Bristol Oil Services Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Saw their bus earlier, Peter Carol 'Bristol Rovers FC.' On the Portway, under the Bridge, I was heading towards the Glorious High Performance Stadium, it was going towards Shire. I tried to gesture to their Drive that Portsmuff was thataway and that he and they were heading in the wrong direction, but I think he probably thought I was indicating the he and they were a/are manual manipulator/s. And anyhow, I thought, no, they're going the right way, they're going down League Two. And they know the way there. They might not know where the goal is, but they know where L2 is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gert Mare Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Remember when they had ‘never played in the bottom division’? Now they are going to be relegated into it for the 3rd time. Tinpot 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son of Fred Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) "Hampshire live" reports that Danny Cowley has 'heaped praise' and noted the 'professionalism' of Rovers boss Joey Barton before today's clash. I can honestly say Danny,, you've nailed it- I myself am literally 'gushing with praise for the man.

Now they are going to be relegated into it for the 3rd time. Tinpot I used to work with a couple of gasheads back before the Higgs era and they said several times "Never been in the top, never been in the bottom". In one sense it's a celebration of averageness but it also underlined that we had been in the fourth. I wonder if they're now going around saying "Never been in the top, never been in National League South". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gert Mare Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 As mathematical confirmation to the basement looms I’m sure that the Sags are remembering better times, looking back on Eastville and the Tote with affection. What a massive club they were back then, challenging for promotion from Division 3 with their faithful and true amazing support turning up in ‘numbers’ to cheer on the boys in blue. Let’s have a look at those numbers shall we? Remember, they were challenging for promotion to what is now the Championship..... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanburyRed Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 The blue few relegation party in full swing......will they be burning an effigy of that lovely man Wael on Kingswood High St in protest? Or free packets of chewing tobacco for all? In truth, who cares - as they're another division apart and the Gap grows even more. I can't foresee a day where they will EVER be above us in the league ever again. And that's enough to make any gert Ted 'appy as 'ell today!!

Don`t forget they kick off at 1pm for some reason. This of course means that the legend `BRISTOL ROVERS ARE RELEGATED` will be scrolling across the bottom of the Sky screen for a good half an hour before the other games kick off. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
