  1. So they are old fashioned, behind the times and play in an antiquated stadium. Yeah sounds right for the sags.
  2. Yes but that was us signing a player from them. They will always look at our cast offs... David Clarkson, Steve Phillips, Mark Little, Danny coles, Lee Matthews, John Akinde for example.
  3. I'm guessing they're talking when City and Swindon were in the same league and that was the local Derby because rovers were in the division below. Its just like our main rivalry now is with Cardiff. They're upset we are going to utilise a local club for potentially getting game time for our younger players? Ben Garner had a decent reputation for developing youngsters so why not. The checking the phones bit made me chuckle as I remember a video from in the Basement Bristol Rovers where a neutral fan went to the mem and said they recorded more footage of fans checking the score for us then watching the football!
  4. Full respect to the sag fans for calling him out on domestic abuse charges. No one should ever have to be assaulted whether that's domestically or not. I do feel a bit sorry for them because he does seem to be constantly dragging their name through the mud and it seems like there's a new court date every other month. He is not just a stain on their club, he's a stain on the city of Bristol and a stain on football he should never be allowed to manage every again or even play at an amateur level for the dog and duck pub.
  5. Saw a sag say the Cambridge guy "chose money over ambition" I mean I can't think of any other reason you'd choose Wrexham over the sags.
  6. If rumours are to be beloved then the sags paid a hefty wage for the likes of Agent Little, Kyle Bennett (who was rumoured to be earning about £4k a week), Luke Leahy, James Daly ad a few others. Releasing them would've freed up wages. I think they've only paid for one of the signings (minus the loans which will probably have a small fee).
  7. "Yeah but no one counts preseason" or w/e they are saying over there. Preseason is going to be massively important when you've signed all those players. It doesn't matter if you're "getting your fitness back" a decent pre season can get you a good start of the season.
  8. No they do that after they beat Havant & Waterlooville on Tuesday
  9. Even the night Barcelona of league 2 will have slip ups. This is all part of their plan to lose every pre season game so their opponents will think they are shit and underestimate them, ofc the truth is they are shit.
  10. They started the announce promotion as soon as they got relegated they said they would have an early promotion party because League 2 will be a walk over.
  11. You aren't allowed to apply facts to Gas Logic. Those attendances don't include the 100,000,000 fans that are constantly locked out of the ground every week. They would be averaging 1,000,000,000 if they had a new stadium which shows they are the bigger club.
  12. I definitely think Wycombe will be taking legal advice the fact of the matter is Derby have cheated and have benefited from it denying Wycombe a place in the league this year. The fact Derby don't have to submit amended accounts until the 18th August in which 2 league games would already be played you know for a fact they'll leave it to the last second. The EFL need to suspend the first 2 league games for both Derby and Wycombe or they shouldn't be given so long to resubmit the accounts.
  13. They were and with Plymouth being promoted and Swindon finishing above them. The fewers are officially the worst league team in the South West.
  14. According to them by the time they play FGR away they'll have already won the league and be singing that they are coming for us.
  15. Even as a neutral you would question just how many more chances is he going to get. Hes been given chance after chance after chance and he's still a thug. It's not a first offence and he has had previous jail time, in my eyes there is a real chance that if found guilty he's going to be jailed and it won't be a suspended sentence.
  16. The offence is ABH "According to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), the offence of ABH is committed ‘when a person intentionally or recklessly assaults another… causing actual bodily harm’." From the prosecutions case today Barton was intent on getting into a scrap with Stendel (or a pushing match) which caused Stendel to fall off balance and hit the side of the tunnel causing injury including the tooth coming loose from the bone. This seems like it'll be a category 3 (although could be a stage 2). "The sentencing guidelines for ABH fall into three categories, with Category 1 is the most serious and involving greater harm and high culpability. Category 2 involves either more significant harm but lower culpability or lesser harm and higher culpability Category 3 involves lesser harm and lower culpability." Given Joey's past History it could honestly go either way if he's found guilty he could be locked up or given another suspended sentence
  17. 6 teams have stadiums with bigger capacities but every other club have better stadiums (how many other teams have tents for stands) Rovers aren't a big League 2 club they are a league 2 club. If we were to get relegated we'd be a big league one club but not just because we got relegated.
  18. Wally would probably accept £5m just to get some money back I feel. But when you need to put in £30m+ for a stadium that isn't even in the planning stage you would question who would want to buy them.
  19. https://twitter.com/KieranMaguire/status/1399990128936992769?s=19 Saw this from Kieran about MM possibly being struck off would this have any impact on Derby at all?
  20. So loyal they can't even fill their ground to attendance even when covid didn't happen. But they are always the victim "we didn't get a capacity crowd because the balloon fiesta is on" (yeah for good reason because Balloon fiesta and city playing at home would be a nightmare) "England are playing at the same time so obviously people will watch that" or like the little brother who will always try and one up you like the rovers fan who went on the Man City forum to say that no one liked us and that rovers were liked more by other teams.
  21. They didn't plan any office space for support staff as they were going to pitch up a couple if tents for the support staff then move them back to tent city when they were playing matches.
  22. Yes but what you're forgetting is that 2.5k equates to 6k because they can just pass the season ticket through the barrier and pay the guard a fiver to look the other way.
  23. He's just a bit angry because "Da Shroos" have 4 stands and no tents. They probably averaged the same or more then Rovers did its honestly amazing how delusional some fans are I mean they must be bigger then Barcelona or Man City I mean everyone loves them. They chastise us for saying we have a divine right to the play offs (which we don't) we just had season on season growth where we were pushing for the play offs.
  24. Please they'll try and sign Fam to "get one over those Ted's for their record signing".
