Never heard that about the posters around the training pitch. Amazing.

Darrell Clarke really is the perfect match for them. I've never known someone so suited to managing Bristol Rovers - that's both a compliment and a criticism! You have to begrudgingly give him credit. I don't think he'd succeed anywhere else as a manager though. No real evidence for that prediction but just a feeling I have. I still don't think they'll finish in the top three. Hopefully when things do start to go pear-shaped, they turn on him. As there was even a few times this season where he was getting a lot of flack from some of them which is quite unbelievable!

I think it's the opposite. Reid and Burns are written off by a lot of people when they've been given limited opportunity and have done well when given the chance. Look at how well Burns is doing on loan and how great Reid was against Fulham. Reid has been far more influential to us this season in his cameos than his competitor within the squad, Freeman, has in countless minutes on the pitch.

Singling him out when not at the game and then people at the game saying he wasn't any worse than anybody else, that's not legitimate criticism. Bobby has been great recently. It's people looking for a reason to criticise him, rather than actually witnessing something to criticise.

People looking for an excuse to get on Reid's back I see.

It has sold out to be fair. But it's easter weekend and they're in the automatics - you'd think they would be able to at least get close to doing so.

Don't worry, the rich billionaire saviour will pay out of his own pocket like SL did.

Damn, they've got Harrison back. They might actually have a chance of PO's again now. Bizarre move to loan him out in the first place.

Have they realised their owner isn't as rich as they thought yet?

One day after watching them for the first time and he looks depressed and is already needing to go elsewhere for a fix of a decent standard of football.

I'm one of those people that love it when the Gas fail but also don't really mind when they have a bit of success. I wanted them to move to UWE (although the 'We've got a new stadium' chant against us in Sep 2013 is always so funny to look back on now) and would love us both to be competing in the top two divisions. For a city our size, it really should be the case. Whether this turns out to be as good as it looks is definitely up for debate. The seedy past Hamer has and also the fact nobody really knows what they're worth definitely should bring about doubts. However, the Al-Qadi guy spoke very sensibly and seemed smart in his interviews. They might not be rich but he can't be much worse than Nick Higgs... can he? Meanwhile...

Every time I go on their forum there's threads hundreds of pages long about a takeover but I've heard nothing about it whatsoever. Surely some media sources would have at least reported that a potential takeover could be taking place. Is there any substance to it at all?

He's not even officially signed yet, is he? Maybe we're set to announce the triple signing of him, Clough and O'Donnell.

A sense of inevitability has loomed over the club since the summer. It's no surprise people are feeling resigned. SC has been let down by the board and we now face the consequences.
