Re: Pack to play for Bristol City

Do we know what was up with Billy Jones for the second half?
Had a chat with Yatesy and then seemed to disappear and hence did not come on for CBB when he went off.

Re: "I can't let games pass me by anymore"

A mate of mine said at the start of last season. I would put money on Jermaine being the most fouled player in League Two this season. From having been at every home game last season, I'm fairly sure he would have won his money. It's very hard to beat players and get crosses in if every team double...

Re: Another profitable season

Ward's argument is that a long list of injured players when included as part of a wage cap, means that teams cannot bring in additional cover. Are Rovers unfortunate to have a long list of injuries, or do they not have a physio up to anywhere near the standard of Weso? All praise to Ian Weston. Che...

Re: New Striker

Terry Gornell is a talented player with clever movement and he is a decent finisher.

This appeared to affect his ...
