If anyone wants to play ‘Loyal and Few’ bingo with this press release you’re odds on to get a full house: https://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2018/october/stefan-payne-statement/ In a classic of the ‘Deluded Gappers’ genre, look out for the repeated references to ‘great fanbase’, ‘travelled in great numbers’, ‘great following’, and ‘good number’. There are so many ‘great’s in there it seems like Tony the Tiger has written it! Just to confirm, the official attendance was 446. Great.

I`ve never had an issue with opposition players giving it back after getting grief from us. In fact, it really pisses me off when some fan who`s been dishing it out all game goes running to a steward when the player has a go back. Just grow up FFS.

Fined one weeks wages which equates to £240. Wael wanted the punishment to be doubled because there's an end of summer sale of white patio chairs at Homebase and he's been asked to provide seating for staff in the club shop to be used on matchdays and during other quiet periods.

Newsflash: Bristol Rovers fan in failure to actually make it to a football match..!

No, they're compiled by the same guy who does the government unemployment figures.

Load of bollocks again from another gashead trying to promote, gain sympathy, win support and big his club up. We need them like we need a few more injuries to key players. There are plenty of clubs that survive quite nicely without a direct competitor. Leeds, Derby, Swansea, Cardiff, Brighton, Southampton, Pompey, Newcastle, Sunderland, Boro, Blackburn the list goes on and, most of them have been more successful than us as a one club city/town. In my opinion they hold us back, hanging onto our shirt tails and doing their utmost to hinder us in all our plans, even when it's to the detriment of themselves and our city. They have been put on this planet to embarrass the city of Bristol and split the support in our well to do city (compared to some), but, it appears to be changing. Long may that change continue.

I expect you’ll find that he used to go and watch City, but one day he refused to move out of someone else’s seat and got battered by City fans. On his way home he needed an expert in clearing child pornography from his laptop, so he popped into a random computer shop, in Westbury-on-trym, where the odd looking owner sold him the joys of being a Sag, and the rest is history..!

Does Dianne Abbott collate their away numbers by any chance?

Not that unique, I believe Mansfield wore it too.

As much as I like to take the p!55 out of R*Vers, I think you need to check your geography!

Wtf is the simpleton on about? He says: “The funny thing is that we [Bristol Rovers and Bristol City] need each other. “When Rovers were failing a couple of years ago – and Darrell has done brilliantly to get them back – when they were failing, it affected City, I don’t care what you say. “You need some competition and the closer they get, the better it’s going to be.” What, you mean like in 14/15 while your tramps were grubbing around in non league and we were pissing L1 and winning the FL Trophy do you Holloway, you absoulte ****wit?

Dopey Does Battersea

‘Special’ eh? ?

446 is the formation that Dopey is planning to play to overcome the goal drought.

Ridiculous, no City fan would do that, Rovers away at Barnsley is sure to see a sold out away end, I mean I think it only holds 3000

It's obvious he was gesturing to those two gurt teds in the away end, who instead of watching their side at home to Stoke had travelled 380 odd miles to see the mighty gas...

I kind of feel he speaks for us all though...

If only the open coat policy was also made for women to

I was, however a change of plans meant I didn't get to cheer on Stoke to a glorious victory :)

I've always been a winker, Rob. So many have told me over the years.

Yet people wonder why this thread exists.

Well, I must admit, after a few cheeky ciders I do feel a bit lightheaded....and I am usually ‘ahead’ of a few others in this state...

Apparently only played because of injuries. Weakened Luton 12 other lot 0.

I’ve heard of Joe Payne......he scored ten goals against the gas...in ONE game....#NeverForget.....

And the gifts keep on coming. A Take That tribute band, no less. WHAT. A. TREAT! Take That at the Mem Rep mftc Reserve Team about an hour ago Quote Rather than shell out a small fortune to see some people (who could be anyone) from a long way away, apart from on a TV screen at Trashton, why not pop along to the Helpline Christmas Party ( in November). You can actually see up close and personal a live act performing Take That covers. Do we have a good sense of humour, or could you really make it up! PS is the Rovers fan who was (is?) a guitarist and songwriter with band still with them? (Take That not the covers band).

You mean gggrrrrreat

Swindon took 562 to Notts County which is around the same distance and they're a mid table league 2 club. Says it about the gas!

I'll give that a listen, ta.

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned on here before yet but TF has done a really good interview with Joe Rogan that's worth listening to.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46019164 Good to see their first choice striker getting on well with the fans...

And receive the necessary emergency dentistry as well as having their broken nose reset - in fact, they looked like nothing had happened at all on leaving.

Must have been the world famous Downend to Filton bike marathon which has been known to reduce attendance figures for all sorts of other sporting events.

Him's a her, BS3 (as her avatar indicates) and a nurse, I'll be bound! She certainly wouldn't have ventured into a random computer shop in Henbury lest the owner practice his boob cricketing talent upon her.

. . . As in special needs. Yes, seeing half a dozen unwashed with seventies hairdo's and a combined IQ and teeth of 40 in that quirky jester's outfit looking like they're going to a clowns convention, singing that old zombie like Argyle dirge about a prostitute. Yes, it truly is special.

I knew people who supported both teams, it just felt like the right "fit" for me - no doubt I've left myself open to loads of abuse by saying that! ? It could partly be due to the fact that I do always tend to take the side of the underdog in any competition, oh, and blue is my favourite colour. ?

I think they hired the same person who told us there were 200 fans from Hull ... But then again if they say there were 450 there why on earth would we disbelieve them?

Fair play, and I mean that as my Dad, Grandad and Great Grandad were all gasheads.....you should feel privileged to be able to place that post on here though....in reverse that wording would be sufficient to be banned from Gaschat....it really is pathetic....

Thought it was 18 in a row?

Interesting. In the last 25 years - a quarter of a century - we have been to Barnsley 17 times. In the same time - 25 years - Rovers have played Barnsley once. So a new ground for many of them. But not for us. I wish the City fan upsetting himself in the build up to West Brom away, about our following there midweek, was on here reading all this. He has been taken in big time by there bullshit myth making.

Doesn't look anywhere near 450?

Happy birthday Gap

We all know that the Sags are w**kers, but when the fact is recognised by their own players, it really says something, doesn't it. Well done Stefan Payne for making it quite clear for all to see ?

Better fight on sky Gill vs Doyle

Fury throws his right hand like he's never thrown a punch in his life. Bizarre technique.

Credit where credits' due.......as many of your fellow sags weren't there from the bitter start.

Two pages. on one of their games. Enough said. As I said, I enjoy this thread. Just don't be surprised if they call us out for being obsessed with them.

In case no one has seen it. That's 2 game out of 7 Bath have literally dropped this season..
