Got it. I'd seen that before but had no idea what it was 

In most cases, it's a matter of being told. The salesman you dealt with probably didn't know either

Which menu is that in? Is it in the info app?

Check the image in the below link:

Use the left and right buttons on the steering wheel and up/down if needed to get the display.

You can see the line in the middle of eco which means top end motor effort.

I've got the Corolla self-charging hybrid. 1.8 petrol but anything up to about 25mph and it runs on electric. Also, running down the motorway it keep switching the engine off and using the EM too. No need to charge it so seems like the best of both worlds. Would love to go full electric sometime soon though.

You can run the motor up to 80 mph, but is subject to effort and charge. Charge isn't normally an issue, it's inclines. The previous generation was only 47 mph.

Don't know if you have noticed it, but there's a display on your instrument cluster which shows a power bar. The power bar in "Eco" has a line half way across it. The bar raises the more you put your foot on the throttle pedal. Keep it below the half way line in Eco and it can work quite well off the motor.

Not sure if you're aware

Virgin.

Kia EV6 and Polestar 2 worth a mention of you want higher mileage capacity.

Otherwise if you're not wanting to charge, then go with Toyota or Lexus. Toyota offer a good balance between fun to drive and fuel economy.

I have a 2L Corolla and it is far superior to the 1.8L Auris I had before in many ways. Also, is has the next generation of Toyota's amazing hybrid technology.

Mental that he’s not an automatic starter for us, or at least hasn’t been until very recently.

I think Nigel Pearson and his team have managed him exceptionally well this season.

@Lewisdabaron, can you stop being a cock please?

The post was about a vlogger's vlog; like it or not.

Nobody asked for opinions regarding YouTubers.

Not bothered or shown interest in vlogging, but that's a quality video.

The guy is really good and likeable to be fair.

Will subscribe and like. Would also be interesting to compare his away days thus far

To be fair, Pearson could've moved the players around to put him on the left, but I think there was good reason not to.

Dasilva won't offer anything near the same on the right, but I think Pearson put him there to test his application and attitude more than anything else. And he was excellent in doing what was required.

As mentioned, Pearson clearly appreciated his contribution which was great to see.

This manager is getting his message accross to the squad. His interviews are consistent in what he requires.

You can be a Bakinson or a Dasilva

Probably cus they were so shit and also piss-poor, the first thing they must've thought of was the toilets to relieve their tensions.

Went to Pasture a couple of times after it opened whilst it was still the new kid on the block & must say each time was outstanding. Haven't been for a couple of years but it'll be a shame if they've let standards slip. 

Been to Pasture at least 10-15 times and it is always exceptional. This includes Sunday lunch.

Not the cheapest, but I have no issue with paying for top quality food and drinks.

It's not uncommon to have to wait months for a peak time/day slot.

Welcome to the AFCON.

He looks like at least a 7/10 in all required departments at Championship level.

Can only get better.

Probably the biggest positive of the season.

A couple of things to consider if not seen. Namely the Wages to Turnover and Owner Financing. More so, the fact that other clubs around Bristol City are in the shitter.

Furthermore from this. Here's the breakdown:

Now Sold.

Thanks Mods I appreciate that.

How much you sell it for, out of interest?

I have one too.

I can’t be the only one slightly worried that one day one of these idiots is going to run on the pitch with the intent of doing either a player or one of the officials some serious harm, instead of just running about like a prat. 

We have to open our coats/jackets these days when entering the grounds of the stadium. For that reason, safety is guaranteed

Obvs

About as exiting and hopeless as Sproule in a City shirt.

All pace no product. Perhaps some potential, but many frustrating ifs in his 'ability'.

Nothing like Zaha or Kyle Walker when they were Championship youngsters. 

Wasn't there supposed to be an agreement that Gregg's were going to supply the food at Ashton Gate a few years ago, or have I imagined that?

In fairness if you’ve not bought any food inside for years, you’re probably out of touch with some of the excellent food they have sold over the past few seasons.  Pies aren't as nice this year admittedly, but until this season definitely not poor value for money / overpriced imho.

There has been some decent outlets. I used to love the Mexican burritos which had part of a kiosk in the Lansdown concourse.

And the Spanish van outside the Lansdown which is ran by two brothers.

Then the Jamaican on the South Stand corner where you could get Red Stripe and some good food.

The Night Manager - Amazon

The Serpent - Netflix

The Spy - Netflix 

Check if not seen. All really good.

Don't think it has been mentioned in this thread, but Geifer was signed up as he was such a highly rated goalkeeper BUT he had a clean tear in a leg muscle meaning he couldn't kick a football anymore to say the least. It probably affected his agility/mobility too.

He was practically re-training himself as there was no full recovery.

Didn't work out for him and the injury has set him back further, dropping to the lower leagues in Germany.

Why have some papers named him and others not?

Probably dependant on the context.

The Sun link mentions his name and arrested, but not any particular crime.

The BBC mention a crime and don't link it to a person, being careful not to accuse.

Both dodging getting sued.

Not our club's result or today's performance, obvs....

But this guy, who has just come out of hibernation since the start of the season:

Embarrassing

Was their first win of the season.
