  1. We watched a different game then because Knight was superb. Constantly pressing even in the last few minutes, moved the ball well, always asking for it. Andi was off the pace today. Offered Sykes nothing in front of him to the point where Sykes was visibly annoyed in the second half.
  2. Surely Mehmeti has got to be asking why he's not getting any pitch time
  3. One step ahead of you on the merch...
  4. So at the moment you can just apply for random tickets for every venue and hope they are England games? Surely there is a better way
  5. Ball hits the net. Wild celebrations. Downsy: The 4th official has indicated there will be 6 minutes of added time. 30 seconds later: GOAL FOR BRISTOL CITY
  6. Where's the commitment from him that he'd be answering questions on here? Frankly he gets tagged in all sorts of irrelevant posts on here, from people who seem to want to blame him for stuff from behind their keyboard. So I don't blame him. He's a top bloke and very approachable
  7. Have always found him really helpful and have contacted him recently by email and Twitter. He doesn't need to be active on a fans forum if that's not how he chooses to engage.
  8. The difference? Lots of lovely Premier League money in the most part. It's a league of haves and have nots.
  9. We should be able to give any team in our division a game. That's why we are in the same division. There's progress from where we were 2/3 years ago when we probably would have rolled over and lost 3-0 but ultimately - 0 points. Proud is a bit much.
  10. A successful business, especially one in the entertainment business should really sweat the small stuff. Because it's these seemingly insignificant things in isolation that can make or break someone's experience on the day in isolation, or put someone off coming to AG again completely. Using some of the examples given in this thread, imagine one person has come down to the game yesterday and been stuck outside the south stand in a massive queue, gone in and got an inedible pie, sat in the Dolman trying to hear the pre match team announcements but can't make it out due to the tannoy, gone to got a pint at half time but can't because the card machines have gone down, gone back to their seat and through a tinny tannoy heard Downsy announce the wrong subs. That in anybody's book is a bad experience, and probably about £35 a pop. We should be working hard to give the best possible match day experience and good progress has been made with things like the fans village and sports bar but some of these problems like the tannoy, like incorrect subs have been going on for years now. It really feels like the whole club is settled in a mid table mentality now all over the place.
  11. Remember when we used to get that safety message before each game? 'This is a test of the emergency PA system in the Evening Post Dolman Stand, when you hear this tone *annoying Bing bong*, please wait for a safety steward to direct you to the nearest exit'
  12. I genuinely dont mind if it's a template kit from a big supplier. Just some quality training wear, hoodies etc from someone reputable. Red shirt, white trim, every kits been so over engineered I just want something simple. If JL wants to tit about with the badge just use the stupid Robin without the outer circle. I thought that's why it was designed in that way.
  13. I think football fans are entitled to have a it of brand snobbery when they are spending £50 on a shirt £25 on a pair of shorts £40 on a training top etc that will all be outdated in 12 months (or less if we get a new kit supplier in February)
  14. I hope it sells well and makes the club some money but for me i think it's awful. Hate the pattern, our (JLs) obsession with dragging retro kits and images up to re-use ran its course 3 years ago and I think it's become a lazy excuse for design inspiration. Please let a paid kit designer actually design the kit next year.
  15. I don't remember any significant moaning when Bristol Sport were making our own kits. Surely if the fan base was a bunch of brand snobs we would have heard it all then too. FWIW personally I think the quality is worse than the BS stuff and at TFG levels
  16. Looked ok till I realised that City emblem is printed all over it. Best of the 3 this year but another miss for me
  17. Jumping the gun a bit here but if it is purple why have we got a third kit this season other than £££
  18. + The Easter egg debacle Comic Sans training wear Hashtags that weren't actually allowed on the shirt That god awful 125th anniversary shirt The rewards scheme/great junk giveaway OK that's a little bit wider than the shop but it's in the same commercial ballpark
  19. Bentley cost us far more points than he won us games (that's not to say he didn't have good games, he had some belters). This rhetoric that Bentley was and is a better keeper just isn't supported by stats, league position, or current amount of first team football being played.
  20. OP has it spot on. Keep it simple, reuse Mickey Bells song, then everyone can join in quickly without having to work out the words and tune to something new.
  21. Hard to use that statistic after 5 games really. We've not played any of the sides that you would expect to be there at the end of the season in the relegated prem teams. You could also say we've only picked up 1 point from a possible 6 at home averaging out at 23 points over a season - relegation numbers. I do get the overall point you are making, it's a good number of points on the board from the first 5 games and it's not all doom and gloom

    Mark Sykes

    Should be first choice in that position. Well played
  23. Despite the obvious attempt to put this news out to distract from an inactive transfer deadline day....very happy with this news, well deserved based on the last 12 months progress. He's matured into a solid, consistent, injury free CB with plenty of Championship experience. Would have cost us plenty to replace so I hope he's got the contract he deserves.
  24. Genuinely think Derbys record could be in trouble here
  25. Ignore this, too late on a Friday to get my head around figures. This is clearly losses covered by the owner
