  1. Where is that? I'm no Countdown champion, but to the right of the flag are the letters GBY - this leads me to think there might be a rugby club there. So it can't be the Mem as they have had years to remove any reference to the spiritual owners of that particular stadium.
  2. Yeah. Gurt Teds with the franchise bowl... You have to wonder if they are trying to convince themselves that life isn't as bad as it clearly is.
  3. I have a feeling this this is the first 'new low for them since Saturday. So maybe things are improving for them..
  4. They will go double continental and sign Rizal and Vape.
  5. It can't be. Surely not. They have provided so much historical laughter over the last quarter of a century I struggle to think of one particular year we haven't laughed.
  6. Well, their nomadic playing arrangements over the years does mean they have always travelled. Granted, a lot of that was to Bath, when they were a 'home'.
  7. So not content with stealing grounds, they are also nicking gags! Swines.
  8. Maybe they got confused, and Dyson is going to be rebranding them... Rag-Bag-Less Rovers.
  9. Suggest you read the post till the end.
  10. Would have been, but Colin Daniels said he wouldn't be seen dead wearing it. So it was changed.
  11. I don't know. As per the previous points of speculation, I have no knowledge of what anyone is doing. Just purely posting what I have heard - again, what I have heard from people who I don't know if they have any inside info or not.
  12. And so to this evening's take over rumour. As with my previous two, this is based on a pub conversation, with no 'ITK' status applied. I am merely reporting what other people have told me. Tonight. Keynsham. A joint venture with Bath, involving money from Dyson and whoever Wally can get to chip in. Evidently, Bath want a bigger stadium and the Fewers need one. So this evening it was suggested that they Web up together again. Might be a load of old pony, might not be. Who knows!
  13. They were going to build a supermarket on it, so I don't this that's the case.
  14. Exactly. Plymouth would be a much better opportunity for someone wanted to invest and develop. Massive catchment area, especially with Cornwall being under represented in the professional game.
  15. Hadn't heard the previous board were still owned coins, so that would stack up. The whole Jordanian ownership thing increasingly looks like (as has been called out on here for a long time), a property deal gone very bad.
  16. No, that's fine! And I would rather be clear that what I have heard is little more than speculation from concerned Fewers, rather than something anyone I know who is close to any negotiations (even if they are fictitious). The one suggesting moderate playing investment was very much labouring the thought that if funds are allocated to training and stadium facilities, they would want/expect a team that as championship ready for the new facilities. Haven't heard the 'Mem for housing' thing mentioned (yet). But who knows where the people giving me their knowledge are getting their info from.
  17. None whatsoever from me (in terms of being in the know, these were pub conversations). Two suggestions from different people were made. 1/ A group of American based people are interested, but Wally wants to keep a fairly significant percentage. 2/ A combined takeover, of both local and American money could be involved, with the intention of constructing new facilities and investing 'moderate' amounts to build for the future, but they would be looking for the entire Dwayne Sport holding. The people telling me this are not (as far I as know), close to the club aside from being supporters, could be they know stuff, could be wishful thinking. Guess it's a case of wait and see.
  18. Sadly, The Cat and Wheel doesn't have a link to conversations. Which is a real shame.
  19. Either that, or he just hates the Gas.
  20. Surely if that were true, the correct message to relay would be.... CHAMPIONSHIP READY sprinkler malfunction.
  21. Murmurings at the Mem that Wally is getting the hump with some supporters and issuing letters to those with the audacity to speculate openly about investment and takeovers.
  22. The queue for those locked out gets longer and longer!
  23. Can't see them moving the Horse Of The Year show from Olympia though. There won't be enough vets in the South West to cope.
