I don’t want (and haven’t seen any comments anywhere wanting) Manning out now, but I think it’s fair to offer criticism in places given what we’ve witnessed in a 4 game spell.
But, to answer your final point Pearson took over a dumpster fire of a situation. A poor side who couldn’t buy a win & looked like a relegation team at the end under Holden. The club needed drastic change & thankfully got it under Pearsons stewardship.
Manning inherited a team that 8 days before Pearson was sacked were 8th in the league just 1 point off the playoffs. He’s got a team that could compete in the division and was in no danger of being dragged into a relegation battle. Therefore he won’t get the same patience Pearson got because everything is set up for the club to kick on & he’s been bigged up as the missing ingredient required to enable us to progress.

Had to call the club in the week to chase my son’s physical season ticket. I was about 40th, or something stupid, in the queue but the query was dealt with swiftly and a matchday ticket emailed to me immediately, as the club woefully underestimated how many people would want physical cards.
Those guys must’ve been absolutely run off their feet these last few weeks so just wanted to put my thanks to them all on the record, it can’t be easy taking the flak for City’s many shortcomings so fair play to them all.

Plus, he’s sorted for the Rugby in September too

I have got my PNE season ticket image downloaded into my apple wallet.
By the sounds of things if I am reading the above posts we have to download a new ticket image for each game ! Great if you have a Wi-Fi connection.
If you forget to do it before arriving at the ground I can see loads of us trying to download within the useless non Wi-Fi at Ashton Gate. So hopefully the club has upgraded this to enable this to happen.
Last season on occasions last season due to the amount of use within the stadium you couldn’t even send a text messageIf you already have the ST in your Apple wallet then all you need to do is ensure that you have automatic updates turned on in the wallet settings. Approx 2 days before the upcoming game the ST will update to show the forthcoming fixture & it will replace the previous game.
Therefore none of your concerns are applicable. You don’t need to update anything personally, you don’t download anything yourself match by match and no Wi-Fi or 5G / 4G signal is needed on the day / at the turnstile.

Incredible, ask most people in the street who they were and they wouldn’t have a clue! … certainly not my cup of tea
I think that you are well out of touch on this one. The ‘kids’ absolutely love this band.
The whole tour sold out in minutes, 8 months in advance. That’s hundreds of thousands of tickets at circa £80 a pop. Tens of thousands locked out of the online ticket sales and resale tickets at hundreds of pounds above face value.
It’s not my cup of tea either but there’s no denying the level this band is at.
I’ll be going as I’m taking my daughter & friends. Should be an interesting gig I think.

With respect, you are talking absolute garbage.
Initial allocation for any away game is to Season Ticket holders only. I believe you have stated you are in that category so I do not think I have to explain why this is so to you.
The current system DOES NOT allow anyone to buy 'up to 10 tickets per season ticket'. The only way that this can happen is if one person is buying OTHER SEASON TICKET HOLDERS tickets on their behalf, through linking accounts. To put it simply, it would be no different if those 10 ST holders did it online themselves.
The next category allowed to buy are Members. I believe this is what you mean by the Bristol Sport online accounts. I can assure you that any Member CANNOT 'mop up tickets in seconds'. People can only buy what they are entitled to buy
Please can you provide proof that these practices are going on
Isn’t your third paragraph the flaw in the current system that the original poster is complaining about?
If I understand your explanation correctly, one person could have 9 mates season tickets linked to their online account and could use that to buy 10 tickets in total.
Now, if not all 9 mates intend to go to that particular away game the person who has made the purchase has additional tickets that they can then give/sell to non STH friends.
I suppose that’s what the OP means by hoovering up tickets.

I doubt very much that anyone is desperate for us to lose.
However, there would be plenty of dissenting voices if Pearson had gone W1 D2 L3 over the last 6 games. Why should Manning be above any criticism?
