Bristol R*vers dustbin thread


42nite

Recommended Posts

Twas a hot afternoon
Last day of June
And the sun was a demon

I saw Speedwell Sue
Resplendent in blue
And it set my truss steaming

She was thirty one and I was seventy
I knew nothing about deviation, she knew everything
So I knelt behind her bound in leather string
And wondered whether Rovers would sign Liam Scales from UCD

On this momentous day for world diplomacy with one of the most powerful men in the world crossing the border into enemy territory, what are the chances of Sir Steve visiting the Memorial Ground?

It's a bit late mucker - he has probably already had his shit for the day.

About the same as someone with a mild criticism of the sa*gs being allowed to post on their echo chamber of a forum.

There`s more free speech allowed in a coffee shop in Pyongyang than there is on there.

They must be down to about 20 regular posters who dictate the agenda.

Its a forum on its knees.

Just like their football club :yes:

Long may it continue. Nothing exposed, no pressure, no questions of management/board and anyone trying to, gets blown away with vitriolic rhetoric. It's always been the same, aided and abetted by the local media.

I notice this Fewer below fails to pick out the running commentary from a certain Colin Daniel fixture ? now that is pure porn, bollox to your ‘Poetry’

Buried within that decade long thread, is a minute by minute commentary of the Dagenham game and how we were ‘bottling it’. The moment they realise Browner scores 90+2 really is something to behold. If anyone has some time free, definitely track those moments down, it is pure poetry.

I heard this on the TV this morning and thought that maybe the Sags could make a few quid by suing Co op for stealing their catchphrase.

Shame it wasn't Sainsburys. Mind you if they fall out with another supermarket the boycotting could become a pandemic, eventually they might not have anywhere to shop.

There's still always Aldi & Lidl.  Isn't that where they shop for their players.  Even the infamous Paul Randall was working in a supermarket when they signed him.

Don't knock that, Clive Whitehead was a petrol pump attendant in Birmingham when we scouted him.

Well I never knew that PSR.  He had digs next door to my gran when he joined us and he would occasionally kick a ball around in the street with us even though he was a couple of years older than we were (whoops- I've given my age away now ?).

Nothing wrong with petrol pump attendants though.  I had a part time job as one as a kid and served fuel to Gerry Gow and Trevor Tainton. I think Trevor Jacobs may have come in once or twice too.

That was certainly possible because back then, people paid for just about all of their purchases in cash.

(An explanation for people under the age of fifty, "cash" is money in the physical form of currency, such as banknotes and coins).

*said attendant would often wash/wipe your windscreen for you or add a shot or two of Redex to your fuel.. (petrol which was leaded and came in  2* , 3*, & 4* star quality and price variants btw) . All the while the driver remained seated in the comfort of his motor and was thanked as 'Sir/Madam' at the conclusion of the transaction.   

Also during the fun time non PC days of the 70's , petrol station events and promotions even included on occasion ' Topless Petrol Forecourt Attendants' usually provided by well proportioned ample bosomed local blond and brunette beauties.  I remember one such 'topless attendant event' at my local petrol station  in Longwell Green so know its a fact that it happened ?. Those were the days my friends!
