The trouble with taking a limited set of statistics is you do not give the full picture. Sure Coughlan might have “play off” form, but that masks just how badly your club is being run.

If you look at England managers win percentages, Alf Ramsey is third. Behind Fabio Capello in second and Sam Allardyce.

It would ignore reality to take those stats and pretend that Big Sam is the greatest England manager of all time. Just as it ignores reality to argue that Couglan is a play off manager.

Just seen an ex Gas player defending R Kelly on  Twitter. Do they have no shame, ex Rovers AND a sexual abuse sympathiser

Which is more shameful?

Got to be a few piss takes with this.

With the size of their crowd there can’t be too many suspects.

The great thing about this game is that as a chance for Sunderland to reach Wembley whatever the result it’ll feature prominently on season 2 of “Sunderland til I die” on Netflix and the gas will be shown worldwide as the tinpot outfit they are.

Now imagine SAFC get 3 or 4 up in the second half. Forever in posterity, from Kansas to Kuala Luampa the gas fans will be seen crying.

Warms the cockles.

It’d be terrible to support a team that features on that documentary ****ing up.... 

What do the 15ers and the Philadelphia Eagles have in common?

Ya know, a couple of weeks back, I was in a bar in Palawan, Philippines when I heard a Bristol accent.. It was a guy, probably in his early 50s, sleazily chatting up the young girls around him, talking absolute nonsense and just being generally creepy. I thought to myself, I bet he's a sag, acting like that.

Sure enough, I struck up a conversation with him and asked him red or blue. He was indeed one of the blue few! I guess he was nice enough in the end, but it's funny how they are so easy to clock based on how they behave in general!
 

I bet he was telling the young girls all about the 40,000 crowds they get at the Mem every week.

And I bet the young girls were thinking “piss off grandad, even we know your average home crowd is roughly the same as the population of Frampton Cotterell”

It's a bit like new Dr Who, it looks good and people seem to like it but having grown up with the originals, for better or worse,  it's just not the same.

They've had to make him more PC and 'real' but in doing so it just looks like they copied Jason Bourne.

Casino Royal probably the pick of the Craig movies for me.

More PC?  Not even Roger Moore followed a sexual assault victim into the shower!

The forum is definitely the font of all knowledge. I’ve lived in Bristol all my life, but had never heard of Banjo Island until the recent posts. Have I missed anything?

It's a bit like Turbo Island but without any of the redeeming features.

Ye saw the saggies were gloating on how much the Sunderland fans loved them ..Course they did ,it was a weekend on the piss knowing full well that an easy 3 pts on offer .What it it with the fewers that they need to be loved so much ,was the same when the played Chelsea wasnt it . Desperate tossers.

Exactly. It’d be like us playing Gateshead* and their fans asking us if we prefer them to Newcastle/Sunderland. Of course we would! Gateshead are no threat and everyone loves the underdog.

*no offence meant to Gateshead, I’m sure they are not stadium stealing, inbred, needy horse punchers.

Faithful and true who could hardly muster a song, a broken scoreboard, a shite team, and the comfort of watching from a tent....A reality check I see....

You’d have thought the Sunderland fans would have noticed the Championship ready sprinklers. 

To be fair they do fit that description, I find it surprising and astonishing that they still exist.

The highest the Sags have EVER finished is 6th in the second tier. Which they managed in 1956 and 1959.

So it’s rather amusing that they are laughing at us being in a position that they haven’t EVER bettered and haven’t even equalled for 60 years.

Taken from Asschat......

Yep sorry - sh** out and their unbeaten run over. Expect their chavs to cause trouble outside now
Middlesbrough win in championship as well so sh** down to 6th

How’s they lemons Saggies? Bitter much?? Down to 6th now lads, don’t know about you lot but I’m truly gutted how we’ve dropped to as low as 6th. 

Johnson Out. FTG

He’s right, we are only the 26th best club in England and Wales at the moment.

Whereas his club are coming for us. Any day now. I’m sure they are coming. Right there look, they are coming. #ticktock

God Delusion - the 15ers think they are so so special that God will come down to Earth to save them.

If it was Henbury Gas he’d have claimed to have faught at the Battle of Waterloo.

Clever wasn’t he

To be fair to him he is probably smarter than 99% of Sags. 

Waterloo was the final conflict of the English civil war?

lockout  on tipping point apparently ,thinks his team are on the up 

My toddler has a sickness bug and so I’m home with Tipping Point on in the background. Cleaning up puke from the carpet is more entertaining, especially when a 15er is talking about the “dark days in the conference”

So if Bristol sport only bought Taylor to stop them getting promoted and Went to meetings to stop the UWE stadium happening and they have in actual fact got money because Hamer said it wasn’t an issue....what’s the excuse for not completing the training ground?

Reading some of his tweets he's a proper bitter one.  See the one about how we took 8k to Man City but can't fill our own ground.  Classic Sag Attendance Virus. 

I am so embarrassed that we took more on an away trip than they manage to get for their home games.

Fair play to them though good to see them travelling in numbers.

To be fair they were all out tobogganing. 

Are they still saying “tick tock”? 

They are so similar that it is impossible to tell them apart.

After reading that I couldn’t resist.

Every image result was a picture of Henbury Gas.
