    Wells, Twine and Cornick coming on and will it make a difference? It will have to be a huge swing for us to get anything from this game unless we suddenly find a prolific goal scorer.

    But they said everything is fine, we beat Southampton remember. We can lose every game from now until the rest of the season and he’ll still be here.

    This referee is poor and he is not going by the laws by booking for deliberate and hefty fouls and TGH has been the beneficiary of bad calls.

    Max just made his usual distribution mistake and they get another chance.

    The lousy shot by McCrorie sums us up in front of goal and therein the problems lie. Immediately after a shot by Sykes goes high wide and not very handsome.

    In watching LM on the bench it almost looks as if he is looking for advice and hope from his other staff or indeed anyone capable of making positive comments which, in my books, seems to be grasping at straws that aren't available.

    He went Months ago, but it doesn’t change anything about the here and now and currently we are ****, its pathetic and JL and BT are taking the piss out of fans who pay hundreds of pounds every year to support our club not their club.

    Some home truths coming from the broadcast crew in saying that in the last 9 years in this division we have finished in the top ten only on 3 occasions. They said the supporters at Ashton Gate are baying for a contending team but will never get it because we are not good enough - how true. It was also commented that they are surprised we have survived this long at this level and we are annual contenders for the drop unless something drastic happens, but we all know that our management is not capable of putting together a squad that can win consistently. Lansdown Jr and Manning are way out of there individual comfort zones and if history serves us well the necessary pieces of the puzzle will never be found because they haven't got a clue where to look other than the cheapo inexperienced market. Shameful apathetic way to run a football club.

    RR - grow up, we were $h1t under Nige. We didn’t play badly today, just no goal threat. All the WBA fans around me said it was never a 2-0 game

    5 defeats in 6 happy clappers still backing him.

    Inver, you do realise he's a Gashead.

    As for the game, incredibly predictable.
    1st half we can stop teams playing through running and organisation.
    2nd half they go 2 up and content to let us play.......we can't.

    I bet Lansdown Senior did not employ rookies in top jobs at Hargreaves Lansdown.

    Back to your comment Redprintt on one of the broadcast crew being a gashead I had absolutely no idea but then that's the advantage you have over me by being more up on the local scene. You will be happy to know I have never met a Rovers fan in all my 50 years in Canada. :emoticon-0136-giggl I like it when our posters fill in the blanks for me due to my distance from the sources. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    To RR I say I have asked that same questions many times before and like you I can't understand how he runs BCFC in such a shambolic fashion with a team of losers who probably nod at the right time as expected.

    LM has total belief in his tactics and system.
    What he’s coming round to believe..... slowly..... that quality players are required to make his tactics and system successfull.
    He believed Tinnion and JL that we had this quality.

    Poor sod.
