Thanks, I'm sure there are a lot more people far worse off than me. My main point was that season ticket renewal must be way, way down on many people's priorities right now.

I have been a season ticket holder for I would guess about 25 years and I haven't renewed yet, I'm furloughed my wife (a care worker) was instructed to stay at home for 4 weeks during which time she only got sick pay and my son has been furloughed. Hopefully when all this is over I will have a job to go back to, but there is no way I will be buying a season ticket until I'm sure I can use it. Miah an organisation that I'm a part of have been running a fund for Bristol care workers that aren't able to work. We don't have much to give, but if things are tight drop us an email careworkersnetworkbristol@gmail.com or message me. If not needed then even letting wife's colleagues know etc would be great! Also goes for anyone else reading that works in health and social care and I struggling due to the current situation.

I'm sorry to hear things a tough and hope you come through it all OK. But, don't come on your rivals forum & this thread and expect us not to take the piss. And I'm not taking the piss out of anyone whose not buying a season ticket NOW. I'm taking the piss that, pre-restrictions kicking in, 600 of your self proclaimed loyal & true, felt inclined to commit to supporting your club, for the coming season. Before anyone was aware that next season would be effected. Hopefully Rovers won't be around for next season, but that's peibably wishful thinking on my part. Stay safe & enjoy the sunshine.

And I'm saying , corona virus was a big worry when tickets when on sale. I only highlighted what was happening in my household the reasons why I haven't renewed, to highlight that it would be the same ( and much worse) in many other cases. I think my family will be fine btw , in reality , if things don't work out all that well, it will probably just mean I will have to curtail things like football, rugby. horse racing and generally pissing my money up against the wall, rather than having to worry where the next meal is coming from, but I do thank everyone for their kind messages. Of course it's a piss taking thread and I don't think any -sane- Rovers fan could deny that your support , especially season ticket wise, absolutely blows ours out of the water, I was just pointing out that the figure of 600 for this season, has a lot more to do with people's personal finances and/or worries about the future , than it does to do with the fact that our football team/club is currently even more of a shambles than it usually is 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched Bohs once while I was in Dublin and really liked it there and obviously they have the big rivalry with them. After that I met a few Shamrock fans at a Celtic game and they were a couple of dicks, so that sort of compounded my feelings toward them. I quite enjoyed my visit to Galway United a few years back btw, was sad to see them go down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back on the way up now, they were bankers to win their division this year and get promoted back to the top flight, a little known fact is that they were owned for a short time by Nick Leeson the man who broke Berings bank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know quite a few Gasheads and I can assure you they also ‘socially distance’ themselves from soap and toothpaste...but that’s nothing, a few years ago the whole club socially distanced themselves from the entire Football League.
