Disappointed Kent not starting

In place of who?

Feel a little bit for Mags as think he has been starting to show signs of settling in to the role, but no real complaints about that side. Would be nice to see Kent get a run, hopefully when we are cruising.

I am always left with the feeling that something is missing with Magnússon and I suspect LJ probably feels the same.

No surprises for me in that team selection to be honest, it's a big game today and a win is needed.

"It would be nice to see a marquee signing of sorts, like Sercombe was. A highly rated player from this level (might be asking a bit much) or the one below."


This guy should write comedy scripts.......

These ******* are obsessed with tents.

Give em break, it must be the first time ever in their history that ANYONE associated with the club has links to MENSA FFS.

The BristolPost strike again and what should be a very happy and proud day for us they print this shit piece of sensationalism, trying to implicate the club, they just cannot help themselves.

This must be a new thing now. Pleading the little innocent club that no one notices them anymore (apart from when they're in the news for underpaying their staff and racially abusing their own and opposition players)

Here's another snippet of VictimGas, the new craze hitting BS7. 

This tart is a ******* liar on both counts of her last sentence, firstly Eastville was not their ground it was owned by the greyhound company and secondly they torched it themselves and secondly again Trumpton was not their ground either it was owned by the mighty Bath City and that fire was started by fools masquerading as BCFC fans but not BCFC/Bristol sport per se.

Our old mate Danny Baker got it right, Bristol Rovers bunch of ******* liars.

Gardening tips from Rovers groundsman.

More shades of last season, another end to end unmolested goal, pathetic.

More shades of last season 3 players stood appealing that the ball went out, whilst Villa break from the halway line.

Shades of last season with their 3rd, virtually moved the ball the full length of the field totally unmolested, pathetic.

The word naive was invented for this performance so far.

Until their first goal we were marginally the better side, you could see the nervousness in them and the whinged and whined about every decision and then the midfield goes totally awol nobody goes with the runners and we are 1 down.

Whatever Pack thought he was doing for the 2nd goal is totally beyond me, if he thinks that being within 3 yards is closing his man down and trying to prevent the cross then something is seriously wrong with our coaching.

Now we are being mullered in midfield, we could not have played into their hands anymore if we tried.

Baker naive for his ridiculous booking, Patterson naive for twice being dispossessed dribbling across his own back 4, both full backs are being pulled to pieces, Bryan suddenly woke up with 10 minutes to go after Flint had been pushed upfield.

We play some pretty tippy tappy triangles but lack creativity.

And we thought the sags didn't have a pot to piss in !!

I bet the sponsors were well 'prowed' to receive this collectors item.

Well it would appear that it's open season, a player has broken his silence about the state of of the pitch. Sounds like another transfer request to me.

This is what the sponsors of yesterday's game were given by the club to commemorate their day. 

Is this for real?, please let it be real, they just get better and better at brightening my day's, never fail to give to the world of comedy, the gift that will just not die.

Respect, you say it like it is, as always and with none of the nastiness like on gaschat that some spout over there.

 

Btw have you thought of cryogenics, I'm 53 also and would certainly be looking towards that option if I have had to put up with some of the dross you have had to put up with both on and off the field!

Is that a procedure to stop tears when you cry?, a great gift that would be a big seller at the gas newly refurbished and moved club shop, phase 1 of 'the big build' if it happens.

Give me a break i'm 11 years older than you and my will is already written and although mainly still in control of most of my fraculties (as my late nan used to say) i'm on the slippery slope.

All joking aside, it's that hope that kept us lot going through the dark days of the early and then late 80's.

At least you are a realist.

Merry Christmas, although it looks as though all of the teams around you have woken from their slumbers, but hey 'it takes time'.

What makes you think I haven't got one already

 

If you have that was a good plan and now how about a tattoo of the new club motto and ancient Jordanian proverb " it takes time " the words entwined in a huge steaming camel turd?, should be popular with your one third of Bristol.

Not really, I just enjoy winning local derbies- it's fun

Better have a tattoo to commemorate the last time before you get any older then perhaps?.

And herein lies the problem with your bitter & twisted support base. 

I genuinely don’t think you care about how bad things are for you, IF you could beat us, just once more! 

Perhaps winning a few games against league one teams might be a better thing to concentrate on right now..! 

 

You are correct, the biggest cheer at the men these days is if we lose, so the poor bastards haven't even had much opportunity to even indulge in the particular pastime.

Whereas I wouldn't betting most BCFC fans after home games go to a bar for a few more drinks, go home take a long piss, eat their evening meal and making sure they have drunk enough to numb them before settling down to the shit on terrestrial TV and then think 'hang on before I pass out I had better make sure I actually see a little comedy tonight, I wonder how the gas got on?'.

No need for a big cheer, it's just constant good cheer.

This is just the best, lifted from that thread, the aim is to give Dopey one of the best playing surfaces in league 1, oh they are just the gift that never ends and long may it continue.

Surely the sand is to soak up the camel shit that the owner spreads.

From their site earlier.

Talking to a taff yesterday and he said swans been in talks with lickle lee and meeting up with him today,I said don’t bother he’s on a lucky streak and will soon fade

I mean, why do they bother?

 

I would have thought that Dopey was a better bet for Swansea, go to a club with a nice ground but no transfer budget, it's sort of a step up.

+ I nearly forgot shedloads of sheepdogs for him to bother.

The only reason you're on here is because you're seething. Your club is in the news for underpaying it's staff, hitting horses, racially abusing players, ours is in the news for beating one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Of course you're bitter, green with envy. It'll get better, don't worry. Doncaster on the weekend..

 

Yes Doncaster at home on their ploughed allotment, where they play their agricultural style football, so they should win.

Personally, I have never claimed Rovers have bigger home/away attendances, and have always known City are the bigger club (though if talking number of fans when a nipper growing up in Redland..Rovers had more fans|)....we have as many delusional fans as you do..though I don't doubt the stats you could show...what gets me is the misunderstanding  on the 'jealousy' front...yes, we'd love what you have in terms of stadium/investment...but to be you/like you....nope...might be from the same City but we love our downtrodden roots...though there are many 'red' areas of Bristol I couldn't dream of living in when it comes to all that is downtrodden...

 

 

 

 

 

 

"The air they breathe, the must tell tall tales. If you ask any Rovers fan where they were born they will say "I were born on the island of Sarowak". You cannot get a straight answer from a Bristol Rovers supporter."

"Mark are you a Bristol Rovers supporter? I hate to say it but they're shocking liars. I've known 3 Bristol Rovers supporters intimately, shocking liars!"

"Look at my Wikipedia page...Danny Frederick Baker, I'm not called Frederick, I've never been called Frederick in my life! Wikipedia? They might as well just call it Bristol Rovers!"

"I've quite rightly identified all Bristol Rovers supporters as notorious liars. We want an accurate two word description of every club in the country by the end of the season, so Bristol Rovers, notorious liars. That sort of thing."
