The Nest Egg Posted September 17, 2023 Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) I've just sat in Bristol Airport for six hours for a flight that ended up getting cancelled. This thread has provided much amusement through these rather lean times. So, thanks OTIB!

Another thought just come to mind - Nige seemed quite miffed over the transfer window finishing the way it did, perhaps there's been a monumental fallout & Uncle Steve has backed Nige........................................................................

Not that I'm bothered either way tbh, but SL does like an internal appointment after a bit of strife. He's gonna give Lisa an internal ?

Thank god OTIB followers aren’t representative of most City fans! At what point was Gould sh1t exactly. As far as I can see none. Jon Lansdown has frequently been lacking, less said about Mark Ashton the better and NP being classed as such shows a major lack of understanding of the situation we had for some time. In respect of Lansdown senior, not so bad at times, poor indeed in others. Cornick okay but could he better for sure. Your post seems more than a tad reductionist really.

Scroll back through threads, plenty of criticism of him (lack of engagement, poor transfer windows, etc, jumping ship, etc, etc) Jon Lansdown has frequently been lacking He’d agree in some respects, we’ve not progressed, but not gone backwards either less said about Mark Ashton the better He fulfilled a brief in many respects, accept he had (major) flaws NP being classed as such shows a major lack of understanding of the situation we had for some time. Totally agree, yet that hasn’t stopped the criticism In respect of Lansdown senior, not so bad at times, poor indeed in others. Look at where we were, look around the ground, the HPC, the upcoming plans, etc. then look up the road. Yes, he’s made mistakes, but the criticism he gets, despite bankrolling the club to the tune of many many millions is unbelievable - those wanting him to sell up should be careful what they wish for Cornick okay but could he better for sure. He puts in a shift, not the best, granted. But seriously doesn’t deserve the sh1t he gets on here. Your post seems more than a tad reductionist really. Really? Have a head wobble, read back through OTIB and reflect. Not just your views, which may be reasoned, but the whole tone. “Supporters” my ar5e Have a view, of course, but this forum is inbalanced with moaners, in my view.

Superjack Posted September 18, 2023 Report Share Posted September 18, 2023 1 hour ago, Scrumpty said: Looking through OTIB, I conclude… Ashton was sh1t Correct Gould was sh1t Nobody has said that. Quite the opposite. Alexander was sh1t Nobody really knows. Pearson was sh1t, but might not be quite as sh1t as he once was. He has never been shit, but actually, OTIB if anything, says exactly the opposite. Jon Lansdown is sh1t Jon Lansdown should be irrelevant. Sadly not. Steve Lansdown is sh1t Well. On the argument goes. Harry Cornick is sh1t OTIB generally says this. So in this case, your point stands. OTIB is wrong though. Not great, but usefull. Duck me, what a bunch of belters!
