If he really DOES know who is coming in when Clarke goes, why would he put just £100 on it? Surely it's time to go big and bet his mum's house on it? Mind you, the council won't be pleased. 1 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he knows who they've got lined up as a replacement yet lists 2 names? Not the brightest this bloke is he. Assuming he means tisdale then he's even more thick. As for Holloway I just can't see him taking a paycut from his media gigs to go back to that shambles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unan Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) In my opinion this team isn’t a million miles away. If one of the strikers can hit some form, we’ll follow. We’re at a point where formation is almost irrelevant we need some confidence. This Saturday, let’s show why we’re the superior set of fans in Bristol. Wear blue, bring a mate, and vocally get behind the team. Oxford will bring numbers, and be up for the game as if it were a derby. Oxford games have always been hard fought affairs and I suspect Saturday to be the same. Encourage that mate who’s always been tempted to come along and get behind the group. The fans (still turn up in good numbers home and away Edited October 15, 2018 by Unan 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to both games and was fortunate enough to see magnificent displays in both matches from a certain Tony Fitzpatrick, who later joined City but failed to live up to his earlier promise: St M's manager at the time did quite well for himself later. City did play St. M the following season, but it was in an earlier round (Quarter Final?) and they lost over two legs. It was 1978/79 when we beat Rovers 6-1 in the Anglo Scottish Cup - which was what the discussion was about..... @onehowie thought it was 1977/78 when we stuffed the gas 6-1 - I just pointed out that he or she was just a year out...

I guess we’ve all got a bit of ‘sad’ in us. I never went to watch Rugby at the Mem once Rovers stole it. But I go quite regularly to the Gate. I’ve no idea what’s going on but I enjoy it and it’s more social than football. I don’t go home sober. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 The stereotypical sag. Dim witted, intellectually challenged.I can't quite make out whether his strong point is Maths or English. The trouble is that its not just the few moronic fans that are deluded, its the whole club, referring to Burton as a small club as a prime example. Without knowing all of the facts I would venture that Burton has had considerable success in recent years. They have a modern stadium, they have a bright manager and overall are a well run football club on and off the pitch which is completely the opposite of the tented scrap yard in North Bristol. Burton, a small club? I would say they could learn a lot from them and should afford them a lot more respect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans (still turn up in good numbers home and away I'm still baffled as to why they actually believe this and keep spouting it. What defines being a superior set of fans? Numbers? Certainly can't be that as they've had higher crowds than us once in several decades. Vocal support? How would they know unless they attend City games? Behaviour? Hmmm, boob cricket, pitch invasions, horse punching, racist abuse.. can't be that. Loyalty? Their crowds have dipped. They may have got decent gates in non league but we shall never know what we would have got in that situation. They are hounding out the best manager they've had in years. So nope. Reputation? I guess you'll find some fans of Championship clubs that will say they prefer them to us. Most likely because whilst we regularly play and beat them, they remain a plucky underdog that they only encounter in an early round league cup game which the travelling gas army treat as a cup final. Anything else? Saggies reading this, please feel free to tell us why you think you are so superior. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
