Well, they still bang on about Dean Lardass, so let's not them forget 3rd May 2014 21 Northampton 46 -15 53 22 Wycombe 46 -8 50 23 Bristol Rovers 46 -11 50 24 Torquay 46 -24 45

It is? Fantastic! "We're coming for you...Waels a billionaire...bloody tax dodger SL...it was all UWEs fault...Mattys worth £10m...I've lived through the Thatcher years...look, an attractive Labrador..." I think I'm getting the hang of it...

Do we have to behave like pirates too? I only ask because I have no urge to Punch a Horse, and I cant stand my sister...

Well. they were The Bath City Rovers for many a year

That's not Geoff Merrick.

Look who's coming to town on Saturday

Alexa...........

Thought that said Gas spastic

How much can we get Steve Lansdown to pay them to drop the "Bristol" bit of their name. It embarrasses the f8ck out of me, it really does.

anyone seen this belter? apparently UWE can't go ahead with plans funded by new consotium to build a stadium on the land UWE own as Bristol Rovers have copy righted the plans, Im pretty sure UWE can build whatever the **** they like on the land they own which has planning permission granted about an hour ago via Tapatalk Quote Post by Topper Gas on about an hour ago about an hour ago newblue said: 2 hours ago peterparker said: what due diligence would that be There is no (and never has been) and deal with UWE. Any new consortium would be starting negotiations from scratch. Read the post again - "Perhaps" a tongue in cheek statement in the unlikely event that anything is going on. BUT and a very big BUT any "new consortium" as you put it, IMO would want a 'nailed down' understanding of what UWE are looking for wrt to a partnership for the stadium BEFORE making any overtures to the Club about a possible takeover. Unlikely to happen IMO but I thought 3 months ago we were 'nailed on' to achieving a workable deal with UWE with the current owners and where are we now - back to square one - where we were six years ago. Even if a new consortium existed they would need the club's permission to speak to the UWE about the stadium plans, they can't just get the OK from the UWE to do Due Diligence when they don't single handily own the plans themselves.

Lucky sod.

Wet outfield up north in September... strange that

Unsurprisingly, there are issues. Not rained all morning, but the outfield is wet due to lack of sun drying it. Media clocking on now, to be honest the best thing to happen for the general cricket fan is all 5 games to have problems, that way the ECB may wake up and smell the coffee. International cicket games mid-late September in this country is ridiculous.

John Ryan (not THE John Ryan, ex Luton Town full back), the writer of Captain Pugwash, successfully sued a newspaper for printing the wrong names etc. Because OTIB only prints facts (allegedly) and that it has never been proven Captain Pugwash was a Gashead, here is his original team... Tom the Cabin boy, Master Mate, Pirates Barnabas and Willy from Wigan. All of the above sail on the Black Pig. There's also Cut-throat Jake who captains the Flying Dustbin. There is a new film about Captain Horatio Pugwash set for release in 2018 starring Nick Frost. You see, even on this particular thread you can learn something interesting!

Their centre spot certainly made for a good place to have a dump one night, during a Sunday league awards night in their club house!

You forgot "Barcelona Rovers FC"

Remembering the NLBR monicker, when they hit the buffers and go into administration will they be known as BRIAN? Bristol Rovers In AdministartioN

Because it's the face he pulls whilst watching that program hosted by Alan Davies, Dog Rescue.

He owns a dog?

How do you know..?!

That's his sex face

Ahh. Another classic old chant resurfaces. After that Spurs game, the East End used to remind the other stands of the score by going, "1,2 - 3,4,5 - 6,7,8,9, Tottenham."

Oh those were they days! 2-1 home wins against Dagenham & Redbridge..! MIND THE GAP!

Yep you wouldn't want anything awful like taking a "prowed" club out of the league on your CV... Those were such happy times :laugh:...

I did wonder if that was who it was - expect they've blanked that day from actually happening

I'll give you a clue ........his first name is Sir!

Hi Zummerset fans - your game is being live streamed. Sorry I don't have a link. Best found on the Surrey official website. Good luck ... hope you bat Batty into the ground

12:30 start scheduled... Next inspection 2pm... Sun is out, no cricket. Thanks ECB...Farcical

Agreed - I just laugh at how their lot always manage to descend from discussing whether finding a general term offensive quickly descends into listing their preferred insults and why they're not offensive until the thread gets closed :laugh: And yeah that Facebook post was beyond parody, even for them!

Shame to lose Tres right on lunch but decent morning 96/1

Would be good, unfortunately Major, I think Wolves will bench their top players tonight, the worst thing the Gas can do is go in 1-0 up at half time... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.. The Wolves. Gotta ring to it..

Will Wolves do a Spurs on Ragass Rovers tonight ? If they play like they did against us it could be embarrassing for them.

He's only been with Salisbury City before, and the Gas are slightly an improvement on that - he clearly knows no better

Urban myth

Talking of Captain Pugwash ... they are a rum bunch over at the Mem ... Seaman Staines, Captain Shag, Master Bates, Roger the cabin boy, Finger the Mermaid, Pirate Willy.... all aboard a pirate ship called 'The Black Cock'! They could get away with that on children's TV back in the day!

Either he is on significantly more more money than the division pays, or both sides have photos.

... but there is a crock of shit.

does no one else think it looks like an advert for division four ?

Worse than you imagine. I went to a Catholic school. I can't imagine eating a digestive biscuit without a salty (so I have been told) topping.

You'll have to explain that to me. I went to a state school.

There certainly isn't any pot of gold there..!

Who doesn't toss off dogs.

Or "thank you matty taylor, the goals you're scoring"

I bet he`s got them stupid pointy shoes on that all these pillocks in jobs that require talking a lot of bullshit wear.

Astute bloke, been there a week and sussed it, "..............Our supporters are different "

Looks like the new commercial director only got the job because he is as obsessed about the gap as all the other sad f*ckers over there ... Bristol Rovers' new commercial director on the rivalry with Bristol City 'We will look try close that gap a little bit.' "So I’m really looking forward to hopefully meeting them on the pitch, off the pitch and there’s no reason why we can’t meet with them directly – we will look to try close that gap a little bit.” http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bristol-rovers-new-commercial-director-482573
