Port Said Red

Hopefully this will mark a return to the confident start to the season.

You would have to "bid them up" though, they get so wound up when people do that to them ....

If buying football clubs was like Storage Hunters, how upset would you be if you opened the Bristol Rovers bin??

I think Higgs and co have been taking lessons from Rudolph Hess school of propaganda. Along with "if you shout a lie loud enough it becomes the truth" they are now using similar diversionary tactics as well. At the end of the second world war the Germans spent a small fortune on making a film that celebrated what they considered to be one of the great military campaigns in their history. they encouraged every citizen to go and see this film whilst the allies were breaking through the front lines and heading towards Berlin. It seems to me that this suggestion (which is all it is) of investment from lands far away, is their version of the same tactic, designed to make the unwashed forget about the imminent disaster coming from the courts.

You are right AR, they seem to think that sticking by the club without a murmur of disapproval throughout the swindling and underhand tricks that have been perpetrated by various boards and chairmen makes them great fans. Great fans would have been sitting on the pitch years ago demanding something better for their loyalty. Producing a DVD of your escape from non-league football and describing as a high point for the club is laughable and the fact that there are many of them that can't see the irony of this shows that some of their heads so deeply buried in the sand (probably in the centre circle of the mem) that they can see investment coming to them via Australia!

As a City supporter and a resident of North Somerset, I would like to say........ Come on Glos!!

Apparently Somerset hardly winning a game this season doesn't stop their players being picked for England, first Craig and now Jamie Overton. They both just about squeeze into the averages in the CC but neither of them have any form in T20 cricket which is surely more of a marker than the 4 day game.

I am still amazed we managed to get them out again!!

Any sign of a conclusion to the court case this week? It must be close to the point that UWE will pull the plug anyway if they don't get a clear response from Piggsy.

Don't think we would want to be even accidentally responsible for making them some money would we?

Are those official club scarves? They look like the tat sold outside wembley, the second one could be wheeled out anytime a team in blue turn up.

I thought the guys arguments were quite well reasoned and would be perhaps similar to the ones we would give to people sniffing around our players. I would argue that it is easier to fly to Scotland from BRS than drive from Sheffield other than that I think he has some valid points.

What was the time limit that UWE put on them to start building? I thought they wanted a quick decision so they can build more faculties instead?

Money down the drain. I guarantee it.

Ok get down the bookies then mate because you will get great odds on that right now......

It's timeshift and some of our fans think it's still April Fools day.......

doesn't hide that some of our fans need a ******* reality check.

11 matches unbeaten

It's OK some of us got it mate!!

I think there are three intentions behind the short corner, one is to change the angle of the delivery, two is to draw at least one player out of a congested penalty area and the third is to make it harder for defences as they have to hold their shape for longer.

A draw away from home is always a good result, a draw away to a team chasing a play off position is better.

Had the same problem in London once when I wanted directions to Turnham Green....

That's almost any tackle in the modern game.

I think we only used 13 players the season we got into the 1st division.
