Basically "the man in the know" changed his pseudonym and gas location (how original) when his bold "agent provocateur" predictions were seen to be false? Upwardly mobile via Forum pseudonyms . Forums - sad aren't they? Personality defect? Could it be that he was being fed little porkys by someone in the club, either deliberate misinformation or to see how much he was daft enough to repeat?

The certainty of his predictions were amazing. His cup runneth over with stadium optimism. His feline posture with dark glases gave re-assurance than he was a finer sleuth than Eddie Shoestring. Our collective scepticism was wholly unjustified. He had more scoops than BEP in their history.
BTW - He runs a computer shop in Westbury upon Trym doesn't he? Or is that now Henleaze / Southmead / Filton / Patchway?

The 'if you can't buy the club don't have an opinion' argument is hilarious! If you don't attempt to be a Member of Parliament don't bother voting. No it's worse than that - it's actually along the lines of 'if you're not a Member of the Government then you don't have the right to criticise the government'. It sometimes seems as if the definition of Unity by some is similar to that used in Eastern Europe before the fall of the Berlin Wall. In the meantime I've found the Agenda. Item 1. Approval of previous minutes. Item 2. Did anyone bring any biscuits? Item 3. Send someone down to the shops to buy some biscuits (re: negative response to item 2). Item 4. Long ramble from elderly attendee about how biscuits were better in the old days. Item 5. Election of Officers; open position for biscuit procurement secretary. Item 6. Action points; ensure all members take responsibility for maintaining meeting biscuit equilibrium. Item 7. Any other Business. Item 8. Date of next meeting. Its worse than that. Its, if you're not a member of the house of lords, you can't criticise the government. If you'd not on the board of tesco, you can't say that you don't like thier baked beans. If you're not in a boy band, you can't say that one direction are s***e

unity is the key? the good news is the team appear to have unity but the supporters clearly dont,,ive noticed that home and away this season and even more so here on the "ultra negative forum" but were not alone bigger clubs than ours have issues with support ie newcastle utd,aston villa,etc
its a well meaning thread but not really the right place for it im afraid

Or is that now Henleaze / Southmead / Filton / Patchway? TBF nothing has actually been decided yet. Either way, he ain't the first to post bulls**t on this forum and he certainly won't be the last. His positivity might go against the grain on here but do you really have to get so personal?

As the great leader Philip II, king of Macedon once said "Divide & Conquer" comes to mind The fanbase is divided, always has been. Everyone wants the team to do well but there are 3 groups. 1. Those who know that the club has been mismanaged and criticise this mismanagement. 2. Those who think it's just pure bad luck that we are where we are. 3. Those who don't care and just want to watch football. What exactly does pointing out the failures of Higgs seek to conquer? It seeks to conquer the same as it achieves ... nothing. I think the point is that after 15 years of fruitless whining, group 1 is seriously pissing off groups 2 & 3.

So is Group 2 the Board Haters on here and Group 3 the Rosetinter Unitists or are they somewhere else further down?

Is that what the Government, Tesco, One Direction and the club want? Can the club afford to lose paying fans? And what if that criticism is correct, and should have something done about it?
Tesco spends money to get customer feedback, so that they can improve. BRFC says bugger off.

1. Those that worry about the future of the club 2. Those that do not worry about the future of the club.
Why people in 2. are bothered by people in 1. is beyond me.
