Re: Prison sentence for a smoke bomb?

I need to get my PC checked - the spam filter is ok, the virus checker is working but my 'filter out gormless drivel' application seems to have stopped working. Perhaps not totally gormless drivel. It gives an insight into why some people really hate the police. Like in any group of people there wi...

Re: Beano Transfer Saga II?

http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/Bristol-Rovers-pursuit-James-Constable/story-16311628-detail/story.html According to this the improved bid was £150,000. Makes you wonder a) what the club think is acceptable and b) just how much Slumdon must have offered. £150k would be woefully inadequate. The club ...

Re: Different Teams in Different Sports

I like footy (my main club allegiances vary over time and where I live in the UK) but any other sport only interests me maybe 5% of the time (and mainly in the close season). I'm thinking of taking up golf by means of a release and some mental therapy about being addicted to footy and its failure t...

Re: Beano Transfer Saga II?

Comes down to one thing really I suppose. Does the club think they can use any transfer fee for Beano plus the wages that will be freed up to get in a better player? But that doesn't mean any new player will be a success does it. We've not got a great record with strikers have we? Who thought Smalle...

Re: Asa's on his way...

I'm another who is not too disappointed. Other than his goals mostly average at best. We should be looking for better than Asa. I still feel that his performance at Vale was so bad that he must have been ill. But if he had decided to go perhaps it really was a case of not being arsed and not trying,...

Re: Wilder IN

Not much total support for CW out there us there?
Puts even more pressure on right from the off next season. I'm not sure whether that is a good or bad thing.

Re: Wilder IN

I'm about a ||1 or ||2. So many issues we've debated over and over that never seem to be addressed. That's why I'm down from a much higher mark I get seriously peed off about the same stuff as AC &amp poss a bit more: - Throw ins. We're crap at them. Embarrassingly so at times. - Never actually ...

I don't think the injury issue is a red herring. I have not studied other club's injury lists in any detail but from time to time keep am eye on what is happening elsewhere and have not come across anything like we've had to suffer. I can't remember us ever having such a season. And no team has the ...

Re: We (Don't) Believe

Why is it that the club have been unable to spend 55% of turnover on players, whilst remaining more or less within break even? But we need to know what other costs the club is incurring, that are so significant, that we are unable to give Wilder a full budget. TBC Excellent questions. Has anyone as...

Re:

Did he mean it then? He stumbled past some wavering legs and turned himself inside out before hitting it into the bottom goal. He's hardly Messi. It's an opinion anyway, happy for you to disagree with me. He generally has no end product, sorry Baboo, it's an opinion. As for implying I am negative, ...

Re:

Alf Potter - a box of tricks between the halfway line and the edge of the penalty box. Has little end product, scored a flukey goal at Burton and hasn't done much else this season. I don't think we've missed him that much, Montano has contributed more than him. Ignoring the other bits that you said...

It is hard not to keep coming back to throw-ins and free-kicks. We're crap at taking them and have been for years.

Re:

We are a steady team, but nothing special. Which, given the resources made available throughout the season, is a serious case of under achievement. I thought we'd just about established, if that was possible, that we have about the 7th largest budget in this league and I hear that STFC have double ...
