  1. Knowing how jammy they are I thought even the sags won't cock that up. I tuned in at 4.30pm and started to get mildly excited when I saw the scores and that grew steadily as time seem to stand still so by the time hit 4.50pm I was stood on the sofa shouting at the TV. Outside it was like a carnival, every car that went by was tooting horns. Drivers were slowing down and gleefully informing passers by of the good news. Happy days!

  2. Makes some really interesting points, whilst I agree footballers are vastly overpaid, clubs have a responsibility to run their business / clubs prudently. I do agree they shouldn’t be picked on by MP’s to give to the NHS or other charities, it should be an individual’s choice. Why would footballers be picked out, why not TV stars, movie stars and singers. There is a lot of wealth in this country and whilst footballers are a percentage of it , they’re not the only ones earning excessive money. The Liverpool situation is disgusting a club with their wealth , similar to Spurs should NOT be asking for government assistance - the government should be telling these clubs to **** off unless they agree to put ALL staff (including players) on the same scheme. If you can afford to pay £100k plus a week to an individual, you can pay the non playing staff. You can bet Liverpool & Spurs will both spend £50 million at least in the next 12 months on new players - yet they can’t afford to pay their non playing staff. Tell them they’ve failed FFP and can’t play champions league football and get a 3 year transfer ban , they’ll soon pay their staff in full I see Kyle Walker has issued an apology for having escorts at his house , for him and his mates. When will these ******* selfish ******* join the real world. I can’t wait until the Euros next year when every newspaper is calling them hereos again. This has really made me fall out of love with our game, because of greed. Some want us to join the party and get promoted , not me

  3. Are we doing exactly the same thing furlonging staff at Ashton gate whilst the all owner by a billionaire owner who lives in a tax haven? not sure we should be throwing any stones whilst Lansdown is going to the government to pay his staff wages

  6. The reason why it says May 2014 is because that was when Gaschat was created after the club shut down their official forum. ’Roverdrive’ was also on the old forum and I remember he was very vocal about us after they thought they’d stayed up by beating Wycombe the week before Colin Daniel came to visit. Gave it the proper ‘big spuds’ about how that was a turning point in the clubs history and once the UWE Stadium was built the Gas would be “number 1 again”....as if they’ve ever been number 1 ? He wasn’t the only one and they all looked quite ridiculous the following week on 3/5/2014. Happy days....

  8. As I may have mentioned before, for the last 15 minutes I went for a long walk over Rodway Common, with my radio turned off, it wasn't until about 5 past 5 that I plucked up the courage to turn it back on, my thinking being, as far as I'm concerned they are down and until I find out different, that's it, I'll just enjoy the feeling ! If anyone had driven past, they would have seen some idiot ,on his own ,in the middle of a field, dancing, dancing, dancing a jig of sheer delight !

  11. Haha, Like you I didn’t even bother checking the scores until 16:40 when I left the supermarket. Checked Citys score on BBC, then decided to look at L2 and the Gas. I remember a strange feeling of slight disappointment seeing they were 1-0 down as I presumed that either Wycombe or Northampton will have let us down (how gutting would that be? Gas lose but so do at least 1 of the other 2)...then I scrolled down the page ? The next 10 minutes seemed to take an eternity. Just think Cardiff got relegated that day as well. Until I see us promoted to the Prem that will be one my all time favourite days. I got so pissed that night ?

  12. And yet you still find a snide, critical remark. “they put it in in the first place”. The initial agreement had a “contribution” to fixed costs. They’ve now removed all costs. An analogy might be that you rent a house. You pay the landlord £1,000 per month. You are then responsible for the gas, electric, water, Sky tv, council tax etc. They were giving it rent free but were asking for some of the running costs to be covered. Just like you’d be expected to pay the running costs of a house you rented. Stop being so critical. This is a positive thing. Why try to poke around at it and find something sinister.

  15. I`d been working in Shaftesbury and stuck 5Live on about 4:30 to see how we were getting on at Crawley only to discover what was occurring in Horfield. That last 15 minutes was agony but when it was over I had to park up in a layby on the A303 I was laughing so much. As with a lot of us I guess, my phone then proceeded to go ******* mental with texts!

