    Will @RumRed allow us to take the piss now?!

    Yes, it’s the FA Cup.  Take a little time out on the naughty step to realise why one Cup you can take the piss out of them for, and the other not.

    I’ll get Quentin Blake to draw you a nice picture book tomorrow to help explain.

    Said he was taking a brake from here, got fed up with all the anti Celtic shit he was getting. 

    As a fan who supports both a local rival and then a Scottish one with religious, and political, ‘baggage’ it’s no wonder he got shit tbf.

    Not originally they were aimed at some of the comments about the crowd size and comparison that was funny IMO it was banter plain and simple.

    Yes the powers that be have truly ****** this competition up in another attempt to benefit teams in the prem and at the expense of the 2 lower leagues, IMO they are looking for a way of choking the life out of some clubs to eventually justify a smaller premier league.

    Fair enough, my view of this is that their crowd was too high for this competition and they should be embarrassed by having that many there.

    Wait till Friday night then and hopefully join in then perhaps.

    The shortsightedness is not the fault of us fans it's the fault of the powers that be and the fault of being at the level that they are at, I for one might have some sympathy for your view if gas fans actually woke up and smelt the camel shit but far too many of them actually believe that they are/were a big club and they are not, they are almost certainly at their level and even possibly over achieving.

    My comments are aimed at this particular competition not the gas.  

    The competition is now a joke, the gas made loads of changes and only 1500 turned up, they’ve done their job.  

     

    Remember it wasn’t long ago you were probably stood at Wembley in the same competition.

    I was only noting it, not mocking it. 

    I find the result more amusing and listening to Marcus Stewart clearly very embarrassed. 

    I realise my opinion maybe ‘odd’ but I look back at our record in that cup whilst in the lower leagues and I enjoyed the runs and Wembley, both the old and the new, I honestly couldn’t with the new format.

    I’m also still concerned it’s the start towards B teams in the lower leagues which I’d hate.

    Rovers much as I like to take the piss deserve an honest run at a cup that although, pisspot as we called it, led to some great memories for us.

    We’ll also end up back there again at some point no doubt and therefore it is up to the supporters to make their point now.

    I really don’t want prem b teams at the expense of other clubs in the cup or the league so, for once, I am not laughing at the crowd or the result, and anyone that does is shortsighted in the extreme.

    Charm will get you everywhere..! 

    If clubs were really wanting to protest then they wouldn’t be putting their first team out for the fixture. 

    I fully understand and appreciate why supporters would boycott. 

     

    They didn’t as far as I can see, about 6-7 changes.

     

    There is plenty to take the piss out of without having to resort to a cup competition that all supporters think has been hideously devalued by the inclusion of ‘b teams’.  Keep your powder dry, they’ll screw up something important soon enough.

    Why does it bother you so much?! 

    I can see the reason that all clubs aren’t supporting the competition, but come on. Us having more away than they had at a home match IS amusing! 

    Because it makes you look like a partisan imbecile that doesn’t understand the historical structure of the football league, that’s why.  

    Think MK Dons.

    More reds at Fulham tonight than the Sag attendance at home

    :laughcont:

    I don’t get it bob, you seem to be a ‘mature’ fan, can you not see why people would want a crowd of zero at that match?  

    I’d bloody hope we would do if we were in the same position.

    edit: With our history of travelling up and down the leagues they may actually be doing us a favour if they can get shot of the ‘premier b’ side bollocks in the lower leagues.

    I’ll laugh as long and hard as the next City fan but this is not where to do it if you value football imo.

    The Gas must be at their lowest ebb. City flying high in the Championship, beating Sunderland and Fulham away, in successive matches. Manchester United at home in the Quarter finals of the League Cup. They are currently being beasted by West Ham's Youth Team.

    Except for May 3rd, could this be their most humiliating moment?

    Even they made 7-8 changes, they are not taking it seriously as the competition means less than nothing with the new rules.

    If you’re going to take the piss out of the gas do it over the right things and enjoy our bloody match.
