@BearsBeyondGate He would have to sell Bristol Sports which is the holding company and owns the assets. Quite a deal for 2 good claims and all the new facilities.
Even a great marketing opp! 😉

@BearsBeyondGate - great pod guys!

What do I think after Saturday? Our lack of squad depth is the reason we will fall short again. We need cover at 4 & 10 min!
Heard 2 rumours Bears up for sale and new one that so are the Robins. Is it real - does Lansdown want out? View?

@karleburford Sorry to hear that @KarleBurfordAHR - hope they turn up!

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

@BearsBeyondGate Glad they slowed down. Where do we go from here?

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

@BearsBeyondGate Half time. I know Toulouse are a great side but how many of their tries have come from our mistakes / inaccuracies. Love ambition but if you can’t pass well to a team mate for ffs - TAKE THE CONTACT and recycle. We are trying to force the impossible.

@CrootMatt Worst performance since Connaught in Jan-24. Don’t know where we go from this.

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

@BearsBeyondGate @BristolBears @BrisBeerFactory @premrugby Good job guys. Don’t know what you will make of that performance though? The event I thought was brilliant - shame about the Bears. That was almost as bad as the Connaught euro game ….. and I was there for worst Bears game I have ever seen. Small squads small results.

@johnokafor__ BJVR is the solution

@BristolBears Go well guys and bring home the W #gobears

The World at War, narrated by Laurence Olivier tells the story of WWII using dramatic film and remarkable interviews with statesmen and military leaders of the time. This Emmy award winning series, transmitted in 1973 was the most expensive factual series ever made at the time.

Amazing L1 final - great kick from @ubb to level up. Another 20 mins of this great game.
I was at the Prem Final @premrugby and this is different gravy! #UBBToulouse

@BearsBeyondGate 2/2. In the final year they pay the player as the marquee and pay them big bucks to cover the earlier years of only basic pay. Is this common practice? Are we doing it? Is it legal? #gobears

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

@BearsBeyondGate hi guys - congrats on pod 200 and note to buy a bigger memory card. 😉
One for Sherlock. There is a rumour 1 club is gaming the marquee player rules. They bring in 3/4 world class talents and for all but 1 year pay them basic. 1/2

@bbctms RIP big fella. A true gentleman and inspiration to so many. Thoughts to Gaynor & Buster.

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

@BristolBears get a great reception as the player walk in. #gobears

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

Going to be a great game tonight #bathvbears. Go well tonight @BristolBears and bring home the W!

[Dominic Somerville @dsomerville8]

@watts_mf To counter the 🛀 bench. Think it is a bold move by Pat. Time will tell……# gobears

@BristolBears @Mashatu_Reserve Go well lads! #gobears
