The Dolman Pragmatist

Did he really get a touch for the fourth goal at Mansfield though? That’s what I’ve always wanted to know…

...and we beat Hull 8-1…

Not the best viewer experience, one corner completely out of view thanks to the railings of the gantry, and the Pompey goal in total shade so can’t see any City attacking action within the six yard box. ?

Good player for us. Not sure why you’re taking the p***.

The likelihood that everyone will rate every member of a squad is pretty low, I would have thought, but in my experience when a player has been largely unrated by a good number of fans it’s usually because they’ve - ahem - not been very good. For the record, I want City to succeed and I want every player to play their part, but the fact is that, as I think everyone can see (including yourself, I would expect), Cornick has been hugely disappointing so far. No one is saying he doesn’t have any technique or spirit, but so far he has largely failed to deliver. I hope he finds his mojo and transforms into the player we need, and I admire your optimism, but at some point he has to start delivering at the level we need and so far it simply ain’t happening.

Agreed. My father in law is a Baggie, and he has hated the past couple of seasons, and seems to feel more depressed than ever about their prospects this season.

Paradise Lost … The Herd

To this day, our then roadie claims to have instantly spotted his star potential ?

A 16 year old Roland Orzabal (later of Tears For Fears) supported my band once at a pub which is now The Cork in Westgate Buildings in Bath. Does that count?

I’ll never forget his goals against Liverpool in 1977. Cometh the hour…

Anyone know the starting line-up for the Bath City game?

I’ve just driven home in Bath and passed a couple of flash floods…

Anyone know of any decent recent stuff that: isn’t in a relentless flat 4/4 time occasionally strays into a minor key has a chord sequence that involves more than two chords, preferably with the odd 7th chucked in has a tune that could stand on its own Serious question, as what I hear day to day frequently depresses the hell out of me…

Thought you were talking about Wilson there for a moment … ?

Art for Art’s Sake … 10CC

You’re not one for the rehabilitation of offenders then? I think a number of City players have had criminaI convictions over the years, some involving assault. Would you have advocated the sacking of Bradley Orr and Steve Brooker?

Am I one of the few who is really rather relieved by this? Apart from the fact that he’s 29 and has done very little since that playoff final, I’m very happy with Cam Pring who I think has the potential to be a better player than Joe Bryan.

I wouldn’t even beieve the football results in the Daily Mail.

Oh I don’t know. Robins can be aggressive little b*ggers.

…and of course he tells the ‘Remember the Alamo’ joke in The Slaughtered Lamb pub in An American Werewolf in London.

Brian Glover the geezer trying to spoil their day. When he died, the Guardian obituary said he died of a Brian Tumour...

Mine’s been taken.

I hope he gets picked. It would be a Nice surprise for him… Frankly, I don’t believe you.

Harry’s Game … Clannad

Relative to the size and prosperity of the city, I would think that was very likely to be true.
