    I'm sure Bristol City can offer more in wages.....didn't they put a £9 million pound bid in for a striker last season?

    Yes they bid for Andre Gray. They definitely have money.

    Bristol City are the next Bolton Wanderers in waiting. Hugely overspent in recent seasons, and no signs of it letting up.

    I expect a lot of money being thrown around, vast amounts of tinkering and confusion early season, and a new manager there for the following transfer window. He wasn't a popular appointment there either.

    Maybe his best move is to Leeds before he gets sacked?

    Isn't the Bristol city owner a billionaire?

    Bristol City are owned by one of Britains richest men Stephen Lansdown a self made billionaire.... he also owns Bristol Rugby - he bank rolled the Rugby team for the past 6 seasons, buying international Aviva Premiership Players to play in the Championship- out spending their rivals 100+ times ..... he is a winner in business ........ and suspect he is used to getting what he wants

    It's football. We always need a villain. Bristol City, LJ and any players he recruits who are ex of this parish, all fair game next season. Looking forward to it actually.

    Simple - he took us through a really bad spell but the club stuck with him and gave him time to turn it round - something few clubs would have done
    Then he repayed that by leaving the first chance he got
    He is now compounding that by trying to take our players from us

    whats not to hate?

    Apparently he's from Chesterfield way on and wants to come back up north. Looked good when they went up, not seen anything of him since mind. Think he's very much a Roberts type player.

    It is my considered opinion that you are giving far too much praise by saying poor

    I agree. The bloke is a complete and utter disgrace to the profession. It'll be a very quick career, his. After he gets sacked by christmas, he'll knock about the lower leagues for a couple of years before possibly going into motivational speaking or something that will suit the ***** he spouts out on a second by second basis.

    I think it's well documented from all sides that said bad spell was not just his fault. When both sides of the club got sorted (after Hammill/Long/White came in) things got better. He then got an offer after getting us to Wembley that got him closer to his family, at a club run by a billionaire that he played 200 games for in the league above. He'd have been mental to turn it down and it's all worked out nice for us both hasn't it?

    A search throws up rumours of a £2m bid from West Brom as well as sustained interest from Sunderland. I wouldn't hold your breath.
