  1. Blimey, you'd think Mr Cockman would have got one of his friends to lay a bit of Tarmac down to make wheelchair access a bit smoother.
  2. You are right ! Knock the fizzing off!
  3. Had a similar thing the other week after a game walking along the waterfront with my girl(age 7) . She had her city shirt on and we passed a few blokes coming the other way. One shouts out '**** the city, up the g*s'. Surprisingly rather than feeling anger it was more pity, how sad that someone feels the need to shout that in front of a small child! Shows how bitter some of them are, I say some as some of my good mates are g*s and are nothing like these muppets.
  4. Grew up and still live in the wood. I'm late 40s now and when I was growing up I'd say it was about 50/50 city/rovers with the people I knew.I started watching in 77 when we were div. 1 and I think being in the top league attracted a lot of young fans whose families had no alliance to either side. With the improved ground and us playing championship football you can only see the gap in fan numbers growing if things stay the same as its a similar situation for young fans with no family ties to one team or another.
  5. I take it that now they haven't lost for a few games they must be coming for us again!
  6. I was at the Wigan game with my 7 year old daughter. She asked me "dad do Bristol Rovers have a stadium like this?" As seriously as I could manage I said" well theirs is a lot smaller and some of their stands are tents". "Tents dad?" She said and laughed her head off. Age 7 and finding the rovers amusing already!
  7. When the best thing at the mem, is the sprinkler system, that's the rovers. when you've put the wrong sand on the pitch ,life's such a bitch, that's the rovers
