Sorry yeah should have made clearer 51 left of first batch! Guess remaining blocks will go on sale soon 

6 blocks behind the goal sold out, only 37 left in end block. Is that only a thousand?

Only 55 remaining, according to the stadium plan.

Only 1,000 were put on. Still impressive sales so far 

826 sold so far if that’s the case. Is the 3 blocks only a 1000?

Why are some people talking like Semenyo was some kind of super star and single handedly keeping us in the championship?

Exactly, he has potential, but that’s it. For every good finish, there was a shot that hit the Robins pub! Think we got good money for potential, especially if we have a decent sell on clause.

A girl I knew married a scouser and had a pub up there. She rang me and told us to bring the mini bus to her place. She opened up the pool table and jukebox for free all afternoon, then put food on for us. Pub was full of Everton and Liverpool, so there was loads of banter going round ( we gave them loads of stick, but I don’t think they got the Bristolian sense of humour). We had a spare ticket, so a Everton fan said he’d have it. He came with us and told us where to park, it was right outside the Kiop on double yellow lines, fair play , no ticket when we came out. Went back to the pub after and gave the Liverpool fans loads. More food was put on, followed by the curtains shutting and having a lock in. Knock on the window and off duty old bill come in for a drink! ! Left there at 2 o clock in the morning, great day!!

It's just going to make me laugh, when we are going to have the same people demanding Pearson being sacked when we look turgid again.

 

Good luck boys. Keeping us up this season and next will be the miracle. Imo he'd deserve manager of the season if it happens. 

 

We all know deep down who the problems are at the club. 

It will just be amusing if we see posters demanding him go when this is what he is working with.

 

 

How much do you think our players should be on to keep them? Let’s say we pay them 20k a week, 15 players at that is 15 million a year. We get around 6million in season ticket sales, where does the money to balance the books come from? We’ve got to sell at least one player every season just to cut the massive losses every year.

He's 1.88m

Bentley is 1.93

O'Leary is 1.85

(according to Transfermarkt)

What’s that in feet and inches? He looked small in goal today, might be because he’s only got a slight build.

Really? He will get bullied in league football at the present time

Looks small for a keeper, both in height and physicality.

There was plenty of human error yesterday if that helps?

Exactly! So what’s the point of it?

VAR is a complete joke. There’s got to be room for human error in the game, was it really that bad before it came in ? Are they getting the decisions right now? Human error has always been part of the game, do players and managers not make any mistakes at all?

True. I’m not watching so cannot really comment. But I would argue that 1 assist and 1 goal is not nothing. 

I’m not watching either, but someone who is, said he was poor.

Hasn’t Wilson scored & Tanner got an assist?

You can score and have a bad game mind

Was at the Man City game on the Friday , don’t think I missed a home game in the first division. Don’t know why it was on the Friday, but I remember a Man City fan running the length of the pitch, from Open End to East End and waving a flag in front of us. Not sure if that was the same game mind, a lot of alcohol has been drunk since then! Also remember Mike Doyle, Man City captain at the time, saying that City couldn’t lace his boots, then we beat them! If the Friday was 2 2, couldn’t have been the same game!

Regarding the Rovers vIpswich game, I remember Rovers being all over them and Ipswich scoring a very dubious equaliser, offside/ hand ball or something. Oh how we laughed!!

Any other manager would’ve been sacked by now!!

What age? Did he work in Colodense in West St in the 1970's?

If so I knew him then.

Yes he did.

Thanks Dave. What a great thing to do, I honestly didn’t realise he was still associated with city in any form. Fair play 

Arranges a lot of meals etc. for ex players, especially the promotion team of the 70s. Got a box down there as well.

Good to see . Didn’t know anything about that until I saw this tweet this morning. Fair play 

Anyone how involved or what he done. Seems quite heavily involved in the arrangement of it all 

Massively involved, he does a lot behind the scenes that people don’t know about. He actually drove to Hull to see Jimmy Mann this week. Mann couldn’t make it because of illness, so Scott drove up to see him and deliver some memorabilia. He’s a top man.

I’m watching on iptv, supersports 1 South Africa. Perfect picture.

Well I would cross one off that list, can't wish them all the best, hope they get stuffed on Saturday.

So do I, but I can see them getting through and being drawn against us! At the moment , I don’t fancy our chances!!

Rather scratch me balls on a cheese grater than watch that

You don’t want to do that. I did that watching the last game they played, what a ******* mess! Had to get my Mrs to clear it up!!

Been saying for a long time, we should be trying to fill the ground with freebies for different groups. Hopefully the homeless, servicemen and women, and nurses etc will be next.

£35 for the hospitality offer, i don’t believe WE seen much of the game though!

you’ve had less appearances than callum o dowda this season ain’t you?

 

Wether I’ve been or not is immaterial, I’ve paid for a season ticket!!

For every Mel Morris there is a Brighton owner, Norwich owner, burnley owner, Brentford owner.

Weak argument that everyone frightened of change refer to

I know it’s all relative, but how much have you put in this season?

Am I the only one who finds having over 2000 pages dedicated to that lot embarrassing? They are not, and haven't really been our rivals for years. The little childish comments and inuedos put us on a par with them to a certain degree

Just me and you then mate
