  1. No football fan whatever  the level is satisfied with their teams performance, man utd fans and ex players slating the team  on tv radio social media is one example. We would give our right arm to be in their position.The gas would love to be in our position! All is not lost yet ,we are in the championship ffs.I am sure NP has something up his sleeve (apart from his arm) pre-season will tell us. NP inherited a shit show, i think he will come good in the end.

  2. He did bring the culture of the club into question today!But he is right! SL just wants everything and everyone to be nicey-nicey,and this is our last chance under Pearson,we need to back him.Get rid of all the deadwood,kick ass,otherwise we will soon be back in div 1.

    There is no way we should risk losing Williams to injury, much more sensible not to pick him at all.

    Hang on....

    Yeah but ! wait a minute he might pull his hamstring? No but! He is a total waste of time! can't last a game! Yeah but! he's a great midfield player,saw him giving Peterborough evils ,No but! almost 2 seasons now and played about 10 games.Yeah but! he is a nice lad ,everyone loves him in training,No but! he is no good to us with his present fitness problem  which shows no sign of going way! Yeah but! No but! etc,etc.

  4. Throw-ins, goal kicks, free kicks, substitutes ,all teams waste time when it suits.including us.But there is nothing more infuriating when we are losing than watching the opposition put the time wasting tactics into operation.Goalkeepers can take up to 2 minutes on a .goal kick. Ball goes out ,goalie  seems to lose the use of his legs, ambles towards ball ,picks it up, ambles back,puts ball down ,waves his arm,pretending he is pointing to the spot he will kick the ball, stops waving his arms, walks slowly backwards, waves his arms again,kicks ball,Ashton Gate is frozen in time.Its the same for throw -ins, and the more they are ahead the worse it gets. Oh boy! Have we been on the end of it this season!?

    Currently Burnley have improved. Everton, Newcastle and Leeds are all in danger of being relegated along with Watford & Norwich.

    If one of the "bigger" clubs is to come down, who'd you prefer and why.

    If it was Newcastle or Leeds, the majority of game would be televised because that what Sky did last time.  I'd like Everton to come down because they are perceived to be "one of the big boys" and secondly, a founder member of the Prem.

    Over to you for your thoughts....

    Are you sure we will still be in the championhip next year?

  6. We are not safe! We are in free fall! And anymore crazy team selections like yesterday will see us plummet into the relegation abyss! What is pearson playing at? This is no time to experiment ,

    certain youngsters have proved their worth, but should Sam Bell be selected in a defensive role ahead of Pring and Atkinson? He is a centre forward ffs .Great 2nd half performance but!

    the stable door was open! and the horse had already bolted?

  7. Keith Fear v Leeds utd Aston Gate 1974 fa cup. Crammed in like sardines in the east end. Bremner scored for Leeds, then in the 2nd half the ball  is played long and wide to the right hand side kicking toward the Atyeo stand.Fear gets there 1st and executes an audacious an incredible chip over Gary Sprake from way out.The crowd go wild!This is followed by the famous 0-1 replay win which featured the famous Donnie Gillies winner !
