Probably won’t be popular for saying it but with the signings of players like George Fiend, Jack Hunt and Harvey Vale and with the likes of Scott Sinclair already onboard I think that unfortunately Rovers could do well this season. The team certainly looks a lot stronger than this time last year.

Fantastic team.. if it was 2010.

Welcome to Bristol Jack...Ashton Gate looks a lot better from a long distance, doesn't it?

Yes, you can actually see Ashton Gate in the distance. I'm not sure anyone can see your crumbling, 3 standed cesspit a few meters away.

As midfielders go, nowhere near!

I can guarantee any midfielder you are thinking of would of put more effort then Lansbury 

Surely has to be in the conversation as one of the worst players xi to ever play for us.

A lot of people on here easily upset… personally I think that is a great video on there part to announce the signing.

Also think they will compete well this season. Obviously hope not but come on. Who isn’t missing a proper league derby game?!

Barton’s woman bashers? No thanks. They can stay exactly where they belong in the slums of nothingness

Loving the bench reactions 

Me too. Showing everyone really cares 

Cornick has to play every game now just for the long throws!!

Another big fee for a big player for us today. That makes 3 in one window.
 

Are they still trying to break their £300k transfer record 453 years later?

All their transfer budget is going on keeping their manager and players out of prison. 

Own up. Who wrote this on Knights Wiki page

Aston Villa , Wolves and others were all very mindful of FFP the year they went up, weren’t they ? If we are always happy playing second fiddle , fine. Personally after supporting the club since 1966 I would like to actually win something.With a player like Scott, we stand a better chance of doing that.

Over to the accountants

It’s the football food chain, good player for small club leaves for big club. Been like this since day dot. We’ve taken best players off of small clubs, Matty Taylor, Aden flint etc. it’s just the way it is 

Any decent young players we can nab from them on the cheap?

All gone a bit quiet with this transfer. Thought ball would be rolling a bit more after Ipswich has gone in for Taylor.

Fighting like rats in a sack over on slagchat.

Things you love to see.

Rats to a sinking, rudderless, Morale-less ship.

What a horribly disgusting immoral bankrupt football club. The club and the fans deserve all the abuse they are currently getting from all sides of the country. Shameful institution. 

People scoffing the Europa League conference, the only realistic trophy anyone outside of the top 6 can win. Look at the scenes of the West Ham fans at the moment who wouldn't want that

Seriously can we stop with the whole roof thing? We've been doing it for 5 summers now, really it just shows how unimaginative the media department are if they can't come with something new in 4 years. Or they're just that lazy which is also evidenced by how the media department totally gave up on putting any effort into the academy. 

Rough day at work pal?

Wherever Bryan ends up, it sure as shit wont be Cardiff! They won’t be signing anyone from this division, maybe not even the league below. A dross of random crap from europe/turkey is where they will be shopping.

Who the hell is their new manager too. That club seems to be in disarray and it's wonderful. 

Positive was he was moving when he was being stretchered off. Hopefully just a reaction to the heat 

What’s happened to our mate lockyer 

Very strange game. Don’t want much bundesliga but where was the urgency in the stands too? It felt like a dead rubber game. 

This is exactly how I expect Bristol city to play if we needed to win on the final day to get promotion

If you think that NP will play Joe B or anyone for that matter because of “his name”, I think you are very much mistaken.

JB will be a versatile member of the squad who could play in a number of positions, just as he did when he was with us before.

I will be delighted if and when this is finally confirmed - for me, it’s a “statement of intent” signing which will make our squad much stronger.

 

I hope so. I know Bryan is a great pro, fantastic lad and will be great with everyone at the club. I trust Pearson completely with this signing. 

Eh. I see both sides to this being a positive and a slightly negative signing. Positive he is experienced, great role model, he can also be a tutor and a mentor for a lot of the younger players. He knows the area, the club and that's important too. 

Negatives is he potentially doesn't fit our new recruitment policy, and I feel like he plays in positions we don't need to strengthen (although I understand peoples points of rotation). I am such a massive fan of Cam Pring and I believe he can be our next player to play in the premiership. I wouldn't want his development stifled because we feel like we have to play Bryan. Also Bryan is not our answer to our sometimes weak midfield, although again he can do a "job" in there if necessary I've already seen people put him in our midfield in our predicted starting 11 for next season on twitter. He isn't a central midfielder. 

I'm just not sure where i would like him in our team and I'm a little concerned his name will get him in the starting 11.
