Love the picture of the guy in the shorts, does anyone know who he is ?

Great to see that the SAGs have installed a new shelter in the away end too!

I think they actually go out of their way to be as "tinpot" as possible, they actively embrace the ragbag Rovers idea

Oh the gift, the gift, the gift, just when I thought they couldn't get any more tinpot, then "Lee Nelson" comes out with these beauties

A few inflatable snakes to pass around the ground?

I think this image should be put on the side of the 75 bus. Love to see it going up and down Gloucester Road.

Love it, we should be doing even more to publicise "the snake"

And it wouldn't have happened at all if the panickers had had their way. 

To be fair LJ was very very lucky to keep his job and you can't blame the fans for getting on his back at the time, 99% of other chairmen would of sacked him but fair play to all concerned, yesterday's performance was an absolute pleasure to watch

So are you saying only people who were actually at the game can have an opinion?, I watched the same 90 minutes as people who were at the game on a big screen and had benefit of replays, grow up mate.

Calm down mate

Looks like the new commercial director only got the job because he is as obsessed about the gap as all the other sad f*ckers over there ...

 

Bristol Rovers' new commercial director on the rivalry with Bristol City

'We will look try close that gap a little bit.'

"So I’m really looking forward to hopefully meeting them on the pitch, off the pitch and there’s no reason why we can’t meet with them directly – we will look to try close that gap a little bit.”

Is that Lee Nelson?

I watched the game live on TV, that was my opinion over the whole time he was on the field, you may have a different opinion and you are entitled to that's why it's called an opinion.

So you weren't actually there and you're judging your opinion on what you watched on the telly, unbelievable

We were excellent for the whole 90 minutes and Derby got exactly what they deserved **** all, they played a team of big time Charlie’s and bitched about every decision. 

I said at Half time that there was something in this game for us but I never for a moment believed that it was going to be like it was.

Fielding 6 is playing well but a couple of rash decisions especially for the penalty and his kicking mark him down.

Wright 8 played really well all game.

Flint 7 played well but a couple of mistakes.

Baker 8 terrific again.

Bryan 8 a class act who just gets better.

Patterson 8 played well and was a threat throughout and finally found his dead ball radar.

Pack 9 he was superb and on any other day would be my MOM.

Smith 8 seems to have found his mojo.

Leko 7 he is a very dangerous player with incredibly quick feet as he showed with the penalty, ran out of steam and was rightly subbed.

Reid 9 MOM, what a game involved in everything, always a danger he is full of confidence and we will do well to keep hold of him.

Woodrow 7 played well throughout and took his goal well.

LJ 10 got it right again, tactics perfect, game plan perfect, substitutes spot on.

Diedhiou 8 to be honest it should be a 7 but took his goal really well and showed some glimpses of what he can be, hopefully the goal might be the turning point.

Brownhill 7 came on to steady the ship in midfield and helped to do just that.

COD 6 for his cameo.

Leko only 7, were you there?

I'm home alone tonight as my wonderful other half is in London for the weekend, only fools and horses is just finishing on UK gold, there is no Taggart on "Drama" so I"m fecked" so what do I do for entertainment? Come on the Rovers thread of course, I love it, "the gift" keeps me going

1500 sold. Blood crap that is for £10.00 a ticket and having not played them in yonks.

1500 is very poor, I would of guessed at 3000 plus to be honest, still plenty of time though

It doesn't make it right, as I said in my post!  Unfortunately, when people have used racial slurs, which have gone unchallenged for the majority of their lives, it is very difficult to re-educate them.  The best we can do is to make sure that the next generation realise that this is no longer acceptable or tolerated, as did the people who reported it today.

I have no idea what other Rovers fans may, or may not think about your fans - some people are very entrenched regarding the views they hold, others are able to be realistic and acknowledge that, as in most walks of life, football clubs will have good and bad amongst their fans.  Personally, I won't be casting any stones. 

Come on ITN, for as long as I can remember Rovers have had a hard core of far right and racist support.

Just had a gander on Gaschat.

Apparently them keeping Bodin is a 'real statement if intent' - obviously, that statement might have some merit if indeed they had turned down offers for the player, but following the transfer window yesterday I don't recall anyone having made a bid. So there was nothing to reject.

He has less than a year left on his contract, if any Championship club wants him in January they will get him and Rovers won't have a say in it

All this is nonsense, they're in no worse state than dozens of other league clubs that are or have been in

Yeah as i already said I didn't realise how low their attendances were. Im normally quite accurate on attendances so quite surprised to see it.

You've been listening to your gas mates too much and starting to believe their lies and exaggerations

Let's be fair to the Rovers though; An away win at a team in a higher division is worth celebrating (as we are).

Was it round two last season when City won at Fulham?

No

Is there ever a day goes by where the EP doesn't have a write up about the "wonderful" support that Rovers have
