Sweeneys Penalties

To be fair to FGR, they are so far in front they are virtually out of sight in League 2

may/may not have been the same time, but I was on a coach to Leyton Orient late 80's/early 90's and that coach got lost and eventually turned up at Half Time. Beryl's face was a picture when she saw what had happened. To be fair to the O's, their programme sellers negotiated with the Police on our behalf and then we went in for half a game for half price

not with those cars in the foreground surely. Early 70's would be my guess

The Referee was an absolute clown. One of the worst Ive ever seen at AG (and Ive seen a few)

He's still having a quality game. he's done nothing wrong. Why cant we get penalties like that?

why cant we get penalties like that?

Timm Klose is absolutely our best player. First time Ive seen him. I'm impressed

Many of my older programmes have a copy of "Football League Review" stuffed between the pages

thats the one

We'll never host a World Cup in my lifetime at least, but yes the "Cocaine Final" completely rules us out of hosting anything in the foreseeable

who's the defence coach? I can see a role for him in BS3

Alex Neil would be high on the agenda I'd have thought - no compo either

beating Portsmouth to win promotion to Division 1. beating Arsenal on the first game of the new season in Division 1

one of the most unfunny blokes I can recall in my lifetime.

Just saw this.....another one doomed for the Lags XI.

stop talking sense for Gods sake Dave

its not the forwards that worry me

issues at a few grounds yesterday....Southampton and Everton among 'em. Even the Wolves ground caught fire overnight (electrical problem apparently)

Probs cos I've had a gutful over the years. One of my staff when I worked I worked in Bedminster honestly believed my folks had servants (just because they lived in Bath). I remember getting a new tyre in Bishopsworth..."don't meet many from your place down 'ere". On the other hand I was always well treated in Syms Avenue. It was what it was

Don't understand why Cardiff didn't peg it off to meet The Gas at Temple Meads

When I was a kid my Dad introduced me to Ashton Gate. He had family in Bedminster (his own father was in Bedminster) and Pill. I've been over to Bath City many times but this "gloryhunter" has watched City home and away in all 4 divisions. If I was a a glory hunter I'd have done what so many others in Bath have done...follow Arsenal, Chelsea, Man United, Liverpool etc but I stayed local (ish). I've lived in Sheffield (still followed City) though wasn't averse to turning up at Bramall Lane or occasionally Huddersfield or Rotherham and I've also lived in Swindon (but enjoyed popping into Tesco when Swindon were playing at home with a City top on). I now live in Box but still go to Ashton Gate. There ya go. A minor life story explained (oh and my Secondary school was St Brendan's). Any further questions please feel free to message me personally as I'm pretty sure that my ramble is of little interest to anyone reading this thread

Ha. Not this season hey. Looking forward? to a blitzing today against Leinster. Born and bred in Bath - brought up in the same neck of Bath as the famous (among City fans) and late RM.

met him a few years ago in Waterstones up at Cribbs. I was looking for my (late) Fathers birthday present (an ex ref....and there was me in a Bath Rugby top). He seemed a seriously nice bloke, autographed and annotated a personal message in a book (his autobiography) for my Dad and we had a pretty decent chat. He knew I was a "ted" (though couldnt quite square that with the Bath Rugby top), and we parted company. Yes he's gas, yes he's said some silly things when he was younger, but he strikes me when you speak to him 1-1 as an OK bloke.
