"We"

A very small minority

Not so small I'm thinking. I've never watched such boring professional football as is being served up under Manning. ALL those sat around me yesterday thought the same. The sooner he goes the better.

I’ve always believed manning was second choice to be appointed I genuinely reckon there was a candidate above him who didn’t buy into the lands clown philosophy.

now we’re stuck with his poison 

 

 

Interesting theory. Just a personal thought or have you heard something?

We’ve actually won an Anglo-Scottish haven’t we. Before my birth but a trophy is a trophy! But with ‘fixture congestion’ being every managers buzzword I’m not sure I can see it coming back without some other reshuffling. 

We have greatcup history over our 100 plus years.

Anglo Scottish.... Glos Cup....Paint pot trophy.  Wow, makes you proud to be a City fan. Didn't we also win the Welsh cup once?

What is it exactly? What do opposing managers say to their team before they play us?

Do they say we play possession football, or high press football, or long ball football, or play it wide, or play it through the middle? 

I'd like to know what other managers see as our threat because under Manning, I can't work out the game plan. 

There are lots of analysts and junior coaches who post on here so can someone tell me what the f..k our gameplan is?

Lots of dissatisfied fans on here about Manning and the hierarchy.  I'm one of them and there is no way I can continue watching this painful output. We know the players can play well but not apparently to Mannings plan, whatever that is.

WTF, was that broadcast or did you see it in person?

Saw it myself. Hope its on the highlights.

Yes I saw that and in fairness to them Williams, Conway and Gardener-Hickman at least made some effort to come near to the fans.

And like you say Manning realised it wasn’t a great reception and scuttled off. Don’t come fist pumping when things go alright and hide when times get tough 

When Manning got back to the tunnel he looked up at SL and clapped and then gave Steve the thumbs up! Wtf was that about?

Why are we talking about crap on the Gas thread?...........Oh yes....of course.

League one???? No they wouldn't would they?

I put on another thread about him maybe losing the dressing room. So many players look frustrated at the lack of movement in the team. One things for sure, something is not right at at AG8. Saturdays game will be as much about the performance as it will be about the result. Another QPR/Shef.Wed performance will not be acceptable and it could turn toxic.

My Nan always bought Izal when we were kids, I used to dread needing a turn out whenever we visited. Could never understand how anyone would ever buy it - it never wiped anything away, just smeared it around a lot.

Unless that was due to my poor technique...

Far too much info......

Not a phrase I like to hear or one I think is correct  but several people have said  it. "He's lost the dressing room" That's game over for someone if true.

I know it's early but maybe he should go now. Do we really trust him to get the best out of Steves warchest in the summer? He looks, and his team plays, totally boring and uninspiring. The odd "where did that come from?" game has merely papered over the cracks. There is honestly no one at the club in authority who I have any respect for. They are ruining our club and new faces and new ideas are desperately needed at the top.

If he’d have brought Sykes on and he got injured we’d be moaning about poor man management. Likewise with Twine possibly getting him back in around the squad and match day was important considering he’s still new to the club. 
 

The reaction to a defeat is embarrassing after a really positive week. 
 

Would have bit your hand off for 6 points from the last 3 games. 

I don't buy into this 6 points from 3 games thinking. If yesterday had been our final game and we had needed points to secure a play off spot, would you still be saying I would have bitten your hand off to finish 7th?

This was typical Bristol City and typical Championship. Just look at who's been beating who lately. 

If I understand it right it says at the REQUEST of the police. Can the club not just refuse to move the ko time?

Totally agree Major.  You can add Roberts and Tanner to that list of players who have been criticised but we're outstanding last night.

He was still on the pitch after everyone had gone off, shaking hands and looking for friends and family in the crowd. He looked about 12 and had such a wide smile on his face. Looked like he's enjoying the opportunity here. Good luck to him.

Surely something wrong with that HPC, the place has been nothing but a disaster with injuries. 

I'm sure it's the same grass as the gate. Far more seems to go wrong at the HPC though. Might need changing the turf up there. 

Lets replace 'OH BASSO'  with 'OH LEARY'. Sort of rolls off the tongue.

Hope ......to be entertained and look forward to games for a whole season as per Cotts league one double winning season. (Yes I know, it was only league one but God it was fun). At the moment we only get the occasional 45mins of good stuff.

Expectation.......more of what we have now. Basically boring football.

I've been watching nearly 70 years and have never felt so disconnected and frustrated about the club. I've seen us in the top flight and bottom of league 3, but this football now is just a yawn fest for me.

@marmite  As already pointed out by a number of people (including someone leading the National safe standing campaign) talks have already started

The next thing is to liaise with supporters 

Interesting to hear this. I've always believed that moving the away fans from the Atyeo had been dismissed on grounds of segregation and H&S but above all, costs involved.

We need about 10 points from 16. Won’t be an issue 

Our current form makes it an issue although I think we should make it to safety.

We are building a top 2 squad in the summer and are moving on from the top 6 squad!!

Ha ha..will we then dismantle that top 2 squad at Christmas????

Would we be against it if we ever received it?
