Think Williams needs to come off

I’ve no idea, it just appeared in my twitter feed

You're probably busy enough as is but it's a sport that is well worth checking out. Got more of an edge than football and works well for those that are disillusioned with all the play-acting endemic to the modern game

From an NHL Hockey app.

No, I know I’m partial to the odd other team than City or two…but it did make me chuckle.

What's your NHL team Dave? Mine's the Calgary Flames

Not with any of these new fancy-dan fabrics, but something that Sultans Of Ping would sing about, that sort of material that was dead popular back in the 70s and left your skin looking like you'd fallen in to a field full of stingers.

Gert big collars and players must agree to have either a mullet, a perm or a moustache - fines for non compliance, unless we have a player in their mid 20s who somehow manages to look about 40 thanks to a ban of male-grooming products and a refusal to use sun-cream.

That should toughen a few of 'em up. 

 

Mullets and perms are very much back in so you could be on to something here

Definitely move on from retro as it is a trend that has now run its course; I say this as someone with an extensive collection of old City shirts! Plus the next ones to revive would be the Sanderson era of kits and they look crap.

I like the away kit being black with purple and lime features; that one we had in 15/16 is a future classic.

Who else thought Ephraim was sent off moments before the final whistle? Even Robins TV said this after he was shown a second yellow. 

Thought he was at first although the ref seemed to let him off as the game was practically over. 

Poor old Tanner, really has not been going right for him for some time now

Why are you hear then?  Ever looked at social media and see the stuff posted elsewhere

But oh no, it's ALWAYS otib that gets battered isn't it

Thank **** I'm heading out of here soon. 

It's a bit odd, isn't it? Really that post is just a different flavour of negativity. Plus it isn't as if you hold us captive here, it's remarkably easy to leave if they don't like it.

A reminder that 'BRISTOL CITY TILL I DIE' is for those that find this place too highbrow - imagine that!

Bundu is an interesting signing. Has mates in Cornwall that he met when at Hartpury College, so probably why he was interested in Argyle. Played for Newquay once and was basically a walking cheat code! 

I've just sat in Bristol Airport for six hours for a flight that ended up getting cancelled. This thread has provided much amusement through these rather lean times. So, thanks OTIB! 

Totally switched off now. Lucky not to be 1 down. Need more subs as West Brom seem revitalised since theirs 

Still doing well. Wells is a weak link though

We seem to be very good at winning lots of things off the pitch while being utterly terrible at ever winning anything on it.

I spoke with my partner's grandmother, who worked as a CEO for multiple clubs in the late 80s and early 90s. When I said I was a City fan, she explained that we had been known for our good community schemes and would also be very willing to share them with other clubs for the benefit of all. 

Funnily enough, the main experience she could recall with Rovers was when she was in charge of a London club. She had to organise security for a player that had received multiple death threats from Gasheads just before the two sides were set to play each other...

Who do you think the thickest English Footballer of all time is? 

watch this from 11:20 to 12:00 and you have your answer!

In fairness to Jack he does seem reasonably harmless and non-malicious despite his appalling geography 

Bring back 'Chicken' and 'Burger' I say!

The night game v Port Vale sticks in my memory. We won 5-0 I think and JET scored a free kick at EastEnd, I just remember the keeper looking helpless on the deck when it went in.

He was some player!

'It's played to Jay Emmanuel-Thomas...OH MY WORD' 

Favourite goal of all time, no doubt. Won't ever forget the explosion of red when it went in either

I'd have though Lansdown would have bought the Ice Hockey team so they could share the new arena with the Flyers as well. The Ice Hockey sells out almost every match at Cribbs with a 3k capacity. There's quite a few stadiums in the States that are shared by both basketball and ice hockey teams. 

Would love for us to get a second rink. The one at Cribbs is lovely but already not enough for a city our size given how popular it has been since opening.

Rule One regarding the Nest Egg

 

Is NOT to talk about the Nest Egg

Oops!

Delighted to watch the highlights and see how much more confident Sam already was with using his left foot and drilling crosses in. I had been critical of it earlier due to how poor he looked in the Birmingham game; glad to be proven wrong and hope it continues 

Tanner needed to be dropped so am relieved at that. I do like him but it does feel that he has been targeted a lot by the opposition in previous games.

Not a fan of having James, Williams and Knight in midfield together although what choice do we really have at present.

Don't rate Bell on the left at all, was youth level at best against Birmingham 

WE LOVE ZAC

HE USED TO BE CACK

NOW WE'RE HAPPY THAT HE'S BACK
