Genuinely though, that’s hilarious I had no idea it was so flimsy, but then I should’ve known really. This is ‘the gift’ we’re talking about.

That’s not milk. Babestation on in the clubhouse again.

No more reactions allowed today but this made me howl with laughter

I did have a look earlier after they went 1 up to see that they were talking about us whilst their game was being played and they were winning. ******* weirdos. Obviously I’m gutted to come back an hour an a half later to find out that they’ve ballsed it all up as per usual

Norwich are 2 points off the play offs in the Championship, the prize of winning tonight’s game is a trip to a ground they already visit every few years where they normally get beat. I think anyone expecting Norwich to bust a gut tonight in an effort to clog up their own fixture list after they’ve got themselves back into Championship PO contention is going to be very disappointed. This has got ‘upset’ written all over it, if Rovers don’t go through I’ll eat my own nuts.

No problem. Once the 15 point gap has been reached they automatically become ‘Promotion hopeful Bristol Rovers’. Once they’re back within 15 points they can return to ‘chasing’ with a large dollop of “something speshul is happening ere”.

Quite surprised by a couple of those. Thought Fulham and Crystal Palace had won something but clearly not.

Back in the 90s there was a late night sports related show on Channel 4 called “Under the Moon” hosted by Danny Kelly. They had JP on as a guest one week, as a teenager I’d never heard of him before as he wasn’t as well known as he is today and he was asked “who do you support?” His reply was “Bristol City man and boy” So I’m guessing he’s a lifelong City fan.

Oh well, **** them!

Don’t recall that? We beat them 4-0 during the beast from the east in 2018. Memorable to me for 3 reasons: 1) Tango man still had his shirt off in the away end despite the freezing temperatures. 2) The sudden appearance after 20 mins in the far end of the upper Lansdown of what looked like 50 or so Willem II ultras who spent the first half exchanging pleasantries with the Weds fans but were presumably prevented from going back in the 2nd half. 3) and the fact we didn’t blow a 3-0 half time lead like we had 5 weeks earlier.

I was in the Open End home section, never been so cold in my life. Mates left at half time and I didn’t blame them. 2nd half was like an endurance test and the game finished 1-1.

We played Sheffield Weds during ‘the Beast from the East’. I’d be amazed if tomorrows game is in doubt.

Yes.

Yeah I remember that, pretty sure it was the game that Pulis marched across the pitch at the start lapping up the hate. The poor bloke who passed away wasn’t even that old.

1) There are obviously individual players in L1 who are better than L1 hence why Championship clubs sign them ie Jason Knight, Mark Sykes. This isn’t just something we do. 2) We’re not “struggling” in the Championship, we’re 4 points off the Play Offs FFS. Rotherham are struggling, QPR are struggling. We’re standard mid table, unlikely to go up but with a decent gap between us and the bottom 3 (at the moment at least). The word you were looking for is ‘stagnating’. The real Gap between us and the Gas is huge, 23 years and counting. Good luck beating that slaggies.

Oh dear

Let’s be honest, Norwich aren’t going to bust a gut to earn the right to get spanked at Anfield, Liverpool away has been a regular League fixture for them over the years. It would be like us drawing Wolves away.

Appreciated. I predicted that someone would pull me up on the Geography hence why the post was edited.

The rest of the team were playing West Ham and Tommy was in East Ham.

Ahh, tomorrow I will be telling everyone about our fantastic 14000 fans at West Ham today. I mean for a club like us to take 15000 to West Ham for a 3rd cup match is just superb. Excellent effort from all 16000 of us.

They’ve been there once in 20 years. West Ham is certainly more attractive to us than Norwich but to them it’s a new ground for most and a big club away in the FA Cup (even if their own fans have compared Rovers to Norwich in size in the past ). Sorry but for a club who’s fans constantly brag about their supposedly amazing away support it’s a poor showing for their big day out. If they insist on talking the talk they need to back it up more often.

“He just gets us” they’d say… ”he understands what it means to be Gas” Heard that countless times. Imagine boasting about that when you’re talking about Joey Barton

All of my in-laws loved the bloke, really lapped up the ‘hard man’ image and supposed ‘straight talking, no nonsense’ bollocks that he would spout. Gas I work with either loved him or tolerated him because of promotion, ignoring the fact that he took them down in the first place. He seemed very popular with Gasheads on Social Media. No doubt some of them didn’t like him and a few were brave enough to voice their objections online but they seemed to be in the minority and were quickly set upon by lovestruck Sagheads desperate to defend their hero passionately.

I prefer our history of over 120+ years of uninterrupted league football, playing in our spiritual home having never left Bristol over their pathetic crowds, 9 years in the Football League playing in someone else’s ground surrounded by someone else’s history.

It was. FA Cup semi final day was also big with 2 live matches at neutral grounds on TV on the same Sunday. I don’t think I’ve watched an actual FA Cup final since Liverpool vs West Ham in 200? and I can’t even tell you who the current holders are?
