I can honestly say, I've never heard that one before!

Google says no. He's a nob.

Some serious cracks starting to show in the one thing holding it all together.

It's cliche but i think he's taken them as far as they can go.

Wally Wael def has..the Family is interest free, they call it Wally's Folly.

Can't lose interest in the football club when you were never interested in the football club to begin with.

What happened and how many did we take last time we played there?

just goes to show what an awful , awful ground it actually is!

Indeed. If you put high production values and a snazzy sound track on a turd, it's still a turd.

I would imagine, like most new builds, that the eventual reality is somewhat less than the dream Gaz.

Sad but true. Struggle to produce anything new bar offices and houses in this part of the world these days.

Hasn't Dyson applied for a total redevelopment of the Rec with a capacity of 18K then? Sounds like a case of wishful thinking on the methane snorters part.

Quite tidy. That should get them drooling.

Does a ticket at Virginia come with a pair of binoculars so you can actually watch the game?

That's not Virgina Tech's stadium but the aptly named,162,000 seater, Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee.

Not sure why they've photoshoped the football pitch in there, perhaps just to show how huge the place is. 2 of Rovers 'stands' can be seen near the bottom of the picture to also help with the scale.

Huge support. Massive 

Sat in one of those newfangled metal tents they hear so much about.

2nd half was as good defensively as the first was offensively. Excellent away performance.

Hamer, on borrowed money go bankrupt sell the mem for housing to "save" the club and rovers end up homeless as a phoenix club starting at the same level as Hereford 

Exactly, why buy it now when you could pick it up for a quid next year.

I imagine they'll need to get the pickups and caravans in and do some donuts on that grass...

They've been complaining that a decent pitch is screwing them as their players have to actually have skill (and it's why they're so awful away)

Couldn't make it up... 

Haha yes i had heard that, i think after the Accrington defeat. Something along the lines of it made it too easy for footballing sides to play around them

I'll just leave this here...

Lawn looks in good nick, really goes well with the new shed. Could do with a shrubbery here or there though.

Reminded me of this from Big Train. Perhaps the sags could consider renaming the stadium.....

I just spotted the cheeky like from JL as well. Brilliant.

I had to check that wasn't fake. They actually tweeted Bristol Rovers official twitter. Top work, clap it in

How about this for an inspiring speech...not exactly Churchill is he....

 

It's just like the times when Landsdown said it wasn't legally correct to let us know that we are looking to build a ground at Ashton Vale or when he did it again about the redevelopment of Ashton Gate or even the new training ground. Uncanny.

I honestly have no idea how anyone, if they follow Rovers, football or not could listen to that or his interview on Sat and not instantly think "bullshitter".

Not really. In all the years 50+ that I’ve been attending AG, I’ve never had a real dislike let alone hatred for the gas. They’re football fans, just as we are but like every club they have a bunch of neantherdals who say and act in dumb and idiotic fashion. 

Some of our fans are exactly the same.

All the furore about burning down stadiums, Holloway chuntering about his dislike for City........all contributes more angst  to certain elements of both sets of fans. To me it’s all a bit Stone Age and I like to think that I’m above all that shit.

I know several gas heads and we often exchange harmless banter about our respective clubs. I’m always able to take the high morale ground.............

I dislike Swindon way more.

Good post apart from the Swindon bit,

I just don’t get why some City fans feel the need to crow when the gas lose. Their result is as inconsequential to me as any other lower league team.

There was a time when the gas were in the same league as us but it’s difficult for me to remember when. It seems so long ago............

So says their supporters chauffeur....

They are inconsequential these days but you've been around long enough to remember why we don't like them surely?

He came across in that interview as shifty and not to be trusted. Not a single straight answer.

They are on the brink of going under if you ask me.

We've got one they can borrow, takes no time at all to set up...

Apparently their best asset now is not a player, the manager or the ground....its the fans!

Your totally fecked if that's the case.

So, 700k in the bank, time to break that transfer record then.

At some point some poor sod is going to be announced as their record signing for a paltry 400k or similar.

Mind the gap or perhaps careful of the chasm might be more apt as modern football continues to move upwards beyond their reach.
