Sunderland and Pompey are on an upward trajectory. Their fans may feel that they won’t be competing in the EFL Trophy for a very long time after this season (unless their own under 21s end up in it).
Rovers on the other hand will probably participate in this competition that has been ruined by the FA for many years to come. I would actually have a great deal of respect for their fans IF they boycotted the final, especially as trips to Wembley are not a yearly occurrence.
To do so however would take principles and a backbone. So with that in mind and knowing Gasheads as we do, I expect they’ll not only take 35-40k but will also boast about it.
They had an open top bus tour remember for finishing 2nd in the Conference. Barnet (who went up as Champions) didn’t bother having one.
The reality is that they will probably take 26,000 of which (according to #Gaslogic) will mainly be made up of Ted’s hoping to see the Sags get beat. There will also be 20k locked out who stopped off at Wycombe on the way to smash up some of their manors, like the Harvester and Little Chef.
Then they will go on and on about how they took over 40,000 (even though this will be factually incorrect of course), how loyal and true they all are and whilst pulling each other off they’ll be singing songs about the Teds, asking where all the Teds have gone, go on about how they’ll be coming for us again, how much better atmosphere they created than the Teds (but not wish to discuss the pre-match standard violent outbursts by their Neanderthal Tote Enders obviously).
My retort would simply be....”Well, as cup competitions go, if you win a trophy 3 times then you used to get to keep it, so technically you’ve just won the Sheed’ead Trophy. Now go and stick it next to the defunct Watney Cup and enjoy League 2”

Yawn
82 happened, we are still here.
Same name, same home, same colours and 118 consecutive seasons of League football.
Wonder how long their silent, bored foreign owners will hang around for?
Bristol City (1982) Ltd as a company was wound up in 1996, so it’s not even relevant anymore, unlike 2015, the year that the Sags joined the Football League.

Apart from the ground , badge and playing in red what have you got as a identity
i then went to town on him tbh.
Well nothing compared to your lot really. We haven’t stolen a song or a ground . Haven’t stolen from our own players or from the the supporters club or racially abused players consistently or have a history of punching horses .
His reply . 82 , soulless generic bowl blah blah
As someone said a few years ago, talking about 1982 is like kicking a dog that is already dead. It’s utterly pathetic and has no effect on any City fan I know. However, mention “Tinpot” and Rovers in the same sentence to any Sag and you’d better stand well back!

A bloke who used to delight in letting me know when City were losing, along with his mate who used to get really excited about City losing and would do an excited squeally laugh as if he was literally ejaculating into his trousers at the very thought that City were losing. This is the Sags all over.

Talking of which .... from his new comedy spot in the Post ...
"Congratulations to Graham Coughlan on being appointed Bristol Rovers manager, having transformed fortunes on the pitch during his spell as caretaker boss for 5 minutes.
I wish him nothing for the future. It should have been me. And I can reveal through this column that I envy him because I would have loved the opportunity to return to the club closest to my heart, but if QPR didn’t want me then I’d have to settle for Rovers, or a second stint at Hanham Boys Under 11’s.
One or two of my old mates from Cabree ‘eef have contacted me over the past few years asking if I was interested in the job, sobbing like that bloke who went through the Thatcher years and two divorces, but I had to let them know that I would have to call the police unless they stopped harassing me and offering to suck I off if I went back. I didn’t feel it was right to start dishing out some abuse to they sh1teads until an appointment was made. Now we’re coming for them, definitely.
Now, while I am pleased that Rovers have gone for a man like Graham, who appears to believe that Rovers are the biggest club in the world like myself and a third of my old muckers from Banjo, I want to make it clear that I wish I was in his position today, but with shed loads of money and the opportunity to get Neymarrrrrrr in.
Having had the privilege of being manager before, I bottled it when I realised that I might be the first bloke to take the club into the 4th Division and I’d rather resign than have to put up with any crap from those Sh1teads!. I didn’t even get as far as an interview because I was keeping tabs on QPR, but I want the fans to know that had the club wanted me, I would have played with me pecker all night with excitement and employed one of my chickens as my number two.
Rovers always have been and always will be my club, I only say good things about the Sh1t when I am on telly through gritted teeth, but those who know me know how much I hate the Sh1t and this is why all Gasheads are as obsessed with me as they are are about Dean Windass. I crave success for whoever is in charge of the team, but the media and other professionals in the game see me as a bit crazy, a bit of a nutter who builds chicken huts and attends anger management classes along with all the other Gasheads on banning orders, so what I crave and what the reality is are bloody poles apart I s’pose? Thanks very much let’s have a coffee.
More of the same here ...

Comedy hour on radio Bristol where the gas new manager has just said that he doesn’t need new signings and the ground and training ground don’t need to be changed. He actually said that their facilities are on a par with the teams in league one and much better than Sheffield Wednesday! And they all rang in to thank him. You couldn’t make this crap up.
I said it the other day. I think the bloke is a comedy genius.
He knows that his audience have incredible delusions of grandeur, are completely deluded, thinks that winning the Watney Cup on penalties during the 1970’s automatically elevated their status to “massive club” and that they probably have other psychological problems after devouring a 1 star food rated Diamond Kebab following a night in Chasers drinking bottles of piss and getting off with their sisters.
So he has played right into their hands. I bet he will be darning a tee-shirt with Holloway’s head on it next with a speech bubble saying “Let’s all play ‘Find The Sheed’ed’” and quoting the glory days of 1990 where winning the title meant nothing, but stealing the title from “The Sh1t” and getting one over on they gurt Ted’s meant everything.
The 6 fingered ones will be jizzing on their giros and reminiscing about the Tote End by 8am in the Kingswood Colliers tomorrow.

