The person needs help, it's not personal.

What are you even on about? If you post something on an open football forum you will expect notifications and posts to what you say. It's not personal!

Oh is that who it is, it all makes sense now ?

Had some helmets at many away games this season - QPR, West Brom and Coventry spring to my mind

Yeah it's demoralising. But we need to get rid of the weak ones who are not up to it and recruit well in the Summer -

1. We aren't going anywhere either way this season. 2. He is aware of the FFP restrictions the club have (Not many managers will want to come here with that hanging over us). 3. He has introduced Academy products into the team. Some players have improved under him (Semenyo, Weimann, Massengo, Pring, Scott). We are poor at the back yes, but we have been hamstrung by Baker's injury and Tanner's. 4. We need a period of stability at the club which I believe we will benefit from in the long run. 5. We're actually entertaining at least, even if it is frustrating, which we haven't been for a good few years now. 6. I think the players ARE playing for Pearson, some individuals are not good enough though (Vyner, COD, O'Leary). Fair enough, you might want him sacked because you look at the results and are unhappy, but to me it's short sighted and would be totally the wrong decision.- 839 replies

It works well because they have very good players and a model that has worked for a long time at the club. When has it ever worked here? Do we have a squad of very good players? Nope. It would be a disaster to sack Pearson right now. -

You're a typical modern day footy fan. Club isn't going down this season, nor is it going up. NP inherited a poor side, with financial restrictions. We are where we are because we aren't very good. This time last year we could barely even get a shot on goal most matches. If we go down the route of sacking a manager every year again we'll be in League 1 by 2024, you're short sighted in my opinion.- 839 replies

**** sake Vyner -
Semenyo is not a striker they score goals

I don't want to be smug here... oh f it. ? -
The two home games before the Barnsley result in 20/21.. It STILL baffles me to this day how we managed to beat Huddersfield. Imagine thinking NP was the issue when he inherited a squad who were just getting battered most games and clinging on from minute 1

Langford weirdly is usually 'ok' at this level as Referee's go, but last night he definitely had a right mare and would not just allow the game to flow, which happens too often in English football these days.

I thought it was a good listen ?

For a club like Reading, certainly. The only attraction they have for players is they are located near London. They're a smaller fish than many L1 clubs (Portsmouth, Charlton, Sheff W, Sunderland, Bolton, Ipswich). It will depend on whether they keep some of their players but with their current financial situation, that looks unlikely as they have too many players too good for League 1.
-
I'd like Reading to go down. Never really liked them, always seemed to beat us and have really crap fans who think they're bigger than they actually are. Would be a nice bit of humble pie for them to go into League 1

That 5-10 minute cameo from him tonight was nearly up there with the infamous Nicky Hunt horror show vs Leeds

FIFA World Cups for me or Bristol City.

Reading at home match day thread
2015 replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Reading do have good individual players and could be dangerous if they turn up. It's in the balance for me, both sides leak goals. I worry if Joao turns up and plays well he could cause issues. Another 3-2 City win. -
I do like the podcast but over the last few months Ian has been very negative and clearly has an agenda against a few at the club. He is also often rude to Headhunter I find at times, talks over him, discredits his opinion whenever he talks about the past which is totally relevant to our current standing. If you ignore his antics and just laugh at how delusional he can come across as then you'll enjoy it. It's a bit rough around the edges but these are long standing City fans who love the club. To have a podcast out there after every game is brilliant and there are 3 good ones to choose from although I only ever listen to 3PIAP and FBC, but that's down to personal taste.

I'm not really a Rugby guy but do take a passing interest in any Sport when England play. It seems to me since the World Cup England have been woeful, and it's not English Arrogance to expect to beat Scotland and Wales at Sport but when you have more facilities and money spent you expect more than what has been put out in the six nations in the last 10-15 years. Thankfully our Football team is in a better position these days than Rugby which was never the case during the Golden Generation. There seems to me to be a lack of direction and hunger within English Rugby to truly dominate the 6 Nations unlike Wales or Ireland who seem to always have the bit between their teeth to not only beat us but to win the Grand Slam. The decisions being made on the Rugby field on Saturday has been happening for years as far back as when Stuart Lancaster was in charge, it's naivety, it happens every single time. I'd still rather be English though and have the better football side by quite a way.
