Another day, another expensive and well paid asset having to go for little to nothing, another reminder of how poorly the club has been run over the last few years.

I'd like Grimsby away as I want to go to Blundell Park before it inevitably gets knocked down. I reckon we will draw Leeds though.

Semenyo is not a striker they score goals
The Nest Egg replied to Better Red's topic in All Things Ex Players and Managers
Fair enough mate. Anyone who claims they haven't made a rash decision (or forum topic) about a player are lying. Glad you've given your updated reflections which I would say are a fair evaluation of Antoine. I do think that he'll become an established top flight footballer although perhaps not at the first time of asking given Bournemouth are looking pretty certain for relegation. -
Whenever I think "I wish we could sign someone"
The Nest Egg replied to 1960maaan's topic in Football Chat
I remember Ashton crapping on about how we could break the club's transfer record to sign him, as if any of that sentence was even remotely impressive or wise... -
Encouraging stuff. I would definitely make A Block my regular spot if it all goes ahead
-
I think it's hilarious and always join in when I hear it. Any mate I've brought to Ashton Gate have left saying that chant was their favourite and unique to us. Ultimately its all about having fun and not taking yourself too seriously. Fair enough on those who dislike this chant and prefer the more traditional ones as I understand the rationale why.

thoughts on Sunderland(A) match being LIVE on Sky?
The Nest Egg replied to Never to the dark side's topic in Football Chat
Cocks up my plans for going if true -
I did notice at the Swansea game that quite a few people left S82 at half time and joined A Block, which did help the atmosphere a lot (that and the fact we actually started playing football in the second half!) I'm all for the idea and if anything would happily join them as its a nightmare getting tickets in S82 unless it's a cup game.
-
Hell of a lot of fun second half.

Millwall away match thread

Nil-all at Millwall -
Yes, it was absolutely awful from start to finish. I said that myself. It was quite frankly an embarrassment; just like when S82 decided to give young Joe Low absolute dog's abuse against Lincoln. I do, however, think that giving away fans the entire Atyeo does not help at all. I tell my friends who support other teams that they'd love an away day at Ashton Gate. We've got a lovely city, they'll get to make a hell of a lot of noise in a stand on their own, and they'll most likely win too!

Poor, toxic atmosphere no doubt. The way that Ashton Gate is currently set out gives an advantage to the away team. However, when all we are being served is absolute predictable shite and there's no signs of change, people are inevitably going to voice their discontent...especially when they have to pay up to £40 for the privilege! So typical of the Lansdown era; build a beautiful new stadium but not get the fan placement or singing sections right. I get the Atyeo is the 'worst' stand but it would help the atmosphere significantly in we were in there instead. Going away is not just better for the team; it's better for the fans too.

Lovely goal mind -
Stoke City at home match thread
The Nest Egg replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Completely different discussions. With a manager you have a small base of known names, so it's plausible to name them. Owners? No. Its more you find out about them as they declare their interest. Look at the sheer diversity of those who go into club ownership. This debunks the validity of the point you are trying to make. -

Manager doesn't matter. Steve Lansdown is to blame and things won't change until he finally admits that and sells the club. -
somehow even more frustrating and difficult to watch than I thought it would be, how is that even possible
-
Given how this ref has been so far I wouldn't be surprised if the 2034 World Cup ends up being held in his back garden...
