Bristol R*vers dustbin thread


42nite

Recommended Posts

I've just read the methane sorters post about everyone around the country loving the gas. 

As I'm working in Swansea this week on a nhs project,  I got chatting to a Swans fan about football and he asked if we were rebuilding our stadium as we were doing really well in the Championship. I showed him the pics and he was well impressed and very positive about City. He then asked 'whatever happened to the other lot, did they go bust?' My reply was 'watch this space' to which he replied 'good,  they are just plain weird!'

He's just made a new friend! ;)

Wow the fact they can't even think of the word "lend" is really something. 

And they seem so sure than minority shareholders in positions of power in a bank can do as they wish, or have vast reserves of liquid cash rather than tied up in shares (see Mike Ashley's comment about struggling to invest extra money in Newcastle as good wealth is all tied up in SportsDirect shares).

And that's even if Hani is letting another penny go to that black hole of cash - which isn't the case if their forums are to be believed... 

(To be fair City were a black hole for cash too for many years - this year is the only one we might even break even due to the Man U game and high attendances, difference is our owner keeps getting richer and can liquidify cash easily)

While stuck in traffic last night I switched the radio on to Radio Bristol. 20p was doing a show called Having a Gas! The R*vers fans he had on as guests sounded a bit down, especially about the new training ground "The weeds are sky high Geoff" !!!

Heard A gas fan yeaterday mention the possibility of the club being taken over by a chinese consortium.  Well firstly, the chinese are more shrewd than that and secondly, they will insist on them playing in red.

it's true, Rickshaw in portishead were looking to expand

It's worse than they imagine.

The Chinese saw the state of the pitch and have decided it will be fantastic for growing rice.

Uncle Ben the benevolent Gashead to the rescue!

I really don’t understand why the EP & Radio Bristol aren’t all over the deathly silence that is coming out of Horfield, the EP seem more interested in putting out it’s usual weekly nonsense about “Rover’s fantastic fans”

They don't want to dig too deep in case it spoils their cosy relationship with the club.

As has always been the case,  but as per usual, apart from the odd couple, their fans also seem so apathetic to it all, just wouldn’t happen at AG which is why they will always be in our shadow

because the main editor of the post is a gashead, (can't you tell from the spelling mistakes)

I can garantee if it were the otherway round they'd be running hourly articles on us just to try and undermind the club (look at the handbags story this week about the 3 cardiff fans arrested for proof)

They like the majority of the swamp thing fan base are burying their heads in the sand and don't want to see theres a problem,

What ever happens (that's bad) they deserve it whole heartily for having such apathy and such blind faith, I mean whenever there's a problem at that club it's "Ted's in the away end", "It must of been ted's who travelled to oldham to cause trouble", "It's Teds that are starting all these nasty rumours"

 

They are the most insecure pathetic fan base going

oh the irony of posting that the same time as my rant.......you just summed it up for me thank you

I know. I thought exactly the same when I read your comment. So the whole Rovers debacle has been caused by the Teds has it? Were the Teds supposed to be paying for the fence and the players wages? That lot are absolutely deranged!!!!!!

Your words were, presumably, in jest, but reports indicate that their new Academy ground, The Colony, would be ideal for growing rice.

I am still loving it that he said no to the stadium :) 
It is great to finally be in a position where we can say no. Thank the lord Wael came in and employed the right people to look at the minor details and seen the catastrophic flaws in the proposal. Give him freedom of Bristol right away in my opinion :) 

Pretty much with that decision alone saved us from becoming a darlington

Indeed, i’m told that Mike Norton who is the editor in chief used to stand on the Tote End as a boy and is still a big fan, he also fell out with Gary Johnson big time because of the negative articles the EP used to write, our owner isn’t his biggest fan either
