You`d need a good wash afterwards I should think. There is also the risk of contamination if you were to breathe in some air that one of them had breathed out - before you know it you`d be crowing about Wally`s wealth and anticipating watching the first game at the UWE in 2018. Provided you wear a full anti-radiation suit you should be OK though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldenBall Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 I seem to remember they were extremely giddy when our U23's lost 2-0 to Torquay.. I assume friendly results mean nothing now.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 I assume FGR won yesterday's game as there is no "Official FGR v Bristol Rovers" thread. Instead one complaining about treatment of fans and another complaining about the catering. However, gasp, shock, horror, the 2nd post on page 5 of the "Vegan Rovers" thread is a post calling for debate rather than abuse! http://gaschat.co.uk/thread/10284/vegan-rovers-gas?page=5 First time I've been on here for a few days and it's just the same kind of School play ground crap that was on here last time.I used to use this forum because I could find out things about our club that I probably couldn't from the official club website and there were interesting debates that I felt I could get involved in but those days seem to be gone now.Shame. To have a proper debate you have to argue your case against opinions you don't agree with but there are many on here that simply hurl abuse at anyone with alternative opinions. All opinions however unpalatable should be heard and argued with or against to make the forum work properly in my view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Just out of interest I started reading the report on their official site but I didn't get beyond the opening paragraph. Talk about getting your excuses in early, apparently their flight home was delayed so the poor loves got to bed late, and it's a lot colder in Nailsworth than it was in Portugal.

A 12-0 victory with 140,000 locked out could've been the truth then. They've had to resort to alternative facts and fake news as usual, the poor lambs, for they shall not know the truth and the truth shall not set them free.

The "funniest" thing about that photo was that it was taken on "Non-league Day" "Non-League Day is a day set aside in English football where supporters of clubs playing at the highest levels of the game are encouraged to experience football at non-league level with which they may be unfamiliar." - says Wikipedia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame really, this Broadbent lad actually has a really good story on how he got into football which I can respect, and then he went and bloody chose Rovers!

Does that mean that he is more bent than Junior Bent? Where is the lady garden Keith Valle to announce it on matchdays or is he still banged up? Goodness me he must be getting on a bit now. I tried to sign Peter for Rovers back in the 1950’s but had a hard job convincing him we were a bigger club than Wolves. Admittedly, for me, hard jobs were more frequent then than they are today but even so I was ultimately unsuccessful. The promise of a flight in the Brabazon had no effect and after visiting the site of our proposed new stadium on College Green he had had the impudence to ask where the money was coming from. I explained our owners were wealthy bankers from Greenland but even this cut no ice. Stan Cullis had obviously queered our pitch which, in those unenlightened times, had health and efficiency ramifications as well as being illegal. Telling Peter that we were constant whingers who had even petitioned Gladstone to try to force “The Old Curiosity Shopping Chain” to buy Eastville didn’t help our cause. But at the end of the day I have to admit Wolves winning three league titles during that decade may have been the deciding factor.
