On a good day it could refer to both their “loyal and massive” away following or the goals they concede ... probably a bit desperate on my part ... but always worth a go!

Bristol Rob Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 Thought it was time to remind ourselves of when former Rovers manager Garner came back to the Mem with Swindon. Warning.

It's more funny than embarrassing. Whilst it remains a bit of a longshot they do have an outside chance of making the playoffs, but it isn't a serious proposition unless they hit form soon and win 5 or 6 on the trot. It's more likely for them than us, but not really likley for them. As for City. Well, we've finally managed to get all the players kicking in the same direction. So things are looking up. I don't think we'll be in danger of a relegation dog fight this season. If Derby and Reading hadn't had points deductions I would be less confident though. We'll maintain at least a lower mid table position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
