I remember that match, one of three, perhaps four, I recall, where an individual player has destroyed us at Ashton Gate.

In addition, there was the Stan Collymore show for Forest and the John Salako show for Swansea.

Just behind, was the Southend game where their striker, Freddy Eastwood, tore us apart, not forgetting the Millwall striking duo of Sheringham and Cascarino.

 

If I’m correct, didn’t Gabbiadini (sp) also tear us apart? But TBF the most comprehensive and powerful demolition I think I’ve ever seen at AG was Collymore  

No matter how bad SOD or the football was, no one - and I mean no one - will ever surpass my well founded hatred for Pulis. There. I’ve said it.

No disrespect to Bournemouth but imagine playing home games at the Vitality stadium with those low attendances.

Yeah but every other week you're plying your trade at Anfield, Old Trafford, Maine Road, Highbury etc.

We of course even see the “loan with obligation to buy” as a way of putting off the first payment.

Along with, of course, the oft quoted "pay as you play" deals . . .

Gotta be honeset, I'm more worried about the keeper options than the left back ones.

Not convinced that we've any strength, depth or 'obvious number one' in the squad.

If Max gets injured we could try drop-backs. 

Yet this was he bloke who was in charge of a JET-inspired Doncaster that tore us a new one at AG

I was really looking forward to League Two if he’d stayed in charge.

I remember a midweek home game against, I think, Shrewsbury where we were utterly, utterly, rubbish and ended up drawing 1-1 by the skin of our teeth. Think Nickey Shorey played for us and it was abundantly clear his legs had gone. We were spiralling out of control & relegation was almost a foregone conclusion had SOD stayed. 

But, as the OP correctly says, we cleared the decks a bit and brought in JET, Pack & Fielding and laid the foundations for the renaissance.

H is a smart lad! 

He gets it from ‘er indoors

Just watching the latest video from Austria where a silly amount of different merch is being worn. A great little video into Day 3 but my 10 year old lad did suggest that they’re wearing loads of different stuff to auction off before the start of the season? 

La Lola in St Nick’s is hard to beat. Currently sat in having the excellent seafood paella

Yuk

Quite a few familiar faces but great to see Walshy looking good. 

A Great mate of mine is a Millwall fan, he’s gutted. RIP Sir John.

Just seen him in a supermarket in Bedminster topping up on protein puddings, so there we go. 

And I’ve just seen him in sainsburys! (True)

Bolasie, we paid just £20k for him.

Sold him to Palace for £350k, the sell on then netted us £5m, at the time one of the biggest fees we’d received for someone who was no longer our player.

I don’t think anyone saw that coming. Absolutely staggering.

he leader of Reading Borough Council has now written to Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer to raise his concerns.

Presumably to let her know that Reading seem to be run by a load of sharks. Good luck to them, you reap what you sow.

Wasn’t it filmed at Merrywood?

It was, but some of the continuity was a bit suspect, you’d see Simon riding along the Suspension Bridge then turn left into bloody Newquay Rd! Also: a donkey in every episode.
