ProfitInMyPocket Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Why are we complaining, it's his club. Think my username seems more relevant than ever, should change it to nest egg! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmite Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 I think Steve always intended to ease back and let Jon take the reigns in the long term. He now sees that Jon is not suitable and not interested in taking over so it's on to plan B. Problem is, there is no plan B. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 5 Things I would like to say to our owner...(I could list 100) 1. Steve Lansdown is a legend at Bristol City 2. Steve Lansdown redeveloped Ashton Gate. It's amazing now (for home fans) 3. Steve Lansdown should have never appointed Brian Tinnion as Manager 4. Steve Lansdown - Coppell saw how you ran the club in a few weeks and walked because of that! 5. Steve Lansdown - Give NP the required funds NOW so we have cover at GK, CB & CF (not big money required) 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Dante Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Well I for one am grateful that someone has brought this subject up to allow it to be a topic of discussion. I can’t recall any threads that looked at SLs stewardship and funding of the club/players in the last 24 hours. Bravo! 7 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAWS Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Treated us with contempt. It's always been a case of 'it's my ball & I'm taking it home' Just one big ego trip. Owes us an apology for his condescending statement after Holden appointment. 'If the supporters can't see what we're trying to do I feel sorry for them'. Perhaps you should take heed of people that actually are knowledgeable about football Steve!? 3 1 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) We have a well earned reputation in football as a perennial under achiever. Always happy with mid table mediocrity and flitting between league 1 and the Chanpionship . Won bugger all and try to win bugger all . It’s time for a change without a doubt and it’ll be complicated and drawn out I’m sure but our board are utterly anonymous. Steve Lansdown disappeared a couple of years ago and it seems his Son has now done likewise . Zero communication just as a few years ago when most of us had no idea Keith Dawe was Chairman and even less idea who he was ! Our board is stagnant and it has lead to a stagnant squad too .

eardun Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 11 minutes ago, Mr Popodopolous said: The rules have changed even further, for such a takeover to get going you need a strong amount of headroom.. Newcastle had a lot at home of takeover, Man City well FFP wasn't quite in existence yet. We will have a lot in a year's time, perhaps even now. This will be one factor that makes us more attractive to prospective investors. Makes sense. Lansdown has said he’d like to sell the club or at least have more outside investment. So doesn’t it make sense that by not splashing the cash at the moment, he makes City more attractive to investors? So I don’t see the logic of those who say he should spend millions now AND sell the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRoss Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Oh no.. think we're heading for a new cringey period of painted bedsheet banners outside Ashton Gate but now with SL.

Pocket £25 million, sure you not thought that perhaps that payments could be staged over 5 years or conditional on Alex recovering from injury or based upon appearances, so no he will not be just pocketing the money, but fortunately he's not in a financial position where he needs it 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeside Red Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 I think one reason we aren’t getting any communication from the Lansdowns is they know the fan base is unhappy so there trying to make Nigel the scapegoat when it all goes tits up 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the same if SL decided to call it a day and the same goes for many Championship clubs..we would be fine this season but without a new investor or buyer??
