Burton on top.
How about a goal in about 20 minutes, injury time winner again, would be sweet!

Half of those were pissed up Swedes weren't they? Maybe disappointed by the lack of meatballs?

Gas chat is a fun read right now!
I liked the question just before the goal of when was the last time we had 3 0-0 draws in a row

As I detailed in my earlier thread and on here the delay is due to consultation with Bristol city planning dept, Tom G informed me some while back that delay in installation is being caused by planning which the club are currently working through it obviously takes time to get agreement with planning, we are working with Bristol city council who very rarely do us any favours.Seems some of the gas considered the issue of planning permission at the start of August - no-one at the club reads their forum then!
But we don't need planning permission for temporary stands, we need a Safety Certificate from BCC but that can't be obtained until the stands are in place and can be fully tested for safety/access etc.
BCC have given us pp for every stadium planning application so they rarely let us down in any event.

I didn't think the club needed full planning permission but they obviously require some form of agreement with planning, or they would not be in talks with planning dept, this info came from Tom G not me.
Yes and I suppose we have got permission for planning permission from city council in the past.Post by Topper Gas on Aug 3, 2018 at 6:00pm
Because what you are suggesting doesn't make sense to me as if we're only at the planning stage it could be weeks, even months, before the stands are eventually ordered/built/delivered/constructed/approved for use.I didn't think the club needed full planning permission but they obviously require some form of agreement with planning, or they would not be in talks with planning dept, this info came from Tom G not me.
Yes and I suppose we have got permission for planning permission from city council in the past.
Plus how does this effect the SW Stand as we must already have some form of BCC agreement for that particular stand to be in place.
Although the way things are going with the strikers I doubt we need more seating anyway as we'll struggle to fill what we've got.

If we need planning permission we may be in trouble. Looking on the councils website I can't see any planning applications searching 'Bristol rovers', 'memorial' or the stadiums postcode since 2014.
I'm sure formal PP can't be needed for the new stand. Maybe being in kit form it is considered a temporary structure that doesn't need full PP? -

That’s not possible - they ‘take huge numbers away, it’s just what they do’ - you need to demand a recount, the fans of ‘da famous quartez’ take massive away crowds,
And they are such a big draw, home fans all want to come to watch them.

Ed Ware who was a director at Rovers from 2007-2016.
Can't really see him being the big saviour now, he could have put his cash in with Higgs.

Well we hit the woodwork two or three times so you can’t get much closer. Weimann had a decent chance first half and we got in behind loads in the second half. Sadly we seem afraid to shoot at times.
That is classed as a miss, as Brendan Rogers found out at Liverpool.
yes, it is a miss, and not a shot on target. But to say a shot which hit the woodwork automatically isn't a good or clear chance isn't the same thing.
Hitting the post from a really narrow angle may not be a great chance, hitting it from right in front of the goal, it probably was a good chance.
Saying that, our problem seems to be that too many of our shots and shots on target are long range. You are more likely to score from a 'good chance' 6 yards out than a good chance 20 yards out.

Flint saw it. He left.
Reid saw it. He left.
Bryan saw it. He left.
The 3 of them, with far more ITK insight than any of us have on here realised that their dreams would be better met elsewhere.
And they left. Ok so we don’t know what those dreams might have been but I’m guessing one of them might well be Premier League football.
Yep, it takes lots of ITK insight to know you have better chance of premier league football by joining a premier league team.
As for Flint, Boro are certainly considered more likely than us to go up this year too, and is probably being paid a LOT more too.

Such a "lovely stadium" that most Hoops fans cannot wait for the club to finalise new ground plans.
Are they hoping to relocate?
This cup tie could be huge for the gas, if they don't leave at the end of the match they could squat in a new stadium. They aren't bothered about home grounds being outside Bristol, do they?

I see Wael's avoiding the fans now (from twitter) due to a last minute meeting on a Sunday:
A big apology to everyone expecting to see me at the
@martinbelstenm1 game tomorrow! Sadly I am no longer to make it due to a meeting that has come up last minute, I hope everyone has a great day and you raise lots of money for St Peters Hospice! -
Sounds to me that Henbury **** wants his details removing on here. Despite the fact that those same details were found by our members on their forum, mostly posted by him?

Something i'm investigating with the help of a media savvy law firm as we speak
Does this make moderating this forum harder for the moderators? Should they be looking at more posts and should they charge to use the site if that is the case. Your input would be most useful, I take it Before the 25th May anything is non GDPR, it is only anything after this date?
I know there is a "process" that has to be followed closely if you want to pursue a public forum/media site to get some action taken, which is what i'm doing at the moment.
If you send an informal polite request to have information removed, most will do it, but if not a formal legal approach in the form of a letter from a solicitor will solve the problem, but you have to give them time to respond. -

Clearly the club are laying the blame at the contractors door. Anyone saying it's the club's fault is either talking BS or alleging that the club are downright liars and are making this excuse up.
yeah, cos the club couldn't possible be lying/making up excuses. They've never done that before.
They really are special over there!

May look like a decent result with hindsight - against big spending Forest. Time will tell.

State of this comment
Don't take the comment too seriously. I actually like LJ.
The comments more about our incredible ability to concede very early in the second half. Normally half-times seen as a chance to regroup and tactics to be given to the players. For whatever reason, it often seems to back fire for us.

The number of times he played a weak back-pass for us.
You'd think he'd learn!

If the season could continue like this - 5 minutes in we're winning and the gas are losing.
