Also be nice to hear from BT for once, all very quiet now.

He’ll be hibernating in the woodpile this time of year. 
 

Only post match I want to see at this point is the infamous corner flag picture accompanying an announcement.

Weird one considering I want Manning gone soon. Clamoring over mediocrity is crazy to me when clubs in far worse positions than us eclipse what we've spent 3 years building in 4 months.

Well I don’t really see a “clamouring”.  I do see people mournfully acknowledging the progress and togetherness that we’ve lost, in contrast to this shit show.  
 

A change of approach has worked for QPR. It hasn’t for us for the last 4? Managers
 

I can see why Pearson was binned mind,  I’m not immune to the various reasons and factors that led to the decision.

A counterpoint to the Pearson clamoring again with a point I've made in many threads today. QPR were dead-set for 24th under Ainsworth; since Cifuentes has joined (22 games I think now) they're now 10th in the form table a side who were in dire straights far far worse a position than we have ever been since we got promoted to the championship. We are lucky Cifuentes wanted to wait a little and finish things in Sweden rather than moving straight to QPR at the start of the season. They've just beaten Leicester and likely they'll be fighting for playoffs next season with the right signings. It took him 4 months not the 3 years it took Pearson and we are still no closer to the playoffs. Why do we settle for such mediocrity? Pearson was mediocre and he's exclaimed like a hero around here I just truly don't get it.

Here’s one for your list @joe jordans teeth

Behave. 
 

it can’t be ruled out, but they’ll pick up a win or two which will be enough amongst a smattering of draws.

daddy has taken him out of the firing line before - so there is precedent

Because Jon Lansdown is Chairman & what he knows about running a football club you could fit on the head of a pin.

But player fitness and conditioning though, leader in the field /d

He’s not an owner?

We had that before you came in you utter cockwomble.  

Lansdown, Downsey, "#making Bristol proud"

"Player Pathway", 7 on the sodding bench 
O’Neils kit, shocking badge, can not stock it anyway, 
On the grass, JL no class, Nigel Pearson is our ex
FFP – blown away, what else do I have to say?

That probably wasn’t worth the time it took me

Manning didn’t start the fire, it was always burning since Tinnions been gurning

Send the ******* League 1 mood hoover back to where he came from.

“Mood hoover”. Love that! 

Just now, ChippenhamRed said:

It’s always been overhyped as a derby I think. The fact that the fixture almost never sells out tells you how much it really matters.

Behave.  Up until the early naughties nothing had an edge like this one. The centre took on an almost oppressive air to it. 
 

Post rebrand, yeah, it’s certainly not what it was.

7 subs, **** me.

So no one else good enough to be on the bench?

What a pathway..

And 4 of those are forwards? Highlights the paper thin squad I guess

Nothing!

That’s mad, where I am it looks like a alpine scene (made for a lovely dog walk, ruined my days plans though) 

Train home doesn’t really work tomorrow, so park and peasant it is.  

Every school seems to have them now. 
 

My assumption is that most grass roots clubs will look to develop facilities like this as a way of raising income (potentially).  This has two obvious flaws in that 1) it leaves them at risk of chancers looking to use the club as a vehicle to make money and 2) it probably needs grass pitches to be sold off to raise the funds.

Everything I heard tells me he is reading this forum at length.  Almost aimed some comments as direct responses. 

 

 

 

After the defeat on Saturday, one of the inner circle was browsing.  Fair play for using their account rather than hiding I guess. 

Stupid question, but are you logged in?

Quite nasty and ridiculous approach by Bcc. We live equidistant between Bath and Bristol. The Bus Gate system designed to rip off the motorist and make travel difficult means that we will no longer spend our money in Bristol. The soulless shopping centres and miserable environment combined with its illogical approach to road systems is a deathknell for its commercial and trading centre. The stupid Cumberland Road isolation of Spike island and the confused traffic routes around Baldwin street are key examples of planning by dead heads.

 

As Bristol has got harder to get to and park in, the less I’ve visited. 
 

I used to work in Redland and would easily put a few hundred into the local economy a month, but traffic got progressively worse.  So I got a job elsewhere.  
 

I’d rather go out locally or into Bath now - equally a ball ache for traffic, but it’s station is an actually continently placed. 

I avoid that cess pit.  However, some of the City stuff on Facebook (equally a cess pit) is ******* bonkers.,

Is that Manning and Hogg and the bar with their back to him?

No doubt asking for tap water. 

As mentioned, Charlton would be a very good bet though like Reading, carrying a fair amount of liability? But by that token, few clubs probably are without a significant debt.
