  1. If they take the 4 o'clock they'll miss the kick off!

  2. Fate can be very unkind .... they have fluked a few wins against some basement teams recently ... and suddenly they start talking about promotion and local derbys.... but they seem to forget that they have the biggest match in their history coming up next month .... so how will they get on against the mighty Sainsbury's legal team?! If they lose that one, then once Sainsbury's have had their pound of flesh ... and Wonga start knocking on the door wanting the keys to the Mem... the next time that there will be a City v Rovers match will be a friendly on the Downs out of sympathy for them!

  4. TBF I don't think anyone's actually mentioned that we're doing OK at the moment and err, you're not. Somebody has mentioned that there could be a Bristol Derby next season but personally, I don't believe it will happen. FWIW I think there are at least 3 teams worse then city in the championship this season. As long as the crowd gets behind the players, you are more than capable of grinding out a couple of good results to lift you clear of trouble. I have been an avid follower of NLBR and Basement Rovers topics but haven't posted regularly on OTIB for years. Those threads epitomise the rivalry between our clubs. Some genuinely witty banter that I might be tempted to engage in, and a lot of OTT blind hatred. Happens on our forum too as well as pubs and workplaces throughout the region. I'm well past all that bullshit these days and I have more respect for a shed than a Bristolian who supports a prem side. Although I suspect most of you are glory hunters from Somerset who should be supporting Yeovil ...

  5. Anything is possible Phil but there's a long way to go. It's what makes us love and sometimes hate the game. A couple of seasons ago when we were at the bottom of league 1 and you were looking comfortable in league 2 a Gas acquaintance was enjoying our struggles and said to me 'bring on the relegation'. I took it with a smile as it's all part and parcel of being a football fan. Anyway, sure enough, come the end of the season she got her relegation
