    No shock and horror.
    Players managers offered huge wages elsewhere.
    This is life following BFC , its always been like this.
    Not renewed season ticket since 2019 .
    Doesn't fill you with inspiration to renew.
    Plenty of good coaches out there.
    I did think Duffy was here for the long term as he pointed out.
    However back to reality ,money talks.

    Deal took long enough. I wonder how long it will take Swansea now.

    Always knew Duff would be poached. Nowt against him but you don't take the job and leave your family in the Cotswolds if you want to be shoveling coal for a living.

    He's still shovelling coal, just nearly the same distance in the opposite direction

    Be interesting to see how it works out at Swansea for Duff as going from a style of football that was all about possession and playing out from the back to a team that will be happy to let the other team have the majority of possession. Considering the championship is going to be a much tougher league to implement compared to playing it at league one level.

    If we knew how to use the ball we wouldn't have been out on our feet at the end of the Play-Off Final.

    It’s almost the complete opposite direction to what we did after Val. The one thing that Duff and Swansea have going for them though, is that unlike the coaches we appointed at that time, Duff is competent.

    If he's not top 8 by Xmas, they'll bin him. He might get lucky as, Bristol City will probably be getting rid of Pearson around the same time.

    I think he will do well. He’s an outstanding tactician, communicator and motivator.

    We played over an hour with 10 men SD, in 90 degree heat. We were bound to be out on our feet

    Michael Duff has turned the club around. I wish him all the best.
