Unfortunately my social secretary already has my schedule plotted over that weekend, so I am really disappointed that I can't pop down from Perth for ...

@deleriad I agree Delerad. We should be saving our money eyvro invest in players qe want as a permanent signing and otherwise make use of our own a...

Good and informative post Bob and I think that old maxim is one we have collectively espoused in this forum over the years. Let them develop in your...

Excellent opening piece OFB with plenty of crackling puns and a fountain of useful insight into Bristol's current form. I expect there will be a bu...

@forever-dormo How about India Pale Ale?

@lenmasterman In my time there were still a couple of "pitches" parallel to the boundary of Clairville Stadium. I put the word in quotes because th...

Probably not Ken. Clairville Stadium only opened in 1963. I recall watching the red helicopter carrying the Duke of Edinburgh to open it flying over...

Just caught up on a lot of reading. Lots of great posts to follow AndyR's quality starter for 10. I didn't get to see our ghoulish performance on Sa...

Chocolate... The thing with me and chocolate is that if there is none in the house, I have no need for it. However, the moment it is there, I can't ...

The one good thing about the Boro for the most part this season is that the bar of my expectation is not set especially high. For sure I always hope ...

I have made up and sent your resumé to SG Martin. I trust in you not to make a mess of the forthcoming interview 😉

Boom boom 💥

I see your cunning ploy there Martin, to get me to go back and read your post again to see what nuance I missed first time!! 😉

@malcolm at 3.48 this afternoon Quite right.

I'm whole heartedly in agreement with you KP... and I tend to use the thumbs up to acknowledge a post rather than as endorsement of what it might say

Don't be so negative KP 😉🤭

@forever-dormo - at 11.28 this morning. Brilliant FD, and topical on multiple levels. Great writing.

To be honest, I don't think that the Woodgate appointment is necessarily that bad. He didn't cut it as the main man, but he had been doing good coachi...

Or an opportunity to push Giles up and have Bola play at full back ?

Ditto 🤣

Being previously a top player is itself no guarantee that you will make a good manager. In Scotland Gerard would have had to be particularly ineffec...

I am beginning to wonder if SG is giving Leo enough time to prove if he could be the man for the job and all this talk of Michael Carrick is no more t...

Perhaps SG was waiting for LT to become available to be mentor our would-be first time leader .....

If Carrick is at the game tonight, can I review my previous dissertation ("Three nil Wigan") ? With players out to impress a new boss we might witne...

@deleriad I agree Deleriad, that I do not have the opinion Carrick is the wrong choice. I mentioned previously that we can't know until well afte...

@pedro Nah. That just doesn't add up Pedro 😉

@lenmasterman So superbly expressed Len. I think that between you, AndyR and yourself, you capture mist of what most of us are feeling about the ...

Re the thought of Bruce Jnr. to assist Carrick..... I suppose at the end of the day I don't suspect any of us have any idea about his qualities and ...

Thanks for the raw honesty Bob - another good opening for the the match thread. I can get as far as posting three words for this on, Three nil Wigan
