  2. Marcus Stewart is a City fan, probably just using his season ticket. Darrell Clarke is going out with one of the Police dogs working at the Gate tonight.

  4. My Grampy was a Rovers season ticket holder, he died 12 years ago now, at his funeral his old neighbours, who were City season ticket holders, wore Rovers shirts to his funeral out of respect to a fellow football fan, only time I sang Goodnight Irene

  6. Correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't there a rumour he was at Ashton Gate a few weeks after Rovers sacked him, before the end of the year? Stewart's obviously a City fan but I wouldn't be shocked if LJ wanted him or Stewart as part of the management team, highly unlikely though of course, but he is a better than Holden, I think most City fans could agree with that.

  8. Is Clarke still out of work? If so I'm quite surprised. Painful to say but he is a decent league 1 manager and thought he would have something by now.

  10. Tbf, Clarke clearly has *something*. Looking at it on an unbiased point, he was sold a pup (which he probably enjoyed) by Ward but motivated the r*vers enough to then get two successive promotions, in addition to his Salisbury success. Undoubtedly struggled in league one though, maybe in part due to lack of funds. What I see in him is an ‘old school’ motivator manager. I don’t recall the g*s waxing lyrical about the football under him and when he got to a level where “us against the world” wasn’t enough and he needed tactical acumen, he crapped out. So, @bodin, ignoring the Dean Holden piece (assistant coaches need different skill sets from head coaches), what makes you possibly think a top six championship side would want a man who shouts a lot but has no tactical skills? (And w*nks off dogs. Just for the record). I disagree that if he did come here the blue few would melt down. They’d love it, bask in the reflected success and claim “we couldn’t have done it without DC”. Which shows where they are. So, in summary - Good non league and L2 manager - Good motivator - Tactically lacking - Inept at higher levels - Tosses off Spaniels. Its a no from me

  14. I've checked upon the late filing fees and they are disappointingly low for a private limited company as these companies are. They are doubled if it's the second year of late filing in a row so there will be a minor incentive to file them early next year. However just to tot them up: Not more than 1 month £150 More than 1 month but not more than 3 months £375 More than 3 months but not more than 6 months £750 More than 6 months £1,500 So that's currently 5 x 150 + 1 x 375 = £1,125. No big deal. Leave them for a year and it's only £9k. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/late-filing-penalties/late-filing-penalties What is more telling is the attitude of the owners which smacks of Robert Maxwell's football club ownership. No communication with minority shareholders, no epxlanantion, no AGM. Even leaving filing to the last minute is bad enough - why do you need to do this? - and possibly that "don't care" attitude has just bitten them because there is now a material post balance sheet event (?sale negotiations) which would not have been the case had they filed them in good time. Though thinking of Robert Maxwell with his attempt to merge Reading and Oxford into Thames Valley Royals maybe that's what happening? Could we be about to see the birth of Swindon Rovers? The quartered robins. And here's a sneak preview of their new shirt design:

  19. Oh no, @steviestevieneville - what have you done?! I was roundly chastised on this thread by @29AR for being ‘rude’ to our gas visitor - and posters such as @JBFC II gleefully leapt in to ‘like’ the chastising post - whilst ignoring their own less than polite messages to our dear sag visitors, and those of others ..... I hope you haven’t riled the members of the ‘don’t upset the gas’ cosy club on here at this late hour ..... I mean, anyone would think rivalry isn’t important when reading some self-righteous posts on this thread....good on you, by the way, for your message above....

  23. We don't have a manager; we have a Head Coach; he has assistants of which Holden in one (and a good one at that). Now, about this 'no goal striker' of yours; would that be Nicholls to whom you refer? Who was the talent spotter at your club who decided to break the Bank of Jordan to bring him in? Thought so. The same man who was Assistant Manager to John Ward during the season that you ceased playing in the EFL to join what every self-repecting football supporter knows as League Five (yeah right). So you believe that the Assistant Manager of a 'relegated out of the League' team can be a suitable Assistant Manager for a top six Championship club? Hmmm. Good try.
