The more I think about this the better the news is. If all goes to plan, the horse punchers will be out of Bristol, they will have sold out to a foreign investor that doesn't care at all about them or the area and we will all get to laugh when it goes belly up in (at most) a couple of years.

That's good news, it gets them out of Bristol and hopefully for good this time,

Exactly, they will not risk their personal wealth, they will find everything with borrowing. Which is a massive massive gamble and will likely just plunge them into chaos in a few years. Our owner can afford those losses, how will the 15ers survive if they end up in £40million+ debt and are no higher than League One or bottom end of the Championship?

I realise the idea of a Middle Eastern buyout sounds exciting, clubs like Man City have been transformed for instance. But, if I was a 15er I would be very cautious about this. Remember Notts County signing Sol Campbell and getting Sven as manager? If these potential new owners are worth £70million then that's nothing when it comes to football ownership, there are plenty of people that have won more than that on the Euromillions! I can't see somebody worth £70million wanting to waste millions on a League Two club, there must be something else they are looking for. You simply don't make money out of football unless you are top end Premier League (and even then you probably don't!). Look at how much Lansdown has lost over the last few years, nothing to him but unacceptable to a family with wealth of only £70million.

Normally I would wish a club well, but the 15ers are different. They have spent 34 years now laughing at a football clubs financial misfortune, I would laugh my ass off if they slipped into admin and got a taste of their own medicine.

The song at the end.

At least one local Rovers team managed to beat Chesham.

Happy days!

You realise that by posting in the thread you drag it back up to the top of page one? If you don't like seeing it then it is probably best not to bump it. To answer your first question though, I would never ever be happy to see this thread on page 3. On page 3 I want to see actual tits, not read posts about a tinpot club full of tits.

Don't forget there were 15,000 loyal 15'ers locked outside.

It was never in doubt.

Agreed. Although they might be just a distant memory if they lose their appeal.

http://gaschat.co.uk/thread/4338/tempting-fete None of them have corrected him on the fact that they have barely played any away league games over the last year. Oh and that "fete" is a fair, he must have meant "fate". So so prowed.

Wasn't Jar Jar Binks on the Jedi side? Annoying, slightly racist and hated by all? It does actually sound just like the 15er's.

Why do the 15ers get a bye for the first round of the JPT?

They have tried plans A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L and are now moving onto plan M which is 100% guaranteed to work, it;s watertight and will see them propelled up the leagues with a shiny new stadium.

It's always so disappointing when the best a troll can do is post a Gas badge. If you want to troll, try and be clever or do something a little different.

Yeah but ignoring all that he deserves a new contract as he has done a great job at singing, swearing and chanting in pubs.

They are saving up their pocket money so they can buy a new tent.

Pointless club, pointless answer.

I can see agents thinking "the newest football league club that are on the brink of administration are so big we can add on 10%".

I might have thought that it was a brilliant move by the EP to show the 15ers up, except they ran that story the other day saying that Higgs looks like grumpy cat. Joke of a paper.

The front page of the Bristol Post this morning is the gas note left in the Sainsbury's trolley. The Bristol Post is just as much of an embarrassment to this city as the 15ers.
