An extremely damning hour or so of radio. For Owers and JP to speak so frankly and bleakly about the state of affairs at AG suggests there are very serious issues at the club.

Maybe GJ will finally bare his bum in Burton’s window as a tribute 

5-8 points. Proper depressing end to the season.

Not renewing your ST is the ONLY protest they’ll take notice of.

Booing at FT, chanting about NP, or the odd hastily scrawled bedsheet is easily ignored.

I was open to giving LM a chance after the decent wins against Watford and Saints, despite some poor performances in between  and since, but it’s just so bad now. 
 

I don’t care about mannerisms, tone, or buzz-words. I just care that he’s talking bollocks.

He was arguably the best centre back in europe last year. 

Nah, he was just winding us up apparently. “Whoosh”, etc.

To play for Wales, aside from being a native, your parent or grandparents can be Welsh or failing that, you just have to have had a dump in one of the service stations on the Welsh stretch of the M4.

probably count most City fans in then

Always shit on the Weeeeeelsh side of the bridge

Ben White has asked not to be considered for the squad.

Not sure what the issue is with him, allegedly fell out with one of the coaching staff at the WC and was sent home and now this.

I don’t rate Stones  

You must be having a laugh, he’d be my third pick for the squad after Kane and Bellingham.

This is also a good one.

Delighted to see Scott and Semenyo thriving in the Premier League

‪I’m gonna grab a ST so we can sell Conway to Burnley and a club that get less than half our attendances can fire themselves back into the Prem next season, would love to see Tommy doing it in the Prem.

My gut feel is we'll be hundreds down on sales not thousands, but down nevertheless.

Agree, not a chance in hell will there be an increase in ST sales.

Aw they want a little trophy to show at the 'HPC' isn't that cute

Well if we end up relegated maybe we’ll win the EFL trophy a couple of times and get to take it home for keeps.

All credit to BBC Bristol, I thought they dropped off a lot when Twentyman left, but they’re slowly improving and making up for his absence, the questions were insightful and probing without being needlessly provocative.

How long has Brian been at our football club?

Multiply the number of goals we scored against Southampton by ten.

Just now, The Coach said:

“We plan really well in January to sign players. We got Stokes from Aldershot, we got Palmer Holden coming back, along with U18s. We will sign one or two this summer.”

One or two to replace TC and Pring would still leave us with a squad that doesn’t suit Mannings style, how else do they propose to fix that? You can’t re-coach an already developed player over a summer.

this is a PR disaster 

Just now, The Coach said:

“Manning is learning, young coach. Some really good results and some not good. We are happy with how things are going.”

He’s ******* deluded.

If the interviewer doesn’t press him hard on the disparity between the expectations *that the club hierarchy set* and the result, they’re not fit to work for the BBC. 

Just now, The Coach said:

“One of the best academies in the country”  according to Tinnion.

 

Have they told Liam Manning?

I have no confidence that this will be anything but a BBC Bristol “puff piece” for the benefit of BT.

One positive is I’ve rarely been so confident of us holding on to a 1-0 lead in recent seasons, but mainly because Swansea have been pretty hopeless

Phew, got away with one there.

Odds on Manning saying " it's been coming" if we win?

I’m not sure he’d have the nerve !
