  1. My grandad, used to collect peoples bets in hotwells in those days,nogbag. He was known as tracker thomas, Him and a gentleman called george workman, used to run the bare knuckle fights. Used to hear some amazing storys.
  2. Spot on nogbad, many of the people who lived in the houses, got relocated to lawrence weston. Was there a book, the lost pubs of bristol? If there isnt there should be. Would love to see some pictures of that pub.
  3. There was a city player involved that night, and it was a big thing at the time. I cant recall who. Gary marshall? Anybody?
  4. I can recall, rovers used to give luckwell school, free tickets in the early to mid 80s. I think one person went. Only free tickets i recall, the school, getting from city, was a england vs turkey under 21 game at the gate about 85.
  5. Yes, i reckon the crown and anchor shut early 90s. My grandad used to drink in one called the swansea arms at the start of the portway.
  6. What was the brown pub,end of hotwells rd, before the hill? Still got the outside of a pub now. The crown?
  7. If you asked a neutral, who do you fancy to get sacked in the bottom divsion this week.. You would only get one name.
  8. If the fans turn against you, and you are in the bottom 3. Its only a matter of time. Even over there.
  9. It took the chairman, about the same time to suss the last one couldnt win a game. If they are in the bottom 3 end of the month, i think his hand maybe forced.
  10. Stick and carrot handed out at the same time. Going by the last few managers, shelf life, surely he wont see september out now.
  11. Anybody remeber the nelsons arms on clarence rd, on the corner after the mayors arms? It used to have mushrooms, and green slime growing on the wallpaper. Reckon it went about 98.
  12. No, i dont recall any issues with ipswich. They helped us out in 82, with a benefit match. Certainly a friendly ground to visit. Laid back atmosphere there.
  13. Saw them, at brudenell social club in leeds in 2015. No joking, they have eggboxes on the wall there. They did the louder than bombs album. Go see them, you wont regret it.
  14. First time i saw lita play, he either, got 2 or 3 at hereford, in a friendly. We had that giant, ian goodison on trial. i recall.
  15. Got a class hat trick in the first game, i saw him play. Up against a decent defence too.
  16. The give it time philosophy. With what he left here, i admre you optimism. All these signing, and the rather loud entrance. The americans and mr ashton, have invited pressure. How many of the 20 will be good enough for the leauge above, if you cant even beat newport?
  17. I worked with him on a site, down town. He got sacked for hanging around the fire escape. They said he was a premature evacuater.....
  18. The two players training with them, Hes cracking up, expecting them to have the legs for that leauge.
  19. If barrow beat them, surely a vote of confidence? I hope he stays myself. Surely even they wont put up with that?
  20. If they are top 2 by december, he wlll think hes jose mourinho. If not, everybody will be blamed bar him. I heard he visited, a sports psychologist, he said the fans have treated me like a dog for so long, i think im a dog, im going mad. Sit on the couch please sir. I cant said mark, im not allowed on the furniture.
  21. Never mind under a bus, he will be on a bus. Next stop wandsworth.
  22. All the players hes signed this summer. Imagine if they do sack him. The great reset over in a few weeks. Who would have ever thought that eh?
  23. That picture with the scarf says it all. He can barely lift it above his waist. The clouds forming above him, and the picturesque, surroundings, hes in, looks like a park, i dunno? No wonder he cant raise a smile.
  24. Bob hopes chippy, was the best in weston for years, i dunno about these days. The guy, who owns nobanno curryhouse in bishopsworth, owns one or did down a side street, name escapes me.
  25. Rons ex butler, from broadmoor, used to drink in the try again! He wasnt a butler by trade, if you catch my drift.... Used to live down by littlecross house, had some amazing storys.
