@BCFC_Chapz@MillwallFC Not at all bad. With Taylor at CB, Crama became first choice RB, Leonard 2nd. That left Danny with virtually no game time. He's a quality RB but divides opinions on whether he is Championship quality. I hope he moves to a good club, deserves it.
@OSIBPODMAG Was doing my top 3 and worst 3 managers the other day since 2000.
Hands down that Coppell was the worst we have ever have..signed a load of crap players, then pissed off 🤣
But I never knew why he actually left. So this will be a good listen for me. Cheers team
🎙️ Three remastered ‘A Cider With’ episodes are out now!
👊🏻 Bradley Orr: Fighting teammates on Sky & that day at Wembley
💥 David Noble: Scoring iconic City goals & playing with Gazza
😨 Keith Millen: Player to manager, and the real reason for Coppell’s departure
Lee Carsley held talks with Bristol City today. Will be in Bristol next week for more talks and tour of the hpc. Its heating up in this race to become the new gaffa! Gerrard still to come to Bristol but expected to soon. Nothing at all on Paddy. #BristolCity 👽
@HetMillwall@MillwallFC Makes sense mate. Injury hits and better players come in and replace.
Defo felt he was good enough for this level but thats with my limited watches haha..im sure a team whose just come up, or whose objectives are different to urs, will pick him up
@BCFC_Chapz@MillwallFC He’s been good but never got back in the team after an injury because we had strengthened our squad in his position. I personally feel he could still do a good job in a championship team given the opportunity. Would be a good signing for one of the newly promoted teams.
@LB23042@MillwallFC Makes sense mate. We have players in a similar bracket.
Im sure he will move to a team whose just come up, or whose objectives are slightly different to yours. I expect you to be up there again next season.
🚨 BREAKING: Middlesbrough call for Southampton to be banned from competing in the Championship play-off final:
CLUB STATEMENT:
🗣️ “The conduct at issue, namely the observation and recording of our training session ahead of a fixture of such significance, goes to the heart of sporting integrity and fair competition.
🗣️ “In these circumstances, the only appropriate response is a sporting sanction which would prevent Southampton FC from participating in the EFL Championship play-off final.
🗣️ “We remain hopeful that the EFL, as regulator, will pursue such a sanction before the Disciplinary Commission in order to protect the integrity of the game, safeguard all member clubs, and deter any attempt in the future to obtain an unfair and unlawful advantage in pursuit of promotion to the Premier League.”
@FevsFootball@FootballLeagueW I absolutely think the left side is in need of an injection of pace and ability. If we have Horvat to the right, and an exciting different style of winger on the left like a Reyes. I really think we got some good width to hurt teams.
Reyes Cleary
Barnsley 🔴⚪️🔴
Exciting right foot, left sided winger / forward who also played down the middle at West Brom Academy.
Subject to fee, #bristolcity ought to be on this. Barnsley not in as strong a position as January.

@Somethingnew223@whcallum@ShadowTheEdgyX@TheRobinsZone@BBCSounds My number 1 was Cooper mate.
Although 1 thing i will say is I am fed up of playing a 3 at the back, and Cooper would likely adopt that.
I dont think Mousinho would. Which to me is pleasing. Im sick to death of us playing with 5 defenders
@BCFC_Chapz@whcallum@ShadowTheEdgyX@TheRobinsZone@BBCSounds Okay for me. Gerrard isn't feasible even on that, if Burnley want him just Parachute Payments will enable a bigger potential budget.
Cooper would be very interesting tbh, Parker has 3 from 3 but with Parachutes, Martin £80m Wages at Southampton.
@Somethingnew223@whcallum@ShadowTheEdgyX@TheRobinsZone@BBCSounds I want this to be the case too. We all do..but if it was the case why would we be hiring someone whose done well on a low budget with low expectation?
Surely we would go for the best option with a proven record at promotions?
@whcallum@BCFC_Chapz@ShadowTheEdgyX@TheRobinsZone@BBCSounds I'm hoping whoever we appoint gets that £15m Fee Budget and furthermore a few million Net rise to the Wage Budget.
We have the headroom..with a Sporting Director in give or take we are building the structure. Mousinho with money and by our standards of the past a structure.
@ShadowTheEdgyX@TheRobinsZone@BBCSounds Frustrated by the terms. If he overperformed on a tight budget at Pompey, our board will just expect the same here. I don’t want a manager who simply has to ‘overperform’—I want one given the genuine backing and support required to make us truly compete.
@BCFC_Chapz@TheRobinsZone@BBCSounds Pompey fan here. He got us out of L1 in his first scene when one of the most successful managers in that division couldn’t
He’s kept us up twice despite our very low budget.
Hes consistently performed beyond expectations. He does a lot with small. He’s a proper manager.
@BCFC_Chapz@RobinNestBCFC I think the issue is that it’s appears at least to be premeditated and the Boro case maybe not the only one.
But if they can get away with this, we might as well mic up the visitors changing room at Ashton Gate 😂
Southampton’s spy gate raised a number of questions doesn’t it…
Their form since Eckert took over has been unreal - how much is down to spying on opponents?
How long have they been doing it?
How many teams have they spyed on?
Couldn’t beat Roy’s reds tho could they
@JIPat72@RobinNestBCFC I guess when you put it like that yes it does look bad.
In terms of their results tho I really dont think it has changed much.
Most people in pre season predictions had them in the top 6 anyways.
@BCFC_Chapz@RobinNestBCFC Immaterial. Southampton are alleged not just to have viewed training session(s) visually they are accused of using digital surveillance equipment to listen in and seek an unlawful advantage. Whether that was successful or not in my view is not the point.
So a lot of very good sources saying Ellis is in the door as SD and that Mousinho is looking the most likely
A huge summer ahead - but I would be very happy with those two in the door as long as they are given the tools to do their jobs!
What do we all reckon?
@BCFC_Chapz If you post proof of your reader at every championship ground last season I shall fully accept your factual evidence, otherwise I’ll have to sadly believe you just chat shit to push your own agenda Chapz (if that’s even your real name)?
Kind regards
Michael
@mrluvverlufkins Hi Michael,
My decibel reader has a reading that provides factual evidence. Please proceed to except the obvious and move on with your day
Best,
Chapz
