It’s  to do with him being English and is an easy number in their squad, the same as Scott Carson at Man City. 
 

Bentley has played a whopping 180 minutes of football since leaving us, if he was that good another championship club would have got him as a number 1

So Bents ain't good enough  for the championship  then ffs

If the reason for cutting back on funding now is because SL believes there's a reasonable chance of selling up during this season, do we really think work will actually begin on the Arena? I think that decision would be delayed and let any prospective new owners decide if they want to go ahead with the plans as they are.

Diggers ain't in yet ,selling  with planning  is highly  desirable. 

Yeh let's just stay  in the championship  cause its nice and cosy .

Max a mid average  championship  keeper  still learning  his trade ,Bentley  top  half championship  keeper  who got a great move to the prem ,at the moment  Bents is a better keeper. 

A bit like us when we  pretended we were  buying Dwight  Gayle  no way we could  afford his wages all done to wip up excitement  

Good news for Sam ,also  good news for lansdown to call is investment  back

Everyone's  just realised  lansdown has  pulled our pants down again ,great season ticket  sells ,talk of top six don't need to sell scotty then boom all fell apart . 

Blimey  your quick off the mark

What's this got to do with Lansdown ? this is NPs team, his players, his tactics yet he keeps on getting off relatively scot free after every poor performance (of which there has been so, so many during his tenure)    

Um lansdown  runs the club final say on finances, shop in lower leagues 90% of the time that's their level,Pearson have been told to shop there he working with what he's allowed  ,tryers with little  or no quality  if we stay up lansdowns happy ,Pearson takes the flak for a bottom half finish, next manager  inherits  the same problem. Selling our young talent  also steadys  the ship for lansdown to sell up.

Were you at the game? Were we that bad? It didn't sound that way on the audio commentary - just to be clear I'm genuinely asking not saying you wrong, just all I have to go on is the Audio and a very short highlight video. 

Either way I think it's a tad early to say our season needs saving after four league games. 

 

Yes I was ,we are weak after nearly 50 yrs of watching  I'm waning  like lansdown. He's not supporting  Pearson  who obviously  running  down his contract  and who can blame him he ain't getting another, a struggle  ahead I'm afraid. 

Bringing  no one in shows Lansdown  interest  in city  as waned ,team in dire need  help ,millions banked can't tell me we can't do it wage cap he's set will see us relegated, we bring in players from league  1 with high work rate yes but low quality  for the championship  & hope our academy  will bring up gem ,already  we are hoping  a 17 Yr old kid will save our season.

He's had a good season  last see what this brings  hope he carries  on improving  .

No as the best play in the premier league and we can’t afford them. 

He's league  one at best.

New investment  brings ££££ go for it ,sitting waiting  won't happen  ,selling  all our top talent  every  year continues  who's next .lansdown  wants out that why he's steadying  the ship roll on the next era .

We all know that the next mistake he makes there will be calls for a keeper upgrade.  So I think it’s always worth pointing out those games where Max wins us points.  Probably our second best player on Friday night.   All keepers at this level will have weaknesses and make errors. If they didn’t they wouldn’t be playing at this level.  Max has had a good start to the season in my opinion.  

Apart from the cross when he flapped and didn't  have a clue  where the ball was he ain't the best that for sure .

Why would anyone want to blow the last 2/3 years of steady financial re alignment to just blow it all again. FFP and parachute payments are all stacked against us. We have to continue building slowly and hope we get lucky with building a squad organically that is good enough to compete around the play offs for a couple of years and then hope we get to a play off final and actually win it.

How so boring won't happen  ,when lansdown  goes I bloody  hope we go for it life's  so short.

Good, cause his son is useless

he did design  a lovely  kit

Decent  point two average  championship  teams  ,mid table for both plenty  of effort & commitment lack of quality from both.

Can someone sensibly explain why we would need to increase the capacity of our ground when (a) we hardly ever sell out and (b) if we did reach the promised land, match day attendances are incidental to other monies incoming

Future proofing. The demand would be major if we ever went up IMO.

Point b PL matchday revenue with profile etc can increase sharply both POTD and wider use of facilities.

I'm not saying I like this especially, some of the ticket prices are a joke as it is but it is sadly the way of it in 2023.

So why are Liverpool, Chelsea  spurs arsenal  Everton  all expanding  or new doing it if revenue  from the prem far exceeds gate revenue. CITY in the prem would sell out every  week .

Hopefully  yes he signs  be useful  when one season wonder vyner buggers off .

Bell god bless him 5 or 6 times pulled back  on his right and got tackled ,learn young man 

Poor again  at home, possession  football  don't suit us ,teams at ashton  gate will take us  off .

We just got to get ready to accept that every academy  player who comes good will be sold if the price is right,did we keep scott into the season to sell a few thousand  extra tickets .Premiership is a dream  with a one off unbelievable  season like Luton did,Pearson or any other manager  we get got there hands tied.

What a shit week
