However , a good mate of mine (gas ) sent laughing emojis by text and a message saying donkey Derby . Typical of those ***** , he’s more elated with us losing than those Neanderthals being in a relegation dog fight in a refugee camp ravaged by high winds and lost to Rochdale ******* ROCHDALE Any Rovers fan who's sending his City supporting mate a piss taking message, must be an even bigger moron than I've given the rest of them credit for..! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gert Mare Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 “We’re going down Geoff” Cheered me up after a bad day at the office. They might call us “The Shit”, but they truly are shit and their usually buoyant, deluded and dwindling following are starting to prepare for life back in League 2. Also, when Tisdale was asked if they were likely to get any signings in before the transfer window shuts he pretty much confirmed that there would be no new faces at the cess pit of tents. Goodnight Irene. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasbuster Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Well, at least the 2015ers seem to have finally accepted that Wally Al-Qaeda is not a billionaire.

As I understood it, he had some sahre of a bank (A Bank) that was only worth 400 million..! His personal net worth is something in the region of abou 15-20 million, isn't it..? Far richer than I'll ever dream of being, granted... But then I don't own a football club that heamoriging money, or claim that I could have bought pretty much any club in the land..! Their delusion stems FAR deeper then thinking he's a billionaire. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the last 120 years we’ve averaged below 10k in 27 seasons. In the last 100 years they’ve averaged below 10k in 63 seasons. So clearly this Sagheads theory about us only having higher attendances because of Lansdown is bollocks.

Of all the things that keep me up at night re City, and there are a lot I grant you, the Rent Boys catching us ranks an emphatic last on that list. Indeed, bring on their relegation! If you’re going to use the wrong “too” and “their” then make sure your logic at least is impeccable. Suffice it to say this doesn’t hold up.

Bristol Oil Services Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Rovers' crowds are shit in part because "their" ground is shit. But "their" ground is shit, because their crowd is shit. And so it has ever been thus, and goes on. Meanwhile, City’s crowd is bigger because our ground is better. And - you guessed it - our ground is better, because our crowd is bigger. This is complex, and a bit difficult for yer common-garden Gas munter to grasp. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the most tinpot nonsense imaginable...the whole “ha ha, you could be playing us next season if we go up/you go down, how embarrassing for you...” Bloody hell... It wasn’t that long ago we were a division below Yeovil, I don’t know what their excuse is for not being able to get above us in the League anytime in the last 2 decades? At least 5 current National League sides have been above us since the Gas last managed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
