    I can’t imagine Lee Johnson coming from Nantwich to manage a side with their budget. When he’s told he has a Tilson to spend.....on the entire playing budget....it might well be a thanks but no thanks.

    I agree, I was referring to the prophetical nature of "Garner out"

    “Simple Solution -Garner Out-Lee Johnson in-u may hate him but he is a good coach and could turn things around. As things are at the moment with no crowds allowed in he has a chance away from the boo boys to make somethng happen.”

    Many a true word spoken in jest

    This bastard on RB is soo biased, never a pen, oh no ref never a free kick, yadda yadda !

    Yes, a marked difference between this loser and Gary Owers, who is regularly critical of City. If the Rovers guy criticises them, like today, then you know they were really ****.

  4. With regards to Wales being out of bounds to the English for leisure, not sure if this has been mentioned on here before. Did anyone see the Welsh Heddlu WPC plod on TV? I thought it might be a "Little Britain" sketch, but it was real: "You don't be comin' over 'ere boyo or we'll nick you ..." - great character.

     Maybe we could sponsor Scotty to relay back and forth across the bridge to the "Croeso" sign in his classic pose - you know - like Major Tom. It could raise a lot of money for the NHS.

    I’m glad they were because bugger all here in bs3,they are quite happy to post letters through my letterbox saying we need to stay together in these times and want to collect food for the down and outs but couldn’t spend a minute of their time for the NHS

    Bedminster sounded loud on Radio Bristol

    Very loud here in Easton - people banging drums, cheering and clapping. It was like being in S82. Maybe we could have an "Atmosphere" thread for future 8 O'Clock Claps for the NHS? What about chanting to encourage adjacent streets? e.g. "South Street South Street clap your hands". What do you think Robbored?

    There are two screenings of Love Actually in Bristol in the lead up to Christmas. One is at the Colston Hall with a full orchestra playing all of the soundtrack in time with the film. Truly spectacular, but at £49.50 a ticket it's a bit pricey.  The cheaper option is to pay £20 to sit in your own car, in the car park at the R*vers ground,  while you pretend to be Hugh Grant and your missus pretends to be Devine Brown.  :whistle:

    Sit in your own car in December? It'll be freezing - they'll have to leave their engines running to keep warm - well they are called the gas

    Eventually we'll see whether Pigg's "watertight contract" holds water. I doubt it will judging by the amount of time (and therefore money) being spent by the judge in deciding. If the sags don't like the outcome maybe a chorus of "Walk Small for ye be screwed by Sainsburies" would be in order at possible future cup derbies.

     I don't see the voting system changing in the near future and we have to accept that we are a very small fish in a large pond. It's no good us just standing and booing at Johnny Foreigner. I don't think that most countries will accept football authorities like ours, who are awash with Rupert Murdoch money, having unfair advantage over developing countries. We need to accept that the election is not likely to go UEFA's way.

     Finally, I don't believe any of the conspiracy theories you mention in your last paragraph. However, the USA does rampage around the world stealing other countries' things - it is called imperialism. As you say, money talks - fact not conspiracy.

  9.  I don't support Blatter, but I'm beginning to feel sick of the British media coverage of this. We live in a country whose Government supports small countries with oppressive regimes like Qatar for instance. Qatar is a petrol station masquerading as a country, yet we back major sporting events there, e.g. cycling etc. We support the Grand Prix in Bahrain. We support Saudi Arabia - one of the most brutal dictatorships, whose population suffers , whilst the rich Saudi princes roam around London visiting brothels and drinking champagne. It's about getting cheap oil and seems to fit in very well with the promotion of Prince Ali for the new FIFA President.

     Also, the US fraud inquiry and the timing of arrests is interesting. Presumably the inquiry has been going on for a long time. Is it coincidental that arrests have been made a few days before FIFA Presidential elections?

     Finally, there have been comments that England should have more of a say than smaller countries in the running of FIFA. Well we can't have it both ways. We can't go around the world backing small countries, but on the other hand not give all countries equal votes. We need to get over the fact that we are just a small wet island. If UEFA pulls out of the World Cup it will be a disaster for world football. Maybe that is what the USA wants. Their main sports are not truly international and they envy the World Cup - it is the best tournament in the world. Be careful what you wish for.
