The Bard

I think she is fast becoming a big name. The exact same arguments were used against employing foreign managers. That's changed because someone started taking risks. The same will happen with female coaches. It's inevitable unless the Taliban take over

She's got more experience than Lampard, Gerrard had when they got Derby and Rangers jobs. They had limited to no experience

Dissects a game with remarkable precision and speed. Will also tell someone better known than her that they're wrong and why.

Emma Hayes hasn't managed at EFL level but Gazza has. So is Gazza a better manager?

Hope she gets to play Price. Would probably be the most one sided crowd imaginable. Said it before but if he tries some of his antics vs a younger woman he'll just look like a wife-beater.

This thread is embarrassing. The man has weaknesses obviously and he had a very poor game on Sunday. However, he clearly has something to offer just as Massengo does. The reaction to Massengo's bad games is silence whereas Bakinson gets nothing but derision. The only reason being their build and how they look when they run. Bakinson is lanky, slow to turn and unable to sprint whereas Massengo is smaller and it is a lot easier for him to get around. Bakinson can shoot and spot a pass, which I've yet to see Massengo do but Massengo is busy with a trick. Which one has scored goals and assisted for us???

Underrated player whose City career was cut short as he couldn't bear babysitting Jack Hunt anymore.

Wade Elliott. Aaron Wilbraham

FFS. My point was that we are not realistically in a position to expect to win at Sheff U. It wasn't a good performance obviously but the overreaction on this forum after every defeat is ludicrous and frankly embarrassing. There's nothing wrong with being critical but large numbers of people have no perspective. Do you actually think I consider myself to be some kind of literary giant? Of course I don't. I'm on a flipping football forum same as you.

100%. Scott is a superior player

We lost 2-0 at Sheffield Utd. Hardly a surprise was it? The amount of bedwetting about it is amazing

COD just fell over rather than chase a through ball

Baker COD Martin and Weimann need to show something.

Clueless

I played a game vs 8 on the Downs. We won 19-0. And we let up on the opposition 2nd half, taking players off so it ended up 8 v 8.

I think Bears have done similar over the years. Jon Afoa this season is both a player and coach. Players with long term injuries have been found roles whilst going through recovery process which I imagine has removed them from the salary cap.

PLAYERS WAGE BILL BRISTOL RUGBY = £7 million including marquee players and homegrown PLAYERS WAGE BILL BRISTOL CITY = £12Million according to salarysport.com

Essentially it all comes down to how you choose a motm. Players tend to go for the best player on the pitch simple but watching it becomes a more involved choice. Picking Scott is taking account of the wider scenario. Picking Bakinson is typical Sky (he did play well and scored but I couldn't see a criteria under which you'd pick him). COD played how I expect a player with his profile to play. He was good but didn't do anything out the ordinary. Think we get excited when he plays well as it's a rarity.

Yes

Genius

Priti Patel is home secretary with an agenda of self-promotion using fear of such attacks. She then plays the 'strong woman' role for the consumption of clueless Daily Mail and Daily Express readers. Part of this 'strategy' is increasing security levels when given any excuse so that our day to day lives are affected. This heightens the fear levels and allows her through the media to manage consent for whatever she wanted to do in the first place which rarely has anything to do with our actual security and well being.

I don't think they're bad apples. They're just not up to what the manager wants. They are massively overpaid for their usefullness IMO.

No. Ronaldo contributes every game. Look at the likes of Maguire and Shaw for the problem. Compare their form now to at the Euros

And to think we had such a likeable team 6 years ago most of whom are still playing at this level.
