supercidered Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 On the plus side for the sags, there has been confirmation from Public Health England that how ever bad the Coronavirus gets in the UK there will still be matches played at the Mem. The reason being that matches played there will not qualify as 'large gatherings' or classed as 'crowds'. Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere.

WhistleHappy Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) Bristol Rovers holding a 'sleep out' at The Mem tonight in support of Bristol's homeless.. a very commendable worthy cause, so credit for that... but there is a sense of ' irony' about the whole issue considering their own precarious position on the 'home' front. (perhaps they're raising a few bob for the kitty incase they'll be in need of homeless support themselves soon eh?)

The fans may not notice a difference but the owners will. All clubs will lose crucial revenue and some will probably fold as they would not be able to pay their players/staff. It must be a worry for poor Wally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My all time favourite game and was in the East End that night too. Utter mayhem. The G*s fans chanting in the minutes silence for Les Kew(?). I've never known the Gate that hostile before or since. Devon White diving for the penalty, Leaning saving it. Donowa scoring at the open end with a few minutes to go to finally put to an end the hoodoo they had over us at the time. Utter scenes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollowhead was interviewed after the game and described the 15ers who ruined the minute silence as a “disgrace”. For once in his life he was right. Fair play to him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS2 Red Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 They also have no idea how to make parody songs. They base their opinions to the philosophy of Craig David’s 7 days. They all want him sacked on Monday He’s taking them to Europe on Tuesday they’ve hung the Johnson out bedsheets on Wednesday And on Thursday Friday and Saturday But he’s a legend again on Sunday. Embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
