Cue horse punching, tears, incoherent ranting etc. It's almost worth giving them hope - only to see it smashed like that. Then phoning radio bristol in tears moaning about thatchers era and divorces 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr X Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Let's just hope it's a double relegation for them and they're back to playing non league football again. The sooner Rovers disappear for good the better! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sooner Rovers disappear for good the better! Nah, then the comedy is finished. I'd rather them have a nice drawn out stay in non-league, still clinging on to their delusions of grandeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be happy if they finished bottom of division 4 of the Downs League if it wasn’t for the affect (or is it effect) they would have on the other teams in this league. Imagine how Racing Mouse First, currently in 10th place, would feel if they had to play Rovers in a relegation decider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a regular but he heard the music and thought he'd come in. Turns out he was Gas. Found out I was a City fan but we got on like a house on fire. He was quite pissed mind. Know quite a few Sags in Caldicot - 2 or 3 lived here for a few years but more moved in recently. Quite a few City as well (probably more).
