Get off Davefevs back some of you. The guy is passionate about his football club and is feeling a tad fed up with things as they are progressing as are a lot of us.

Has an opinion as we all do.

I agree with you and FWIW I have a generally positive response to his posts but you and I both know that if practically anyone else had posted such a low hanging clickbait title then they'd be getting a ton of abuse for it, way more than anything said to Dave here.

I listened back today, and I didn’t think it was as bad as it appeared yesterday evening.  I read the press interview earlier, hadn’t seen it til then.

Assuming it’s the truth, then it’s a bit too honest…but that is Nige.  I’d prefer he’d chosen better words to describe the situation.

Assuming it is the truth, then you can see why he’s picked King…although there were other options.

Not Nige’s finest interview by any stretch though, but boy, there ain’t arf some piling in on the back of it.

Not half as much as there would've been if it had been a Holden or Johnson interview. 

Imagine a last four of England, Croatia, Netherlands and Morocco

That might be sensible but there will always be examples of where this will still be flouted / flawed.

But it would be much less flawed than the absolute shithousery of timewasting that goes on now. 

Stopping the clock works pretty well in rugby. 

If anyone wants these, you are welcome to them. Used, colour a bit faded. 6-12months.

**** me. Let’s hope “the ladies” choose better headwear……

Post like this say far more about you than they ever could about Steve Lansdown.

I’m just offering up an opinion, no need to be rude / insulting about it is there?

Isn't it pretty insulting to be suggesting "back-handers" to the council?

Any right backs ready to be promoted from the youth team?

That photo is May 8th 1963.That’s me in the photo playing for Ashton Park against Bristol Technical school in the Woodcock Shield Final.It had rained all day and the pitch was waterlogged.Anyway it was a 0-0 draw and the trophy was shared.

You were part of a side that kept a clean sheet? 

Can you bring your boots Saturday?

I am also washing Major Isewater's hair. 

Absolutely no traffic along the portway. Strange!

Hes dropping down to sort out our penalty issues.

He's going to take it if we're awarded one?

So what happened with Semenyo? Anyone see?

I know I'll no doubt get some flak for this but they were both League 1 players and wouldn't get in our team.

Not taking anything away from them as they were quality for us at the time of course.

I think they would have both been able to perform at a higher level in the right side. I actually think they both would have fit into our current set up well, at their respective peaks.

The Times today shows us both in 11th and 17th place in a 25 team league table.

In a lot of ways that seems like a fairly accurate assessment of our season. 

I don't know who to choose, but this list indicates our problems have been at the other end of the pitch for years.

Which i suppose we knew already. 

Naismith not put a foot wrong all half

If I went to the Savoy for a burger I'd expect to pay more than at McDonald's 

You'd also expect quality to match the price though, wouldn't you.

As much as I enjoy a dig at the ref, neither him or his assistant are going to see that. VAR might have helped if they’d had this angle, the Robins TV angles were really inconclusive.

The assistant, I agree, but the referee really should be in a position to see that. 

If Vyner had played like Naismith did today OTIB would have already exploded.

Semenyo is in his kit warming up on the pitch

Can he play centre half?

What on Earth is going on with the M32?

Don't know for sure but saw this. I don't have twitter so I can't elaborate I'm afraid.

Seems like travel chaos across Bristol. 

75 crawling along. Bus full. Stuck in Horfield of all places.
