Thank you! I thought I was stuck with the stupid side bar, I’d been Googling everywhere.

Rewatching some ITV and even they couldn’t keep up with the subs. At the very end with Silva went off they showed Perrone coming onto the pitch on screen but no commentary on it. The next reference was an on scene graphic showing that Perrone had replaced KDB. Who took the ball from a pass just seconds later…

Quite. I assumed the person having a pop at him with “we can see your likes” was about him liking all the negative comments made regarding his performance and not the non-football related stuff.

Ok. I’d trade back the lighter mornings and evenings for some warmth please. It’s just not pleasant and forecast to get colder again. Brr.

Tinnion on Radio Bristol pre game was really talking up the first year scholars, so it’s good to see them getting exposed into games and taking those opportunities at this level.

Nothing was announced in the stadium. Everyone just started to shhhh and boo people who were still making noise as the players and ref stood in the middle. Then when it was silent, he started the intro to it. Picture on the screens and clapping started. He stopped as clearly people clapping wasn’t in the script, got his composure and continued for more “amble”. Then said the moments applause would start and end on the referees whistle, despite applauding having been undertaken for maybe 30 seconds? Ref gave it maybe 2 seconds then continued with the formalities and got us going.

Shambles from him. Worst thing of the evening. There are two numbers put up on the board. Match them to the sheet in your hand and read the names. If you’re not sure which team it is, wait until someone moves.

I don’t mind streets in the dark and can do a few routes etc but anything off road or trail in dark with a head torch just doesn’t appeal. If I can’t see the landscape, I don’t ever feel like I’m going anywhere and mentally I’m done.

Thanks be to lighter mornings and evenings. that is all

Oh. I remember that @Olé particularly loved Steve Jones.

Agree. The other run does nothing. The covering defender comes across to Semenyo but the other attacker doesn’t take any decisive action to put himself in an obvious place to receive the ball.

Because on average, clubs who tend to be in the later rounds tend to be in European competition and as that bloats there become much fewer midweeks available for replays?

Middle of Dolman. Certainly not a wall of noise from A block but did hear them from time to time. It was very different to have the crowd generating and starting songs from my left and right today. Main takeaway? Am fine for the fans to do stuff to improve the atmosphere. Just don’t be a ?head about it and think your opinion or experience is any more important than that of someone who just wants to sit in a Block A seat and watch the game.

Remarkable that Pearson previously said during the summer that he was only here still because of numbers. He still has some flaws in his game (positioning for the 2nd today seemed terrible) and can be targeted but certainly the most improved from last year and has some very good contributions to our forward play.

Has this happened previously for anyone yet? I mean actually putting clubs on an effective transfer embargo without notification?

Apologies if that has been covered before. Tried searching but not found it. Sure it has but hopefully that just makes the answer easier to share Scenario proposal- Bristol City are as they are now from a FFP perspective. Steve Lansdown is tiring of the long term project and would fancy a big time adventure before stepping aside. Steve wakes up and decides to go BIG and just bank roll a massive summer investment, with the sensible consideration of at least buying mainly players who could have resale value rather than aging mercenaries who have no value to sell on. Everyone is by default on a 5 year contract to spread their depreciation. Two outcomes, promotion or staying in the championship. If we flopped and stayed in the Championship what would be the likely FFP breach outcome? At what point can a club gamble that any FFP punishment is not a risk?

Quite disingenuous to point out the squad based on pre-Pearson signings. Have his signings improved the squad? We might not have spent big fees like we used to, but you’d argue that through Pearson’s man management and approach to playing them all have seen their market value decrease.

Why do we need a U.K. distributor? Everything we ship is sent out via the store. We just do a deal with Hummel, say we want X amount of kit. They produce it, ship it to us and we process it locally. Cut that needless link out of the supply chain and save money. Simple.

Except I probably won’t because they look likely to be going into administration (supposed money out of the event company to directors hasn’t helped) … who knows if anyone will take on an event for 2023 that has had all the entrant money already received and squandered.

Well someone, who HNM follows - also posted in French “HN7 the return ?? are you with the U17 or U19” and Han has replied with “hahaha the biggest mess in the world ??” So not sure how happy he is to be a newly placed regular in the stiffs

Why would someone buy him and loan him back to us? He can’t be learning a lot from our senior players apart from how to down tools when it gets tough.

Nigel made the point he put Andy King at CB because … (his long silent pause, not mine). Said the senior players didn’t protect Low, basically Also first half in one of the breaks he was giving Sykes a right rollocking, so clearly he was another who just isn’t doing it for Nigel at the moment.
