  1. Just because Hull may have keepers who are shite, that doesnt therefore make Max any better or worse, without true competition from an experienced, commanding keeper we will not truly know his ceiling. If we truly want to kick on we will need as mentioned above, doing so will make Max a better keeper, personally Id like us to look to Europe for a keeper, get us a gert big bastard with experience.
  2. Tann has been extremely successful though, if it meant we got promoted to the prem and reached the fa cup final but played in say; yellow for a few months then I'd take that all day long. As far as football club owners go, Mr L is a huge failure.
  3. If only his biggest problem was his distribution, league one keeper; perfect for next season!
  4. The board and useless owners of this club think one thing; Luton got promoted and weve got a better stadium, superior training facilities, excellent academy, top 6 squad and now a fantastic young coach.......promotion is a given.....and therein lies the problem. Success for us as supporters of this club IMHO will only come when we have a change of owner, and the sooner that happens the better.
  5. Wintercreme not deep heat, sock ties, metal studs (sharpened), mitre footballs, communal baths ahhhh football, proper football.
  6. Wells and Conway as a partnership are fantastic IMHO, I feel like Tommy is not the same player without Wells, they are a real handful for most defences at this level on their day.
  7. Last time I went to see City at Oxford must have been late 90's early 2000 ish and to this very day it is still the most boring game I can remember The shenanigans that came before and if I remember correctly after the game were quite the opposite with a few Oxford lads getting a bit of a hiding after running up an alleyway which happened to be w dead end. Still a very nice city is Oxford but like most places in the UK it has its problems.
  8. It's already cold, I really noticed it "turn" yesterday. I'm just hoping I'm bobbing about with excitement as LM Bristol City football gets me out of my seat!!!
  9. Unfortunately he has cost us goals which has meant points, he's not good enough consistently for a championship team with aspirations to challenge at the top end of the league. Definitely an area we need to improve on in January, fat chance of that though!!!!
  10. May I jog your memory back to the 6 weeks of deliberation that brought about the unveiling of Holden....... unbelievably an internal appointment! Who really knows what is going on with these clowns in charge!
  11. On my way home after the Leeds game (I live in Leeds), I listened to Leeds supporters talk about the game and the one thing that was being said about us was how we were the only team they'd played in a long time that had turned up and had a real go and how well organised a team we are. I couldn't help myself explain about our injury crisis and lack of investment, I was met with surprise and maybe even a bit of animosity towards a regime that wouldn't back a manager of Pearson's experience, desire and proven ability to succeed, what at first struck me as an arrogant comment now seems more honest and knowledgeable "I don't think you'll get a better manager at a club like Bristol City" never more has that comment seemed so true than now.
  12. He's done a great job with the academy but he should never be able to manage the team but anything to save a penny.
  13. MY GUESS is that Luton are going to be the excuse for such a disgusting decision. Maybe SL believes we were well overdue promotion as we spent way more than them, were a bigger club, better facilities therefore NP wasn't doing well enough and he wouldn't spend anymore money chasing something unattainable with the current staff unless we were unbelievably successful and in a strong position and maybe still in a cup. Is it that a new investee has their terms of engagement and this is step one of it, if so we're stepping backwards so SL can get a bit of financial return (from his loss) which is just completely selfish if true, or is it a cost cutting episode to replace Nige with BT AGAIN, nothing would surprise me as this buffoon makes mistakes again and again and never learns, football is not for him. I'm grateful for the academy and 3 sides of a decent stadium but it's time to **** off but it's almost guaranteed he won't leave until the end of the season just before we get relegated back to where he left us!!!
  14. Its only fantastic if you compare it to The Mem, its really not that great, if the Atyeo ever gets replaced then itll be fantastic, but as we all know, thats never going to happen, a bit like us getting promoted!
  15. He's a billionaire and owner of a football club, it would have been a gesture and a way of showing his appreciation of the hundreds of miles those supporters had travelled that season, he wouldn't have been there if we hadn't been in the position we were in, that's for sure. Happy enough to lap up the praise and be part of the celebrations but not happy enough to make a tiny gesture to those very fans.
  16. So when is the press conference to announce that after long consideration and with all the fantastic work he has done at the club we are delighted to announce Brian Tinnion as new club manager! This wouldn't surprise me at all, it also wouldn't surprise me that this would be the first BT or NP would find out this news!!!
  17. I remember Crewe away in our promotion season under Cotts when SL was doing some kind of speech in a pub and I asked him if he was going to stick his card behind the bar and he quietly said to me something along the lines of "maybe when we get promoted to the prem" or words to that effect. I thought well that's how much he values our support, he couldn't spend a few hundred quid on the supporters, it left a bitter taste and reflective distain for him, it's only got more bitter as time has gone on for me.
  18. PYoung Tommy wouldn't be half the player he is without the influence of Mr Wells. I remember thinking what an unbelievable partnership they'd formed when they absolutely terrorised Blackburn away last season. I hope he's back soon. Maybe the haters will understand his worth when they see Cornick lead the attack instead.
  19. Another club that'll no doubt pass us by on their way to the prem!!!
  20. Unlike us and our poor owner who's penyless and needed to keep all the money from the Scott sale! As a Leeds resident I thought id walk at least part way home so it would be easier for my Mrs to pick me up after the traffic had died down a bit and I'd had time cool off more to the point! Anyway, I got chatting to some Leeds fans, a rare breed that were not full of a false sense of entitlement, here's the short version of what was said: first team to come and have a real go, why did you get rid of Ayling, thought your owner was a Billionaire or is that the other Bristol lot, worst keeper seen at Elland Rd for years, you won't go down, we lacked quality up top. I think they were all fair points, I pointed out that the other lots owner just has a nice watch, couldn't disagree about keeper, LJ sold Ayling...say no more!!! Tommy is quality but been out for a while, no we hopefully won't go down but without spending money on 3/4 players of good quality we won't go near the play offs this season and next season we will probably have lost our best players and an excellent manager. Whilst I expect nothing less than a loss today, I didn't think that the gap between the two teams was so big, I also heard a rumour that made me more despondent than ever, rumours are just that though. Well fought City, unfortunately I see another season of championship football again next season, could be worse, we could be........
  21. I'm there and it really was shocking keeping as was the keeping from the shot that led to the goal. Chorus of dodgy keeper from Leeds fans.
  22. Anyone have a spare ticket for tomorrow please . I live in Leeds so can't miss this one.
