Do Viz still have ‘Up the arse corner’?

“Fire doesn’t stop Gas” ? Cringe. I thought they were suspected of starting the fire at Eastville? As for having pictures of City pitch invasions and aggression, maybe they should include pictures of Rovers fans ‘aggression’ so their younger fans know the truth about their own club? There’s plenty of examples. They could also include newspaper cuttings about ‘boob cricket’, attacking animals, throwing missiles at opposition mini buses and even programme notes from their own management having to tell them to stop being racist. Above an urn containing the ashes of their own self respect they could have a mural saying “He’s headbutted the window, the sp*z”.

I remember playing against him when he was in South Street Primary School. Good player. Oh yeah, FTG!

They’ll have near to 10k (include Sunderland fans obviously). Afterwards they’ll be all over Social Media claiming that this (once in a season) bumper crowd proves they’ve outgrown the Mem and have huge, loyal support that we can only dream of. Then it’ll be back to 7.5k tops for games against the teams they play most seasons.

Lansdown could give them £100 million and they’d still find some way to balls everything up. Proper Clown show. No wonder this thread is so long.

That’s ok Lewis...we can’t stand you either, Nob head.

I actually laughed out loud when the nutjob said about settling for the Mem and playing in front of 10k-ish crowds in L1 or L2. They haven’t regularly played in front of 10k-ish crowds since the early 70s. Paranoid idiots, they’re wired to the ******* moon.

There’s a blast from the past. ”tick tock shitheads, tick tock” How’s that working out for them? ?

Well, it was only a matter of time. Once again it’s almost as if they’re deliberately trying to make themselves look as dumb as **** just for our entertainment. Belters.

This is one of the many, many reasons they are loved and adored all over the country unlike us “gert ******* shithead fugs”. Under 8k Gas again? Its what they do....

Villa have actually achieved things, they also have a genuinely large fanbase. I dislike Villa and a lot of their fans come across as arrogant (in my experience) but at least they can back up their claims. It’s hilarious that so many Gasheads seem to genuinely believe they have a large fanbase despite all the evidence to the contrary. Bizarre.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard a City fan claim we have a large fanbase and we average over 20k. Everytime there’s a thread on Slagchat about how hard done by they are (which is every ******* day) at least one of the belters comes out with that “we’ve got a large fanbase” rubbish. I don’t know what they’re averaging this season but I do know that they haven’t had over 9k Sags watch a match at home this season in L1 and their attendance the other night was about 6800. Is there another group of fans in the country who are as utterly deluded as Gasheads?

Really? But, but, but...

Haha, mixture of anger and confusion. Looks happier now...?

Yep, this was the standard Facebook response from Gasheads at the time. I bet they wish he’d pissed off to Oxford for free now ?

Matty Taylor again. 2 years on and they’re still crying about it. Brilliant ? Yes...yes thats right, you paranoid belters. SL really cares that much about your hilarious little club that it would bother him greatly if you got to the final of a cup competition that’s become worthless. Whilst we’re at it, why don’t we send Famara, Josh Brownhill, O Dowda and Lloyd Kelly to Southend as theyre playing the Sags on Saturday?

They’ve got some some nerve banging on and on about their ‘amazing’ support, supposedly turning up in numbers week after week, “we deserve better cuz of our crowds” blah blah blah.. That is shocking. Where have they all gone...the supporters who claim they never turn their back their club? ? Fickle bunch.

Tomlin did a lot to help us stay up after arriving on loan in our first season back in the Championship. Had we gone down with them getting promoted from L2 they would’ve had their cup final back. So yeah, it’ll be ”ssshhhhhheeeet ed”

Glad to see it still really hurts them that their star player couldn’t wait to come and play for us. Must make them doubly gutted that he’s doing well and that we can see there’s much more to his game than scoring goals. They’ve never replaced him and after jizzing in their pants telling everyone they were coming for us, they’re now heading in the opposite direction whilst we and Matty Taylor enjoy Championship football. £15k a week?? ? Clowns.

Fair play if they do boycott. It’s probably the one time I wouldn’t take the piss out of the Gas for a low turnout.

I think he did. Their game at Derby was a few days before playing us in the JPT (or whatever it was called at the time?). We won 2-0. Obviously it goes without saying that had the Derby FA Cup match been at the Mem instead of Pride Park the Gas would’ve found some way to get it called off with a game against us coming up.

I stand corrected ?

The early rounds of this competition have always been poorly attended Eddie, even before the introduction of under 21 teams. If there was a final where hardly anyone showed up that would send a message to the FA. If Rovers do get to the final and their fans want to go then fair enough, that’s up to them, but they can’t then complain if they find themselves playing our youngsters competitively in a few years time.

If I remember correctly they won away at Fulham about 10 years ago in the FA Cup. It was on a Sunday, they were spanking their monkeys for weeks.

Sunderland and Pompey are on an upward trajectory. Their fans may feel that they won’t be competing in the EFL Trophy for a very long time after this season (unless their own under 21s end up in it). Rovers on the other hand will probably participate in this competition that has been ruined by the FA for many years to come. I would actually have a great deal of respect for their fans IF they boycotted the final, especially as trips to Wembley are not a yearly occurrence. To do so however would take principles and a backbone. So with that in mind and knowing Gasheads as we do, I expect they’ll not only take 35-40k but will also boast about it.
