Gash logic meant this shows Rovers are only one goal worse than Villa. A few weeks ago P'boro' scored twice v City and lost. Today P'boro' scored twice and beat Rovers. Will gas logic admit therefore City are better than Rovers? No Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was working in a couple of hospitals in South Wales last week (Royal Gwent and the Grange for those that know the area) and was told about a coach company that was charging £50 return from Newport to Bristol for NYE, someone made good money!

I can't deny it's a wonderful city I've been many times in the summer around Cabots & the harbourside. In my younger years also has nights out at Papillons and the beer Keller and even stopped off for something to eat one night at the black & white cafe in St Paul's Edited January 8, 2022 by Shaun Taylor 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
