What makes you say that kid? Lansdown selling up is complicated by the whole Bristol sport model I reckon, unless he sells the whole lot! Possible.

How I feel as well. Opportunities don’t come often for us and that night should of been a launch pad for but in reality that season finished with a whimper and we’ve been going backwards since. that squad and the money it raised was the best chance we will have of making the Prem in my lifetime and we blew it . Or rather Mark Ashton did, and to a lesser extent Lee Johnson.

One of the reasons I didn’t get a season ticket this year. So few 3pm Saturday games. That and the fact we are crap ?

Fair play to him. in response I’d say it’s my money and I’ll do what I want. Hence why this former season ticket holder has only been to 3 games so far and isn’t planning on making it 4 any time soon.

Stop talking sense. No place on here

And the budgets. Parachute payments are making the championship a farce.

Feels like that doesn’t it. You have to laugh or you’ll cry has never been more apt.

I think we have to look at the marvellous mr Ashton and our superb owners for where we are now. Blame managers all we want but I’m not sure how much influence they had on signings whilst Ashton was here. wev’e messed up the best chance we’ll have for ages last few years. Completed excellent stadium and facilities and a glut of players who we could sell on for hefty fees, vast majority of which Ashton didn’t sign and we squander the lot. We tried to be like Brentford but we’re the exact opposite.

Lansdown is completely culpable in my eyes. He has a mistrust of ‘football people’ IMO but yet saw fit to give the keys to the club to this utter cynt. Give me strength. The guy had far too much influence and on what basis or track record of previous success was this afforded to him? Ridiculous.

When I read the OP i thought this was some sort of parody post but I read the link and WOW just wow. That is absolutely hilarious ?

What are you on about mate? We haven’t got any assets to strip!!!!!!!

Just reading the comments on that article has had me chuckling. So deluded it’s brilliant. Anyone would of thought they’d signed Harry Kane ?

Footballers are quite within their rights to say they dont want to play. Ive genuinely no problem with that. I reckon they should be placed on furlough if they dont want to though. Getting the £2.5 k or whatever it is a month might change one or two minds.This whole thing is going to get quite unsavory as its all about money for most of the stakeholders. If there is no relegation then what is the point, complete farce.

Sorry, I assumed the reference was for the story re: Norwich saying there should be no relegation. My bad.

That’s pathetic. The worst team in the league after 75% of the season in desperate attempt to save their skins and rob millions in undeserving tv cash shocker!!!!

This will be the stitch up though. It would still only be 3 down for the next few years and only 2 up to get it back to 20 teams in the PL. there is clearly a massive agenda now in the prem. self interest and greed meaning it’s all about no relegation. Only reason to resume play will be to bank the tv money. Hilarious comments from the Brighton chairman re: neutral venues affecting the integrity of the league.... obviously doing away with relegation wouldn’t do that then?integrity..?? not to mention the pending arrival of the Saudis ?

It’s been popping up for weeks this idea of promoting but not relegating. It’s what will happen IMO. In the money driven world of English football they will do whatever bring the least amount of litigation as I can’t see us restarting the season now.

We’re all different mate. It won’t be as good as what we are used to but i would rather that than nothing at all. Yes, it would raise my morale for sure. There will be plenty of people who agree with you and plenty who agree with me. But my point is valid in that if every other profession is back at work then why shouldn’t sportspeople be as well.

Sport is needed to lift morale though. If in a few months time most other professions are back at work why should sport be any different as long as it’s behind closed doors with plenty of testing carried out? You simply can’t stop the world from turning completely for 18 months or however long it takes to get a vaccine. The high risk category folks need to be shielded but the rest of us will have to start living semi normal lives again.

Newspaper circulation in general has been in decline for a few years now. Just because the sun is the best selling paper doesn’t mean many people read it. I dont think Hillsborough is the only thing they’ve done wrong there either.

Nope but he does cause me drowsiness and nausea every time I take my seat for a home game.

All of this is quite sickening. The whole situation is going to end up in a legal battle. The ELF have brought this on themselves by pandering to the cheats for fear of being sued.

This notion that they have now had a successful season and we have had a failed one is the stuff only the gas could come up with. Probably the best bit of gas logic ever.

This says everything anyone ever needs to know about the difference between us and them. Everything.

You can’t be gas mate. You are calm, considered and talk sense.
