Eh? I don't think he's talking about sources or any inside knowledge. Just saying that he believes Wael is not the man for the job and hopes they will sell up. Wasn't he the one who said we were already sold?? Then it changed to we were but, Wael wanted to stay and keep a small percentage, so it feel through. Might be thinking of someone else, but it sounds like the person I was thinking of, does not like Wael and has an agenda IMO. He's just a President Club member who was mates with the old BoD clearly he's now being fed info by somebody who wants to force Wael's hand, whether that's good news for the club if it does happen is anybody's guess.

Well, as someone else has pointed out, once upon a time Dwane Sports had him in their pocket to the extent he would pick fights with posters who could see them for what they really were. Now he is biting the hand that used to feed him. One has to wonder what has happened for him to perform such a radical change of orientation?

I thought he was one of NH & TW biggest critics - never came across as mates of the previous board - perhaps 25 years or so ago.

The proof is in the pudding and after a starter of luck, and a main course of broken promises, I'm not looking forward to it.
Stay tuned for more laboured analogies.

Gasheadbatesy, What was entertaining about the football played under DC either at the end of last season or this season before he left? Bloody rubbish, the only place we were heading under DC was back where we came from. We might still go there this season but it will be the Barnsley match whereas if DC had stayed we would have been down about 4 or 5 games ago. TBH you can’t say where we would have ended up if DC had stayed, Look at all the City fans phoning Radio Bristol last season saying if the Midget stays they will go down. Must of been 95% of the fan base wanted him out. In fact I think Lansdown must have been the only person who wanted him there. They stayed up. This season they are pushing for the Play Offs. DC’s enthusiasm had gone for whatever reason and it seems to have been the right time. GC has done a good job in keeping us up but to say DC would have definitely taken us down is just speculation.

No-one knows whether we would have been down by now under DC, or whether he would have done what he'd done in previous seasons and improved in the new year. Whilst I'm a DC fan, I suspect you may be right on that point, but we really don't know. What we do know surely though is that the football was more entertaining under DC than it is under GC. The lack of decent football with GC is perhaps understandable to a point, but surely undeniable. He didn't improve after new year last season though. We were poor for a good year before DC went.

We were bottom of the league in November last season and finished mid table so the second half of the season was decent results wise.

Was he in Dwayne sports pockets though, or Hamers or Master's?? Does the information he got, originally come from Hamer or Master's? If so he could have been on the same persons side all along. Think a lot on here have the best of intentions, but it does not mean thier information was right.

Are bad run started quite a bit before the end of last season. So at must have had a fantastic middle part of the season.

I dont think we have ever been more divided at the top of the club with lots of people leaking and counter-leaking. Lots of people ITK, but pretty much all of them (the leakers, not the posters here) appear to have an agenda to the point where no one knows what the truth is or who to believe.

And against a backdrop of having sold our best player (again) in Billy Bodin.

GC hasn't said Lines has made himself unavailable. He said Lines hasn't been available to him. Big difference. Lines has played in the last two home Development games and looked perfectly fit to me. GC was talking about a period of time before that. Perhaps those Development games were to gain fitness? Who knows? I don't believe for one minute that Lines is refusing to play though, which seems to be what is being inferred.

Agreed I don't blame anyone on here. But someone high up has an agenda.

I think the lowest we got was 18th, although we were only a point above the zone with a game in hand.

You're raking up history and your view of him, rather than just looking at what he wrote on this specific post. Cool.

Interesting. Without knowing all the details of their case, one thing I can say for certain, gained through my work with schools, is that when a poorly performing school is taken over more issues often come out later. This is AFTER due diligence. I therefore have some sympathy with Bury's owner, and given their crazy recruitment in 2017 I could well believe the legacy of that could be very worrying.
