Numero Uno

No, that’s the fence that the season tickets get handed through........

Bury takeover just announced as off.

Are you Jason the famous Boob Cricket all rounder by any chance?

Ask Andy Llewelyn too.

Correct, every club has them including us. Only one club portrays themselves as the Family Club supported by local media. When our “knobheads” desecrated the Memorial Gates most on here condemned it. Not one poster thought “it smells of Gas”.

It’s like North Korea up there.....

Just seen it. Anyone on here who has any lingering doubts on the sort of weapons who now follow that tinpot outfit should take a look.

That thread sums the Gas up (with the exception of a small number that possess a brain cell or two). Comments like “this smells of them South of the River”.....on the day they are supposed to be celebrating Junior Agogo’s life and singing “we’ll all be having a party....when Matty Taylor’s dead”.

The weirdest fan base in English football....absolutely no argument.

The Gas Collective stock excuse has returned....”it was they gurt Teds”.

Not just any old pasty.....an out of date fake Ginsters pasty.

I suppose all this talk about the “Ted Collective” turning up “en masse” (as per the Fewers at Cov last week) makes these jokers feel relevant and important. Danny Baker has that lot spot on.

Since Wally came with his mega millions (of pence) and since it has dawned on the Campers that he was a bit of a fraud in terms of the investment department that club has been nothing but a basket case.

IF (and that’s a bloody huge if tbf) everything goes absolutely perfectly for the Fewers ie Funding, Land Acquisition, Surveys, Design, Planning, Consultation, Procurement, Cost, Construction and Handover they would be looking at moving in at “some point” during the 22-23 season imo. This assumes that they are already ahead of the game........and this is Da Roverz we’re talking about!!!!!!

Typical Gurt Ted spouting facts again.......

These belters literally make this stuff up as they go along. Contractors are extremely risk averse atm and just cos it’s Da Gas they won’t change their stance on that.

I work in the Construction Industry in Bristol. There isn’t a great deal in the above even resembling accuracy. A lot of conjecture in there. I’d say his “Property Contact” is one of they gurt Ted’s having a bit of fun. Has the land been purchased yet? That’s not a ten minute exercise even after agreeing a price. When the land is purchased there will be 101 surveys required before you can even think about building a football stadium. Hope Wally has plenty of 50p’s down the back of his sofa for that. As others have said there is the small matter of Planning Permission to be obtained. You don’t just phone up the Council and they “oh yeah, love the scheme, when can you start”? There will need to a formal application made, a consultation period to factor in. Opposition is as guaranteed as night follows day. Amendments may need to be made to the original scheme in for planning which mean resubmission. Bristol Planning Department is notoriously slow in reacting to anything. Anyone remember Ashton Vale? After getting Planning Permission you need to work up the design in DETAIL and check costs at every stage. If costs go too far North you have to Value Engineer but within the constraints of the Planning Permission otherwise it’s a resubmission. There will no doubt be significant associated infrastructure works that have to be provided with the scheme. They will need to tender the works which can be done without planning but adds to risk. Tenders need to be examined, a preferred bidder identified, contract terms agreed. The best bit, they have to get full funding in place but will need significant funding up front as there is a lot of cost before you’ve even dug a trench. They will have planning conditions to discharge before they start such as detailed Transport Plans. There will be a mobilisation period before works commence. Construction contracts can be high risk, as much mitigation of that as you can make doesn’t guarantee there won’t be delays or unknown issues not picked up in surveys. A bloody bird could nest at just the wrong time (gives me an idea?). There is lots more in addition to the above. The point being this isn’t the five minute exercise they think it is......even if his Property Contact convinced him it was!!

Thought it was the Gas “Collective”?

It’s laughable that the guy who gave blood and sweat for that lot is accepted by us as a good local radio reporter whereas they have gone all sensitive that he chooses to remain neutral?

They might not say that they are massive (except when talking about away support when they do literally say that, we’d take more than the Teds in their position and that “many Championship teams would be envious” etc.) but they do refer to teams like Cheltenham, FGR and Yeovil as “village” teams - the implications being? A 20K stadium announced by the club was literally spoken of as a 25K stadium within 24 hours of being mooted. All to do with the inferiority complex they undeniably have. Their fan base is full of hot air and bullshit, that is literally “what they do”, no piss taking this time.

6,802 less Tranmere.........it’s what they do. Many Championship clubs would be envious of that.

I’m sure any 18 year old would play when they could at that level and to hell with the double hip replacement when they’re 45......because that’s how many 18 year olds think. Medical Staff on the other hand have to take into account the demands of the game (Professional Football and Somerset County League Div 3 aren’t quite the same thing) on a young growing persons body. If you don’t understand how professional football might impact a young kids body (cos you played 5-a-side 8 times a week when you were 18) try buying a ticket as close to the pitch as you can and see what you think.

The Sag is right tbf. We’ve loaned him to Oxford to score a hat trick on Saturday then we’ll recall him immediately....to be repeated 42 more times.

Not even the keeper that was bent........they literally are the worlds thickest fan base.

It’s written into the BCFC Employee Handbook as the only thing you need to say to any Gashead when being given stick by them. Tbh the sad Gapper was lucky that Tinnion didn’t **** him.......what sort of bellend do you have to be to open your gob like that in a restaurant when it is pretty likely that someone is spending time with their family?
