I scored a hat trick at Peasedown for Clutton Reserves. Didn't shower, quick sprint to the car and getaway!!

Gola with an orange flash along the side. Screw in studs.

I love the fact that opposition coaches never praise the opposition. Its all "we this and we that ". We outplayed them. Simple

Assist from Alex Scott yeah? Asking for a friend.....

Manning did say that he was looking forward to working with him and rated him highly

Then put it in the thread referring to ex City players.

Why is Alex Scott part of this thread?

Like it or not, this team appears to be playing for him. Whether it's something that the previous management have instilled in the team remains to be seen but it's a good habit. Coyr!

Is this the night they got shut into the East End and hammered on the way out?

Delete 'data'. Insert 'quality players'. Kinda makes sense then.

Up there with one of my favourite away games ever. Beautiful hot,sunny day. My uncle drove us to Reading and we caught the train into London. Arsenal were in transition and Supermac had a mare. Happy days

My first City hero. Legend

I think that any new coach/manager would experience a significant negative reaction given how popular NP had become. We'd turned a corner. We'd reduced the wage bill and we were still in a position where we could challenge for the play offs. What was the logical reasoning behind sacking the manager? It had to be personal. Nige was old school. Lansdown wanted 'forward thinking'. It wasn't about top 6 or playing styles. Nige didn't kiss ass. Tinnion sold his soul and spoke up for the owners. Fans no longer trust him. Manning appears to be LJ2. Fans don't want this. Until the Lansdowns admit failure and sell the fans will never believe again.

We don't have to accept anything. I don't accept that Manning is a better manager than Pearson. I don’t accept that we have a better chance of promotion under an untried, inexperienced lower division manager than under a manager who has got a team promoted to the Premier league. I don't accept that players will buy into Mannings style of play. I don't accept that the Lansdowns know how to run a football club. I don't and WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY OF THIS UNTIL STEVE LANSDOWN SELLS OUR CLUB

This. First game in 66. Season ticket holder for years until Lee Johnson. Done my time. I might have come back next season for a Pearson/investment push but that's not going to happen now. Johnsons out

Whilst I totally accept what you say Dicks had the benefit of a top class coach in Sillett who worked with the squad day to day while Dicks was more of a manager in the "old school' definition of the word. Totally agree with Cooper who took us from rock bottom though.

We've lost the best manager we've ever had. Should have been given a new contract and money to spend in January. The squad were overachieving but they played for him. Just ask a Leicester City fan why they won the Premier League. A ******* travesty

This. Absolutely. Nothing else. We had a football man managing our team. A man who'd been there, done it, bought the t-shirt and had the squad 100% behind him. He'd got the fans on side despite some bad times and had us punching above our weight whilst reducing the wage bill ...........but that wasn't enough for a clown of an owner who hasn't a clue how to run a football club and his cosseted child. Fuqing Lansdowns out!!

Do yourselves a favour. Have a fiver on us going down because there's more chance of that than top six. Utter bollox from the owners to replace Nige when they did. They don't deserve anything less than failure

The ghost of Bristol City past has come to haunt us. Same shite, different coach

Or Cannon and Ball?

Next week, how to nail a jelly to the ceiling

How far is Hitchin?

Yep.
