I'm watching from Venice. Saw a very entertaining match at the weekend where the locals beat Andrea Pirlo's Sampdoria 5-3 in Serie B...standard not always the highest but the most entertaining game of football I have seen in years.

Hoping for something similar. It's freezing here too.

COYR!

I was there last week and went to the "Arsenale" to look at their ground, gutted i couldn't get a game in

I like him a lot. And he’s a bloody handsome ****** too. 

He is top class, my missus has commented in the past about his good looks !!

He even got Yate Town in...love it

Apparently Bedminster got a mention as well 

He's vile to play against

Can't see it, if he does well Burnley will want minimum £5m which is too much for us, if they drop to a more reasonable £2.5-3m then I think that's because he's not had the half season to justify us paying that much. 

Don’t think he played that often under Kompany last season when in the champ’ not sure he rates him so the £2-3 million might be on the cards

All seems very pointless.

He does well and Burnley say he'll cost £5 million or they come down and want him back. 

Rather have someone who is here long term 

Excellent signing, hopefully will become permanent in the summer, now go and get a striker

Which 7 do you think are better?! The internals at AG are definitely up there with the best! Most are just plan concrete. In terms of capacity obviously we are way below some! Also the Atyeo and Dolman could do with replacing for sure

Certainly none of the “new” stadiums, Southampton, Leicester, Cardiff etc, give me AG over these any day

You can tell he doesn’t give a **** about the club, the fans or players (probably feels above them all) & probably also doesn’t want to be a coach. All of his interviews stink of “you lot are just wasting my time”. 
 

How they’ve gone from Rob Edwards to him in 18 months takes some doing. But anything that means failure for Dale Vince, I’m all for. 

What’s wrong with Vince ?

There wouldn't be any vitriolic posts remember he was loved by all 

The trouble is that he’s taken over what I think is a poor squad, you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear !!!

Will probably end up in North Bristol for the start of next season

Didn't they beat Leeds at home a few weeks ago? 

I fancy a draw for this one.

Think dirty Leeds had a player sent off early in the first half

As I said. There’s lots of other players who I’ve really liked. But those listed above are the very few who I’ve been absolutely adamant and convinced about. 
That list is my 95% to 100% ers. 
There a good list of 85% to 95% ers. 
And the a further list of 75% to 85% ers. 
 

I’m only absolutely adamant about the 95% + list. 
But yes; of course there are lots of other players who I like. 

Where was Tomlin on your list

we need a bigger ground, time to fill in the corners 

This game is proof that we need a ground with a 80,000 capacity

Email took 17 minutes from my transaction completing until coming through so looks like the Bristol Sport e-mail postie is feeling a bit lethargic this morning.

It’s arrived 

Got my tickets but no confirmation email !!!!!

Great player, his name still used to define a classy style defender, “hes like Beckenbauer”

Exactly this, a lovely and decent man as well, him and Bobby Charlton gone within a few months of each other seems apt

Would you take him as your next manager??

Absolutely not

You obviously either need to be bald have a beard or dress like a tramp to be a gas head , what a bunch

They obviously left their donkey jackets on the coach

Williams appointed this afternoon.

 

I also see Salford have hired Karl Robinson - quite a fall from Leeds assistant for a few games last season to the bottom tier this 

How this man keeps getting a job is beyond me, most overrated manager of recent times

Now that sounds like a good day out!

Only one meeting a year, in August or September I think, it obviously has to coincide with tide times,  only in Ireland

@Jim Davey @Rob k I find that if you avoid the "showpiece Day" it's usually ok, I've also added the DRF to my calender this year and will also try the Easter festival in fairyhouse, both new experiences for me

Dublin Racing Festival

The racing festivals in Ireland are great, Galway in August is crazy and on a lower level Listowel in September, both are always a good craic, plenty of other good festivals in Ireland as well over the year

Apparently we bid £2.5m for Azaz and agreed terms. Not sure how that information came to light…….

Lets really piss Plymouth off and put in a bid for Whittaker

The reason I brought this up Tom is probably through frustration  I understand  and agree with many of the comments and there have been some very good ones ( unusual for otib ) but I really do think looking at our squad how it is and how we are doing I think those 2 players would have made a huge difference, Leicester apart on our day I think we’re not far behind any of the other teams , perhaps that being down to a weaker league I don’t know

You’d think Semenyo & Scott (2 great players) would improve us massively though our finishing league positions the last two seasons might suggest otherwise or are we just over-achieving this season without them ?

The hot knife trick started as a good idea, but just a slip and you ended up with a hole bigger than the one you started with!

That’s because you were doing it wrong, in KW it was a hot poker
