  1. Agree with you here but some players need a bit more and I think Low maybe one of those. Ironically Ryley Towler is out on loan and thriving but would probably be in our 1st team, certainly ahead of Low, had he still been here.
  2. You have to feel sorry for Low, he's a victim of Pearson's reluctance to let players go out on loan. Low should be out on loan playing league 2 football and gaining experience, instead he's here and getting thrown in before he's ready because of injuries, illness and the lack of an option 2. Was surprised by Bajic who looks way off. Kadji was exposed in midfield, got no help at all from King who should alongside Martin be left out to pasture now, neither are good enough anymore. Sykes' confidence is clearly shot, don't think Pearson has helped there either, Dasilva is another who seems to be have no confidence. We should've gone strong in the 1st half, won the game and then introduced the youngsters into a winning confident atmosphere. I can't see what Pearson is bringing to party, with everyone else picking up points and results we are only heading in one direction at the moment.
  3. The idiots over the bridge always forget God Save The King is their national anthem.
  4. The only sporting related tender going around at the moment is the training ground at failand
  5. To be fair my boss did exactly that but it was around 1970 and in all the time I've worked for him all he's ever done is moan about them ??
  6. I've played darts in there, straight out of the 70s
  7. Wasn't Snack Box owned by their own director? Boycie if I remember correctly?
  8. Own up. Who texted or tweeted this? Thatchers years and Darrell and dog's abuse in the one message, can only have been one of us.
  9. When I read on here that there were fans who still peddled and believed that wally and family were uber rich I didn't actually believe it. However in the pub for darts I've just been told that they are probably the richest club in the country SOUTH of MANCHESTER. The family own the national bank of Jordan and are worth over £9 Billion but they just won't spend any. He genuinely believes this. I'm so gobsmacked that I haven't been able to speak to him since. I have to admit I couldn't stop the stupid grin and giggle as he said it and now I can't look at him without wondering how they believe this shit but I suppose it's because they fall for this nonsense that they're in this position in the first place. To be fair my gas supporting team mates don't believe that.
  10. And not to be forgotten, Bar 501 is owned by City fans
  11. Interesting thread on one of their forums about whether or not they should go bankrupt and start again rising through the leagues like a phoenix and take their rightful place in the Championship as a dept free club. I know their imagination is amazing isn't it? Anyway I thought I'd share this post. We should never 'chose' to bankrupt the Club. It is unethical and screws local businesses. We should never stoop to what the sh*t did in 1982. We remain on the moral high ground in Bristol and it's always good look down on that lot south of the river for their disgusting behaviour. BRFC has been around for 135 years. The sh*t have no history. However - you raise a valid point. Dwane Sports could sell the Mememorial Stadium and effectively leave BRFC debt-free and homeless. Even I don't think this will happen. I am pretty damn sure that the Bankers who own our Club are well aware of the option. OK - Dwane Sports cut and run. A chance for fan ownership? (Vaughan has some ideas on this). At this point - pretty sure we would slide down the leagues. We would have to rent somewhere to play. Obviously this is the (unlikely) nightmare scenario. But - Does it kill the Club? Nope. We become 'like' a phoenix Club... a chance to start again with a clean sheet. Could a Club ever recover from this? Well there are plenty of examples of this happening - Wimbledon being the best. And remember they have a far smaller support base than us. As long as I have a team to support in north Bristol who play in blue & white quarters and have a proud history going back to 1883 - I can live with that. The UWE was the big one that got away. It was a chance for us to establish ourselves in a higher division. Maybe the UWE numbers never stacked up, we'll never know. FTG. Read more: http://gasheads.org/thread/7221/unthunkable#ixzz55U09oyUo So they have the moral high ground? Amazes me how they can blank out so much of their clubs behaviour.
  12. This is what the sponsors of yesterday's game were given by the club to commemorate their day.
  13. Have to say I agree with you on this, although it's funny that we took 300+ more to a London game than they had at a home game. If we were in that tournament I would boycott any game against an U23 team.
  14. With the my little pony film due out in a weeks time. There are demonstrations planned at Longwell Green cinema. Apparently the rovers supporters club shop in Kingswood have teamed up with the Flowerpot and organised a coach, sorry mini bus, opps mini. They plan to blockade the doors, sorry 1 door. They say the film portrays orses the wrong light and that they are vicious nasty animals with a hatred for a all things blue and white and should be locked up with the key thrown away. Showing these animals as clean and light and fluffy should not be allowed. The organiser of the protest, who has asked to remain nameless has said he is prowed that none of of his family and friend will be seeing the film, was heard to be muttering 'ard luck the shiiit' as he was trying to locate the Vue cinema on a map but apparently all he could find was Aspects Leisure Park.
  15. What's my breath like? Gotta date down St Phillips later and I think mine's on heat.
  16. I should've said almost beginning to feel sorry. I think he's a figure head, a puppet or tool being used by his family, I suspect he's always banged on about grandiose dreams of having his own successful club and taking it to the top so they can play his heroes at Chelsea. The rest of his more savvy family have seen an opportunity to make money, that's gone titsup and want out before they lose any. This could be a long and very messy affair for the blue few and I think there could be quite a few casualties along the way.
  17. I'm beginning to feel sorry for Wally, I think he got involved with the best intentions but from what I've heard he can front up as much as he wants he really has no say. The eldest brother holds the purse strings, he pulled the plug on UWE because the revenue strings weren't good enough and has had enough and wants out. Wally can go on the radio and TV and talk about the mem and safe standing as much as he wants, they won't be spending any more significant money on the sags.
  18. Bristol Rovers are the Donald Trump of English football #fakenews if you lie often enough people will believe the lie
