Cider red

First row are showing a stream at 7 30. Whether it works is another matter

Unlucky and un done by a poor ref again today. Win on boxing day we could open up a gap again. We need to move up a gear after Xmas.

Bryan strained muscle on training apparently.

Noticed korey was sniffling on his interview.

Need a win Saturday now

Yes! Wilbs

I think teams have figured us out, its time for a change of personel and formation, especially away from home we are far too open, we cant afford to score 3 every game to get something.

Great win. Keep this up with another win on Tuesday, manage to nick a point or 3 against Barnsley then we could be looking at 40 points at the start of November!

Dave l fails to respond again

Harsh. Dave is always on here answering questions, you can hardly blame him for the club changing the fixture!

Crazy timing. I think your looking at 2k off the gate. The club should have done a tenner a ticket for this one anyway

ive heard of some scaling back on the extras till after the ground is open and the 3 sides thing i heard was possible if the appeal went on for another 6 months or more....

 

as for the post above about giving the rugby club there ground back... they will have left and gone and if a covenant was going to be found i believe it would be already found , the rugby chairman at  the time tried to sell the whole lot to Amtrak and then sold half the 'memorial ground land' for housing ... nobody kicked up a fuss then funnily enough!!

im all for the mem staying as a rugby ground if someone wants to pay what sainsburys are offering ... i believe the rugby club have a very wealthy owner who earnt enough in a few hrs last week to buy it for the rugby club if it is that important to Bristol Rugby?

 

The fact is it suits Rovers to move , Its suits SL and Bristol Rugby to play at Ashton Gate ... a memorail garden and the gates will remain an important place , its sadly a fact of life that things move on , it would be lovely if somethings didnt like the Mem , but lets get realistic here money rules the world and some need to face it that some on here who claim to care so much about the Memorial Ground disrespect the very place by calling it the Minimal ect ... the arguments abut how rovers aquired the stadium ect have been done .. Rovers own it its theres to sell

I actually agree with the Sag. And I think a proper memorial garden will be better than probably the worst 'football league' (if you can call it that) ground in the country. Im a bit gutted that rovers actually got their stadium and we for some reason couldn't (but hey we had a top back up plan), everything they have done has been above board and legal, or they wouldn't have got away with it. From what I've seen in the post they will build the ground as quickly as they can, and all the trimmings may not be finished but they will have enough done for people to watch football in it. Cookie am I right in that your ground will only take a year to build? or is It two?

The JR and legal system in this country is an effing farce. But that wont stop me laughing at rovers. After seeing the comments on their forum gloating last week, my feelings of being genuinely happy for them reverted back to type. It would be great to see a double wammy of the stadium being taken from underneath their noses as well as being relegated to the conference where they truly belong. Effing minnows.

Good news. never thought id say it. A common sense result for once. I'm surprised though that the stadium will only take a year to build! Goes to show how cheaply its being done I guess. Still, its gotta be better than the dump they currently call home.

Terry from somewhere. Clueless!

he rings every week and gives his moronic opinions, gonna stop listening to radio Bristol he is irritating.

Point away from home, down to ten men.

Who cares? Not I.

Bet your a happy chappy. What did you make of the game rich? I thought we were the better 11 vs 11, should have been 1-0 up through JET's shot, unlucky to hit the post.

Just heard a Swindon fan on radio Bristol, on a wind up clearly, stated the game finished 1-1, and they should have won 4-0 and been 3-0 up at half time apparently. Sounded thick as shite!

I for one am hoping they get the stadium. If it means we can both eventually be challenging for and in the championship and beyond, its time for Bristol football to get into the 21st century. Am I right in thinking the JR period for the original plans is over with next week? If so could be a massive week for Bristol football on the whole!

Fantastic result. This division is crazy were now only 6 points behind Swindon, considering they've been chasing the playoffs this season and we've had a poor one, that gap could be closed to 3 points come Saturday!

We need to cut our losses on El Bad and get rid in the summer. Not as if no-one saw this coming!

Osborne must be thinking wtf. he had just signed, was playing well and this clown comes in and takes his place.

Gonna be a really tough second half. El abd is awful imo, complete liability. His sending off could be a blessing in disguise, if we have Osborne and Williams at cb for Saturday anyway, that would be my preferred choice. Whatever happens we can take heart from the first half performance, if it wasn't for a rush of blood to the head we would probably be 2-0 up at half time.

If we can get six points from the next two, regardless of where that puts us I think we'll have a chance, but the prospect of us putting two wins in a row currently seems a bit far fetched...

I'm by no means confident of beating a poor Gillingham side on Saturday. How depressing

That is fair.

Only thing is that after Saturday we'll not have another 15 games (12, I believe). This means that with a win there (giving us 35 points) and an average of the same ratio of wins, draws and losses (4 each from the 12 remaining), we'll finish with 50 points.

While this has been enough for the past three seasons for safety, it is very much a bare minimum, with Gillingham having gone down in 09/10 season on those points.

I hope SC beats his ratio and keeps us up, but it looks tight.

I was thinking this the other day. It's gonna go right to the wire I reckon. Unless we can string successive wins together

I've said it before and il say it again. IF we win Saturday under cotteril we would have played 15 won 5, drawn 5 and lost 5. Mid table form, if we hadn't had such a shit total of points at the start of the season we wouldn't even be talking about the possibility of relegation.

Without reading the whole 3 pages; to be fair to cotteril his interview is spot on, hes as pissed off as the rest of us and im sure he let the players know what he thinks. Just to put into perspective, a win next week we will most likely be back out of the R Zone and he will have won a third of his league games with us.

Tranmere winning 2 0 so are Crewe, against sides we couldn't beat. Hate to say it but based on results we dreserve to go down

At least there is quite a few derbies, Gas, Cheltenham, Exeter, Torquay, Plymouth, Newport and Portsmouth.

Since when has Portsmouth been a derby? How depressing to have the rest lording it over us though.
