W-S-M Seagull

Of course Blackburn was a midweek home game where as Sunderland was a Saturday 3pm game which I watched a live stream of. My narrative is that I do not think Manning is the right fit for this club. I don't hide away from that. And there is nothing wrong with me having those views. Just like there is nothing wrong with someone thinking he is the right fit for us. I did write positive things after Blackburn. I did write positive things after other wins. I was leading the play off charge after the Southampton win so let's not try and create a false narrative here. Yes there has some been some good moments but overall we have under achieved this season and I'm perfectly entitled to call that out. As I've said many times, it's perfectly possible to be happy with a 5 nil win but still be unhappy with the overall bigger picture.

You can't reason with these people mate. They consider genuine concern about how the club is run as an 'agenda' Apparently we all have to tow the line on a forum and must only post positive things. These people are incapable of any sort of critical thinking. Ultimately we have at the very most, stagnated this season. We all expected progression this season and I don't think there is any Bristol City fan that can genuinely say we have progressed this season. Ultimately that falls upon those who run the club but also Manning must take responsibility for that too because we have not progressed under him. 6 games unbeaten is great, but it happened at a time where it is meaningless. No one wants to talk about the bad runs, when it actually mattered, because that doesn't suit their narrative. If people rate Manning, fair play. You won't see me trolling them because of their support of Manning. Yet some people just can't help themselves because I don't rate him and I don't think he is the guy to take us forward. But apparently I'm not allowed to have those opinions.

Gavin Marshall did say that we are looking to not have too many more season ticket holders than we currently have.

Go on then, tell us all how?

I firmly believe we would have not have done any worse than we have done under Curtis and Jason.

But we're all supposed to be happy and forget about these things because we've gone 6 unbeaten and are doing as well as we did last season. I know I'm an outspoken poster, but I don't let results blind my views. Ultimately for each and every one of us, Bristol City and how it is run should be the number 1 concern and its been run very very badly. What really hurts my stomach is that we try and portray ourselves as a caring community club but actually we are not. There are some really good people that work within the club don't get me wrong. But the reality is it is very cut throat at bcfc and very clicky.

Just think its very crass for anyone to support someone losing their job because of health issues. No one is saying to the Lansdowns get out of our club because of health issues and if that situation happened I'd call that out too.

"Where I do have some sympathy with the Lansdowns is Nige's health. A current as yet undiagnosed neurological condition that is basically making Nige immobile would have to be a consideration if you are thinking about giving him a longer contract. It sounds quite concerning to me. Football is a ruthless business and, where possible, you do need everyone firing at 100%. Nige seems unbothered by it, which is a great mentality to have, but I think we have to accept it must be at least a point of consideration for the owners going forward" Your comments about Nigels health is why you are on my ignore list.

Totally respect if you think this is a sign were heading in the right direction however to me at this point it's following the same pattern of LJ. Poor runs followed by good runs.

There were posters on here calling for him to be sacked because of his health issues. It just shows that society has a very long way to go.

The only punishment they faced was for not co-operating. CAS said they found no evidence of them hiding investment from their owner under sponsorship.

That's not how it works in this country mate. The PL say they have evidence, Man City say they have evidence which proves their evidence wrong. That's the whole purpose of them having a hearing. They may well be guilty but due process needs to be followed and until that time they are not guilty.

Personally I don't think it will have any material impact. I think people will just suck up the price increases especially those who abused the offer.

How does being charged with something in any walk of life prove any guilt?

How's that going?
