Bianconeri

I agree, even if it’s not going his way he keeps defenders bottled up. When fully fit we’ll need that to battle out wins on wet Tuesday nights

Thankfully the mods have taken all of the images down. A very good move.

I smell a large heap of BS. I’ve managed more commercial contracts with Offshore and Overseas companies than you can shake a stick at and ‘additional tax issues’ is just a nonsense. A week to sort out a few loose ends maybe but four months?

Hilarious! I’ve been the the New Meadow a few times and it’s a decent, functional small stadium. It lacks the undoubted charm of the old ground but it’s more than ok and a quantum leap forward from the CH4drome.

I think you undersell it!. I was 16 when we went up and lived for a fair chunk of my formative years in ‘blue’ areas. My late mum and her parents came from Kingswood but luckily my grandfather saw the light and was dyed in the wool red. I reckon I missed one home game in the Division 1 days and I think half the ‘trouble’ inside he ground was true away fans turning on sags who’d come to see us lose but were too spineless to come near the EE. It makes the ‘Teds in the away end thing’ all the more laughable. About 15 years ago I was in a bar in Geneva after a Grenats (Servette) game. I was with some Swiss friends so probably not even speaking English when some Neanderthal shouted ‘Shithead’ at me and started shouting ‘Roverzzzzzzz’ across the bar. Who gives these morons passports? That club has alwas defined ‘success’ as ‘better than City’ whereas we seem to prefer ‘the best we can be’. Mind you, my sister defined 80/81 as a good season because we finished above the Sags - we were both relegated and we finished wih more points than goals but we were above them in the table. I see a few parallels wih the early 1970s at the moment. We have backed a beleagued manager and he looks to be starting to come good. Sags have done reasonably well on the pitch but finances look to be dire. The important thing is that should we get promoted we manage it better this time, and compared with the 1970s the media coveage would be vast. That would tip our neighbours over the edge in so many ways.

We have played for nine seasons in the top league. The other five are conveniently forgotten by horse punchers as it was before they first became a league club. By that twist of #gaslogic nothing before 2015 should count now.

A doublesag (again)

Interesting that, we would have to define the ACTUAL away following, the REPORTED away following on Pratchat and the HISTORICAL away following in various moronic posts on the same. It’ll be along the lines of buses, where the ACTUAL crowd is, say, 10 minibuses REPORTED as 10 double deckers with 10 more locked out, and HISTORICALLY and FACTUALLY* recorded as 10 trains full.

First find the money to buy the land. Second get planning permission and change of use for the land Third find the money to build the stadium Fourth survive long enough to reach step 1 Calling them “Deluded halfwits” is being unkind to the deluded, halfwits, and deluded halfwits.

It’s a record-breaking thread in some respects as it reached the 6th page before it turned into an anti-City ant-Lansdown diatribe. The question should really be ‘are all football clubs in financial trouble?’ And, of course, without the largesse of benefactors or extreme god fortune the vast majority would be. All this ‘tax dodger’ nonsense borders on slander IMHO, Steve L made his money in the UK and doubtless paid more tax in a year than most pay in a lifetime..He elected to buy a property in Guernsey, which anyone can thanks to their ‘open market’ property market, and still invests heavily in UK companies - which pay taxes, etc... We remain owned by a UK company whose major shareholder still lives in GB. They, on the other hand, are owned by an offshore (GB) company whose major shareholders live in Jordan. Perhaps someone should explain the basics of how an Islamic Bank (e.g. one from Jordan) operates too, but i fear that the collective IQ of the 2015ers’ ‘support’ is not up to it.

Sorry no, Bristol is similar to Bradford and will end up with one league team (better than Bradford’s), a Conference (South) team and a top flight rugby club ( different code). In fact, nothing like Bradford then, and Bath City as the area’s second most senior team is fine isn’t it?

So did Manor Farm, even Oldland Abbotonians had more for the visit of the mighty Warminster.

You won't be far wrong I suspect.

While it would be good sport to buy their first team and loan them out to various L2 and Conference clubs, is there (honestly) one Sag player who would even make our reserve / development squad?

Was it on bricks by half time?

For some reason I read that as "shitter"

Sorry, there was a typo in your original post mate.

I didn't realise that the sags once rose to the dizzy heights of playing Burton Albion. That truly was a cup final for them. I bet they took 15 or 20 million away for that.

The Colony Training Ground Scrap Yard anyone?

Further irony, The New Lawn replaced The Lawn in 2006. As a new stadium it's already in better shape than the Swamp and yet FGR intend to build a new one. Sags should rent The New Lawn when FGR relocate. They'd get to play in a proper stadium until they finally go bust and we'd be rid of them. Fixture clashes with Shortwood would hit their gates of course.

Remembering the NLBR monicker, when they hit the buffers and go into administration will they be known as BRIAN? Bristol Rovers In AdministartioN

Terrible game, as soon as we meet a team with a bit of muscle it unravels.

And again by the number of months sentenced for boob cricket to the power of horses abused?
