Dwane Sports based in Jersey = shrewd businessmen. We take 450 to Sheff Utd on a Friday night, Sky, Christmas = “Shit support, embarrassing” Rovers take 400 to Peterborough on a Saturday = amazing away support. City have wealthy English owner = plastic club, sugardaddy’s toy. Rovers get taken over by Arab Chelsea fans = Celebrate. City fans laugh at how shit Rovers are on their forum = obsessed Rovers fans start the ‘oh yes’ thread as well as numerous threads over the years on their forum keeping an eye on our Promotion/Relegation battles, put our score on their scoreboard when we are losing whilst their own team are playing in front of them = not obsessed City redevelop their spiritual home into a 27k all seater stadium = plastic, soulless shithole Rovers plan to move out of town to a bland 20k identikit bowl with no history = sounds great. Matty Taylor shafts them = snake Matty Taylor shafts Oxford = loyal hero Rovers have left Bristol in the past and they recently wanted to leave Bristol again...but apparently it’s City who are a ‘franchise’ The list goes on. That is a wonderful post PO’HH....a beautiful summary of their twisted logic....cheers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 I do wonder how the former 'shed' with learning difficulties is getting on up the Mem. Despite the face Julie confirmed no such incident occurred following his horrific beating, and the fact he was a regular in a backwater de-smutting computer repair shop, who do such a good job at fixing computers that he was in there every week.... Henbury Gas. A legend. A legend in talking bobbins. Lets not overlook his successful business that if his companies house figures are to be believed likely make him a benefit user.

Rovers drop down to the Conference - pretend it didn’t happen and continue to bang on about 1982. They drop down to the conference, they were relegated to league division 5 !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinmans Love Child Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) Thought I’d check out how the evolution is getting on at Rovers: 2016/17 Finished 10th, 66 points, GF 68, GA 70, GD -2 2017/18 Currently 10th (5 games to play), 55 points, GF 57, GA 61, GD -4 If they win 5/5 they will end on 70 points, which is an evolution of 4 points (or 0.087 points per game). Looking at their remaining fixtures, I think 7 points would be a more realistic return which would mean they end up on 62 points (a devolution of 0.087 points per game).

The mystery deepens - who was first. Certainly, the first time I read it was in one of James Clavell's Far East novels (Shogun, Taipan?) and that would have been back in the late 1970s/early 1980s. From memory, Derek and Clive were around in the late 1970s, so I would hazard a guess that they 'borrowed' the line from JC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That particular quote of Pete and Dud's is from Derek and Clive "Live" which was released in 1976. Not sure of that helps or not...!!

He released it because he thought the language and the subject matter would embarrass him and lose him work, the opposite happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILINFRANCE Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 As I suggested earlier, the quote in James Clavell's novel would have been in the 1970s so I assumed that D&C would have 'cribbed' from this. It now seems it might have been the reverse. My apologies, by the way - I seem to have an awful (and unintended) habit of hijacking threads with my trivia!

Rudolf Hucker Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 I have a 'disposable' email address which I have used over the years only to receive any and all communications BCFC related. This includes season tickets, OTIB etc. I've had this same email address for well over ten years. Today at 12.28pm, for the very first time ever, I received an email to that address containing the Bristol Rovers Weekly Newsletter. Am I alone in suddenly receiving this? Suddenly, I don't want to look in my inbox because I feel that its integrity has been defiled. Has Bristol Sport been hacked? Is it WikiLeaks? Is it Russia? Is it the Jordanian Secret Service? Is it Henbury Gas? We need answers ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
