I hate to say it but I have a niggling feeling that they will stay up, I hope I am wrong though of course!

My pessimism will not allow me to have any hope until they are officially down.

Are they genuinely "working class" (whatever that means these days)? I was, actually a little unsurprised, to hear them interviewed and it's fair to say Williamson accentuates his midlands accent and Andrew doesn't even have one. Not the only measure of whether someone is working class, but as with Idles, I get the impression they are a bit more suburban middle-England than they make out. Stand to be corrected tho 

I think it's really hard to pigeonhole a lot of people nowadays. Back in the day it was easy. Factory workers, miners, labourers etc were working class. Clerical, bankers etc were middle class.

It's more difficult now. Is an IT person earning £22k a year classed as middle class, whereas a factory worker on £28k a year gets classed as working class?

If you work in a bank, but your parents were a cleaner and a building labourer, have you jumped up a class, or does your upbringing keep you as working class?

It's all a bit silly.

Of course he'll stay in a tented swamp, in L2, miles away from home.

BR have very famous quarters 

BR have prowed fans

BR have a chairman with a very nice watch 

BR always have Babestation on the telly 

Why wouldn't he want to stay?

Rumours of Barton to Preston - You really couldn't make it up 

OR is it Preston Prison ?

Maybe somebody told him that Preston doesn't have an extradition treaty with the UK?

"Junkeren" !! 

The perfect signing for them !

He'd have to revert to his original name if he signed for the Gas. "Daniel Are Knutsen" translates as "Danny thinks you're bollocks".

The only real surprise is that none of them have raised the prospect of signing Messi as he will be out of contract at the end of the season anyway.

He's probably still out of their league, but they could try for this Messi.

Have you seen the massive spike in violence in Bristol since he took the job?

He's a City fan.

Looking forward to this, I like the band and always enjoy the interview OSiB's.

There should come a time when some should stop obsessing over them, to keep banging on about them shows they get under your skin. They are not our rivals, they used to be but not anymore, his sort of tribal post code thing seems to prevent us moving forward.

I admit though to find it entertaining in their demise, but the other part of me thinks there a lot of other good Bristol folk who are completely down over this, and I could never laugh in their faces over that. 

Joey Barton and Bristol Rovers going down.

Cheltenham, Forest Green and Exeter to come up.

Did I hear that Dolly Parton has taken over as the Gas manager ? 

Nah, they don't have anything decent up front.

FFS

Coming from Barton, that sounds like a violent threat.

Appointing as manager a man who might well be in prison for the start of next season is a very brave decision.

Some might say a lunatic decision.

He can do his team talks from his cell via Zoom.

Although they'll have to remember to switch Babestation off the monitor.

Yate 1977 saw Siouxie and the Banshees, Slaughter and The Dogs, The Adverts  Ultravox, Generation X,   Boomtown Rats and others I cant remember.

My mum has always told a story that she was in Yate and saw Billy Idol being kicked out of a cafe. I assume that was the same day as when you saw Generation X

Makes sense that the man who stubbed a cigar out in someone's eye will manage the team whose fans punch horses.
