In fairness he has given youth a chance, partly choice, partly necessity I agree, but he has. I think the HPC helps, the young lads training alongside the first team players.

 

You COULD also say that about Reid and Bryan under LJ……….

Another reason why Bristol City and Nige are where they are-

Worth bearing in mind that this season Nigel Pearson has reduced City's wage bill to under £20m,the lowest it's been since our first season back in the Championship in 2015/16,under Steve Cotterill/LJ. He's also spent less than Luton Town have, in his 2.5 years at the club so far

 

I imagine all clubs from the championship downwards has had to do the same after the pandemic.. its all relevant for the times we're at..
Doesn't excuse, not getting the best from the players he has....You keep harping on what a brilliant coach and manager he is...hes in his 3rd season...needs to start delivering...no more excuses..

 

countless teams have flown past us spending next to nothing, hopefully we now stop wasting millions of pounds buying ****e players, here’s hoping.

 

Bryan under Steve Cotterill was in the PFA League One Team of the Year.

 

We have; we are buying ****e players now for next to nothing

 

That was L1, though, a big difference in delivering in the Championship vs L1. I don't recall him being in that team, but likely we would have had a lot of players in it that season. However, no doubt about it, JB played the best football of his career under LJ, he's done nothing since.

 

We are linked with Mawson. How come it didn't work out for you?

Is he any good?

 

Injury issues and big wages

 

I also thought Josh Brownhill was a good buy, a good player and another we made a profit from.
In fact I would go as far as to saying that selling JB and not replacing him contributed a lot towards our tailing off and failure to make the playoffs in LJs final season.

 

He's gone to Wycombe. We didn't really want him anyway. Thanks for the info.

 

You guys must be short of a few quid? He's gone to Wycombe in league one. I know they pay pennies.

 

there is 2 or 3 teams in the division set up to be mid table teams ... the players they have are in the twilight years and done well to date ... the hope is they sneak into the top 6 or do well enough to attract potentially "high gates, [ from what may be normal ] ....

 

I thought Naismith was your best player. After his mistake, I thought he was very good.

 

Would have got more if it wasn’t that clause in his contract as well probably.

 

Very much so!

 

spot on a nail in the coffin ...because of ASHTONS GREED AT having on his CV turned it around at AG made a loss into a profit .............
