No I was banned with no reason - I don't go around gobbing off, no point at all.

Not sure whether it is possible now, but for a long time this forum wouldn't even let you register if you had 'gas' in your username.

Just for balance @GazSaid, not sure of your previous name so can't see if you were banned from here

Sadly it's just a myth about having "Gas" in the username on here - as others  said there are many opposition supporters who post on here and as long as your posts are not personally offensive or trolling you will be welcome on here - just like other Rovers supporters are (of course you may get bit of stick)

Just for balance I tried in the past to join a Rovers forum - never got authorised . . .

PS Mind the Gap

Higgs confirms he, Barry Bradshaw, Chris Jelf, Colin Sexstone and Ed Ware will stand down from board.

Supporters club directors Ken Masters and Brian Seymour-Smith remain on board. 

So who is left on the board ?

He is described as 'passionate' about football and is heavily involved In little leagues

Perfect for the basement then !

Just speaking to a mate who has watched Rovers since the 80's (poor soul) his response was - "We've been promised major investment and a new ground for the past 30 years, I'll believe it when the referee blows his whistle at the first match in the new ground"

Several members of the family are expected to be present at the club's annual Valentine's Ball tomorrow night after taking in Rovers' League Two game against Morecambe at the Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

They certainly live life in the fast lane !

Does anyone have a link to these figures?

So what exactly was the "Typo" ?

The actual figures wouldn't be wrong as they go through auditors etc ?? Or just a piss poor copy and paste?

Where is the original document anyway?

                                  June 14 accounts.             June 15 Accounts 
Total issued shares.          8,154,720.                        8,167,690 (page 21)

Surely it has to be declared who has the missing shares?

I always think of the Maxwells.  One idiot son notionally running Reading, the other idiot son notionally running Oxford.

Of course supercrook Robert Maxwell entirely controlled both; but not on paper.

Because of the Maxwells, I thought the ruling had changed that owners couldn't be "associated" with another club owner - thus meaning Mrs L is saved

So you're posting a thread to announce you're not posting a thread?

Who do you thing you are- Stockhausen?

Almost as funny as those who post to say they are no longer going to post !

Yes, we had CEO's of other clubs we were due to play willing to pay a fee to guarantee he would play at their grounds last year.

OK - He will only be playing twice away for us this season

What I meant was, am sure for what we are paying him for those 6 games we could actually sign a player that would be of more use?

Good signing for the T20 but nothing more

Is it worth the expense? Not convinced because we would sell out those games anyway

Somerset to make an announcement at noon tomorrow...... 

Pretty clear two horse race !

Rovers being described as a "floater" oh the irony !

Sad to see Tres go but somtimes his captancy was frustrating. Slightly bemused we've got Rodgers coming straight in and taking that on and Allenby doing the 1 day stuff.  Do the likes of Hildy not want it?

Agree that hopefully it was probably time for a change - would also assume this may be the start of the end of Tres?

I'd hope getting Rogers over didn't involve him being promised the captaincy!

No problem with Allenby in the shorter form, but agree that it's interesting Hildreth not mentioned 

It actually makes a nice change having some Rovers fans on here, as long as we all get away from childish banter it is interesting hearing things from their opinion. 

Had to laugh at these scorecards

Is this the most one sided match ever ? http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/current/match/545575.html

How often would a side be all out for 31 in their first innings but still win a fixture ? http://www.espncricinfo.com/premier-league-tournament-2014-15/engine/match/859469.html

Told over Xmas that this deal is 100% off now - shame

What does that PDF document actually mean?

It reads like it is still up for sale to Sainburys???

But you sound like a bunch of ten year old arguing over who's the hardest. It doesn't matter a jot. And it's only history in that it's in the past, it doesn't need rewriting either way and certainly doesn't need defending. The history of our club is what's happened on the pitch, people fighting on the terraces is really a bit of an embarrassing chapter and should be forgotten if at all possible.

If it doesn't matter, why bother replying ?

It really wasn't that bad, it's being glorified beyond belief on this thread at the moment. Yes, there was more trouble in the 70s and 80s than now but it was still perfectly avoidable if you didn't want to be involved. All that's happening here right now is a few old men's egos being polished up a bit.

Firstly you say "it really wasn't that bad" but on here and other threads before you mention how you keep away from trouble

Very easy to say if you kept away from it, that it didn't happen but clearly it did !

I do remember one game where something happened to the padlocks, but that wasn't this one.

Correct - that was more to do with moving between sections of segregation
