You didn't have to say that Graham, but it's very good of you to do so, and we're all very grateful that you did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathredwood Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Forbes 2016 Billionaire list comes out..... http://gaschat.co.uk/thread/6108/owner-richer-steve-lansdown My favourite part of the thread is how those of them who once believed the hype are now trying to shame the OP for starting the thread! It seems it no longer matters what money he has... It's about what he is prepared to do for the club. In order to remain positive they now believe that this middle aged Jordanian Chelsea fan who was born into a wealthy family is going to become the greatest president in football club history! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How on earth do they all just 'assume' their own is wealthier? I thought the EP were alone in their unique reporting methods of pure guessing, but apparently not. I like that its only been a couple of weeks and already some of their fans are embarrassed by how most of the fanbase have reacted to the news. They're even coming around to the realisation that they might not ACTUALLY be the most popular club in the whole of the UK and could even be going down the path of dislike! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son of Fred Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 7 hours ago, ten minutes of rough said: All six of them?? Didn't they win 4-1? Had to look it up, always have to look it up when they win, only losses get reported on here, odd that. Still they are 6th now, and hanging in there, looks like the new money has made a huge difference already. Credit where its due-bounce back from the wilderness at the first pop,in with a genuine shout of an immediate return to league one..and there are a rumblings already about the manager now they have money to put in the meter.I kid you not.

KeepUpLino Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Had to share this text I've just had from one of my gas head mates... I almost wet myself!!!............ Not messing about is our Wael! "We need a new stadium" "Whats the best stadium in the country?" "Wembley" "Ok lets get the guy who built that in then" "Done" Feeling good about our club and its future Wael quoted last night "we will make Landsdown eat his words" about no one remembering Rovers in a few years time WHAT'S ALL THAT ABOUT!!

Gasheads bang on and on about it, Nailseacookie was even going to post a video on here years ago showing him saying it (presumably whilst sat in a huge chair laughing and stroking a cat) but as of yet...nothing. Have they let their victim mentality get the better of them and got the wrong end of the stick (ie 'Ragass Rovers') or did SL genuinely come out with some banter towards the Gas which has successfully had them crying and bitching for years?

Rudolf Hucker Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Certainly doesn't sound as though their multi-billionaire owner, nor his family, will be opening their own wallets to pay for a "world class" stadium to house the 6634. Deep pockets they may have, but evidently very short arms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly! Nearly 1,000 less than the messiah's first game in charge against the mighty Morecambe was it?! And I'm loving the slow realisation amongst their paltry fanbase that the new owner ain't as rich as they thought! And with perfect comedy timing Lansdown is recently announced as being worth nearly two BILLION dollars! I know there are drawbacks to being in a two club City, but there are comedic advantages too!!! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Hucker Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Of course, they are talking about a multi-use stadium but there's no rugby with which to share now. Perhaps they should consider speedway and greyhound racing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
