Played for Raleigh in 86, Dave lea was manager, am I right in thinking grantley went on to captain bath city?

Dave Lea was my manager also . Window cleaner ?

Was quite happy to see the lad come home . A little gutted it isn’t going to happen . Not sure where he would’ve fitted in , not my job, it seemed nailed on according to the Post … should’ve know better

Cryptic Tinman?

Bryan and / or Dickie and / or McCrorie

Can we have all three

Always reasons why the football ain’t great . I wasn’t massively impressed with some of what Nigel’s team were producing ….it was pretty damn bad but I had to give it a chance and be a realist . Circumstances

Personally, some of the worst football I ever witnessed, that’s in the 45 years of watching City. 

I wouldn’t disagree with you , the end was hard watch and I was really surprised he wasn’t sacked earlier.

5th is a decent job. 4th is a good job. 3rd is very good.  2nd would be freedom of the city.  He will have to finish 4th next season to keep his job I reckon and his best player will be leaving this summer so got his work cut out a little bit.  

Work to be done then .  Hard to break the old firm stranglehold in that league . Just watched Ross v Patrick which was very entertaining, we’d give em both a good go 

Some of the best football I’ve witnessed in my time watching Bristol City . He’s a decent enough guy and a tidy manager . I’m a little surprised how well he’s done at Hibs , don’t know Scottish football that well so can’t say if they finished where they should’ve 

Wow what a talent . Pretty sure you make a few quids out of that !

Fantastic game and gonna go to pens me think  

Could never back a foreign team against an English side . Bristol city till I die !

this is proper tragic, lot of this creeping into the game

I mean this, just think it looks a bit naff that's all. Hardly the end of the world anyway.

Truly horrendous.  What was they thinking . Baffles me . 

Always thought he got a rough deal from the press . Had a good spell playing at Everton . Was an ok player . Surely someone will take a punt on him  at what level I’m not sure  

Good luck to em . Gonna b a tough season. 

I’ve been on and redeemed my points . It left with 15 points . Well happy with the Father’s Day card , dog collar, lunch box and gift voucher 

Training pitches been done for a couple of weeks now 

Is today the last day to redeem?

Two words: Gus Ceaser. There's a paragraph or two from Nick Hornby in Fever Pitch about how he thinks Gus made the England u21s.

Fair point .

No, I see him heading back to France. No ITK just how I see it.  As you say a chance taken that doesn’t seem to have worked out. Although he can’t be any mug to be in the France u21s.

I’m thinking he must have a little bit about him as u z .  Think NP will be sorting out someone to push Max . Thought the Barnsley keeper looked tidy as did their skipper .

I’m not sure he’s doing that well in France, he’s been dropped by Valenciennes, not even making the bench!

Do u see him pushing next season, personally I think we took a chance and it hasn’t worked out , injuries and homesick . He can’t be terrible to be representing his country at any level . 

It’s a shame we haven’t made it to the Prem, many reasons for it . I think things are in place more now than at any other time in our history . To have a chance of being involved at the business end of the season isn’t that far away. 

Pretty much guess work at the moment . I saw Mr Wells up the golf club and he thinks we can make playoffs !

It’s always the way….probably get more bets on them that they do on us, and bookies are gonna offer less attractive odds for them than they will for us.

Undoubtedly Ipswich fans are doing “back early as the price will be lower going forwards” and they have a big fan base plus history.

 

I fancy em to do quite well this season and carry on from last season .
