@FevsFootball I reckon so. Wareham’s probably more in our price range; I feel Orient would want a minimum of £3m for Ballard and I doubt stingy Steve will sanction that. Both an obvious improvement on the wasters we currently have up top.
@stephenlansdow1 has well and truly lost the plot. What a way to further divide #BristolCity. Our current situation is all on you, nobody else. Sell or give away BCFC, the Gate and the training ground, and let someone with real ambition take the reins
Season after season after season, one thing that stands out the most: Lack of investment in the squad. We are Bristol boring City with a boring owner (@stephenlansdow1) who shows absolutely no ambition at all. #BristolCity
@bbcbristolsport Please ask:
1) 5 years ago, you said you were open to selling the club. Since then a, b and c have been sold. Why not #BristolCity?
2) Sheff Utd, recently a PL club, were sold for £100m. Are you asking too much for BCFC?
3) Will you sell BCFC separate to Bristol Sport?
@bcfcshags Football is about ambition and @stephenlansdow1 has none. He could literally give the club away for free and still be a billionaire two times over, so why not sell BCFC - not Bristol Sport - for a fair market price? Being held to ransom springs to mind

@BristolCity If we can’t make tangible progress after £35m of unplanned cash injection, when can we ever expect to? I’m sick of finances being used as an excuse. It’s mismanagement, pure and simple, and that stems from the top. Lansdowns out.
@danielstorey85 It’s no great wonder, Dan, when the common denominator is a risk-averse billionaire who’s been in charge for more than two decades, who relies on nepotism in the boardroom, and has a long line of poor managerial choices in his rinse-and-repeat approach. #BristolCity
We are pretty much 50 games and 10 million quid in under Manning yet we are lower in the league than when he came in, dull to watch, not scoring enough, defensively weaker and the pathway from the academy has been shut off. Struggling to believe in this process
