Leveller Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 On the other hand, Ive just read a report that some Scottish lad is likely to choose Rovers over Sunderland. Lets just pause and consider what that means for Sunderland fans. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 So they have a free signing from Shrewsbury and the son of the head of recruitment. They've as good as won the league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brent Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 Receiving £10M for your top scorer is soul destroying, apparently. Well they should know. And they’ve the nerve to question how we’ll spend that money but won’t question their owner who obviously pocketed the £10M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final part of the UWE 20-20? So Steve West got his sports facilities to complete the project! Not a white patio chair or tent to be seen. Meanwhile on Friday night I nearly choked on my Thatcher whist being told that the same Steve West was still in ongoing double secret discussions with the Jordanian Billionaire. Only a matter of time I was told. Only a matter of 30 million I replied. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at him boasting about their poxy 8k home crowds as if that’s something to be proud of, laughable. What those boneheads forget is that Rovers have got a catchment area of over 250k. They should be filling their tiny stadium every week, especially as they’re apparently so ******* loyal... How many people live in Shrewsbury? 60k? Shrews are better supported.

HoldenBall Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 I seem to remember a few dimwits laughing at us for signing a player from Ipswich.. they've just signed a 31 year old from Shrewsbury and a player from Havent and Waterlooville. Worth a grand total of £0.00. The gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's incredible! back to back promotions and they never "sold out" their ground. His maths (like many a gashead) seems to be off too. Rovers were a creditable 8th in the average attendances last season averaging around 8900, this is not "double" little Shrewsburys gates of 6200. Anyway to boast that the size of the club is what attracted a 31 year old lower/non-league journeyman, is quite frankly the most desperate example of papering over the cracks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His post also suggests that he thinks double of 5000 is somewhere between 8-9000. But then again, we all know how good they are with numbers.

Gert Mare Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) Bristol Rovers fans played a huge part in convincing Alex Rodman to join the Gas Gas' new winger gives his first interview He told the club's site : "I'm absolutely delighted now and can't wait to get ready. Rodman says one of the biggest attractions was playing in front of the Gas ' fans. "The fan base here is one of the main attractions. I remember playing here years ago in a night game on a Friday night and the place was absolutely rocking. There was boob cricket, racial abuse, horse punching, burning City shirts, spitting, attacking their own stewards, punching opposing players in the back of the net, pitch invasions, multiple arrests and more banning orders than you could shake a stick at.” "It's somewhere I've always managed to do quite well at, as Rovers have been dogshit for many years now. Someone reminded me that they have been below City for almost 18 years now! I think someone mentioned the goal scoring record I've had against Bristol Rovers, which is quite good. "Hopefully I can do that for Bristol Rovers but playing against them at the ground over the years, the atmosphere has been toxic and hopefully we can replicate the success I had with Shrewsbury last year and the place will be rocking this year, unless the fake sheikhs make a significant investment in the ramshackled tented commune”.
