BanburyRed Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 The irony is completely lost on them as that reply indicates in graphic detail for all to see. The reason that we are able to ridicule them is because they're exactly that - ridiculous. And their only riposte is because, back in the day, they used to beat us. That's ALL they've got. We've developed massively, both on and off the pitch (disregarding the disaster of this season!), and they've just gone backwards at a rate of knots. A case in point - they managed to get relegated, bottom of L1, whilst we couldn't buy a win. Until they do something DECENT, they will continue to get ridiculed, and rightly so. In the remainder of my lifetime, they'll NEVER pass us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never read so much nonsense, and carrying around that amount of hatred, delusion and negativity is not healthy. This overly-wordy and dramatic piece of literature which includes evocative terms such as “terrorism, sadistic, and bully” smacks of a very bitter individual who feels he/she needs to justify their wasted degree in Sociology whilst hating the side of the fence fate left him/her on, and has put that together on many a dark night over probably a 10 year period, manically tweaking it until they could unleash this “masterpiece” on a Rovers forum. Unfortunately he/she is pretty representative of Rovers fans of a certain generation and he/she will be one of the one first talking non-stop about City next year and looking for our result as their own side slips further into insignificance in front of 6000 pairs of eyes. Astonishing indeed. Edited June 7, 2021 by TomThumb84 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 For a little clarity, their golden years when they used to "beat us a lot" were so say in the 80's and 90's. So I spent a little time to assess that period. Between August 1980 and October 1999 the two clubs played each other 36 times. They won 14, drew 10 and we won 12. a slight advantage but, not quite the way they like to remember it. Their real glory period was actually condensed into a four year period from January 1987 until January 1991, winning 6 and drawing 4, when no matter what we did they managed to get the better of us. So in reality, apart from that four year period of hell on earth, we won 12, drew 6 and lost 8 in the rest of those glorious two decades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Rocker Posted June 8, 2021 Report Share Posted June 8, 2021 12 hours ago, fgrsimon said: Astonishing Lansdown meltdown / Playing the victims from user 'gulfofaden' on GasChat Akin to terrorism mind! Lansdown hasn’t just been a benefactor to city, which he is entitled to do, but he’s also been antagonistic to Rovers on any occasion he can to win favour with his fan base including the Matt Taylor saga which given the fact we got the exact release fee (which was supposed to be confidential) is akin to terrorism in football terms. He’s also putting posters on the Glocs road, getting his sponsors to ridicule us through postal campaigns and trying very hard to get a club who for much of his life was a giant firm of bedminster hooligans who regularly smashed up our ground and attacked and threatened our players pegged as some “family club”. They have some normal fans of course but also a giant contingent on cocaine and cider addled specimens which dwarf, and have always dwarfed, ours, even pro rata. You think he couldn’t see all that victimisation and violence in the 80s and 90s? Was he blind? Of course he wasn’t my. That’s fine, he can still bankroll the club but to do so, and still pander to those guys and continually harrass and target us knowing full well the asymmetric history between us, is beneath contempt. It wasn’t 6 of one, half a dozen of the other. It was grown men targeting families and players in their own homes. If he had adopted the attitude of “City is my club, Good luck to Rovers but I hope we are always above them” then I would have all the time in the world for him. He didn’t, he, like a playground bully, has been sadistic and provocative in swinging his weight around, to a club he knows can’t really fight back. And the reason for this? The heinous crime which caused this ire? We used to beat them a lot, before. When we were in dire straights and on paper we shouldn’t have. That’s it. That’s what all this is about. https://gaschat.co.uk/thread/18097/bristol-owner-steve-lansdown-writes?page=2 There's enough material there for an entire conference. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he forget their little video of the chap running over the Suspension Bridge, past Ashton Gate to get to the sister he impregnated in hospital to present her with a ‘Tesco Carrier Bag’ styled baby grow for their offspring before it has a chance to choose a proper club to support other than those desperate and deluded pikey squatters? In football it’s called Banter. It’s something that historically they were always quick to dish out, but could never take themselves. Instead, when the banter comes back they resort to playing the victim and attempt to take some moral high ground. You can see the green-eyed Sag monster as soon as he starts off, but ask him if he is a jealous Sag and he’s guaranteed to say ‘no’ and then blurt on about how he is only interested in his loyal, faithful and true family club before attacking the opposition players in the goal net because their team has been awarded a penalty. Absolute deluded weapon. Thanks for confirming what we already know about the average Sag supporter and the reason why this thread continues to prosper.
