Kaizero Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 42 minutes ago, Kaizero said: Small sidenote to the B/G discussion and the myth that they "only do well" because they play on astroturf above the artic circle, here's their full home/away record in European competition since their "return" to them for the 20/21 season: Home: 29 – 3 – 5┊107 – 30┊+77 GD Away: 8 – 11 – 17┊45 – 57┊-12 GD Total: 37 – 14 – 22┊152 – 87┊+65 GD 7 of 17 away defeats were by 2 goals or more, meaning 10 out of 17 were lost by 1 goal. Only 2 matches were lost by more than 2 goals, 0-3 against Arsenal in the 22/23 EL group stage and 0-4 against Roma in the 21/22 ECL QF. Yes, of course B/G gets some advantage from being used to their astroturf and their local climate – but how"large" of an advantage they're getting, when compared to the general "advantage" all home sides have due to simply being more familiar with their home ground than the opponents, could be discussed to death in and of itself – also, shouldn't truly "big" European teams be professional enough to do their job on any turf in any weather if their team truly was much more talented than their opponent? Last time Bodø/Glimt met a team managed by Ange Postecoglou (Celtic), they won 2-0 at home and 3-1 away, going on a 5-1 aggregate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelieveable." Had a few lengthy posts (some might call them "rants" ) about how well run B/G has been for the last 7-8 years. This truly visualizes what they've achieved by just running the club well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in the West Country TV region with the Bristol clubs not a Thames one or Herts/Becks etc. with Luton and them. Bristol games for Swindon are like us and Boro.

The Man United gig was a poisoned chalice and I won't blame anyone for failing at Sunderland. I'm not saying he's a great manager but he's not a bad one.
