Agree Pete why does it always seem to be home games that are moved?

Appeasement of elites with too much power, at the expense of the rest (of the pyramid) sad really. Surely the solution is they play their u21s and take their chances with the talent they have used their vast riches to acquire, often from the lower leagues.

Agree, seems a lot of pessimism about filling the allocation, win a couple of games and tickets will be in short supply. We don't have a MK dons equivalent away day and while it's a bit further Preston does allow for 4000+ fans which could make for a memorable atmosphere

I am not a theologian but I find it insanely sad that most major religions believe in the concept of a god but some will kill each other while arguing over how we get there.

What is the capacity of the away end at Bristol. I have seen a few different figures quoted online

To balance it up I saw 4 Norwich lads about 25yo say to a dad waiting to get out of car park A you got any teeth mate as all the people I have seen around here dont. He was doing it in an aggressive way and looking for him to bite and start trouble. He was a top class pri&k. Its a shame the two...

There could be something in that to an extent but America along Australia and New Zealand are probably the closest culturally to the UK as you can get. When he joined the Turkish league that may have been a factor. With regards to how moving effrcts a players ability to preform, the young lad...

Any news on extra Bristol tickets. I didn't buy mine as i was waiting for someone who has less points to be able to and they were then sold out! Any news on when the others go on sale would be great. I read the away end can hold 4500 so could be as many as 2000 more maybe?

Always been mystified by the 'earn the right to play' statement. How does that work in reality? I get training hard and showing your ready, but in reality if the team keeps winning and the manager is loyal to winning sides (which most are) it's hard to earn the right while sat on the bench and...

I know hindsight is easy but we had Binks before we spent 4m on Kitching we had Simms before we spent nearly 8m on Wright. Had that 12m been spent on one top perm and one top loan signing in the midfield where would we be! Agree Binks looks a decent player and Kitching will struggle to take his...

In fairness to Simms, I think some fans on here who were expressing understandable concerns about Wright's abilities went OTT and put it equally and unfairly at Simms door, even though he was only getting cameo appearances. Having watched Simms in pre season I never had doubts about his ability...

Looked like the Sunderland player went down a bit easy for the penalty!

Goals dont tell the whole story however. There are many forwards who aren't prolific but are vital to the team as they make up for it by excelling with other attributes. I think it's the concerns about his other attributes that are more of concern.

I didn't go looking for anything, I simply asked if there was any truth in what I had read.

Is there anything in the rumour that Dean is a mate of Robins, rather than actually a recruitment specialist?

I think you have honed in on one game to the extreme. It is a pattern of being reactive and slow when it comes to game management, over a number of seasons.

If that's the way you saw it fair enough. I personally felt they were fitness based subs and were all like for like. Are you suggesting on 71 mins he brought on Kelly for Hamer to press home our advantage while we were 'on top'? It's not just about the first game of the season, it's a pattern...

You might want to check the match report. Leciester who were losing the game made the first sub in an effort to effect the game. We then subbed 4 players like for like with the first being on 71 minutes.

Me neither I was nervous we were spending huge sums on players and was worried about Kitching for 4.5m and got a few pelters. We had 20m and our recruitment team gambled it away while solid signings (that were used to) like Lati and Binks who cost next to nothing look promising.

As he is a very reactive manager and rarely makes positive changes to make opposition managers think. My girlfriend who is no scholar of the game but has attended for the last two seasons joked, while we were under pressure for long spells in the second half, he won't change it it's not 65 mins...
