I just want them down ASAP. The longer it goes on, there is more chance of them wriggling out of it (unlikely, admittedly).

Absolutely but bottom four will do for me. The natural order of things will have been restored with the gap being two divisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merriment not 100% though. Yes Cheltenham will probably be going up to replace one of them, but FGR & Exeter have lost form lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 75 Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 As long as they go down not bothered where they finish. Just looking at the league 2 table there is some horrendously long journeys for the rovers masses to travel too . Hope FGR or Newport go via the playoffs.

The gold standard of comedy relegations is where your fanbase has already celebrated staying up and have hung up banners to that effect, then you play an opponent wearing your away kit on the last day and from a combination of results that your shit-for-brains fans haven't foreseen you suddenly aren't staying up any more. Cue horse punching, tears, incoherent ranting etc. It's almost worth giving them hope - only to see it smashed like that. 6 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Army 75 Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Rovers going down will put just 2 leagues between them and the likes of Chippenham Town , Bath City and Dulwich Hamlet. Mind the gap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WessexPest Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Saw this on Twitter from a Swindon account (hence the hashtag):- Relegation projections... AFC Wimbledon 5.2% Wigan 10.2% ---- Rochdale 89.1% Northampton 96.7% Bristol Rovers 99.3% #STFC 99.5% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, even worse than living through 2 divorces and the Maggie Thatcher years. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
