******* no shame those pricks. Ever since getting evicted from the dog track they’ve been walking around with a begging bowl. Vermin.

I think where Women’s football falls down is in the Goalkeeper position.

I never tire of reading this!

I thought that sort of thing was for good causes, not lost causes ?

Sunderland fans will pay for it, because they LOVE THEM. They really are far more tinpot than we give them discredit for.

Yeah, because they won’t need to buy tickets..! Pavements would provide uncovered, inadequate surroundings, with no seating or commercial revenue making options. They should feel right at home..!

Maybe if they tried advertising their home fixtures more, that would help them get enough people to cover the costs of games too..!

So how few advanced season ticket sales would it take for them to pull the plug in next season?

They should have a stadium mystery night.

That’s the sags in a nutshell: always had big plans, just needed someone else to pay for it. Away fans are a new low for them though.

Oh, my days! An idea to have a prize draw for away fans ONLY to fund a roof at Chernobyl. quartered Fans' Favourite yesterday at 12:33pm BishopstonBRFC, nickster, and 4 morelike this Quote Small one - An idea I thought of before and has come back to me is as follows “50/50 draw for away fans only” raise a roof! Similar to what we did with the blackthorn end but for away fans only! Small extra income for the club each week to go towards a roof for away fans. Won’t cost the club anything (clearly have been reluctant to spend on that over the years) and will improve facilities for travelling fans! Better facilities equals more away fans, more away fans equals more money.

A couple of years ago FC Dallas U15 team beat the USA National Women's team 5-2. I think there is a sizeable disparity between men's and women's football and you'd have to go quite far down to some really poor sides to find a men's side that would lose to a women's side. So yes, the fewers would probably lose.

I can tell you from experience what it's like to play a men against women match. I used to play in Bath and district Sunday league. During one of our practice sessions, on the next pitch we're Bath uni women's practicing. They appoched us and asked if we fancied a practice game and so we did. They absolutely smashed us! They don't piss about at all.

That is probably realistic if ever they play our U21’s in the Johnson Daf Windscreens Cup or if Rob Stewart, Fake That or the Spyce Girls hold a concert there.

Check out Tomylil’s post currently at the bottom of page one on that thread: “ .... to accommodate 25,000 spectators...” Not content with recently telling the world on radio they are bigger than Chelsea and Arsenal - they will now get 25k crowds in div 3

More like this if their video was anything to go by........

If ever there is a post to completely sum up a Sag and their ideas of improving their facilities this is IT! For aslong as I’ve known that shambles of a club and it’s moronic following they are always wanting everything for fvck all. W4nkers

They honestly sound like some Cornwall Sunday League side trying to raise some money to repaint the clubhouse and buy a reconditioned mower.

“A good thread, I have offered the club a bit of money, wanted to get the thatchers roof extended so that it covers the family stand , thereby converting this stand from an embarrassing tent into a proper stand, also get more seating in the ground so that more of the south stand could be given over to away supporters giving them more choice of whether to stand or sit thereby bringing in more income. It is difficult to cover the away end a stand was going to be put in there last season but it would have interfered with views from the dribuild.TG is ment to be contacting me to arrange a meeting, so any good ideas on here such as selling more food inside the ground from mobile points, I will raise with the club I will also ask about fund raising from supporters, although when I have done this before I was told the owners didn't need money, but things may have changed since then” hard to to think that this is a mahoosive football league club taking about fundraising and not some Sunday league pub team.

Or some WD40 and a swan vestas or Englands Glory (thats one for the old 'uns).

Just take a high wind to do that.....

Higgs In box number 1 With the watertight contract imo.

They must have breathed a mighty sigh of relief when Sunderland and Pompey didn`t go up. At least they still have two high (by their standards) gates for next season which ought to cover the electricity bill for a week or two.

the club is an embarrassment to Bristol, the Football League, football itself and dare I say society as a whole - I would say I wish they would toddle off to the Southern League ASAP but the clubs there don’t deserve that “privilege”

Thread goes on to say if they'd bought a couple of sausage rolls each they might have broken even, however the kitchens were already in use so it sounds like someone went down the chippy! #comingforus

Obviously blissfully unaware that underneath the hockey/tennis skirts, cycling type shorts are normally worn.

"If it was to be as well attended as the Nations Cup at the Mem last night (11 people, we almost had a screen each) I'm not really surprised."

Have the Dwayne Sports tax dodging horse punching racist franchise gone bust yet?

Would be mint if this was to happen

Preference isn't sexist

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t see that as being ‘ worse .