  16. yes they were very convincing I even thought they couldn't get relegated so I didn't bother checking their result on that fateful day ,got a phone call from my brother whilst buying some paint at B and Q informing me that if rovers didn't score in the next 2 minutes they were down . Happy Days

  17. Looks to be heading that way. Sounds as if there's only two people owning/running the club now, Wael and Starnes, the latter who answers to Wael. I think Wael is using the current crisis to his advantage and will become even more of an invisible figure when the future of football is decided. Anyone asking questions has been removed from their positions and there is now a divided supporters base. Those that are blind and cannot see and, those that are aware of what's wrong but, can't do anything anyway, which covers the first group as well. If Wael did turn up, I don't think they'd be carrying him down the Gloucester Rd, well, not triumphantly anyway.

  19. Well done to WBA CEO... Unless there's stuff not in the public domain, middling and lower earning staff furloughed, rugby 25% down- top brass paid as usual. Granted, no WBA players have yet taken a cut or deferral and granted they have parachute payments but Mark Jenkins is leading from the front here. Presumably the 20% is still being topped up by the club as it would be if WBA furlough but takes character to lead from the front- as Leeds and Brentford (and possibly Birmingham) players have shown- Man Utd in the PL.

  28. I for one think it's damn decent of the Rovers, at a time of no football and not much of anything going on, to slide their soap opera into top gear and provide us with humorous distractions through these quiet days. Not least of which being Ken Masters' haircut.

  31. A dense crowd gather on Mount Calvary as Jesus is hung on the cross . Near the back Peter hears his Lord calling, ‘ Peter , Peter ‘ He pushes past the Roman guard who slashes at the disciple with his sword and cuts off an arm. Still he hears the call, ’ Peter, Peter , ‘ Determined Peter struggles to advance when another guard strikes him taking off his other arm. Unperturbed , the loyal servant, continues on his way . ’ Peter, Peter ‘ ‘ I hear you Lord ‘ Seeing Jesus closer still , Peter is encouraged , when suddenly, another guard strikes him cutting off his leg . ’ Peter, Peter ‘ , the voice sounds , ’ I am coming Lord ‘ With all his strength he makes a last push to the summit where another guard cuts off his other leg . Exhausted the man falls to the ground at the foot of the cross. ’ Peter , Peter ‘ ‘ I am here my Lord , what is it ? ‘ ’ I can see your house from here ‘ .

  37. I think the government could be missing a trick here. They should be seeking advice from BRFC. They have been setting the standards for what we are all doing now, for a long, long while. Staying at home - Social distancing on the terraces - Panic bulk buying stock (which then goes out of date) - Putting complete faith in the words of their leader -

If it's to do with the inept way the club is being run well that's something else. I ******* hate you as a poster. You and your fantasist SC mates. I hate your continually poisonous bullshit on here and anywhere you can spread it. Why don't you all **** off and club together to buy Larkhall FC so you can live out your Walter Mitty dreams of being football club owners and leave BRFC alone you deluded, self promoting, circle-w**king, dinosaurs. Dont sugar coat it. Say what's on your mind.

  43. The board have accumulated so much debt that insolvency on our current trajectory is a certainty. The SC and the PC can see this and try to do something whilst we have people like you cheering from the sidelines as WAQi sets course for oblivion. You have more in common with shitheads yet call yourself a Rovers fan! Who needs enemies when we have fans like you. Hahahaha you delusional ****. FWIW it's not a fact. As long as WAQ continues to put his families money in to the club we survive. As it stands, the moment that ends, so does this football club. P.S. If you want to get out from behind that keyboard and say that to my face, you're welcome to drop me a PM and arrange a meet up. Thick, violent and a shithead then.

  44. Ah yes, Johnny Harding..........the guy that tried to get me and my mate thrown out of the "hospitality suite" at Trumpton (1-1, Super Bob's debut) because he knew we were gert teds, despite that we had been invited by a more senior Rovers president (at the time) and we were in our best bib and tucker ! Mr Harding was told in no uncertain terms by said "worthy" to mind his own business and don't be so childish !
