Dynamite Red Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Hopefully they will now sell up. Both have outstayed their welcome. SL only cares about his legacy and ego, this is rapidly being tainted. In my mind the first thing a new owner can do is rename his stand to an actual club legend. Best if they both stay away from the club for the foreseeable. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is naturally going to be on the inner circle and if he isn’t, he’s not technically directing anything and lives in an echo chamber. Do you really believe that this decision isn’t just SL’s alone? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) I’m not going to go all in on Tinnion regarding this decision, as it will have been SL’s don’t be in any doubt - but I have been quietly surprised at his gradual promotions up the ladder to positions that I’m not sure his experience, talent or ability is quite qualified for…actually that sounds quite harsh, apologies Edited October 29, 2023 by Alessandro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BigAl&Toby Posted October 29, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 It’s been a long time. I took a break. So Pearson has been sacked. The Lansdowns? They couldn’t give a flying ****. Much talk about injuries affecting results. How’s about the funds that Nige raised from the sale of the family silver? And Steve, Maggie, Pula and Jnr prevented from being reinvested. Reinvested in playing assets? I’ve said it many times before. And have been laughed at. Maybe, just maybe some might start to accept it. The Lansdown family have no interest whatsoever in our football club. None whatsoever. They’ve got what they wanted. A cash cow of a stadium - Take That anyone. Surrounding freeholds as far as the eye can see. Development land at Ashton Vale. Meanwhile we, as a football club, have been well and truly ****** over. 15 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Geoff Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Surely it was Tinnion last week that suggested King shouldn't be in the team. There hasn't been much heard from Tinnion since the summer and his plan A and plan B comments. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost some respect for him when he pretended that Knight was to play alongside Scott, then 360’d to say he was to replace Scott. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 The recently departed CEO saw through it. I understand he was rather shocked at the amount of family friends with positions in the club. It’s one big cosy club. 15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noize Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Lansdown has turned this club into a Joke. Plays victim in a situation he has created, goes on about his investment and that it's "his team". He made the decisions to invest where he did! On poor players, poor contracts, and poor managers. The bloke is toxic and needs to go. Wrexham will be in the Prem before City...Years go buy and we see Bournemouth, Brighton, Brentford, Burnley, Luton, Cardiff, Swansea, Blackpool all surpass backwater Bristol City...truth is Bristol is a bigger City than all of those mentioned, and could be a huge football club with the right ownership. Pearson has worked miracles with no investment! What does Lansdown expect! I hope i see Lansdown sell the club in my lifetime, Can't stand the bloke. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shauntaylor85 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) In life there are influencers, put it that way. Apparently all is not what it seems to be with a certain someone! As I’ve said I have no axe to grind with any of our ex players, but spurs mates I have shuddered at thought of Hoddle coming back in advisory role a few years ago, legends don’t have to be at clubs in senior roles, Edu is prob where it has worked at Arsenal with Arteta. I am just saying what I hear like the rest AND we have been here before many years ago with alleged influence over DW let’s not forget! Let us also not forget the mess GJ was left with when he came in and the sort of attitude of players and staff at the time.

Davefevs Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Welcome back @BigAl&Toby. Yep, you and @Ivorguy have always given a different perspective, that has made me think further. I’m just waiting for SL to write off £200m as a goodwill / love City gesture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From things I’ve heard he’s not the lovely bloke some like to claim. Managed to worm his way back in with the Lansdowns after his abysmal spell as manager & now seemingly in charge of all football matters, not good. This is super duper true I can vouch. i used to be close to the then club secretary and she used to say he was an absolute creep/brown nose and grass towards SL. I might remember I had some cracking leaks at the time. He almost single handily persuaded SL to get rid of DW and give him a go instead. Twenty years on he might be totally different. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