As I understand it, Bristol Fruit Market will plant vegetable and herb crops on the pitch at the Memorial Ground selling the ensuing produce at the weekly car boot sale. Hyatt Regency will build a state of the art hotel on the site of the fruit market at St Phillips, incorporating a football stadium on the roof. The Colony will be turned into a tropical oasis growing exotic fruits. Wally's vision will finally um bear fruit. These things take thyme.

I'm tempted to ask this idiot at what point he deems it acceptable to no longer be responible for the errors of one's forefathers; 100 years, 500 years, never? How can they live with themselves? Probably the same as him enduring endless, sleepless nights in consideration of the Anglo - Spanish war of 1585 and conflicts since. No wonder they live in past - as Andre correctly points out that's all the have soon anyway.....

shes 1st prize in the raffle.5 mins to do what you want with her in santas grotto at half time. 2nd prize is 10 mins her to do what she wants with you at full time,third prize you have to take it home til the next match

Yep, couple of tits only covered by barely adequate fabric structures. That just about sums the Gas up.

When you say worse . . . .

I personally believe the police behave as they do at football matches simply because they can. Ask a Welsh copper about rugby internationals in Cardiff and they will tell you there is far more trouble than at CCFC yet they handle such matches with kid gloves. My point is Rich that we have an incident of some kids with a spray can which unfortunately happens all over Bristol, usually affecting normal people far more often than FV yet on this occasion because its the rovers ground and the words "csf" are sprayed it's deemed newsworthy to the extent that a well known chap puts out a massively tongue in cheek "statement" that the Bristol Post and gasheads actually consider some kind of formal announcement. Funny as **** and no one was hurt in the making of it either...

You'd think Joshua using his natural attributes would be far too strong for him, but i just don't understand what went so wrong on Saturday- and I don't know whether it can all be turned around in 5 months. The AJ who beat Klitschko would eat Ruiz Jnr for breakfast but it's a long way back from Saturday imo. I would back Whyte, I reckon he would foul Ruiz Jnr to bits haha. He has a nastier streak than AJ and is a better counter and body puncher too.

He did put Ruiz Jnr down, but he got straight back up and beat AJ up for the rest of the fight. Joshua simply can't fight inside, making Ruiz Jnr kryptonite to him. With regard to his jab, Joshua didn't have one on Saturday. I read the other day that only 3 deposed world champions have ever won immediate rematches in the history of boxing (Sugar Ray Robinson v Gene Fulmer, Lewis v Rahman and another I can't remember!). I'm really not convinced AJ can buck the trend after the manner of his defeat.

On your 1st point, let's not foget that AJ, for all his pointless pawing in rounds one and two, did land a big punch and put Ruiz down in the third. Had it not been for a split second of carelessness, he conceivably would have gone on to get the stoppage. Fine margins. So AJ knows that next time he has to stay switched on and to hammer his jab with intensity. He just needs to remind himself of fundamentals to dispose of Ruiz jr. I think he wins a rematch without too much drama. Beyond that though, I totally agree that he is missing some things in his skillset and would really benefit from mentorship from Lennox Lewis (who I reckon would be up for that).

He was being frozen out by al haymon and bob arum when he had 3 belts. Its a long way back with no belts. He has to take the rematch IMO

Agree with all of this. AJ is in a very dangerous position now, a bit like Price was after the first Thompson fight; if he loses to Ruiz Jnr again his boxing career at the top level is pretty much over. Price just assumed he had been unlucky and went into the rematch with exactly the same weaknesses and got sparked out again. Does Joshua have the ability and honesty to overcome his own glaring issues and the stylistic problems Ruiz Jnr poses? With his current set up I'm really not convinced. Of course we saw Lennox overcome a similar massive shock by blowing away Rahman second time around but Joshua patently is nothing like the boxer Lewis was. AJ and his entire team need a massive dose of realism to have any chance of getting the belts back. There's not really time between now and November to make the radical personnel changes required in the long term, but even if he does win the rematch, then going forward he clearly needs at least 9 months to a year with a new trainer before he considers a fight with Wilder or Fury. McCracken has taken him as far as he can imo, it was bizarre to see him abandon all the natural advantages he held in the fight in order to exchange with Ruiz Jnr. Even if McCracken was telling him to fight more astutely, Joshua clearly wasn't listening to him and the corner was confused and chaotic between virtually every round. He also needs to get a better nutritionist and change his s+c coaches to have any chance of the sort of career we had hoped he would have, because his physique is hampering rather than helping him atm.
