The only update I can see anywhere is on your site saying that they going on sale. No update saying its sold out, or confirming the number you were allocated - only that it was still to be confirmed, before they went in sale. Can't see any update beyond that though..?

It was on the website around 10 days ago and sold out instantly to season ticket holders. Swindon complained and Rovers said they would review it on Monday just gone so we have to assume that they didn't change their mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hinsleburg Posted September 27, 2021 Report Share Posted September 27, 2021 So I've heard that there has been a 'pretty spectacular' falling out behind the scenes at Rovers and a number of coaches (believe mostly youth) have left/will be leaving. Will be interesting to see if anything comes out next few days! (I know nothing more than the above so don't have details) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonR Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 The sags could save a lot every year if they found a way to fertilise their pitches with the contents of gaschat. Henbury gas alone could fertilise a pitch with one post id guess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have heard the total opposite. Majority of Players can’t ******* stand him apparently. Think it’ll be telling either way to see how they perform against Swindon after scabbing a win Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
