  1. It was so easy for them to go from defence to offence from the moment their keeper had the ball in his hands, when Bentley had the ball it was lumped down the middle to their centre half and so giving possession straight back to them, modern day teams with modern day managers don’t lump it down the middle
  2. We sold out for a midweek game at Bradford in ‘89
  3. When it comes to making crunch decisions he is hopeless and always takes the negative option.
  4. Didn’t watch the game myself but my boy just rang me and from Wembley and said Grealish was taken off after an hour but was the best England player by a distance, typical of some of the very strange and questionable decisions that Southgate seems to make at times
  5. I see you’re having a great run at the right time with the end of season being only 3 weeks away ?
  6. I was in the open end right behind the goal where we scored, right in amongst the mob that you can see jumping up, about 10 of us bunked off school as 14 year olds and we were spotted by teachers on the TV getting on the coach at AG before the game.
  7. Nothing comes close to that game or ever will
  8. He’s getting more like Brent every day, Jesus went to Nazareth, Bristol’s a big place but once i’ve finished here there’s Bath, Dursley, Yatton. You know... Weston, Thornbury. Because i’m my own boss...... Burnham

    Bang on, I am not or never have been any “member of a firm” but you were taking your life in your own hands when going to some away games in the ‘80s and on many occasion if you weren’t in a “mob” you’d be singled out scarfer or not, it’s the main reason why crowds hit rock bottom all over the country, I remember going to all sorts of relatively small teams who were happy to pick off a few City fans and trying to have a go like Hereford, Shrewsbury, Stockport, Northampton, Chesterfield etc, it was just the way football was at the time, am I glad it’s behind us ? absolutely 100%. Have the CSF released a statement on the shortage of HGV drivers yet? ?
  10. Small club, if they don’t get promoted back to prem in the next couple of seasons they’ll head the same way as Wigan, do remember them taken a big following to Eastville in the early 80’s and causing a lot of trouble
  11. I never knew that he was the dad of Dawn from the office
  12. Like Jet when he was at Ipswich, not a McCarthy player, why play either Jet or Tomlin when you have Skuse and Pack at your disposal
  13. 70’s, when they were in the third division?
  14. Villa?, how far back are you going?
  15. Leighton James & Jim Leighton played against each other (maybe) How about when the the Fulham manager was John Collins and his centre forward was Collins John ?
  16. A complete and total waste of police resources
  17. “Our supporters travel in VAST numbers across the country”. They just can’t stop themselves
  18. We we’ve been tedious for years, envious of big-hitters like Luton, Cov’ QPR, when did they by-pass us in playing such open, expansive and entertaining football?
  19. There’s a lot of truth in this, my two boys are in their late 20’s and have hardly ever seen a Derby except the 2-1 game 7/8 years ago, they have no dislike for them or their fans and get on really well with the odd gashead that they know, there just isn’t the hatred their was in the 30 years pre millennium because they are such an irrelevance and non-entity now
  20. And they usually hammer us
  21. Don’t know why you’re always having a pop at the BBC, fantastic value for money at less than 50p a day despite all the negativity and hatred from Tory politicians and the Sun, Mail, Express etc
  22. Brislington has always been massively red, don’t think there is anywhere in Bristol these days which is majority blue unlike the old days, might be wrong though
  23. Must be City fans in their ground again
  24. If there’s a listed pavilion in the way of development in Bristol it would usually be burnt down in mysterious circumstances.
