  1. League 5 and now Championship 2........FFS! They just can't help themselves
  2. Yup - Helen Chamberlain in her prime made Soccer AM the must watch show of the week. Lovejoy was brill I just reckon Helen got fed up with being there for so long, it did kinda show some weeks. But on her day she made it probably the best footy show of all time. Great performer, with good knowledge and razor sharp banter. Top Tekkers!
  3. Fact of the day. When I lived in Bermuda, the aquarium was touted as a tourist attraction. Imagine my surprise (and assorted cruise liner passengers) to discover it didn't contain a single fish whatsoever. A few paintings and a hole in the floor. You had to look in the hole to see the fish. Sadly the tide was out so all that was there was a bit of rock. I went back home, wandered down to the tiny beach (through the islands hard waste dump) which we had appropriated, and took our newly acquired catamaran out. I say newly acquired - it had been moored somewhere and a storm dumped it up into the Palm trees on the 20m long beach. It sat there for a year or more until we got it down. It's probably still tied to the palm tree where we left it when our contracts finished. Funny old place is Bermuda. The do like our Shaun though. He coaches over there now and again.
  4. It's all in my initial posting. And has been pointed out multiple times by more than one person. Oh yeah - I forgot the multi-purpose indoor 6000 seater, 8,000 standing convention centre as well. What would that be worth? Honestly MRR - you are one of the brighter posters on here, and you understand the point perfectly well. To pretend otherwise does you a disservice.
  5. I know that, we all know that - it's public record - but 2 of the front runners will be hamstrung if fiscal limitations are imposed on overseas ownership, and transfer of funds. Unless you are saying solely UK interests in new ownership are on the horizon now? Is that what you are saying?
  6. I wouldn't be too sure of that. One of the potential parties has come a bit of a cropper. Lets just say the Ukraine situation isn't helping matters, re: financial freedom of funds movement.
  7. Yet another one who cannot distinguish between the 225,000,000 quid spent on "Bristol City" over 20+ years, and the 750,000,000 quid the Lansdowns will make when they sell the ground, land, offices and shops. Oh and the hotels, and apartments and houses on the ex-brownland site.... The Lansdown family will walk away from their football adventure with a huge profit made on the land at AG and AV. Do you realise that SL is the 998th richest man on Planet Earth? Or to put it simply - he makes more in investment income in 6 months than he has spent on all the Bristol sport entities on 20 yrs. For him its the equivalent of us finding a 50p coin down the back of the sofa! He's made more 'supplying clean water' to a tiny bunch of people in Botswana (via "finding" precious gemstone deposits whilst "searching" for this easy-to-find-water) than he has spent on this sports hobby of his. I don't know how many times people have to repeat - we are paying rent to Lansdown to play in a stadium we used to own, and when all is sold (which has come a huge cropper just recently btw) SL will walk away quids in.
  8. Perhaps they were born on Feb 29th?
  9. I suspect Simpson was used to give NP an 'insiders view' of the dressing room - report back to see who the 'wrong 'uns' were, so NP had more of a clue who he was working with.
  10. Could he recall Moore and push Vyner to midfield? Its not as if our defence could conceed many more goals anyway!
  11. Or just a ban for multiple accounts. The person is clearly not well - it may be in EVERYONES interest if she stepped away for a bit.
  12. Thousands of gas behind the goal. Thats what they do. Can't see these 1000 Newcastle fans...
  13. Your agenda won't get hidden just because you have transitioned from 'RalphMilnesleftfoot' You have been anti-Pearson since he signed Simpson, which triggered something about your personal life - and you have viewed Pearson through that prism ever since. If he upsets you that much - take a break from City. Changing your username and carrying on with the same guff makes you seem very petty and vindictive.
  14. Its top half isn't too flash either.
  15. Yup. Unless you have an unnatural interest in churches or go AFL mad - there is zero to do in Adelaide. And it can get damn hot in Summer - 40c+ for days on end.
  16. Indeed, and as widely suspected by the realists on here: "Do the clubs know? Very often, yes. Pre-season and indeed post-season tours are particularly fertile breeding grounds for these hook-ups. Sometimes, with two big clubs in the same part of the world at the same time, they can involve players from more than one team. In terms of coaches, managers and staff, they have been known simply to look the other way."
  17. It would filter up. Why - so the club are already ahead of the curve when the shit hits the fan. Did Man Utd seem shocked and dismayed and in damage control or did they have a presser all ready to go within hours?
  18. I honestly don't know mate - someone sent me a text.
  19. Are you honestly suggesting that inside a team dressing room everyone didn't have some idea about everyone else? Most people know a wrong 'un. So you think that on a group night out, other WAGS and players didn't see bruises on Harriet and thought 'I bet Masons put one on her'. This wasn't a one off mate - do it once and they do it again. Of course people at Man Utd knew EXACTLY what kind of POS Greenwood was.
