Rinkadink Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 I won't be there unfortunately, but will be watching live on the rugby pass so I hope everyone who is going makes up for the absence of that myopic shouty bloke in the Lansdown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rinkadink Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 We are Wuss' cup final but we never seem to realise it. Glad I'm not there as I'd be very miserable. How there wasn't a penalty awarded for that scrum demolition at the end I have no idea, Luke Pearce again does the dirty on Bris. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFC II Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 One thing I hate is when sides take ages to get to line outs and scrums. It's frustrating when you lose 10 minutes of a match watching a side walk towards a set piece... Bristol weren't good enough at the end of the day, that was a must win and we've somehow lost it...

Robbored Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 Just got home.... cracking game of rugby. Very exciting at times and the Bears shoulda/coulda won with but two missed penalty attempts.......both long range and both just drifting wide......shame. One thing I really liked was the music when Bears scored ‘one step beyond, ‘baggy trousers’ and ‘it must be love’ all Madness songs. Really boosted the fans and the atmosphere. There must be FA regulations as to why football clubs don’t do something similar. Shame, it really does make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively poor, didn't take our chances. Really is tight. I don't get down there for rugby as much as I should but it really is a strange atmosphere. Down by quite a few points against a relegation rival and all they care about is dancing on the screen. Very strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rinkadink Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I'm still salty. However a regular on the Wuss forum who likes his stats has put up finishing positions IF current form from the previous 5 is maintained; Exeter 81 Saracens 74 Gloucester 64 Harlequins 62 Saints 52 Bath 50 Sale 49 Bristol 46 Wasps 43 Warriors 41 Falcons 39 Tigers 38 Doubt it would happen but I would giggle and expect no relegation to arrive at the last minute. What's interesting to me is that Rugby Pass' RPI had a similar projection on form before the break (Bris were 6th then though after the Northampton win). Maybe that will cheer some up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 A win Saturday would have sealed safety- any sort of win- in practical terms, but I still think Bristol have done enough... Bear in mind that 10 points separate the bottom half and it could be a real scrap until the last 2 games- teams will take points off each other too. Still, those sides who *could* theoretically go down. 5 games left so say even 5th placed Northampton 12 points above the drop Run-in for those theoretically in a relegation scrap: Weekend of 5th-7th April 2019 5th April 2019 Sale v Harlequins 6th April 2019 Bath v Bristol (Twickenham?) Wasps v Worcester Saracens v Newcastle Leicester v Exeter 7th April 2019 Northampton v Gloucester Weekend of 12th-14th April 2019 12th April 2019 Newcastle v Leicester 13th April 2019 Worcester v Sale Gloucester v Bath Bristol v Saracens 14th April 2019 Exeter v Wasps Weekend of 26th-28th April 2019 26th April 2019 Sale v Bath 27th April 2019 Newcastle v Northampton Leicester v Bristol Wasps v Saracens 28th April 2019 Worcester v Gloucester Weekend of 3rd-5th May 2019 3rd May 2019 Bristol v Sale Harlequins v Leicester 4th May 2019 Northampton v Worcester Gloucester v Newcastle 5th May 2019 Bath v Wasps 18th May 2019- all fixtures kick off same time? Exeter v Northampton Newcastle v Bristol Leicester v Bath Worcester v Saracens Sale v Gloucester Wasps v Harlequins In reality I think it is between the bottom 4. It won't come to last game, felt Bristol were safe after that win v Gloucester, in practical terms at least. I think Bath, Sale, Northampton and maybe Wasps will move towards safety sooner if not later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 11 hours ago, Super said: Can you see 2 wins out of those games? We are capable of winning each one. But also capable of losing each one. It's the nature of the league. I think we'll win at Twickenham. But lose at Newcastle for example. The quicker Charles Piatau is back the better. We certainly missed him last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted March 28, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 People complain about mistakes made by Bristol City / Bristol Sport, but La Rochelle may have topped the scale, they didn't send the tickets over for Bristol supporters for this Saturdays game So all Bristol supporters have to queue up to collect their tickets from outside the ground in France Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don;t understand why they didn't just email print-at-home tickets or even post them. Much easier and what someone I work with did weeks ago when tickets first came out.
