Up The City! Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 If I was them I would be worried. They have made a claim about a new training facility, history has shown with them bad news always follows good news. A sceptical person would say this is done on purpose.

DancinDannyD Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 So as I see it, you're all in agreement: Rovers are clueless, tinpot, the owner is an unprofessional buffoon stringing the fans along and hasn't got 2 brass farthings to rub together, there's never going to be a new stadium or training complex, the fans are all muppets, forever in your shadow, no longer rivals, you don't even care about them any more... I think we get the point. It's preaching to the converted isn't it? I mean, you all think it, and you all know it to be true. Yet you all still have to keep saying it over and over and reaffirming it to yourselves every day. Why? Things are going well for City right now, Europa League on the near horizon according to your manager, if we're no longer rivals why not just take a chill pill and not get yourselves into such a lather every day? Why the obsession? Really, why? We are nothing to you. Move on. Have a good weekend all! And I'll see any Rovers fans that use the forum (both long standing and newbies? at the Mem tomorrow?

For now they surely have benefit of the doubt - the clock is ticking and yes, material things will need to start to come together and be delivered over the coming 12 months but blimey, give them a chance ..

No. But surely you would want a statement of intent, backed with something financial. A marquee signing? Any signing. You cannot be happy at the last transfer window. It was an opportunity to display to the fans, exactly the type club he wants to own. He could have shown you the financial clout you all believe he has. He didn't back his manager at all. I am sure DC came to him with a list of players he wanted to buy. That must of been a very uneasy conversation between the two of them.

Whether they are as willing to stick with it through the less successful times like Lansdown has done with us remains to be seen. I think you'll find that if some of our fans are quick to take the piss out of the apparent lack of instant changes off the field at Rovers it's mainly in response to the w@nkfest and deluded predictions directed at City from Sagheads on Gaschat and Facebook when Wally arrived back in February.

If this was a domestic situation 99% of your fans would have restraining orders against them. That is how bad it is.

We find this weird obsession rather funny and we know us laughing at you for losing to the likes of Bath City is intolerable for your fans. I'll cut you a deal here. You and all of your other fans STFU about us (this includes your board and official social media accounts) and then we won't continue to laugh at you! Deal? Doubt it because your obsession with us is deeply rooted in your clubs Dna and without that obsession what else do you have left? A dodgy owner who has admitted he's only in it for the value(sounds like asset stripping) a rugby stadium you stole, only able to.sign players on free or on loan and a poxy car boot sale on a Sunday.

When this bloke was put in charge the same mate told me that "the FFP didn't count for them and he could throw as much at the team as he wanted (20 million was quoted) and just write off the debt to himself". Now "he can't be like your lot throwing money at the club and hoping", and last week I had the "we don't want to go up with the stadium we got". A few of the blues will start asking questions sooner or later surely, they cannot keep talking about all the plans and do nothing can they?

Correct, several high profile investment banks. 6 hours ago, Hello said: I guess you were in on all the conversations then? Not personally but business associates of mine were.
