Maybe the solution is as simple as making the vaccine passport blue https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/covid-vaccine-polling-hesitancy-support-brexit-voter-leave-oxford-university/

I don’t know what all the answers are. I was just trying to make the point that it’s nonsense to talk about “going back to normal” when we are in the middle of a global pandemic. We all want ‘normal’ back, but it’s not going to happen in August. Yes, banning the unvaccinated from doing anything is one extreme of the potential responses. But just carrying on and trying to pretend it’s not happening is just as extreme the other way.

Normal??? With Bristol’s infection rate, the Blackpool game could see dozens of people get ill as a result of going to the game, a number of them ending up in hospital, as well as hundreds getting pinged, many of whom will be unable to go to work as a result. And all having to miss the next game(s). That doesn’t sound like ‘normal’ to me.

So, when do we get to hear the results of the last two pilot events, testing the impact of larger, nearer to full capacity crowds? They were the Euros final and semis - the former at least anecdotally being a true “super spreader” event. https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/england-fans-testing-positive-for-wembley-variant-soars-after-euros-final-281693/ And what will the results mean for grounds being allowed to open to full capacity at the start of the season? Both questions asked decidedly tongue in cheek: my money is that Bozo’s determination to press ahead regardless of consequences will mean that these pilots are quietly forgotten.

Looking for positives, they’ve been a bit more careful this time where they point the camera around the suspension bridge.

??? brilliant!!

I’m assuming that the reason HNM isn’t mentioned in that list is that we’ve forgotten just how young he still is, rather than anything more sinister. It’s incredible how many games he already has under his belt given his age and position. Really promising statements though from NP. Hope he lives up to it: we’ve heard similar before and it hasn’t happened. Not that I’ve any reason to doubt his commitment.

Got it in one……..R#vers recruitment policy is exposed.

Is that the film, or the first World Cup??

It’s what he does! And almost unique among narcissists in living up to his own hype! I watched a video of his best 20 goals and every one would top most players!

26th November. Exactly as requested!

It's what he does at then anyway, isn't it?

Talk about iconic City defeats usually brings up Wolves, Cardiff, Ipswich, Hull, but for me that 2nd leg was up there with the very worst experiences. Fortunately, as far as Mehew is concerned I have an alternative memory. I was at a quiz night at Eastville and Mehew was in a Rovers players team, asked who won the European Chamionships in 1960, he answered Brazil!

Showing my ignorance - but what was "that" programme?! Asking because a friend wanted to take us there and has booked a table - but not until August!! Is that programme the reason it's so hard to get a table, or a reason for not going?!

And how appropriate that we mark that milestone with a debate about grammar! ?

I'm not sure either, and you may well be right: I'm just being purely BCFC-centred!!

From a purely selfish point of view I’d rather they had a big points deduction next season.

So, essentially “maybe someone else might want to build us a stadium”. Story of their lives….and they still don’t get it ?

Generous to credit them with an IQ of more than 5…

And already the lowest points total in any division?. Struggling to think of anything they could have been worse at ?

Weirdly, his spelling of both our former managers’ names (both of which are often mis-spelt) is perfect. But he can’t manage a gas manager, or words like ‘whereas’ or ‘they’re’. He clearly is very familiar with what goes on at City!

Doesn’t that short thread pretty much sum up sagchat? Mention MTs name in a vaguely positive light: heading for a ban. Foul personal abuse and the c word: nothing.

Final paragraph is the worry. Although my feeling on it is slightly more nuanced. If Ashton is still involved then you’d worry about the recruitment. On the other hand, his track record of extracting maximum value when we sell is pretty good. I realise it’s sinful on here to suggest that he’s anything other than a complete idiot, but I wouldn’t mind if he was still involved in negotiating any sale. Just not to Ipswich!

I'm not going to argue that McInnes' track record was good, but in fairness he did have the dilemma of accommodating a fairly young Albert and a very young Bolassie into the same side.

Thanks for posting' Fantastic to see the great Terry Cooper again. Our club owes that man so much.
