  1. Worked him out in 12 weeks! "His wanky management speak is starting to wear thin and isn’t disguising the fact he hasn’t improved us one bit, about time he started getting a run of decent results instead of spouting this POMO/USP/absolute shambles corridor bollocks all the time" and "Billy Bullshit. Cliched David Brent pseudo intellectual shite. Lee, the thick northerners have their bullshit detector out mate. Cut the crap."
  2. Shame we didn't get that driving mail right just on H/T, was sure we'd scored but replay/TMO clearly showed not ?. Here we go then !
  3. @Bob Taylor is GOD I was intrigued as to what did happen so did a bit of searching and the answer is actually on the OS (see, we should listen to Robbored!) https://www.bcfc.co.uk/fanzone/club-history/potted-history/ entry headed 1992 1992: Andy Cole is signed from Arsenal in July for a club record fee of £500,000. The old floodlight pylons are given to Wigan Athletic. So yes - good spot - the lights are different and not ours, it was the pylons that were given (not sold) to Wigan. Their first floodlight game was 19 Oct 1966
  4. Dunno mate, I was just saying what is written in the history books.........I wasn't actually there at Wigan on the day the lights were allegedly installed (or not). Maybe Henry Ford was right?
  5. My source is the Bristol City historian David Wood -in his book "Bristol City The first 100 years" He was quite specific, maybe they modified them?
  6. @Malago was right in a way, and @weepywall The original 1935 floodlights were sold to Burton Albion The ones switched on in 1965 were sold to Wigan Athletic (Springfield Park) when the 4 corner pylons were removed and the replacement lamps were fitted along the front of the Dolman and Williams roof.
  7. Top man Paul ? I was gutted when Ben Garner was sacked as he was doing such a great job........but it looks like Tisdale is on course to finally get them out of League 1 Well done Paul ?
  8. Ok, The £40M Burnley had in the bank has been lent to CVL , and it's now on their balance sheet as a debt. and the loan is to CVL not Burnley - but there is now a charge placed on the ground . So they had £40M in cash, no debt, and no mortgage. They now have no cash, are owed £40M , and have a mortgage. I realise this is all legal but I know which I would prefer.
  9. You'll have to explain that please I don't get your point. because as far as I can see. Burnley had £42M in the bank, and no debt The 2 main owners - majority shareholders- sold the club for £100M to ALK Capital In order to pay that £100M , ALK took £40M from Burnley's bank account and borrowed the other £60M from Michael Dell's MSD company and secured the loan against Turf Moor . The loan interest rate is unknown but MSD have loaned similar amounts to Southampton FC at 9.14% - 9 x the bank base rate. So 2 months ago Burnley had £40M.....now they owe £60M How can that be right, how can that be of benefit to the club, the fans, the community?
  10. Pretty sure I saw this guy working the Dodgems at the last Mop Fair in Chipping Sodbury.
  11. Didn't know! Thanks ? 4.30 is better. ........ it's ok to start drinking at 4 during lockdown I think, so all good ??
  12. It was first sung I recall about Frank Worthington back in the day.. Leicester fans singing Frankie Frankie Worthington and the East End drowning it out with wanky wanky Worthington
  13. Chicory Tip Son of my Father Or have I got the tune completely wrong?
  14. Fascinating story, you had me on the edge of my seat there Robbo ? How about telling us about that away trip you thought about going on..............................but decided not to bother to go in the end. Or the time you were going to call in to Radio Bristol and slag off GJ.................................but couldn't be arsed should be ? ??
  15. Luton were League 2 when they were signed I think.
  16. Who's Davinia ? The papers say the woman allegedly assaulted was his partner Kate Greville. Does he just punch every woman he disagrees with?
  17. Fair enough, I took the option BT offered to donate my bt sport fee to the NHS so unfortunately they're going to lose the 50%
  18. No, it's the full price you paid before. 5 games a day though..from noon till 10 pm so get plenty of beer in!
  19. Check your Sky account....they've already implemented the sky sports subscription from 19/6/20. My dd goes out on Monday and I saw on my pending transactions on my online bank that the sky payment was increasing. Interesting that the increase was actually put on before the PL announced the start date! ..well I suppose Sky are running football nowadays.
  20. BBC only have 4 games, it hasn't been stated how these will be shown but I imagine it will be on the BBC Sport website as the press release refers to BBC Sport not BBC TV. The rest split pro rata between Sky BT and Amazon according to their existing ratio I guess. Sky have agreed to show 25 games ' free to air' . They're will be streams everywhere though so everyone can watch if they want.
