Since you asked… They were a middle-ranking team throughout their history that occasionally won trophies but also occasionally dipped into the second tier, until a shady billionaire oligarch sailed up the Thames on his megayacht and roided them up into a domestic and European powerhouse. Now that everything Russian is verboten, they will swiftly shrivel back into what they once were. I look forward to seeing them back at the Gate with a contemporary Dave Beassant being harried by contemporary Turner and Gavin in due course. ?

They’re Staying Rome! Well I never - made my day, that has. Two consecutive World Cups missed, tis a modicum of recompense. Arrivederci, bastardos.

I don’t think he’s right, but if he truly believes the players he’s picking are costing us time and again then yes, he should take a gamble on their understudies.

I think there’s more chance of him chucking in the towel honestly and taking a walk than being shown the door. We need to persevere as today was for long periods about as good as we’ve had it all season, despite the hammer blow of conceding the umpteenth stoppage time goal of the campaign. His post-match remarks, however, seriously got my hackles up: “It’s the same players making the same mistakes.” So stop selecting them then.

Unbelievable- but I’d’ve taken that after the midweek debacle.

Whatever the outcome of this trial, Barton is incontrovertibly a massive dark stain on a pair of new white underpants and “Bristol” Rovers are a pox on humanity. In all my years of judging I have never heard before Of someone more deserving Of the full penalty of law To be exposed before your peers is my sentence Tear down the tents! Tear down the tents!

I’ve never cared for them as their fans have always acted like d***s at the Gate, most notably during an FA Cup tie in 1995. Trip to Goodison would be good, though - would be first visit for City on league business (or any business for that matter) since 1979!

During the Manchester Derby play was stopped for another medical emergency in the crowd. At the risk of sounding unfeeling, I’m not a fan of these increasing stoppages due to one fan taking ill. Of course, if there’s a genuine crowd safety issue then the game needs to be halted but where it’s one fan I’m not convinced it’s necessary. Of course get them the medical treatment they need ASAP. But no need to stop the game in a crowd of 50,000.

We can breathe easy, at least temporarily. No relegation this season, although it’s a distinct possibility that we finish fourth from bottom and that the final table gives the impression we were in much bigger danger of the drop than we actually were. The worst thing from a BCFC fan’s viewpoint is we still have to sit through another 10 games of this. It’s been utterly excruciating. However, next season we are going down sure as eggs is eggs unless something changes dramatically. With our parlous financial position, the fact that we will likely be forced to cash in on our few stand-out performers from this season and Pearson showing precious little signs of being able to turn the tanker a year and more into the job, I just don’t see where that’s coming from.

Although - our fans did not exactly cover themselves in glory that wet and windy day either. Our loon element were more than up for fighting with the Londoners. And an Eastenders actor who was wearing a Chelsea scarf was the victim of an unprovoked assault at the hands of a CSF hooligan. Yes, apparently Master Bates had difficulty understanding that electrocuting your customers is frowned upon.

Too true. God I detest that putrid little club.

I thought obnoxious people who are justifiably considered pariahs peddling laughably false propaganda was being clamped down upon in the current climate… ?

Seeing the Rent Boys’ result slightly improved my mood this evening. Just a smidge mind. And Swindon’s injury-time winner puts a dent in their playoff hopes. Look what you’ve reduced me to, City, cheering on a Welsh team ? and being pleased about STFC winning at the death.

Incredible that two of them came within two minutes - and that she wasn’t hooked off immediately after. No player’s confidence is going to survive that.

Men entering the women’s lavatories should increase the punishments for the perpetrators (assuming it was men who carried out the wanton destruction in there too - and I use the term “men” extremely loosely; more like idiotic little boys). I maintain that if you invite someone to your gaff and they destroy the place you don’t ask them back. Not sure hiw it would fly legally, but BCFC should seriously look at massively reducing CCFC’s allocation for future matches.

Hopefully a drastically reduced allocation for the pea-brained headtappers beckons if we play them again next season - and that’s quite a big “if”. Read an article earlier that contestants for the new series of Mastermind are being sought; suffice it to say none of that shower need apply.

Seriously though it’s scandalous that those grasping clubs get to ply their trade in our set-up. At least clubs like Colwyn Bay and Rhyl has the integrity to do the decent thing. Still gets my hackles up that they had a ticket to Europe after Heysel and lo and behold their yobs run amok in Liege. ? It’s a bizarre state of affairs and likely one that isn’t sustainable as the two nations inevitably drift further apart constitutionally.

Oh no, the best for all concerned would be if they toddled off and played in their own country’s league considering they are so bleeding proud to be Welsh. They’re not welcome.

Haha - they’ll never shake their massive inferiority complex. I don’t think they understand just how universally detested they are with Joey at the wheel.

Surely not? The Greatest Fans in the world?TM

First time for everything, I s’pose. They’ve certainly disgraced themselves at your place in the past.

Whoever decided that our game with the Olympic swimmers and Swindon’s clash with the tobacco-chewing hillbillies should both be early kickoffs needs their head read.

Caused a huge flood of dirty water in the Atyeo. Fortunately they are adept at swimming away.

Odious little club. Shown up for what they are on and off the pitch yesterday. Saw a video of them at Temple Meads singing “Just like Cardiff, your city is blue.” What a w***y chant - what other club is there in Cardiff?!? Not to mention they sported red for a while. I suppose Cardiff isn’t red now given that egg-chasing national team has won zero World Cups. The Welsh clubs are here on sufferance - time to kick them out of the English cistern I reckon. *System

Only reason we didn’t win was a superb save from Wells’ header. A bit of balance wouldn’t go amiss, Bas…
