Northern Red Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Been coming for a while that one, results and style of football have been going downhill for months and the fans turned on him on Saturday (the ones who hadn't already left by the time that Newport scored their third anyway). Contract was up at the end of the season in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960maaan Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 I follow some Tranmere lads on Twitter, they haven't been complimentary about the style of football and now they've fallen away from the Playoffs it was on the cards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Oil Services Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Micky Mellon would make my "Bristol City Alliterative Names X1" every day of the week (that club football takes a break for international games), alongside Gerry Gow in midfield. But will it be Albert, Trevor Tainton or Greg Goodridge wide right? Fred Ford or Big Joe Jordan (first time round) in the dugout? I don't think we've ever had a keeper for this X1 though? Of course, they would face a World X1 featuring Zinedine Zidane and Kevin Keegan. And Billy Bonds. Or Didier Deschamps, perhaps. And the Dutch maestro, Robbie Rensenbrink. It might have to be 5 - a - side ..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Oil Services Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Ok, so this is me City X1 then: 1. Frankie Fielding, Then: Micky Mellon, Gerry Gow, Albert Adomah, Chris Crowe, Leroy Lita, Sammie Szmodics, Trevor Tainton, Colin Cramb, Greg Goodridge and Ade Akinbiyi all a revolutionary 2-8 formation. With Tony Thorpe ready to come on, should Colin Cramb hit a dry spell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
