Engvall’s Splinter

Pray for another. 

Whilst still not getting the W that we all crave, this is a continued step in the right direction. Was always going to take some time (when operating on limited funds) to turn last seasons juggernaut around. Gradually players confidence / mental strength are returning. There was always going to be bumps. Bumps this time though with a seasoned experience manager. We are turning into a dogged outfit, disciplined out of possession and actually look like a team. Another point gained for me. Preston are a tricky undervalued Championship outfit.

So what’s the view on changing our team to counteract the opposition? Seem to remember previous managers getting a fair bit of stick because of that. COYR 

Has this been confirmed? I reckon Baker at LB. 

Would have started Simpson. Not a huge fan of him but really don’t like Vyner as a fullback.

He didn’t say they could get promotion, he said they will get promotion, and then added that he guaranteed it.

Pretty sure he guaranteed they wouldn’t go down last season. 
 

Suggest you tap out of that betting app, Joey. 

The thing is the gas fans are so dopey they’ll continue to lap up the comments of how fantastic their fan base is, travelling support, potential of the club, big fish etc - in turn giving Barton more time.

Bristol city are becoming a bit of a joke we are a club in crisis and Pearson appears to have improved nothing

Was never going to be the flick of a switch. 

Pitman a good signing for them. Mental we cast him off about 5+ years ago.

Good on you, but I will always try and stand by people who refuse to comply. Its their choice and for what ever reason they don't comply quite frankly its no ones business... But the blackmail and coercion is disgusting.

Weird. You support people who refuse to comply just for the sake of it, even if it doesn’t marry with what you support?

Saver alert.............Skybet are offering 4/1 about them staying up, so if (like me) you are into insurance bets this seems very good.

As soon as I place my (sizable) bet, their fate is sealed !

It maybe dirty money if it comes in but I’ll have some of this. Compensation fund.

Barton’s interview after the game.  

What a character.

Waelly will soon be requesting Lansdown puts another gentlemen’s agreement in place that we can’t sell players to Rovers relegation rivals.

Wanna coward away dont go but you habe no right to bubble wrap the entire country. Wanna stay in then stay in. Flu still kills more. Covid isn't even close to being deadly. Stats dont lie, its embarrassing and now we have a huge tax bill to pay. Great.

Fingers crossed no one in your family catches a severe case of it. 
 

Those who’ve not been effected/impacted will see the media reporting and take it as numbers. 
 

Take your blinkers off.
