With all respect gashead2017, my son takes his driving test on Monday and he knows you're shit but you haven't EVER been on his horizon as you're not good enough to keep up with us. He pertains to understand the rivalry but how can he? You're gone mate.

Bath rovers and we would be the OTIB. I like that!

Can anyone say any reason why we would say 'yes' to them using our beautiful stadium? I can't think of one reason why we would advocate it. While they're down, put the boot in is my opinion. F##K them!

Just read a thread on their forum about opening up an old railway station to ease congestion on match days. Guess what? They want the council to pay for it! All these grand ideas are fine but they plain haven't got any money by the look of it so naff all will get done.

I agree. Look how we had to jump through hoops really parking etc. They're in a far worse position than we were IMHO. Just because they can build to 17/18k doesn't mean they would be allowed to. As to using the Gate, I would hope the 2nd word in reply to any request is 'off'!

What thread is that from? I try not to spend too much time on their forum as I feel dirty afterwards.

I did notice that he said 'nice modern stadium' rather than the previous 'world class'. I don't think they will get it but it sounds more like a Shrewsbury flat pack job than something like the mighty Gate. That interview would have me very concerned if I were a sag, luckily I'm not so can enjoy the debacle!

To be fair to Mike Jay, he's a decent bloke, shit taste in football clubs mind. He ran Deerswood juniors for years when my lad and a friends lad were playing. One of lifes gentlemen TBH although a diehard gashead. He has written books about their history, warts and all.

A couple of beauties for your amusement, supplied by Cheesleysmate...

Here you go Archie..

Thanks for the clarification chaps. As mentioned, if a contractor had been appointed, someone would have said / heard something. With the deadline approaching, either someone is under a confidentiality clause or this ain't starting before August which has to bring the January deadline into serious doubt. Happy days!

What point to they have to get to by the deadline? I'm not in the construction / planning game so was wondering. Will ground clearance suffice or do they actually have to be above ground or something? Another question, I don't get the August 'deadline' when their PP runs out in January? Can anyone explain in layman's terms?

I've no idea RA75.

Edited for accuracy.

They also had more arrests than we did last season with half of our crowds.

The figures are utter bollocks anyway as EFL clubs have to make a certain % available for POTD so it's probably less than 5K, maybe nearer 4.

They need to know their place, even at U6! A lifetime of abuse awaits the poor little lambs unless they change allegiance. I am joking by the way. Pesky 'teds!

Maria had just gotten married, and being a traditional Italian she was still a virgin. On her wedding night, staying at her mother's house, she was very nervous. Her mother reassured her; 'Don't worry, Maria, Tony's a good man. Go upstairs and he'll take care of you. Meanwhile, I'll be making pasta.' So, up she went. When she got upstairs, Tony took off his shirt and exposed his hairy chest. Maria ran downstairs to her mother and says, 'Mama, Mama, Tony's got a big hairy chest.' 'Don't worry, Maria,' says the mother, 'all good men have hairy chests.. Go upstairs. He'll take good care of you.' So, up she went again.. When she got up in the bedroom, Tony took off his pants exposing his hairy legs. Again, Maria ran downstairs to her mother. 'Mama, Mama, Tony took off his pants and he's got hairy legs!' 'Don't worry! All good men have hairy legs. Tony's a good man Go upstairs and he'll take good care of you.' So, up she went again. When she got there, Tony took off his socks and on his left foot he was missing three toes. When Maria saw this, she ran downstairs. 'Mama, Mama, Tony only has a foot and a half!' Her Mama said, 'Stay here and stir the pasta.'!

Fair comment Miah and you've definitely improved beyond all recognition, much to our disdain! The problem for you now, is how to get to the next level which means serious investment? I'm not sure you're going to get it WTGR.

Depends who you comparing yourselves with Miah! Have you got enough players for a squad yet?

Just as well you're shite then!

Getting there thanks pal.

Cheeky fooker JP! Barrs Court if you must know.

I woke up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night and noticed a Bristol Rovers fan sneaking through my next door neighbours garden. Suddenly my neighbour came from nowhere and smacked him over the head with a shovel, killing him instantly. He then began to dig a grave with the shovel. Astonished I got back into bed and my wife said, "You're shaking, what is it?" "You'll never believe what I've just seen," I said. "That bastard next door still has my bloody shovel." A City fan, a Rovers fan and a Swindon fan were all in Saudi Arabia,sharing a smuggled crate of booze. All of a sudden Saudi police rushed in and arrested them. The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offence in Saudi Arabia, so for the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze, they were sentenced to death! However, after many months and with the help of very good lawyers, they were able to successfully appeal their sentence down to life imprisonment. By a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi National Holiday the day their trial finished, and the extremely benevolent Sheikh decided they could be released after receiving just 20 lashes each of the whip. As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh suddenly said: "It is my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping." The Rovers fan was first in line (he had consumed the least), so he thought about it for a while and then said: "Please tie a pillow to my back." This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through it. The Rovers fan had to be carried away bleeding and crying when the punishment was done. The Swindon fan was next up (he almost finished a half-keg), and after watching the scene, said: "Choice! Please fix two pillows on my back." But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again. The City fan was the last one up (he had finished off the keg), but before he could say anything, the Sheikh turned to him and said: "You have some of the best and most loyal football fans in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!" "Cheers mate, your Most Royal and Merciful highness", the City fan replied. "In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes." "Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are also very brave." The Sheik said with an admiring look on his face. "If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish? What is it to be?" the Sheik asked. "Tie the Rovers fan to my back!
