Bristol Rob

Based on recent games, he is lacking one critical skills most keepers have.

When was the last time you saw him pick the ball up out of his own net?

Narrowly below Wycombe on GD as it stands, a wonderful tribute to that wonderfully sunny May afternoon, a decade ago next month

They can resolve that with legal action.

Ah, Claire Young. You can tell we're in a GE year. 

Surely there won't be the required interest in this anyway given Yate is full of gasheads, gypsies, and shops that still have pick n mix? 

What have you got against pick n mix?

Joey refusing to tell the Fewers anything about the new owners until the pay stops!

Are any of the players out on loan this season likely to be in contention next season?

Trouble on the metro too. Apparently a Bristol City fan has pulled the emergency stop on the metro. We have started again and now waiting at a station for 30 mins for the Police

That would never happen in Bristol.........

#NoNeedToMoveToThePoliticsForum.

A much higher number (than usual) sounds of emergency vehicles on Gloucester Road post-match.

I hope the Fewers aren't out lowering local house prices with antics.

If that's a concourse, I've got one under my stairs 

This is their new plan - rather than developing academy players, they're going to try and keep boy-wizards.

What happened to Chris Martin, their goal hero?

8 cautions issued today.

And they were all yellow.

Ex Gas Aaron Collins, who Barton described as having a £4million starting price, who eventually left for £750,000...

 

...Scores for Bolton against them

They have just conceded another.

A pen 8mins in to injury time.

So, will the hordes of travelling Trotters be impressed by their accommodation tomorrow. A step up from what they`re used to I`ll be bound.

The concourse in particular will have them green with envy I expect.

Christ. I forgotten about that tomorrow.

Means I have to get up and move the car back 4 feet so I can limit the parking in BS7.

Doesn't do a lot, but a mild inconvenience is the least I expect of myself.

Winning five in a row will mean we’ve had an amazing end to the season so would mean a lot going into next season 

Been a while since we last did that (I would guess, League One promotion maybe?).

Can anyone remember a local indie band that played the local venues i.e Fleece and Ferkin circa 2010ish? Bit of a Liam Gallagher style lead singer, can't remember their name and it's annoying me.

Anything else you can offer to the description - The style you mention was pretty much EVERYONE at the time!

To be fair, at least it shows they're taking their obligations to equine more seriously than they have done in the past.

It's more difficult to punch a horse if it is hiding in a little horsey caravan. 

Next season will see a close battle between Craig David and that Fatman fella.

Tommy only makes it by 1 day. Birthday 6 August, first game 5 August.

Should just do 'players born after 2001' - and raise that by a year each season.

Roberts - Born May 2002

Bell - Born May 2002

Conway - Born August 2002.

I appreciate we may view Roberts and Bell as young players but @shahanshahan explained the criteria earlier in the thread and it’s not a long thread to have had to read through before asking a question he’s already answered…

To be fair, the young player category was described as a 'guidance' in terms of the cut off ages, can't be beyond the observational skills of the people setting this up to think... 'maybe we should add another 12 months to the criteria, give fans a genuine choice as at the moment there is almost a winner by default'.

Trying to think of a benefit of having Manning as the gaffer, and an obvious one could be using his former Hammers connections to bring in some young ones for a season loan?

Maybe the next Declan Rice, or going back a decade or two - the next Joe Cole?  It would be a big boast for the squad for next season.  I'm still waiting for us to bring in our next Tammy and a West Ham player would go down a treat.

My view is increasingly that loans aren't about a managers previous connections, but more about loan fees, wage contribution and then training facilities; medical facilities and style of play.

So….moved house in Nov and with no outdoor cooking space the beast and the Kettle over wintered in the garage. 
 

This lady’s and gentlemen turned out to be a mistake.  A thick carpet of mold awaited me as I opened them.  This was the worst I’ve ever seen it, so bad not even burning it off worked first time round - so I’m having to season the smoker for a 2nd time today, and hopefully now they’re back outdoors this won’t happen again. 
 

I have plans for this year, and those plans are sausage.  I’ve got all the bits to make my own hot links now, they’ll go nicely with smoked brisket.  
 

Fish might be a struggle this year.  I used to go in the fantastic fishmongers in Kingswood, but that’s now an hours trip each way , and I don’t think there’s one near by.  While Sardines are still king of the grill (especially as a starter) that place also sold Swordfish steaks which are perfect for grilling.

Link?

The City ad was shown on some cable TV channel. Might have been Quest.

Saw the TV commercial earlier.

You'd get more enthusiasm in an ad for Dignitas.

Correct - it's effectively an in-house agency and similar models have been employed elsewhere, including Nationwide.

They also do work with external clients - including NE Applicances, Oxford United, Saracens, Wasps, Team Bath, Girlactico and CK Dental.

Jesus. Nailsea Electrical (who also sell kitchens - before anyone points out the obvious) did a kitchen design for me.

Even though the design was free, it was THAT SHIT I got proper eggy when he tried to sell me a kitchen and I suggested that if the quality of design was a reflection of the quality of their work, it would be best to leave it. And Fever Pitch work with them... hmm...

I imagine all the contracts between City and Fever Pitch are properly negotiated at arms length and the Board do market research to make sure they're getting the best value for money...right?

When Alan Sugar and El Tel took over Spurs, Sugar was very surprised when he found out that the club were renting a dance floor for one of the function rooms from a night club Venables owned.

But I am sure Bristol Sport put EVERYTHING out to tender.

Those t-shirts will look mint with my new daps.

Thanks to the magic of the Internet, I now know that Zachary George Onyego Vyner is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for Bristol City.
