I mean even if you didnt know anything whatsoever about the history of BRFC anyone with half a brain cell proof reading that should twig that couldnt possibly be correct. As I said in response to Paul reporting no pies in the Riverside for the first time ever, no-one gives the shiniest shit down there.

Spend the least money possible and finish 21st would be the ideal season for Pasha. Dont suppose the owners are that bothered either way. They might care if we lose the £8m p.a. Championship TV money though.

Im going to buy you and Exiled one of those "Pears" mugs for Christmas.

It's cheaper.

Lol. That'll be the team that's won 5 on the bounce you're on about.

Unnecessarily abrasive. Why arent you having a go at people ridiculously blaming Pears for the defeat today? Hedges is shit. At least Im consistent in my view and dont change my mind back and forwards every 5 mins whenever someone has a couple of ok games. But if you like him at CB or anywhere else for that matter, knock yourself out - it's a game of opinions.

If it was at the other end and the ref gave it you'd be calling the ref every name under the sun and saying the contact was too minimal.

Was watching it on TV. They were side by side and Sandrerson marginally mistimed his challenge. I thought he'd got a tiny bit of the ball in normal time. It was a pen on reviewing the replay but you see a lot worse not given when there's no VAR.

They spoke about it on Sky and concluded, probably correctly, the contact wasn't sufficient to send Gueye to ground. He should have gone to ground and given the ref a decision to make though.

Yeah that's exactly what happened.

Literally no-one gives a shit down there do they?

Useless ref gave us a relatively soft penalty although it was one after viewing the replay.

Or we would presumably have the option to buy him early then flip him for a profit.

He just goes around tripping and kicking people. Not sure how he gets away with it so often.

"Good" is somewhat of an understatement Id say as he went on to prove with Everton. Well past his best as a player by the time he joined us but still decent. Imperious at his peak, again with Everton. Would he go down as the best player never to win an England cap?

Was there an executive decision taken not to protest so as not to detract from the anniversary today? If there was I wouldnt disagree with that but hope protests in general havent gone by the wayside?

Many home fans decided to stay on for it?

But the football was shite and results were worse than Eustace. How can you like one and not the other? Both or neither surely?

Apart from that it was okay though?

Must just be me, I thought Hedges was abysmal at Bristol and whilst he didnt make any major errors today he looked exactly what he was - someone playing completely out of position. Why can't we play the young lad Atcheson, an ACTUAL centre back in that position?

Probably well before your time but you definitely wouldn't have liked Howard Kendall who was goal difference away from leading us from the equivalent of League 1 to the Premier League in successive seasons then. You wouldnt have liked it under Allardyce by the same token either? Edit: I loved it under Howard Kendall because after a very poor start it was winning football, didnt particularly like it under Sam as it was "just doing enough to survive" football.

Yep. Yet by way of comparison Mowbray who was happy to sit there and "play the game" and just sit there feathering his own nest without any pretensions of trying to succeed is generally revered. Ismael is obviously another one who's happy to play the game and at this stage he isn't popular either.

Probably got one eye on the ACN.

Sort of summed him up. The way he shimmied inside between 2 Derby players was absolutely brilliant but then he couldnt even get a shot off when within sight of goal.

Can't for the life of me understand anyone disliking Eustace. a) He was a bloody good manager for us and b) He attempted to go in to bat for the players and the good of the Club in general against the 3 stooges.
