I’ve still not received my season ticket. My wife and granddaughters have arrived. 
I emailed them, and got a reply that mine was sent to my previous address. And if I can’t get to it, to pay £10 for a reprint. This was over a week ago. 
i wrote back saying that I updated my online account last year with my new address, and the error was theirs. Plus we’ve still got redirection and if it had been sent there it would be redirected. 
So far I’ve not had any reply and even sent an email on the weekend asking for an update. 
 

See if you can get in touch with Jerry, his Twitter is @BristolcitySlo. Mine didn't arrive last year and he sorted me out with a few E-tickets before they finally reprinted my card for pick up at the next home game.

Reading between the lines , I think it’s all  his agents doing 

Think this is probably the case. Nige did make a point of saying that he likes Han and what he can bring to the side, and it just seems to be an unfortunate situation for everyone. Agents are everything wrong with modern football.

Trouble is when Semenyo is back Scott will go back to wing back where he's less effective

Or would we drop martin

Klose on the bench who will be starting next week, and Kalas to come back. Vyner will drop to 5th choice. 

Why not play klose today?

I think he and Sykes will switch regularly as the match progresses. 

We have options for rotations this season. 

We shall have to see. But I see Scott as a wasted talent at rwb. 

Is Wilson injured?

Frustrating to see Scott at wb again, hope it's not the case for any part of the season.

The return of the annual Mildly Interesting Quiz which doesn't quite manage to take OTIB by storm each close season.

All questions BCFC or City related.

Last season's Champion was (yesss, at last!) Nogbad the Bad, and he, along with former joint champions @Alex_BCFC @Lrrr @RedM & @CheddarReds will all be hoping to take the glorious title again this year. As will previous undisputed previous Champs @ziderheadarmy &@The Enormous Turnip

Or could there be a new winner, perhaps with a new record score?

It’s pretty unlikely Alex Scott will be fit to start v Hull having only had 45 mins so far and being behind the rest.

But stranger things have happened. 

I think he'll start. But can see the reasoning for him not to. Think his minutes against Bournemouth will be a sign.

All depends on the offer, and lets not forget, he's just had an injury. If it was 10-14m and add ons, I would not be surprised to see him sold. 

He'll never go for as low as 10m, if it was this time next summer then maybe (as he'll only have a year left I think)

                            Bentley.                                             Klose.       Naismith.      Atkinson

Wilson.                                               Dasilva 

                    James.        Williams

                              Scott. 

               Wiemann.         Martin

He can't go on a free because of his age, we get compensation regardless

But thats fairly small isn't it?

I haven't been able to read/watch much three last couple of days, has there been any update on semenyo? Or still on track for an August return?

A friend of mine was there who supports Plymouth and he texted me immediately after the game asking who HNM was and wanted to know more about him. Massively impressed. 

It will be killer if HNM goes on a free next season

It may look shocking but structures are supposed to move and are designed to absorb and bend - known as plasticity, if it's rigid it's more likely to be brittle and will snap, the engineer in me wonders what the tolerances are or what tests and simulations they have done to find that out.

Finding out they haven't tested it would be far more mental.

I knew that they were supposed to be flexible, but the shocking part is the massive crack is it not?

This is mental. Only a matter of time before a calamity happens

Got my season ticket  but no wallet to put it in  that would have been a nice touch

Normally you're able to pick one up from the club shop, they stopped sending them out to everyone as a fair few just put them in their normal wallet so it was a waste of money and plastic for the club.
