  1. One of the pictures in the article in the article was ... ... which shows rugby posts! Always first with the news!
  2. Come on, own up. Which one of you guys wrote that Post article? Was it you, @bert tann?
  3. As he revealed in his interview with the Post last month, Bristol Rovers' new commercial director Tom Gorringe made his first change at the club by putting a suggestion box in the club shop. It would appear as though Rovers have been inundated with suggestions and requests, and the club has wasted no time in getting to grips with many of them. There will even be a number of changes implemented in time for this weekend's clash with Blackpool. "We have had many positive suggestions, some of which we have already implemented, some of which are under discussion, and some which we would like to put in place but aren't practical at the moment," Gorringe told Rovers' web sitee The club have broken down the suggestions into categories - stadium general, parking, shop, food and drink, and entertainment.MORE It appears as though many more changes will be made over the coming months, but the club has already given a clear indication of what they are looking to change in the short term. Take a look below at the club's current plans. Stadium general The PA system has been updated and the club hopes for a noticeable difference in the sound quality in the south and south west stands Bike racks are in place The lack of defibrillator's in the stadium was a major concern and two new ones have been orderedMORE Accessible toilet for the north stand has been ordered The club are currently discussing the following suggestions More turnstiles to be opened on matchdays A lift for disabled fans in the East Stand A card system instead of season tickets books Incentives for supporters to cycle to matches The possibility of providing wet weather clothing to supporters not undercover when it rains The club are currently unable to implement the following ideas A roof for the east stand Improved clubhouse facilities Opening the ground any earlier on matchdays. Food and drink Balti pies and vegetable pasties will be back from Saturday Drinks will be pre-poured The club is working hard to ensure they don't run out of food Also under discussion are: gluten-free options, happy hour after each match and improving the pies There will be a pie tasting session on October 3 Parking The club is investigating the possibility of park and ride schemes The club is unable to increase the disabled parking spaces at present Shop A complaints book for returned goods will be implemented It's not possible in the short term to have a larger club shop Entertainment Captain Gas has been provided with a new kit The club is looking at providing more options for entertaining younger supporters on match days and making more of PA announcements such as when young players make their debut
  4. I've certainly found myself up some wrong 'uns.
  5. In fact people visiting Bristol think it's a shithole which makes them want to go home. Apparently.

Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Member Give Gift Back to Top Post by gashead1981 on 3 hours ago There have been some complaints via the admin system that I wrote an ageist post (fair enough, I can see why and point taken). However, this is a copy and paste from page 1 of the link above which 2 posters individually wrote, which prompted me to write the thread I have. It was not my intention to target a particular age group. "The way I see things, is that I am actualy too old for all this PC nonsense to affect me. You cannot teach an old dog new tricks, so my defense is that I am the way I am, because that's the way I grew up." "Exactly how I see it I'm 60 in 2 weeks and I ain't changing the way I think and speak for anyone (although I have to keep my opinions to myself on here cud every time in the past I have written what I think it has been removed and I do not want to get banned from the forum)" It was written as a warning that era of upbringing has no bearing on whether it is acceptable to use of any form of slang relating to race or ethnicity. I hope it clears the matter up and if anyone would like to discuss anything further then I would welcome a PM. Thanks Steve
  7. I accept that there is a different formula for sharing gate receipts in Cup matches but for League matches, these days, the home team keeps all of the attendance revenue. Having good away attendances for League matches thus adds not a jot to their team's finances. If the 15'ers don't do something to address their piss poor home attendances, to at least reach break-even, then those ever so "loyal and true" supporters won't have a team to watch away from home before too much longer ... well, until a phoenix rises from the ashes in a park somewhere.
  8. Thanks for clearing that up, Aiz. Carry on boys and girls.
  9. 12,740 (1957). Decent turn out to be fair. Cheap tickets obviously do work.
  10. We are both talking about your Amazon device, right? Nothing (much) perverted about me.
  11. Sounds like it wasn't just Matty Taylor who had a release clause.
  12. 8,732 (810 away). No cycle racing, obviously.
  13. I've got older socks. He looks wet behind the ears. Bloody leaky tents.
  14. Tinpot would be an improvement on canvas.
  15. 7908 (123 Oldham supporters and 'teds). Sorry, got to dash. Someone's coming for me.
  16. But the Vuelta a Espana doesn't finish until tomorrow. Surely you know by now that cycle races have a major effect upon their gates. Please keep up.
