If that belongs to Rovers, with any luck there's a pile of s**t heading towards it, either in relation to their finances or as they go down again this season

Comment from gaschat. Apparently a football club with no training facilities of their own and a ground that the club has themselves said is not fit for purpose, with no funds to improve it or the team, with crowds of around 1/3 of the other team in the same city is a 'very good' football club. Dream on saggys!

Another bizarre statement. Something you don't know about, and we can't say anything about, is not happening. Wow, well done Wally!

Meanwhile on gaschat: 2 hours ago Topper Gas said: 11 hours ago pirate said: Connor Ripley signed on loan with Accrington until the end of the season but has a break clause. He could be another decent option if we lose Bonham. What's he going to gain as a player by jumping ship from a mid table Div 1 side to joining a relegation battle with us? We are a bigger club, playing in front of bigger crowds and he might fancy the challenge. We also might offer to pay a few extra £. For some reason they still seem to think they are a massive club, which pays such good wages they are a better prospect than a team looking safe mid-table, whilst they are looking at relegation, with no sign of any cash to help save them. I suppose at least some of them are starting to see reality.

28,971 watching. Sunderland must be so grateful for the huge numbers the gas brought, that'll sort their finances out for the season.

nice to see Plymouth score!

Wimbledon is 10 v 10, come on just get 1! (Hopefully Sunderland will kick on now and improve their goal difference)

Seems Fowler could be just right for them. Doesn't really need to be paid, but is desperate to be given a chance as a manager in England, seems to apply for every job going. Step in the Gas, take a punt on someone no-one else will consider, whose overseas managerial experience was apparently rubbish, but may not need more than the minimum wage. As for Fowler, unless he puts his hand in his own pocket, he'll have a squad that will continue to struggle, which won't do his future managerial aspirations any good. However, both side could be so desperate...

Careful, I'm sure the gas accused us of being on the Bees forum before, given that Barnet also know and point out how delusional the gas are, how they talk up their support etc etc.

the other cup games tonight had injury time goals, including a 96th minute penalty for Gillingham. Sort of thing I expected from the gas, but what a shame, it wasn't to be. haahaa

They obviously think we're in league 2 - who's going to tell them!?

Tried to, ref had to give up in the end. Could have played for another hour otherwise

I thought banning orders were down to the police to apply for, so nothing to do with how different clubs deal with them. Besides, we all know Bristol Sport would not hesitate to ban anyone being a little boisterous if they could.

I was just looking at the 'as it stands' table working out where the gas would be if they conceded a second, when the table suddenly updated to show me. Come on Scunny!

I was also thinking that if we ever made it to the Prem, we should be able to beat Man City, Utd, Liverpool etc, but would obviously have to put up with Cardiff beating us.

Sorry if I missed it on another thread, but I heard a week or so ago that our record against teams in the top half of the table was the second best in the league. Against teams in the lower half of the table we were second worst. We need to figure out how to beat these 'lesser' teams. An natural goal scorer would be a start.

We call him the Tramp, do you know what some of them call him? http://gaschat.co.uk/thread/13251/barnet-match-thread?page=8 He’s made a silly error today by the looks of it but let’s be honest that man bleeds blue blood and has always given everything for our team. He’s always reminded me of a lower league Edgar davids , at least he said 'lower league', but still how you compare the two is beyond me!

Imagine if a group of football fans chose to take legal action to challenge the way police treat fans (particularly away fans). Something that could benefit fans of all clubs, something all fans could get behind and help support. Unless you are a deluded sag, in which case you mock the efforts being made (I'm not trawling that awful site to try to find it, but that is what they did)

Gaschat moaning that Barnet fans sound like us. Maybe they need to figure out that everyone laughs at them and the huge travelling numbers: http://www.onlybarnet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=13829

The trouble will be them Teds in the home end then!

So, the Gas will be going out to Barnet this year

Looks like one of them has word for it. He's almost right, but it is not 'ammunition' they keep giving us, it's a 'gift': gassygas Newbie Posts: 21 Member is Online Posting Level Next Level in 4 posts 10 minutes ago Quote Edit Post by gassygas on 10 minutes ago 2 hours ago stokegiffordgas said: Our performance has been covered elsewhere but how the hell do we do consistently get such poor officials at the mem? I remember reading sone time ago (probably on here) that referees going up the leagues or being fast tracked are given our home games so that assessors can see how they react to (relatively) large crowds. If that's the case now then I feel it is working against us as they try to show they are not biased - that's the only way I can explain the idiot 'in charge' yesterday. Even the assistants didn't have a hat so how could they see when facing the sun. The fact that we had no officials at the world cup to and says a lot too. Sorry, but I hate threads like this. All fans think the officials are against them, and only ever see the decisions that go against them while ignoring the decisions in their favour. We simply need to play better, or more to the point actually score a goal. If the up and coming refs are sent to teams with big support, we're not getting the fastest track one are we? Yesterdays attendances: Bradford 15,875 Charlton 12,416 Luton 8,953 Plymouth 8,190 Portsmouth 18,046 Shrewsbury 9,007 GAS 8,506 Please, stop giving ammunition to you-know who.

Wouldn't look as good at the mem - don't have that many fans to hold the arrows.

So Henbury Gas thinks we are going to get promoted. Given their obsession, most of them probably think that's worse than themselves getting relegated.

Wish granted! Should have put some money on it. Maybe next week, when they are at home to Oxford
