  1. I was interested in this bit when someone quoted elsewhere in the thread, it looked incredibly generous, so I looked it up on the FA Website. "The FSIF provides money for clubs in the Football League who want to improve their facilities for players, officials and spectators. Grant limits Football League clubs are eligible for: a maximum £750,000 less any previous grants received from the Football Trust or FSIF at any time since 1990. a maximum grant of 50% of eligible costs." It appears that the £6m quoted is the total annual amount available to support clubs in stadium renovations, I guess the poster assumes that the FA will be happy to give them the whole pot as they are Bristol Rovers after all.

  2. You mean the game where his substitutions were met with chants of “you don’t know what you’re doing” and then his substitutes linked up to create and score the winning goal..?! I think he was entitled to that reaction..!

  3. A bit late for that I’m afraid. The story about a disabled City fan who apparently had all his teeth/one tooth/no teeth smashed out of his head by a fellow City fan over a seat was enough to see that Henbury Gas talks bullshit.

  4. So youre saying that instead of the gas paying interest they are paying rent. And as such we can call them rent boys again. That works nicely

  5. In all fairness those substitutions changed the game as we suddenly looked dangerous going forward which up to that point wasn't the case. I'm guessing LJ was letting out some frustrations the same way the crowd had when they were chanting that he didn't know what he was doing. Bad times....the Gas were loving it, we were DEFINITELY going down and they were DEFINITELY going up with Dopey at the helm. How did that work out in the end? HAHA FTG!

  8. No. They put on the "La-La" machines whenever the 'charge' is mentioned.

  12. This can't be right. http://m.4-traders.com/ARAB-JORDAN-INVESTMENT-BA-9445364/company/ It suggests that Wally's Dad owns less than 5% of the shares in the bank. It must be more than that surely?

  13. Islamic banks don’t charge interest. It’s absolutely forbidden. When I last looked the Al Qadis were shareholders in an Islamic Bank. It’s another reason not to understand the way this whole thing is set up.

  14. keep them heads burred in the sand gasheads, Some one want to point out how much interest we paid on lansdown's various loans over the years (the answer is close to zero I think) nottsgas Newbie Posts: 1 Posting Level Next Level in 24 posts 48 minutes ago Quote Post by nottsgas on 48 minutes ago 52 minutes ago bluebutterfly said: Can anybody with financial know how explain the owners loan against the mem and paying themselves interest from it in a positive way? What happens when the £10m runs out and were still losing money? Why is dwayne sports making money from interest on the loan against the stadium? I don't think it's anything untoward, if we (rovers) take out a loan we'll pay on interest on it- no matter who the lender is. In this case it's the Al Qadi's themselves, they wouldn't be where they are now if they didn't charge interest on loans! I guess their bank has its own BoD who they answer to there who'd be asking questions if they gave rovers a special deal.

  15. Spot on Peter, he's been proven to be a source of bullshit. One thing they seem to be missing in this new plan is the fact that they DON'T OWN THE MEM LAND. IF there is a prospective take over, the fake sheik and his family will get the land as they have a charge of £10M on it. Also, they cannot own the UWE land (not that it will be built) as there's a covenant on it. Then gain, they never let facts get in the way of bullshit do they? They are making up plans so that they get something for nothing, as usual.

  16. Well these are the figures else where on the site. "The Premier League wholly funds the FSIF, investing £6m each year. Since 2000 a total of £51.67m worth of grants have been redistributed to clubs right across England and Wales". That suggests that only around £3m a year has been spent in 17 years and this covers non-league football as well. I would think it's unlikely there would have been only one project a year in that time.

  17. Well they are the best supported ultra family orientated team in the world so why wouldn't they support them - but yes, good spot, I wonder what the maximum the FA have given any one club.

  22. Dopey is full of it when things are going well but when things arent he sulks like a kid his interviews are beyond embarrassing. One thing about LJ last season during that bad run he conducted himself so well, didnt shy away from interviews or feel sorry for himself.

Monkeh, reading gaschat so you don't have too, Another belter, sipirate Youth Team Posts: 36 Member is Online Posting Level Next Level in 64 posts 6 minutes ago Quote Post by sipirate on 6 minutes ago I am still loving it that he said no to the stadium It is great to finally be in a position where we can say no. Thank the lord Wael came in and employed the right people to look at the minor details and seen the catastrophic flaws in the proposal. Give him freedom of Bristol right away in my opinion Pretty much with that decision alone saved us from becoming a darlington
