  1. The problem people have is that it doesn't need clarifying, we are all too painfully aware of your stance because you post it almost every day of a transfer window.
  2. A thought to be lost TV appearance by Sweet from their "bubble gum" period. "Fringetastic"
  3. And how many of the earlier ones involved the apparently ineffective Massengo.
  4. It appears to be confirmed according to the thread in the Transfer Forum.
  5. Very popular with the players, maybe missed more than Nige in some ways.
  6. I know it's a long time ago and only one sub in those days, etc. But Alan Dick's didn't seem to be able to Manage the problem of what to do with your talented youngsters, when your team is already full of talented youngsters. I think the options are far greater these days, more subs, a greater range of loan options, and (although somewhat divisive) a willingness to sell the best when the right offer comes along. Dick's answer was to put his favoured players on long term contracts to stop them leaving, but he created a bottleneck and we lost some equally talented players over a long period. Manning is right to utilise the loan market to give our youngsters game time, as long as they are still seen as part of our set up and it's part of the pathway into our first team. We are still attracting youngsters because they can see we play them if they are ready, we will lose that attraction if we change that.
  7. No booking fee for me either, I have no idea why as I paid one for the London Stadium. I was surprised to see the issues that others had, I was out and about around 10am but I stopped in the car and booked it in about 3 minutes. The only oddity was a message I got saying that a transaction for £1 had been declined because the request was incorrect. Maybe that was the booking fee?
  8. I saw them twice back near the beginning. First time in Nottingham just after Because of the Times was released, a fantastic encore with my all time favourite track "Knocked Up" with a glitter ball descending over the crowd. The second time was the Ricoh Arena which was absolutely wild, like the punk days. California Waiting, Four Kicks, etc always goes down well, but there are some great tracks in an amongst their more recent albums too.
  9. Even the current conmen sorry, owners are talking about financing through loans, what do their fans think will be the collateral for these loans?
  10. Yes I know Harry, it was a bit tongue in cheek. I can imagine it must be very frustrating for you after the time you spent on him. Do you think he would have suited our previous Managers as much as our current one? Just wondering if we would have had the patience for him to grow into his talent.
  11. Yes, but also areas that are confusing me. It looks like Severn Beach, but there is an inlet with boats which I am pretty sure isn't Severn Beach? A chap who comes in our local is the Chief Payroll clerk on most things that get filmed in the area. There is a series called Boarders coming soon which they finished in November and he says is very good, so one to watch out for.
  12. As embarrassed as Bournemouth were over Alex Scott?
  13. I think there is less worry on this score as his injury wasn't muscular or tendon/cartilage, it's not likely to be a recurring issue.
  14. Yes, got about 30 minutes. Nice turn by Hooper Good composure by the 17-year-old with pressure on him. he spins away and plays a pass down the line. 86JAMES PIERCY Some good passes by Hooper Looks very comfortable on the ball.
  15. Finished 1-0, Piercy sounds quite upbeat and positive about aboth RM and the new centre half though.
  16. Looking at Piercey's report it looks like the Ross McCrorie show first half. https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/bristol-city-u21-bournemouth-live-9022582?utm_source=linkCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar
  17. It's easy to forget how young he is, I suppose they need to spread the minutes across all ages.
  18. I think he has a knock? I thought Nelson might get some minutes, maybe Manning feels he will benefit from 1st team training more?
  19. I thought that Idehen was released before Xmas? Ah well, maybe shop window for him? Araoye Captain in that line up is interesting, but could also be a way of getting him into the thoughts of some scout's looking for loans.
  20. Ask @Curr Avon, I seem to remember that Pulis told him the whole story when he was researching for the Ashton Eight Booklet.
  21. I'm amazed, I would have thought their Wembley "record" would have been in doubt. IF, they get there I am sure that it will transpire over time that no Liverpool fans actually attended, or those that did immediately switched allegiance for the day.
  22. He instigates the contact, next you will be telling us, "he felt contact and had a right to go down" He should have been carded not rewarded.
