  1. Love that turn of phrase. Consider your post ENDORSED!
  2. Add to the fact that if he loses the first 2 games, he wouldn't be able to get 6 points from 9, thus rendering the 3rd game inconsequential. #GassyMaths
  3. Post this happening, Irene is going to be replaced as their run out music with this. Posting it, partly to take the piss, but also because that Doris who wasn't Baker was well tidy.
  4. Makes me feel better. I was only 6 correct numbers away from winning the lottery... or at least, I would be if I played it.
  5. But you are missing one crucial thing. And that is, #GasLogic
  6. I'm sure they are prowed all the same.
  7. Becomes even more difficult when you see how the rugby is growing year on year and newer spectator sports like the basketball selling out every week. I'm sure Rovers will survive, but what level they find themselves at is impossible to say. If they go down this season then they are in some real trouble.
  8. Is it your new super thin big screen in the stadium that is so thin it's actually invisible?
  9. Or waiting for them outside. That was another claim.
  10. Quiet voices can be heard in empty rooms.
  11. Along with a bit of Oasis, Shed Seven, Echobelly, Sleeper and Cast.
  12. There is also the fact they seem to relish that Matt Taylor (cost, 300k - less than a Tilson) hasn't been as prolific in the Championship. Despite this, he has scored more goals from a limited number of starts that the replacement they signed for more money. Unlucky da shit.
  13. Hasn't been mentioned in a while, but... who can forget one of the deluded claiming - on relegation from League One - that they would be the... Barcelona of League Two.
  14. Also, wasn't there outcry when it was revealed that their development squad players have to buy their own kit?
  15. Only league club to fail to qualify for the league cup as well I think.
  16. This is a very strong post and deserves lots of praise.
  17. Point of order... Was the bus tour within the last 5 years? Granted, it feels like yesterday - it's impossible to think of it with a straight face - but have they not been back in the league for longer?
  18. If someone tried to pitch that to the makers of much missed Football Soap 'Dream Team' it would be dismissed as too unbelievable. And this is a show that had an entire series of Karl Fletcher the ghost!
  19. Just put both of the Rovers threads in to print and you'd have a best seller on your hands!
  20. Indeed. You need to be a special kind of special to manage that.
  21. Last 5 years.... I'll go with 'unlucky da shit' (Countless others, getting fans to pick seats in Cheltenham for the rebuild of a stadium development that was never going to happen, and the mystical crystals In the goals are up there, but they were both more than 5 years back).
  22. The football club is worth no more than a quid. You wouldn't buy limited goodwill and a company that loses a fortune every year, knowing you would need to throw a fortune at it to hopefully progress for any more. The real coins sit in the assets that will soon owe the current owners more than they are worth, if Wally and Co walk away with their money back they will have done well. The only chance they have of turning a profit would be if they were selling to a fan who is desperate to own them. Taking the 12mil debt, the investment the squad seems to need and the improvements needs to keep them at the Mem for a few more years whilst they try and find a new home, can't imagine there would be much change from 15 or 18 million as a year one payment. And of course, who knows what will happen to the economy post Brexit...
  23. I thought the 12mil charge was against the stadium which is the stadium company rather than the club?
