Aaron Collins interview for the Bolton newspaper.... Blah blah heading into prime of my career - hope to get goals & assists... blah blah.. help the team get promoted.... "I can't wait to be able to hear the fans.." Yeah, that will be a whole new experience for you Aaron..!

Who are we playing...?!

No, of course not - progress will do just fine at first.

I wasn't laying in to you. You jumped on a post by someone who obviously wasn't giving correct info about it having no option & your post was after the screenshot of his portent club saying that there is an option. So many who appear for England youth levels never make anything much of their career. I don't thing Bell is anywhere near at our level - yet. I'm hoping this new lad has a far bigger impact than Mehmeti. To progress, we need to upgrade. I think Sam Bell would benefit from loan, same as Yeboah.

Has JCH been confirmed yet.?

For some - the plan is to disagree with anything we do from here on in, because it isn't good old Nige..! We could surge up the table, finish top 6, win the play offs, in our 3rd Wembley victory of the season as we win the FA Cup, qualify for Europe & get promoted in LM's first season & some would post here insisting that we'd have done it under Nige anyway & that Tinnion is a snake & the Lansdowns need to get out of our club..!

You do know that the fancier named "England Elite" is still nothing more than the under 18's (or whatever age bracket it is) yeah.?! You have posted criticising this transfer, yet completely ignored the posts & screenshots that disprove that it's not got an option on it if he looks upto this level.

It doesn't change the fact that Yeboah is not anywhere even close to being first team ready.! Whether this new lad is or not, doesn't change the fact that Yeboah is not.!

Official transcript of the transfer negotiations...... BRFC - "Hello Niall, we at Bristol Rovers hold you in very high regard & would love for you join us as an integral part of our assault on over taking our more illustrious City Rivals as we continue our current & seasonal "play off push" despite currently being a little way short of that goal, we feel your record in League one would be worth building our team around & would love for you to join us as our new talisman, to be hailed & adored by the greatest supporters in English football, if not the entire footballing world.! Will you join us on our crusade...!?" NIALL ENNIS - "NO! pmsl"

Fair play Newport...!

Oh OK. I'll cancel my hotel booking in Liverpool then....!

If anyone wasn't able to get a ticket & are looking for one, I have a spare adult one for the Dolman E33. PM me if you'd like it.

Strange he didn't really make it & failed to emulate the endless list of Jordanians & Kuaiti's who have taken the English Football league by storm...!

When you are looking to Bristol Rovers to help you develop, you are probably better off calling it a day & training as a plummer or something...!

When people slate our owners & criticise their every move & demand that they sell up & move on...... we don't have to look very far up the road to see just how that could turn out..!

Oh OK. I thought it was season ticket holders until this morning & then members today...

I love that these games are getting sold out so quickly! If people don't have membership, at least, they don't get a look in - as it should be. Our fan base of people who actually attend games, other than Wembley has risen so much over the past 10 years!

Hopefully not Will somebody have stacked away the plastic patio chairs aswell - or are they risking a massive reduction in capacity for their next game.

I very much doubt that it's still a thing these days (although I know it used to be, several generations ago) Bit could their even lower that usual attendance be down to both of us being home on the same day & are some people going to their games just as a form of local football when we are away..? As soon as there is a choice, it's Ashton Gate that those people actually head for.? 7,500 home fans, on the opening day of their new cowshed, seems absurdly low.!

Exactly - he is a shit, lazy, flash in the pan (occassionally) show pony. Being Black, White or any other race, has no bearing on that & is a stupidly wrong thing to bring into the equation.

Won't let me edit the predictive text typo now.!

Skies starts all day long, but Naismith & Atkinson, currently, for more squad depth, rotation & changing things from the bench.

If we match last seasons totals without Alex Scott at our disposal, that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, in an arguably tougher division than last seasons was. It took NP 2.5 years to get to where we were - it may be harsh to expect overnight improvement on his record without a summer window or pre-season to work on things. I think with how we are trying to play now, Skyes & Naismith are being sorely missed. I like the addition of Twine & hope that Sykes' running will compliment him - Likewise, having Atkinson available for Twines set pieces would be a huge boost aswell. I expect a mixed bag for the remainder of this season & to kick on a bit next season. NP cleared the decks & paved the way - but didn't feel like we were going anywhere beyond that with him & many forget that he was probably leaving in the summer anyway. LM is showing foundations of a more controlled & deliberate way of playing, but fully expect that to take time & probably some different personally to make it click.

I love the pin stripe kits! Can't have it every season though. I'd like something really simple. Plain red with white collar & thin trim (maybe) I've always hoped we might have a Granddad style collar (like Newcastle kit of the Ginola era)

Good debut. Great header & desire to win it. Excellent new dimension to our attacking play with good quality deliveries into the box. A real shame Rob Atkinson isn't fit to capitalise.! Good addition, who I'd hope will become more & more effective as he & teammates get to know each other more.
