When you don't know the song, And your lyrics are wrong...

I hope that Steve is including Stadia Solutions under the Bristol Sport banner. When it's eventually installed, I'd love for the Bristol Sport logo to be emblazoned at the bottom of their screen; it'd burn out the eyes of the fewers.

The gift giveth....and keep on giveth.

So in the time it takes for them to purchase and install a TV, we built the South Stand???

Word on the street is that WAQ has jumped the gun a little regarding Cockman's transfer plans for next season. In response to only needing "two or tree fellers" this mob turned up at training this morning... FTG...?

Oh but wouldn't it be good if he had to sue them for the money and it puts them under! :laugh:

Today’s gift from the worlds most deluded fanbase, how they believe the shit they spout I’ll never know There is a debate to be had on fan base v support for our team. In my opinion, fan base is not the same as support, people like me that live away from Bristol find it difficult to see the gas as much as Bristol based fans. I’d say the fan base is about the same for both Bristol teams, when you compare like for like matches, Liverpool in the early 90’s comes to mind, Wembley appearances etc etc Now when you talk about support then City wins hands down, and have done for long periods over the 40 odd years I’ve supported the Gas, because the quality of the product as, by and large been better, higher divisions, more ambitious boards, spending more on players, etc etc and last but not least they’re still playing at their spiritual home, which has always been tidier than eastville anyway. Give us the ground and the board and team to match and we would be getting 20,000 plus crowds too I’m sure.

I can't stop laughing! So Steve gets money from the 15ers (good luck with that, Steve) which could indirectly percolate into our coffers! Brilliant! Lovely jubbly! Stick a pony in me pocket ...

When your new tv screen is nowhere to be seen that’s the Rovers!

When you can't get it up (TV) There's always Babestation Thats the Rovers

Piss Up in a Brewery Update Bristol Rovers are disappointed to announce that there has been a further delay to the planned piss up in a brewery, meaning it will not be happening after tomorrow’s game. As previously stated the club purchased several thousand pint glasses in July last year from Pissup Solutions, a leading corporate entertainment agency that specialises in piss ups in breweries, with the aim of having the piss up next to the Brunel sponsored South Stand by the end of 2018. Although the glasses were delivered on time in October, due to the size of many supporters a special bespoke seating structure was required to meet health and safety regulations at the stadium. Unfortunately, the unique nature of this structure led to various complications with Pissup Solutions’ sub-contractor, resulting in subsequent delays with installation. Work started this week, ahead of the new proposed piss up date of this weekend. However, the contractors have experienced further unforeseen issues on site which has delayed installation slightly. The team has been working tirelessly to fix the problems encountered but unfortunately the seating will not be installed and operational in time for tomorrow’s game which is hugely disappointing. Work will continue next week and completed as soon as it possible. We apologise for the further inconvenience and would like to thank all supporters and piss up sponsor Brunel Professions for their continued patience. https://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2019/april/12.4.19-pissup-statement/

I suspect that the only thing they can mount is a cocker spaniel.

That was one of the most boring programmes on telly.

The replies should be good later...

Unbelievable Jeff !

??? fvcking priceless. Theyll be raging at that. Protest, boycotts the lot.

If we were based in Barcelona, had their ground, their board and their team we’d be ‘kin Barcelona.

As @TomF says, the Mikey Garcia fight is a natural one- it's a shame they didn't fight prior to Spence's demolition job though, beatings like that diminish you as a fighter in the rest of your career. I'd like to see him batter Gervonta Davis all over the gaff too, the gobby shite.

1-0 Bradford ?????????

When you're known from afar, For a ****ing crap car, That's the Rovers ....

When you want a TV but get shithousery thats Steve Lansdown

Maybe they should have waited until the legendary big screen was up and running before taking the piss out of the opposition ... "I wonder how many tickets Bradford have sold for tomorrow. I've heard most people in Bradford can't afford a TV. This could be their first view of a big screen or even a small one in the bars. Got to be a sell out on their part surely. Whippet TV viewers need not apply."

Well that was quick. Hopefully Crolla has made enough to be financially sorted, he seems a good lad and should walk away now and enjoy it. No shame in losing to quality like that.