As quoted in the Evil Post today the new Sag Manager was quoted as saying “felt honoured to be interim charge of such a big club”.
You’ve got to give it to him, he has either got a cracking sense of humour, or is one sarcastic ****** (depending on how you interpret the written word)
Let’s just remind ourselves of how big Rovers are....
Yeah, he’s hilarious as far as I’m concerned...”Big”

Are they really saying he's the greatest manager in their history?! Well yes obviously what he's done is far better than that Bert Tann who only gave them ten years of second division football including top half finishes plus beat the Busby Babes 4 0. What a funny lot they really are.
He is their greatest manager. After 92 years he managed to take them into non-league oblivion. What a memorable season that was too. One minute the headlines were “Rovers confident they will make the playoffs” only to be followed up with “Don’t think Rovers will make the playoffs” and then they derailed out of the football league and we had two divorces and the fatcher years.
Since Oggie Doggie Darrell took over they gave a gift and they kept on giving.

22 hours ago, KernowRed said:Regarding the 1939 re-election to the Third League [South], on May 3rd 1939 Evening Post, the Bristol Rovers FC were facing finacial ruin and needed £2000.00 to prevent the club folding. The Chairman Mr Fred Ashmead said the amount was needed to pay staff and players thro' the summer and one person had promised £500 but the rest was req'd soon. The following days saw public donations but they had not reached the amount.
Then, on the 22nd May 1939 Western Morning News, Rovers were compelled to sell two of their best Players, forward Curran and left back Millar to................Bristol City!
Fred Ashman was so grateful for City to aid them that way and saw them able to survive thro' the close season with less anxiety.
So history may foretell the future of Rovers again........you never know.
Surely they are the record holders for ground squatting? Nice for them to rank alongside the defunct Watney Cup, and getting knocked out of the League Cup before it even started as some of their greatest Tinpot achievements?
In other news.....
Altogether now....”How much is that doggy in the window?”.....

I hope Barnet reminded the Sags that they didn’t have an open top bus tour for winning the conference when Rovers had one for finishing second?

Official Wales FA site, tremendous stuff!
WALES SQUAD:
Wayne Hennessey (Crystal Palace), Danny Ward (Leicester City), Adam Davies (Barnsley), Connor Roberts (Swansea City), Chris Gunter (Reading), James Chester (Aston Villa), Chris Mepham (Brentford), Ethan Ampadu (Chelsea), Tom Lockyer (Bristol City), James Lawrence (Anderlecht), Paul Dummett (Newcastle United), Neil Taylor (Aston Villa), Joe Allen (Stoke City), Matthew Smith (FC Twente, on load from Manchester City), Aaron Ramsey (Arsenal), Andy King (Leicester City), George Thomas (Scunthorpe United, on loan from Leicester City), Harry Wilson (Derby County), David Brooks (Bournemouth), Dan James (Swansea City), Ben Woodburn (Sheffield United, on loan from Liverpool), Tom Lawrence (Derby County), Tyler Roberts (Leeds United), Sam Vokes (Burnley), Gareth Bale (Real Madrid).
He might as well be playing for City because as soon as he puts on a ‘red shirt’ he will be disowned and banned from the ground. They’ll turn their backs on him because it’s an insult for anyone associated with the Sags to don anything red. Even Santa has to be blue in their portaloo grotto. They will never forgive him unless he insists on wearing blue, even if it means he has to play in goal, or it will be ’Sheeeeed’ead Sheeeeed’ead’ every time he touches the ball when he comes back to Rovers. He’ll probably have to move house 3 or 4 times. ******* snake!

Whaaaat? I've been using this forum for quite a while now………… why didn't I know about our 'sleeping giant' status??? Why have none of my fellow 'teds told me about this? I must be missing the posts where this is banged on about.
The delusion of the person who believes that we think we're a bloody sleeping giant is absolutely frightening. For me, the allegation that we City fans think we are a sleeping giant absolutely sums up the thick, jealous, self-righteous 'everybody loves da gas' tw4ts. Is it any wonder that I'm not very keen on BRFC and their 'followers'? I wouldn't sprinkle on one of them if they were on fire.
Herein lies the problem with the Sags. They see us as ‘arrogant’ with a ‘chip on our shoulders’, ‘up our own arses’ and ‘believe we are sleeping giants’....even though all we have done is support City as opposed to them. This totally twisted and deluded view of City fans provides them with all the ‘ammo’ that they need to feel hard done by and play the victim.
They won a game on the weekend and we lost at Reading and suddenly they all crawled out from under their rocks “Singing the blues” and delighting in our defeat at Reading....and they aren’t obsessed like the “gurt Teds”. I don’t see the same delightful outpouring when we win and they lose....I don’t.....but none of them can contain themselves, NONE of them!

I’m currently on a boat with a load of Stokies, a few fellow City fans and a Gashead. The good thing is that mostly everyone hates Pulis. I am just waiting to remind the Gashead to remember to turn his clocks back 18 years tonight

This.
I bet a few shat themselves in rage as well.
Shameful for a L1 home match and further demonstrates that their support is actually pretty poor for club in a City the size of Bristol, despite what they claim.
Might be worth reminding them of this when they inevitably start bragging about taking more fans to QPR next week for their big Cup Final.
I have been reacted to bitterly and offered out since. However, considering that I was simply responding to their questions is bizarre to say the least?!!!!
Standard response from a set of Neanderthals with the emptiest bag of retorts in the entire football league!

Perhaps we could put up some banners at the bottom of Kingswood High Street for when they get back if they have lost filled with derogatory comments? Returning their compliments of course.
