    I think you misunderstood. 

    That was probably just Wally getting a free bag of prawn crackers with his delivery order of over £10. 

    I'm sorry, but I can't just let this answer go unchallenged.

    It is obviously absolute rubbish.

    Wally would never fork out £10 on an order ;)

    Someone should do a mockumentary on them. Would be amazing. That kid who does the YouTube videos and his dad could take the lead roles.

    I think you are confused.

    That kid has been directing the mockumentary for the last few years.

    You didn't think Bristol Rovers were a real football team did you? :facepalm:

    Still, I don't feel too confident today, I feel this could be the end of our unbeaten run (after all it has to end sometime) however, we may manage to scrape a draw, a win and I will be over the moon

    This.  The one thing that helps the confidence a little is that our defence has been more solid recently than last year. Just hope they haven't figured out running at Flint rather than lumping high balls in near him!

    Nov 10th, 2007..

    There were just over 22,000 at Portman Road for that match and a very decent City away following. They will have nothing like that attendance today. We were 1 down on 5 minutes thanks to a Jon Walters goal which hit the back of the net as soon as i got to my seat slightly late for kick off. 2-0 down on 15 with a David Wright goal and the cacophony of noise was so demoralising. But City dug in for the rest of the half thankfully only to utterly capitulate early in the second just when we all thought right, now the fight back. 3-0 on 48 minutes with a Tommy Miller penalty.. Bradley Orr was it who brought down Walters? He was sent off for that. Down to 10 and 3 down.. Some City fans had seen enough and walked out in the 48th minute! I had never seen that before. Jon Walters again on 55 and the trickle started to become a real steady flow of leavers. I had a long drive back to London to contemplate, let alone the brave souls going to Bristol, but I paid my money and I stayed hoping for one goal. It never came. 5-0 on 65 minutes by Pablo Counago and Walters got his hattrick after 72 minutes to make it a really humiliating 6-0 thrashing. City were totally outclassed.

    God, I remember that. Wasn't there, but was on a stag-do pub crawl, along with an old friend who was an Ipswich season ticket holder. My pre-match banter soon went quiet. :(

    While the UK Gov't is criticized by its apparent lack of response yet before Irma arrived they had Marines positioned, they are already cleaning up and have Anguilla airport open, the hospital electricity back and shelters rebuilt and they are doing the same on the BVI.

    and C4 news last night were obviously gutted. Set up their piece about how badly the UK govt had dealt with it, had a representative from Angilla lined up to rip into them, who instead just praised the speed of the response, no matter how hard they tried to lead her into a moan.

    So, today I am not going to moan about the speed of LJ's response to us going behind (unless we go behind and he doesn't make changes quickly enough, obviously :whistle2:).

    Like to think we could surprise today, but expect to lose 2-1. Might have to bet on Reading, that should see us get at lest a draw!

    Maybe they are, Wael of fortune has written a piece that sounds like the "what I did in my school holidays" essays we used to write on our first day back in Juniors. :)

    It does sound like a kid who is struggling to describe what they did in any detail, I used to hate writing those essays!

    But he's not just the owner, he is a superfan too, watched them on telly and everything:

    Last Saturday I watched our game against Bradford City, as it was live on TV across the region.
