    A number of their fans and the commentators on yesterdays game have said they play better against the better teams in this league and I’m just relaying that. Not a hypocrite in the slightest.

    You claimed it yourself ffs, before the commentary ... what a hypocrite.

    "They seem to raise their game against the better sides in this league and with Joey Barton as well, this game definitely has a bit of edge. Can see a disappointing 1-1 draw."

    They should have been allowed a full house in as far as I’m concerned.

    The old and vulnerable are vaccinated, yet we are still suppressed.

    And people snitching to the controlling authorities are just as bad, if not worse than them.

    They're openly breaking the law.

    'Snitching' is doing something behind someone's back ...

    ... I've openly reported it with my name and contact details.

    If you think that's worse than breaking the law, and risking lives, you're an idiot.

    The EFL need to get a grip, this clown could be in prison soon ...

    ... no wonder football gets a bad name.



    Joey Barton emerges as favourite for Championship job

    Despite losing to Sunderland in League One on Saturday, Joey Barton is still odds on favourite to take the vacant Preston North End job.

    The Bristol Rovers boss has been in the job for little more than a month, but speculation has emerged that he is the favourite to replace Alex Neil at Deepdale.

    I just listened to Johnson being interviewed by Nick Barnes after the game on the Radio Newcastle Sunderland podcast and he commented how difficult a game it was and it was quite lively for a game with "supposedly with no fans in"

    Whilst the police are here, perhaps they can investigate your recent attempt to break Covid rules.

    Prior to our cup final a couple weeks ago, you wrote....

    “I tried all of my contacts for a place in the ground, and drew a total blank”

    It typifies everything that’s wrong with people in this country right now.

    Don’t mind breaking the rules when it suits them, but go screaming to the authorities when they see somebody else doing the same thing.

    Embarrising.

    I'd have only have been allowed in the ground as an official guest of the club ...

    ... never likely to happen.

    The fact I wasn't allowed is a credit to SAFC.

    I'm not 'screaming' to anyone as you hysterically put it. I've reported what I, and Lee Johnson, saw.

    Would you be so obviously pleased with yourself if the club has another enforced break because of a Covid situation as a result of yesterday?

    You are not an employee of the club, or a director. Your a supporter, and by law you are not allowed at the match.

    Yet despite this, you clearly attempted to break those rules, involving flying from France, potentially bringing Covid with you.

    In your mind, your actions were totally justified.

    Yet you think you identify some Bristol rovers fans in the stadium yesterday... and you contact the police.

    Hypocrisy at its very finest.

    You were responding to someone who constantly slags players off including Gooch.
    I was just saying I'm very happy with who plays because of the results we are getting. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    So Kyrill’s other half is now an employee? What’s her role?

    It's up to the police to decide what the situation was, not me ...

    ... I've just reported what I've seen.

    If I'd been authorised by the club to attend that's acceptable, if everyone at the game yesterday is likewise there's no problem.

    You don't have to be an employee, the club were allowed 18 places at Wembley, not everyone falls into your categories including the owners girlfriend.

    If I'd been allowed to fly I'd have needed to be tested and vaccinated which is the case. I'd have been more throughly checked than some of the people in the ground yesterday.

    I don't believe everyone present yesterday had a right to be there and neither does Johnson ...


    "And I'm not sure how many were in the crowd today, but it sounded like there were 60 or 70 from Bristol - it was quite lively for a game with no fans, supposedly!"

    Her role is the other half of the owner of our club, and has every right to be at the ground.

    Why would the club authorise you to go?

    Your a supporter.

    Just like the people you have contacted the police about.

    I've had quite a bit of help from the club over the years and have been a guest at both Roker Park and the SOL. I have contact details for people there and have been called upon to assist with certain things.

    That's why.

    What have you been called upon to assist the club with then?

    That's none of your business tbh.

    The latest contact was to be invited on the cup final Zoom thingy with Frankie & Danny which was great fun ...

    ... a real insight into how it all works behind the scenes and talk to the players.

    Her role <laugh>
