Of course they aren’t worth that in todays market but unfortunately that is what that pleb Mark Ashton paid out for them at the time. In the summer of 2019 we were spunking money like it was water and almost every single big money signing we made we aren’t going to make a penny back on. It is shocking to be honest.

Probably the best single bit of business Nige has done since he has been here was getting Andi to sign a new contract last year. He is a superb player at this level IMO.

Indeed. It is history repeating itself, sadly.

The upper Lansdown should have been built with segregation in mind to be honest. Other clubs manage to do it so not sure why we can’t or why it couldn’t be explored as an option.

Fair play to them, a very decent following.

At last! Hopefully clubs over here follow suit.

Mental. It seems the powers that be are determined to drain every last bit of atmosphere left on a matchday out of football in this country.

Yes you are right pal possibly was because of that. A bit of an OTT reaction to do it for every game though IMO.

Not sure why we net off the first 10 odd rows in the Atyeo to be honest. Must be some sort of H&S bullshit reason.

So they are a big club now then? Make up your mind ?

Without wanting to sound rude but if you think getting 40 k at home doesn’t equate to you being a big well supported club than you are some what very deluded. Don’t confuse successful clubs with big clubs. Any football club that can pull 40 k through the door in the second tier is a big big club. Not many clubs in the world that play second tier football can do that.

What a fat tosser. Sooner he hangs his boots up the better! He can’t have many seasons left surely

Really really disappointing but plenty of positives to take. Naismith and Sykes both look like real quality additions and have certainly made our squad stronger. Just hoping this late goal theme doesn’t continue on for the rest of the season.

**** sake

Haha this actually made me laugh out loud ?

This for me. As i said Vyner has been given his opportunities and has blown them. As harsh as that sounds that is unfortunately football. Time for the other youngsters in that position to be given some game time and see how they get on. It would be interesting to hear Pearson’s opinions on Vyner - as others have said i get a feeling the plan was to sell him on but for what ever reason that hasn’t happened and we are somewhat lumbered with him for now.

Sorry disagree. The amount of points Vyner has cost us IMO is indefensible. He is a liability. You cannot afford to have liabilities even as squad players at this level.

Not for me. He has been given more than enough opportunities IMO.

Never would usually want to see a football club go to the wall but I genuinely hope it happens to Barcelona - i absolutely despise both them and Real.

Impressive stat. Can’t deny the passion for football up in the north east ?

Should be a decent crowd for this then!

Still short in the centre of midfield for me. Im still not fully convinced James is the answer and as we all know as great a player as William is his injury record is still very hit and miss. If we can get in a real hardworking nasty and proven centre mid then i will have a bit more hope but as things stand i cant see us finishing anywhere above lower mid-table. Such an unpredictable division though anything can happen. I’ve got full faith in Pearson to get us to where we all want to be though if given time but I think next season will be a step to far to mount a serious promotion challenge.

It’s called progress and ambition. I feel the negative posters on this thread fully represent the average apathetic Bristolian outlook on things!

It’s not just the extra 2 k seats, a new modern Atyeo with 10 cooperate boxes and say another heineken type lounge or something to mirror the lounges we have in the South stand and then it becomes a lot more financially viable. There is without doubt a need for more hospitality boxes at the stadium, the ones in the Lansdown sell out every year. I really don’t think the club would have any issues selling another 10 say every season.

Very smart. Definitely going to get a pair of those black shorts ?
