Nail on head! Apart from Scott, no one else wants to hold/run with the ball. Scott’s run in the first half was outstanding. Not only is he the only one able to do that, no one offered anything ahead of him.

Far from a great performance, but dug deep when mattered. Points over performance all day long!

Seeing clips like this makes you remember how good our games used to be

Here’s a boring fact for you… Before my daughter was born 6 years ago as a present from work they got me and my partner a gift voucher for don gionvanni’s but it was literally just writing on a piece of paper as they had never been asked for vouchers before. When we used the voucher months later they had signs around the restaurant saying gift vouchers available on request… I like to claim that was my doing!

Yes I think they may be looking to relocate somewhere else which would be a shame as it’s a great location.

Completely agree mate. Even during lockdown when they were operating a takeaway only it was worth the drive from Whitchurch to Temple Meads on a few occasions.

Barton hasn’t seen a beating like this since his mrs refused to make him a sandwich

I don’t like this rotation stuff. It’s nice the have options but at the end of the day some are better, at this stage in their careers at least, than others. Would be harsh to drop Conway but Semenyo proved it last season and has started to again this, he is our best attacker along with Weimann. And it looks like Wells at the moment for the third spot. We know the better players currently and if all fit they should play with Martin and Conway impacting off the bench.

Just come across this thread. I’m sure Pasture has been mentioned. My favourite steak place. Lucky if you can get a booking at a decent time at any point in the near future. For Italian, Don Gionvannis opposite temple meads is my go to place. Best lasagna I’ve ever had accompanied by some amazing dauphinois potatoes. Went to Milk Bun in Clifton last week for a burger. Whilst the burger was nice, it cost £17 alone (yes that was with a double pattie). Mac n cheese was ok. Chicken strips were very nice! But having cost the best part of £60 for two burgers and two sides I won’t be going back anytime soon.

Anyone else say “Semenyo” to the tune of the lion king?

Not sure if mentioned elsewhere or even if true but I heard Kalas is out for 6 months?

This is the biggest surprise. No longer talking of Vyner needing to be replaced in the line up!

With the last two performances you’d be forgiven for forgetting we’ve got Semenyo still to come back

To a man! HNM please sign a new contract

Charles Martin won a title…

AJs career has been a huge myth, made to look better by fighting mediocre boxers. Hearn tried to big him up with his record but apart from Parker and Povetkin the rest were nobodies and has beens. Even lost to Ruiz which was literally the biggest embarrassment in heavyweight boxing. The second he thought someone with any ability he got bullied for probably 21/22 rounds over the two fights.

Interviewer: so a lack of consistency? Nige: No, they are consistently shit! Power phrasing a little but I did like that comment

The fact his “best” was at city is all you need to know! His attitude and work ethic outweighed the good he done. Might have scored a couple, but also responsible for the team having to play like we had 10 men when he was on the pitch. There is a reason why his career never peaked higher than bang average league 1 and it wasn’t his ability that was clear to see. It was everything else that went alongside it.

Christ, forgot this bloke existed already!

Westbrooke was linked with us a few seasons ago when at Coventry. When he signed for the blue few I thought that was quite a coup for them. Clearly not!

Ah, I thought he signed in the January on loan. Guessing I’m getting my seasons mixed up. Was it… Palmer loan Jan Szmodics perm summer Palmer perm summer?

He was already out of the picture by the time we signed Palmer though wasn’t he?

From memory, I could be wrong, he started most pre season games and seemed to do ok. Once the season started he didn’t get a look in. If effort in training was such an issue why did play so much in pre season? And you say clearly didn’t do enough. Was that ever confirmed?

Will never understand how he wasn’t given a chance at this club

Surely with HNM if he isn’t going to sign a contract and will run down the last year with minimal playing time then it’s best to cash in now? And I don’t mean £6m, more like £1m-£2m with a sell on fee and also saving in his wages
