I'd say it was the period between 1986-1991 that the Sags had their most purple patch and they only picked up results against us by trying to break our players legs (Alexander v Smith) and spending 90 minutes hoofing it out of their box and ending up with luck like you wouldn't believe. 1987 Gary Smart for me was the most unbelievable one of them all. 

 

Ah, the "Alexander". I remember when it was shorthand in the pub for "One swift half and I'm off"

In genuine sincerity, it was great to see Rovers fans appreciate all you guys applauding in the 9th minute for young Bailey Cooper.

Genuine respect from some Rovers fans.

On days like that, I am really glad that as humans, we can forget about Blue v Red, and show compassion and respect for a young life so tragically cut short.

Well done to you all.

"The proposed 21,700 seater stadium, a joint venture with UWE, was granted planning permission on January 17 2013 with a five year expiration date set on the consent.

That consent is due to expire on January 17 2018, meaning that work must begin by early next year at the latest if the club are to avoid having to reapply for planning permission."

So as The Gap prepares to come of age in 2018 and gets ready to celebrate its 18th birthday .... their planning permission for UWE expires today!

Completely agree. Also worth mentioning, Norwich fans joined in with the applause aswell.

So what happens now then? Can UWE do something to keep the PP without the sags or is this the end for the UWE stadium as it was dreamt of?

UWE have been doing a few bits of paperwork recently but they were recently (in S Glos Council's letter of January 5th) told today was a deadline...

"It is critical to note that the final two conditions and implementation needs to be made by the 17th January 2018 to allow the planning permission to remain extant."

The Pipedream Arena, 2013 - 2018

It was never going to happen, they would have to have spent actual money after all. Btw how many Tilsons have they wasted on these proposed new stadiums? :whistle2:

To commemorate this 5 year anniversary, the 'NotYetihad'* is to be renamed the 'No Camp' with immediate effect.

 

*Credit to whichever OTIBer originally came up with that nickname in years gone by.