O ffs hahahahha

Ref did Crolla no favours, looks like he'd been hit by a truck..

Can tell they are getting a little worried now, instead of it being the worst thing that could possibly happen to them, it’s now ‘I hope the Ted’s do go up as we can laugh at them getting tanked every week’ funny how Windass is a Sag legend despite never playing for them though and then took it in turns to **** him off up Chasers ? What a fanbase they are, no one quite like them, they wouldn’t care less how shit they are doing themselves ‘as long as da shit get stuffed every week in the Prem

Big screen delayed again ????????

When a ball hits their screen, All the 15ers turn green, That’s the Rovers .....

Priceless ????

Surely everyone knows Blu-Tac doesn't stick to canvas.....

Blimey Steve....nice one! When they realise it won't work without a remote, how much are you planning to charge them for that? And how long will they have to wait for delivery? The gift.

They are already boycotting home games - I am not sure we'd be able to tell the difference

That was a masterclass. Brave by Crolla but hopelessly outclassed. Poor by the ref as well.

Maybe that is part of his plan to get rid of the gas shithouses? If SL doesn’t receive payment then unlike the rest I’m pretty sure he’ll take them to the cleaners.

Poor bastards were probably hoping to show the Villa vs City match on their shiny new big screen tomorrow. They’ll be more interested in that than watching their own shower lumping balls around the ground. Sags will just have to do what they usually do and follow our game on their mobile phones instead.

Fixed the grammar for you, sir!

You’re a boring hypocrite - contrary to your grandiose splutterings, you have ‘laughed’ at and joined in with anti gas sentiments on here, being rude to our gas visitors, yet.....you have then agreed with people who are condemning anti gas sentiments - whilst giving your trademark ‘eggplant’ reactions to those who have a go at gas visitors on here....you are obviously confused and all over the place.....I suggest you are the one with ‘anger’ issues....you are a boring, hypocrite - no need to interact anymore, let’s leave it there and just get on with supporting our team....

Absolutely nothing. Have a cigar.

That picture sums up "the gap" perfectly, there can't be a bigger gap agmonst the two teams from the same city.

There ground couldn’t be worse But they compared it with spurs Thats the rovers

Poor Crolla is absolutely made for Loma. He does the basics well enough but he isn't really very good at much and was brutally exposed by Linares's speed, let alone Loma's. Zero power to keep Vasyl off him, plods forward into shots and even worse, he's also far too brave for his own good. You can't blame Crolla for taking the money, but this is going to be a painful night for him.

Well... closer. When they talk about fanbase they are forgetting that we are all ageing and despite this we all keep extrapolating our own similarly ageing peer group to the wider community. There has for twenty years realistically been only one club in Bristol that was going to provide success on the pitch and that is City. Most people who have started watching football in Bristol in that time with no strong family connection to either club (students, incomers from London) will have chosen City. Meanwhile at the other of the age spectrum as people age they start going to games less,do the garden on Saturdays or watch the rugby. I would estimate that the average supporting life of a fan is about forty years. Say the top end of that is 50:50 and the young end is 80:20 City and you have 65:35 City overall. Keep serving up relegation struggles year after year and people drift away. Rovers' fans aren't going to become City fans (and vice versa) but they will retire to their armchairs rather than turn out, and pay out, for yet another disappointing season. The relative stength of the forums is indicative of the wider fanbase. Most people in the crowd on match day aren't posting on here even if at times we seem to think we are entirely representative. Yet this site is massively more busy than their main forum, Gaschat, and that isn't just because it has better software. There are more City fans at games, there are more City fans generally. I'm guessing at a ratio of about 2:1 as it stands with that only likely to widen. You've just moved to Bristol and fancy watching a game of football next month. Do you choose: a) the team currently in the Championship play-off places that play in that amazing new stadium you saw from the train with the England junior team players? or b) the team fighting relegation from Divsion 3 who play in a stadium that seems to have been assembled from stands that other clubs have left out for collection by the binmen?

Im f****d if I'm paying £19.95 to watch Khan win 1 and a half rounds before being rendered unconscious by Crawford's first meaningful punch. But I'll probably get up to see Crolla rescued by the ref somewhere between the two national anthems... ?
