Street red

 The problem with us is the quality of our players and that one quality is thought process we are not up to the standard of Leeds they have players that just play without even blinking pass move give and go if you noticed vyner and dickie last night with the ball at there feet it's slow motion almost like they take a few seconds look up and give the ball. Our players just couldn't get to grips to what they had to do Conway was getting very frustrated players arguing.Manning wants us to play this passing game but unfortunately I don't think we have the players to produce it consistently everything Pearson said about. We play the game but at very slower thought process than teams like Leeds Southampton and Leicester we are a far cry from these teams and the way tinnion and manning want us to play isn't going to get us up we need to have a couple of different ways to play due to the standard of players we have and thats why our passing game is slower to watch almost frustrating at times. IE Alex Scott his thought process and reading of the game is exceptional.

Apparently we have 26,400 seats.
Rough figures;
The Atyeo has 4,200 seats.
There was about 3,000 Leeds
Leaves 1,200 empty. 
Total 25,400 
Attendance 25,429 so we sold what we could.

As for empty seats, at least in the SS . Take a look at the back, I mentioned to a mate how many seats were empty , but then noticed a lot stand at the back of the stand. That and no shows / young kids not coming for a night game and I think that explains it.

The Club have made it possible to pass on your season ticket, so they've done their part. 

There is a seat near us in the south stand at the back it never comes up for sale,The bloke next to me tried to book the seat for his missus but couldn't been like it for a couple of seasons apparently.

Born in Kent, moved to Glasgow when he was 8, but has a Mancunian accent. This urgently needs investigating imo 

Worse than a Welsh cockney

Saturday for me can't beat it,Week nights are always a rush but as atmosphere goes night games for that 100%.

Imagine minding your own business as an Ipswich fan and this bloke lands on you from a great height...

 

Looked like a Leeds fan

Come on who feels sorry for Ipswich

Loving this Maidstone giving them a proper go.

You mean they actually train the way manning speaks there hardly out there. Loan physio will come in handy

Well, I'm happy enough with that performance. Glass half full here.

I didn't even realise we never managed a shot on target, I think because we created some decent chances.

And Liam Manning was realistic in his post match RB interview.

We're getting there slowly, but clearly need better options at the top end to link with the main striker (I've officially given up hope of seeing a two upfront). Be nice to see it this window, but I'd rather stick than bust a load over risky gamble of a signing.

He won't change from one up top good luck with that manning because we won't be going anywhere fast.

Think I’m right in saying, they have more players playing on the African Nations cup than any other Prem team. I imagine some of them will be back for the replay. 

I think it's six in total to could be wrong.

They will have players back for the replay and there definitely better at home so it will be a different game.

Its nothing to do with health and Safety it is purely a revenue generating exersize Supporters used to be able to park all over the cumberland basin and there seemed to be less accidents back then as the cars slowed down when passing the parked cars ..

Can cars park in the Manheim Vehicle Auction site on Ashton Vale Rd ? They have a hugh car park there,  If not the Club ought to rent it out for supporters and concert goers to use at a minimal cost

All ANPR at Manheim no chance of using that one.

Have done that for a couple of years, but it wasn't a quick get away on Saturday. Seemed there were far more that normally parking there. With all those parked on the grass outside it took over quarter of an hour to get out.

Seems more people have got the same idea.

This is the comparison I made in the match day thread.

This was a rather cringeworthy and embarrassing thing to “celebrate” IMO - especially just a couple of days after effectively repeating the same feat.

In 30 years that's all we have to celebrate it doesn't say alot does it.

The club and council seem to forget not every city fan lives in bloody Bristol and if they think it's easy getting public transport to games they can think again it also makes your day twice as long. I park in the park and ride at long Ashton it makes sense.

No way I'm paying £10 or more for parking absolute mugs game.

Quality interview and the part about changing manager is spot on.

No one’s forcing you to sit in the Lansdown. Why not use the cup to take in a different view of the game? 
 

Best thing about cup games is moving around the ground. 

 

Better than bouncing

Here's a novel concept - the club can print them their-selves and avoid this bollix in future.

Not every invention causes actual progress.

Yep like the west ham tickets we received through the post no problems at all. But this club never learns and with the people running the show I don't think it will.

Hey I don't usually make threads but what the hell happened tonight with tickets? There was so many people in s23/24 sneaking in on the stairs and overcrowding

 

Anyone know?

Not sure but I know I got clicked in instead of scanning my ticket. Not sure if there was a problem but queues outside Lansdown and south stand total mess if you ask me.

I am delighted and disgusted with this signing.

The board are hypocrites, and have now sanctioned the signing of a player who could get us into the playoffs.

I for one won't be stepping inside Ashton Gate until the Lansdowns have gone, but can't wait to take my seat tomorrow night.

Your seat? On the sofa

Think that's poor writing from the post.

 

I believe it's trying to say it's not the same as the TGH one which did have a loan to buy agreement.

Thank you it wasn't me being dumb

The agreement does not include an option to buy, as was the case with Taylor Gardner-Hickman's loan from West Brom, but there is a confidence that if the 24-year-old proves a success a more long-term resolution can be reached, albeit with the security such a clause would provide.

from bristol post, hopefully we have atleast a gentleman's agreement over price.

 

That's say not an option to buy but we agreed a fee of 1.3 million to buy if successful so the option was in there?

Tinnion, Cotterell, Holden, LJ extended contract etc, etc no hindsight needed there.

And one of those is still at the club after being sacked!!
