Use sky scanner and, if you are driving to an airport, take a look at 6-7 different airports.  If you live in Bristol you are less than 3 hours from Cardiff, Exeter, Southampton, Birmingham, Heathrow and East Midlands.  This year I am flying to Majorca from Exeter and for four people it was £700 cheaper than flying from Bristol 

That’s incredible’ it’s usually far more expensive flying from exeter.

Kitty’s light’ they’ve been building up for this for a long time’ be very surprised if it’s not at least placed’ will stay all day ‘ hopefully goes on the ground 

Credit where it’s due good performance’ thought james was class’ really important we do all we can to keep him’ special mention for Roberts looked really tidy .

I think his lack of progress is due to the media team “overloading him with too much information”. 

There’s not a lot he can change once the filming has started.

Max Bird getting promoted automatically with his childhood club and then joining a distant team with no greater prospects  

I can see some money changing hands and the transfer cancelled to avoid us having a greatly demotivated player

He must be thinking what the **** have I done.

I haven’t received an email or a text but I didn’t need a reminder - I renewed this morning without one.

Thanks for letting us know

Great post!

This really annoys me as well. I don’t think there is a model you can copy and apply it to us. What is obvious from any successful club is having a close team, connected with the fans, normally gets you there; whatever the style of play or types of players.

What I also struggle with is Lansdown’s inability to reflect on what’s worked well in the past: it’s always been the above but also with a strong experienced manager at the helm (GJ, SC and to an emerging extent NP). LJ broadly did OK having access to a war chest, but didn’t have the success of the aforementioned. 

For me the only realistic way we will see the Premier League is to bring in a leader of that ilk and let them just get on with it. 

That Nigel Pearson would be ideal for us ‘ he’s got a track record of steadily building clubs up and getting promoted from the championship

Can you blame me? At the moment, all you hear is how amazing he was 

Don’t think I’ve heard anyone say he was amazing’ there’s just a lot of people who understand what a good job he done in a absolute shit storm he came into’ there’s still fans out the who don’t get what a mess we were in.

Five weeks of holding back just MIGHT result in one or two changes that are required.......if enough do it.

I’ll guarantee they’ll bullshit that season tickets are going well.

I don't agree with sacking Tinnion, he's a legend like Scott Murray,  demote him, 

You can’t put Tinnion in the same bracket as Murray.

Don't think anyone decent would dream of coming here with the present set up. Noone to oversee development in a number of areas and support will be of no interest to any applicant.

But we’ve already got a top end squad’ what’s not to like’

11 days til our next game.

Absolutely no point in keeping him here and seeing if we can fluke a result against Leicester.

It would just be very Bristol City to sack him after losing to Leicester. 

Just do it now. There would be less disruption doing it now.

Season is over for us now so time to look ahead to next season. Get a new guy in and then he's got til the end of the season to analyse the squad and build some momentum going into next season. 

It’s far to logical to do it now’ it’s not how we work.

I still think a manager could perform in spite of what’s above him…and actually influence those above to change / educate them.  But appreciate it might need an ally or at least someone with an open mind in there too.

There are at least a couple who have a lot of space in their mind

I'm not so sure, I remember back when we were planning the 'new AG', SL went and met with Brighton, there was a bit on the telly about them meeting and discussing how to do it. I'm not defending SL, but he has built a very successful company, and you don't do that by employing nodding dogs.

Not football wise he hasn’t

Would probably get the same from Manning if you met him on a night out.

All that liquid would short circuit him.

This is true, but then most fans say things like "I'm a Liverpool fan from Essex" or "I'm a Man U fan from Bedford" etc. I'd rather have the delightful self-conferred sense of superiority that comes from supporting your local club - no matter how shit they are.

You usually get yeah but who’s your prem club

Dont call me a liar. I say what i think and tell the truth.

Sky bet actually would only let me put £20 max on it so i went through to bet 365 to put the rest on, i took screen shots for you.

You’ll be able to lay that off in a few games time’ you might actually make a small profit.

Sterling is awful

He’s just taken the worst free kick I’ve ever seen’ not a exaggeration’ woeful

Then be confused. I find Birmingham City as dull as can be. One of few teams I will not watch on sky. You can love them all you like.

Don’t love them’ just can’t see huw there dull with what they’ve achieved.

And still as dull as dishwater. 

If that’s dull I’ll take it all day long ‘ how is winning a major trophy’ European away days and playing prem football dull ‘ really confused.

I think Birmigham join us in the top 6 dullest.

No chance’ premier league and won a major cup final and a few games in Europe 

I’ve said a few times on here before’ I’ve worked all over the country and talked to loads of other clubs fans most just see us as a bit of a nothing club’ you get the odd few who rated us a premier league for hooliganism back in the day .
