  1. The stream can have issues but usually it’s pretty decent. (In the USA at least) There are so many more problems with people at the BBC/BCFC forgetting/Not connecting the audio commentary. I’m not always in a position to watch like many, but pretty Much always in a position to listen and having been subject to some vision issues a while back am a bit sensitive to this. The biggest complaint to the provider is the non connection of the audio. I did ask for the match day hotline address for the visual and audio to be pinned once but to no avail. I know there is one IF someone has it on hand perhaps they could answer this post with it. First game of the season often gets effed up!
  2. Yes I mentioned this on a FB post. We don’t know yet how poor the opposition really are yet. Time will tell. But you can only beat what’s in front of you and I’m confident NP asked for teams to put out crap for us to play. Or maybe not!
  3. Im probably being a bit thick here, but here goes anyway, who was Mr Pearson talking about when he mentioned Bournemouth away friendly last season.
  4. He was a good player for us! But it is just banter. Pack will expect it be sure of that!
  5. I do smile when people talk in terms of what price we should sell at and what WE could make. There is only, as usual, one person who matters in what value a player has. In this instance that fella has made it publicly clear. If something should change or the kid gets injured then I know a lot will say see told you so, however by and large the same people will moan about selling our best players and on the field failure. It looks like the boy will start with us, but September 1st is a long long way off!
  6. I think you’ve nailed it fella! Bentley The Robin! A nice ring!
  7. A thread for the LJ Sub forum! But no one listens to me!!
  8. The Premier League was the catalyst to everything that has happened with money in football for 30 years. The idea in essence to maximize revenue in football at the top. In of itself not a bad idea if you are ever dumb enough to have faith in trickle down economics. However it has lead to where we are now. I read some stuff about super rich owners. One of the trailblazers of that was our own bloke but let’s brush over that for now. Once global money was pouring to the FA Premier League, by the early 2000s, the other major leagues had to follow to compete. This was then coupled with rich Americans buying clubs loading them with debt and eventually selling them on, which has been exacerbated by a consistently low pound. The fact now is the Saudi’s and various other despots with oodles of money, are copying the Russian oligarch model (the sag not withstanding) and they want a piece of the action. These guys unlike the septics don’t care about profit, they want glory. (My god some Ruskie got a life peerage) Race horse ownership is pas-see if you want influence it’s football you need to be in (If a **** club like derby can have questions asked in parliament and it’s tax debt forgiven or Wrexham can get government funding of 25m etc etc etc I can’t even imagine the influence you create for yourself at Man C or Newcastle) The west is a slave to capitalism and as such bows to its love of money and no one cares from where it arrives. That’s no surprise to The Arabs, China The Russians et al!
  9. I’m hoping Scott starts the season with us at least now. The issue will be, who in the Premier League and for that matter German and even Italian, French and Spanish leagues needs to spend some money. The end of the transfer window is a way off yet. If the kid starts well and we look decent for the few weeks after the first game then any number of things may happen.
  10. Excellent. A shame about Alex for them!
  11. I think we will be competitive. If you can maintain the competition of the squad and on match day anything can happen over a season. Predictions in the most part are just the nature of the off season. People are bored and no one remembers anyway! I’ll just remain (very) hopeful!
  12. This is the injury thread and BCFCGav has been tasked one way or another with keeping score. However I sometimes/often share your frustration with some on this forum. !
  13. For the love of all that is holy can the season start Shit shirts Shit Merch Shit designs shit website shit SLO Data breaches, second rate signings compared to <insert teams here> and yet we can not stop scoring goals. No wonder we keep failing as a club!
  14. The first post stated that was exactly what they were thinking of doing. The videos up the thread were interesting. A crime and suing people are pretty mutually exclusive. A case like this will be brought at some point. Cash is obviously not king anymore in Swansea. ?
  15. My old man used to go on about it, but was never quite sure if it was true.
  16. Behavioral Finance/Economics has been around for a good while. Thaler finally got the Nobel Economics gong in 2017 for his work on it. The point being suggestion is everywhere and now we are all on these things tapping keys that will lead us to places that tell you what you want. How you settle up is not the problem! On another note, it looks to me as though the bloke from Swansea can’t be sued! I’d love to watch them bring that case, although a business will eventually!
  17. Massengo has turned up since PNE away 18 months ago! Got paid mind you!
  18. That’s funny. And yet!
  19. Triffic Outsourced website fails immediately.
  20. Nor can I. WTF is going on!? Tenant '[BS] [Afrozaar] [PRD]' is disabled What does this even mean.
  21. Great player. I think he had a trial at City before going to Birmingham as a kid. I’m sure one of the old boys can confirm or deny that?! I believe this was a heart attack. Lost a few friends over the years to that. Remember TF was as fit as it gets! All of you in your 60s that smoked, drank and had a liking for fried food get checked out. It’s the best advice you’ll get today! RIP Trevor. I once saw you carry a terrible England team single handedly. You will be missed.
  22. I personally am always complementary about Moore and have been again in another current thread The comment quoted was in respect of the general transfer policy in operation at the time, from another poster, and was a paraphrased quote as what Engvals name was. Splinter in honour of a current poster. But brushing over that… I am intrigued by your comment that Engval was childish while he was at City. Any anecdotes?
  23. Quality stuff! Fatty Wedlock is starting at Portsmouth next week I’m told! You heard it here first
