I was diagnosed with stage 3 bowel cancer in 2020, so with COVID I had nobody with me and had to break the news to my wife over the phone, something I’ll never forget.
Fortunately I’m good, and testament to life after cancer, and there is one.
If you need a chat please PM me, I’d me more than happy to provide any advice or support if needed, as I’m well aware how difficult it must be for you as well.
All the best for the journey ahead, you will get through it.
Take a look at the comments on Bristol City Live on Facebook. As I said, I’m only reporting on what I’ve been told and the general mood amongst their fans. Maybe you should ask them.
Speaking to a Bristol City supporting friend on Facebook last night who’s local paper are running the story. They really don’t like Ashton. Main complaint seems to be he’s a “Yes” man.
My wife has been vegan since the start of 2019 after being veggie for a number of years. Despite offering to cook meat I happily chomped away at vegetarian meals she prepared and whenever I cooked I never bothered with meat. When she decided to go vegan, I went a little pale, before she told me that all the meals she had prepared over the last six months had been vegan and I didn't even know. I could happily go veggie, and my taste buds have attuned to my regular diet and more often than not I choose the veggie option on a meal out. My love of cheese would prevent me going vegan though.
Considering eyebrows were raised quite considerably when he signed. I think Wilson has turned out to be a successful edition to the squad. Certainly done enough to deserve to a longer stay.
Also have to bear in mind other factors. Harrison may want to move on for personal reasons, not everyone settles in the area etc... For what it's worth, I was told Harrison would be gone this summer a long while before the Portsmouth story.
If we are relegated I don't think Lambert will jump ship. He has took on a Herculean task in saving us and it feels he sees us as a long term project whatever happens and is certainly a good fit for what we want. He isn't a dinosaur manager nor an unproven appointment. He isn't a "Yes Man" like McCarthy and Jewell who were happy to take the heat off Evans and collect the wages or a sociopath in a tracksuit like Hurst or Keane. He has done wonders in uniting fans and players which is no mean feat when you consider his past. Eyebrows were raised by some at this appointment but I believe this is the best manager we have had in a very long time.
Out of the new signings he has the least impressive pedigree so I think people are judging him harshly and expecting him to fail. He wasn't on for long Saturday and joined the match when we were largely under the cosh, a bit of patience is needed from the supporters.
I was told from a reliable source that he had a clause in his contract regarding our position at a certain milestone into the season which meant we could get shot virtually for nothing.
