Rudolf Hucker Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Back in the day, if you'd gone to see Sinatra in concert, you'd have been disappointed had he not sung "My Way". I'm sure that when the gas hoardes are strutting their famous jesterwear around foreign parts they will be well aware that they have an obligation to the locals by singing about Eileen at every opportunity before making their way to soak up the atmosphere of the match from their vantage point in the stadium car park. That's "Their Way". Edited July 19, 2017 by Rudolf Hucker 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't get it, that as heart breaking as the impact of Windass's contribution was, it stopped us reaching the Premier League and achieving beyond our means. Colin Daniel on the other hand, produced the moment that humiliated them beyond words and condemned them to failure on an unrivalled level. Oh, and the fact that he did it whilst actually wearing Rovers' kit just made it even more ####ing hillarious! So they celebrate our failure to over achieve, whilst we celebrate their complete and utter failure as they lost their status as a football league club!

The latter seems unusual to me. It's a very clever ploy by the board to give the fans what they want - the opportunity to lie about it or exaggerate it 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that six figure fee, or six finger fee? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The figures are utter bollocks anyway as EFL clubs have to make a certain % available for POTD so it's probably less than 5K, maybe nearer 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Apparently, they are going to average 15k in League 1 when the UWE gets built....

Since they stole the minimal over 20 years ago they've averaged a 9k attendance once. Wait until they hit a rocky patch again they'll be down to 6k crowds quicker than you can say pikeys. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 They must be getting all moist with anticipation now what with it being nearly August and work starting on the UWE. I`m surprised we haven`t heard on the local news about the arrangements for the ceremonial turf cutting ceremony yet, surely there will be traffic chaos in the area with all the hordes of dignitaries and fans that will want to attend. Or have I missed something? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 I see they've signed Sweeney & Godden. I immediately thought of City's Gerry Sweeney and Godden the WBA keeper. Both retired from playing over 30 years ago, but would be right for the gas. But no, it's a pair of current players with illustrious surnames. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malago Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 It's seems to have passed everyone by that they've strengthened their squad with the signing of 25 year old centre back from Hayes and Yeading on a free transfer.

... Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Just to say ............ ........... if any of you have not tried a double raspberry magnum ice-cream, then you really ought to. They are seriously moorish. Have not found a super-market that sells them yet, but you can get your hands on one in a good petrol station. Expect to pay around £1.80 for one. Really - you should try one. Cheers, tfj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
