I hope the “Play with a legend” organisers are providing the inclusive water & energy drinks. Otherwise they are very likely to be out of date. Sure it is at the Mem?

Ska Junkie Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 If we're 'the 2012 'ers', is it just me that thinks it's ironic that we've done more in 6 1/2 years than they've EVER done? If I were one of them (yeuch!!) , I think I would be giving posts some thought before trying to take the piss out of the far bigger, better supported (by an absolute mile), just better in every way, club up the road tbh. I shall now proceed to the toilet where I shall vomit profusely after saying 'if I were one of them'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted March 28, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 This doesn’t mention a stadium, but then again, it doesn’t say there won’t be one, but with increased residential and no car parking, can’t see it fitting in.

Proper arse end of Bristol there. Very few Rovers fans will be within walking distance so they'll have a huge proportion driving. Suits them down to the ground.

Boring Sag Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) 9 hours ago, Bar BS3 said: Their anthem = stolen (from Plymouth) Their ground/campsite = Stolen (From Bristol Rugby) Their colours = probably copied from us, as we used to play in Blue, before they did. Their nickname (Gas) = Stolen/adopted from a previous slur. Unique because nobody else would be moronic enough to embrace such a stupid nickname. Thier official nickname = see comment on Club Badge. Their kit = unique(ish) (nobody else apart from some Spanish lower league team would be seen fldead in that monstrosity. Their support = Bang average/poor, considering the size of the City they are based in* *currently based in, now that they are back from Bath, but until they move out to South Gloucestershire. Their club badge = Unique, because no other club would attach themselves proudly to “pirates” who are infamous for Rape & Pillage. Kind of appropriate for them though, given their recent history. Your points are all right to be honest, except I kind of disagree with the Plymouth one. Considering they only sang it for a grand total of 45 minutes before we equalised and I believe went onto win the game. I wouldn't consider it stolen because it wasn't ever a club anthem. Did anyone see apparently City were supposed to get Hudson-Odoi but the deal fell through last minute. Would've pushed City to definite automatic promotion contenders imo Edited March 28, 2019 by bodin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've pushed City to definite automatic promotion contenders imo I can’t work out why Plymouth, or Rovers, fans would want to sing some dirge about an American Prostitute. Maybe Plymouth realised how bad it was and happily let you lay claim to it. You can have that one..! I’ve not heard heard anything about Hudson-Odoi ever being linked with us. When was that supposed to be..? It can’t have been recent, if he’s now in the England team, surely..? Does seem like the kind of player that we’d have enquired about at some point though, so may well have tried. Obviously no chance in hell now though..!

Well if either are true, then it’s great that we are even considered as an option for that level of player, although they must have been fairly ambitious efforts. Obviously not much help, if they don’t actually come off, but at least it would show that we were trying to get what we needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weepywall Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 So a consortium taking over, how does that work ?

CotswoldRed Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 Responding to another sag who suggested they should look at a 30,000+ stadium, another one suggested... "We could if we were ever run correctly and had someone to invest in our potential.Anything less than a 20-25k arena seems pointless building for a club like us." Where is this potential they talk of? What do they have that other clubs with c8,000 fans don't have? We average 20,000 and have been in the Championship for a number of years with a decent budget. Our stadium is plenty big enough for the foreseeable future. Their own potential is drastically affected by our own success. Overestimating your own worth and potential can prove a very costly mistake. They need a tidy 12,000 stadium like Bournemouth. One which they could fill once or twice a season if they win the odd FA Cup game or host a concert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
