We may have lost the battle today but we have definitely won the war: we got to return to Bristol, they have to stay there.

I queued for ages twice last season for the portaloos before discovering near empty loos at the back of the stand....

Anyone know who the Swindon player was? Couldn't see his number and I don't know any of their players to recognise him, but I do feel like turning back and waiting for the**** to get in his car. He was tough as **** when he knew there was no chance anyone would have vaulted the barriers to chin him

Where's a rotten tomato when you need one....

I don't agree with the flares - adds nothing to an atmosphere IMO and never worth the risk of a ban

Quality not quantity - we will win

Just to buck the trend slightly, I for one will be popping the champagne corks when Rovers move into their new stadium outside of the City if Bristol, as we will finally be rid of them for good. I can't wait.

One Team in Bristol! Again! I wonder if you lot will be as bitter towards your new rivals Cheltenham Town as you were with us?

Speak as you find, Pepsi old foe.

Or maybe he is always trying to wind City fans up, bizarrely by pretending to be a City fan, but forgets that people have memories of his previous posts where he has revealed his/her self as a gashead? They just ain't clever enough to pull it off.

Looking at your historical posts you are a gashead, so why do you describe Rovers as "they"?

Correct, we do have a massive club when compared to Rovers. Our attendances alone are twice the size of yours and our dumbed down version of the stadium redevelopment will still leave us with a capacity of 5,000 more than your bowl. You lot are having your moment in the sun because you won your JR, but, as has been previously mentioned, we do not have problem with your new stadium (personally I think it is dull and uninspiring), we have a problem more so that you managed to win your JR and ours is still so deep in the legal mire that it would be years before we could even imagine getting to Rovers' build stage at AV. Whilst I liked the design of AV, things have a way of turning out for the best and City staying at AG is actually very pleasing and satisfies most City fans as we are staying at our home for 110+ years. So any gloating from you lot should really come with a warning: we will have a revamped AV and my gut feel is that our worm is beginning to turn after five years of decline. So if you apply some objective thought to the process, whilst Rovers will see a spike in attendances and this will probably breed some relative success for them as well, City will also be going through a similar scenario, but with the structure already in place and the backing of a billionaire. Have a think about it, Pepsi, and there is little to actually gloat about. Most Rovers fans I know are too thick to see this, but maybe you could surprise us?

I prefer the reality, which will be Bristol City of League One. It is the equivalent of the real Barcelona playing in League Two in terms of size and status though, I'm sure you'll agree. Good luck in your quest to avoid relegation to non-league football. Yet again you deluded lot got your wild predictions of promotion, overtaking City and dominating the world horribly, horribly wrong. Much to our continued amusement.

I believe that nobody would talk of Bristol Rovers anymore primarily because you'd renamed yourselves Barcelona of League Two. Ironically that didn't go to plan either.

I disagree. There has been a massive change in effort and application from the players since SC took over from SO'D, in my opinion, but he can't completely change the negative streak that runs through this club overnight so there will still be performances like yesterday's shambles more often than we'd like.

It may be easy to deride Cotterill over his 'I'm a winner' comment, but the message he was giving out was 'I ain't standing for that shit from one of my teams', which is actually quite refreshing to hear from a manager in this day and age. He looked genuinely angry at what he'd witnessed, which is no different from any of us who travelled up there and how we all felt watching it. Whether he has the capability or the right mentality in his squad to avoid such an abject performance from happening again is questionable though.

Their pitch has been ruined by the weather so they have had quite a few games postponed.

Yes - no need for any equations as it is simply just funny and in no way sad. Very, very, very funny in fact!! If they weren't such a bunch of ***** about our new stadium attempts then maybe they would have some more sympathy from us. Actually that would have been unlikely. For all you gas reading this - remind yourselves of how sanctimonious (too big a word for them?...) you lot were when you thought you got your new stadium and how you were going to be Champions League before you knew it and then understand why most City fans find this news hilarious!!

It is not SL, I can guarantee you that. It was the mention that the person behind the JR is wealthy that sparked the paranoia from that lot that 'Pantsdown', as they so humorously like to call him, was that person. They are weird.

I took the liberty of browsing their forum this morning and the vitriol and bile directed towards us is just incredible. It is so OTT that it is comedy gold! We seem to have got right under their skin and yet their own evidence suggests the JR is absolutely nothing to do with us! What a bizarre bunch of simpletons.

It's a conspiracy and that pesky 'sheed', Lansdown, is behind it! I just know it! A conspiracy, I tell thee!

I can definitely confirm that we are laughing at you!!

Why should I, oh moral crusader, when I didn't make the initial comparison? Why not set up a poll or something? Let us get back on track - Holloway is as anti-City as they come, so I wish him nothing but failure.

I see plenty of references to Swansea City (Wales' first Premier League team) fans as gypsies, so take your moral crusade elsewhere.
