Hi, In reply to some of you. Mansell is now back to his best of last season and is first choice central midfielder where he is breaking up play and setting us in motion. Started off the season injured from pre season and took him a while to get his match fitness back but he is amazing to be getting ...

Hi there gulls. I haven't been on here for a long time mainly because I haven't felt it right to come on here with the mess you have found yourself in. I have found it very sad that a good club like yourselves have found yourself in this position but hopefully now you can start to turn things round....

Huxtable was without doubt the worse referee we had last season and really should be giving up the job or rather booted out of it. Terrible referees all last season but now back in the League...........the referees aren't much better!!! Good luck.

Looking from the outside I think you will have a much better season based on the Manager you now have and will be very surprised if you don't finish in the top 10. Play Offs may be just out of your reach but a lot will depend on making a good start because if you do that I can see a good season as y...

Somebody mentioned I'd be worried because Bristol City signed Ives. Not at all worried as he was your weakest link when we played you last season but maybe he just had a bad game against us. More worried when City can pay 2.5m for French striker. But in all honesty City are so many light years ahead...

Saw him in a friendly tonight at Mangotsfield and will be surprised if we sign him.Looked very light weight but quick and very much a team player.Good touches but not convinced on this showing that he is League 2 standard but if we do sign him I would love to be proved wrong.

I know its only against Cirencester Town but I see that Billy Bodin has scored a hattrick in the first 25 minutes tonight.Some who are at the game are saying he is well worth signing.

Interesting that today he has been named as one of our trialists with Myrie-Williams. So we have him and Billy Bodin on trial. Will be interesting to see if anything materialises.

Thanks for all your replies. From what i have read here I would imagine it will be 2 weeks and that will be the last we hear of it because DC is pretty ruthless on handing out contracts which is good after years of paying well over the top for rank average players. I wish you all the best for this s...

Firstly my very best wishes for a good season for you this year with all the changes taking place. I see that we have Billy Bodin on trial for 2 weeks. Would like to know your opinions on him.It has been suggested he is a wide man but i always thought he was a striker but if he was he does not appea...

Brucie, You may well be right and strangely we have not beaten either of them this season. Personally I am hoping you do us a favour Saturday and let Macclesfield sneak in!! Whatever happens there are a minimum of 1 or a maximum of 4 pressure games for us now and its going to be hell but we all know...

This is a genuine question because you started the season off with a fantastic points tally including a long winning run where you looked capable of winning the League and then went on a run of games where you probably were close to bottom of the league form and yet now when the pressure is totally ...

Best of luck Guys ...that is what you need with any take over and lots of it. Can only mention Hereford and Salisbury to name two who thought they had made the right call. At the end of the day Football is a very risky business and I don't envy you,the Supporters one bit because you are the only one...

Lets face it Bristol City play better football than us,have a better set up and better players and will be playing Championship next season. Will I be going there........like f--k I will. Really thought earlier in the season that you were welcome to Brucie and now I would think to myself..poor old E...

It seems to very rarely work out when you bring somebody in to work with the Manager particularly when the person brought in is senior to the Manager. I well remember the time when Dennis Rofe was our Manager and had initially done a good job but when results went wrong Malcolm Allison was brought i...
