His one the other day which on the surface was about a football stadium that's never been built in Lithuania, but in reality the video was about Lithuania's political history for the last 30 years. Highly recommended, he does some cracking stuff, he has good insight and is fair 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pippintogg Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I think this pretty much sums everything up. We just accept the mediocrity and start again in August. The blame firmly sits with the owners. Fed up like many people. Solution, not an easy one as no foreign investor will want to buy Bristol Sport. It's hard enough finding investors for a football club! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not as painful as being taken for an idiot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texted me today as it's 14 years since Bristol City 2-2 Newcastle (Maynard screamer). I had a look at the BBC match report from the time: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_1/8572371.stm And I had a look at the table: We're 1 point better off today, and 2 places better off. Some progress in 14 years. So depressing. Just looking at Scunthorpe there is a real reminder of how bad things have been for others 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weather hasn’t improved much, but our league average attainment thankfully has. Was the football perhaps more entertaining though? That feels important to me.

Bernard Lerring Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 21 hours ago, 22A said: Look on the bright side Constant midtable = no major fear of relegation for us fans. No need to pay out bonusses and increased salaries if we were promoted for the board to consider. We might not be too happy, but we remain what Rovers would like to be. Not a dig at you personally mate, but i hear a lot of fans who seem happy just to be doing better than rovers. That's a depressing benchmark, as being better than a shite team, can still mean that you're shite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
