    I saw a Leeds fan being dragged out at the end screaming that he wasn’t a Leeds fan (even though he obviously was).  There were so many Leeds fans mixed in the home end tonight.  No one seemed to care. 

    He's a 100% City fan and was with his kids and partner.

    The guy being led out by loads of stewards. Had blonde hair. 
     

    I saw another guy telling everyone he was a city fan. Maybe your on about him 

    The one I'm on about is the blonde guy. Is that who you are on about?

    The lads with the drum. Sing some really dreary songs. 
    Don’t help at all. 

    That was a few blocks over. It was a Leeds fan

    He's not a Leeds fan. He's been a season ticket holder for years and was trying to get the atmosphere going.

    Just as we shouldn’t arrogantly start making plans for a home tie with United in the way that the quartered cretins did, we shouldn’t downplay our chances either. We’ve already beaten tougher opposition than Forest this season. Pring and TGH may be out but we’ve still got players that can hurt them. Forest themselves may be looking at their fixture list and their league position and concluding that the FA cup isn’t their priority. It’s a winnable tie and the potential rewards will ensure we put in our best possible shift.

    Why are Pring and TGH out?

    Afternoon all, just a small bit of information to share with you regarding the dismissals of Rennie & Euell 

    during the recent international break Rennie & Euell decided to give extended breaks to the players. Most went away etc and came back without doing much and went into intensive training hence the list of injuries picked up. Joe Williams is set to be sidelined for around 6-8 weeks (not sure if that’s been posted anywhere)

    Nige was off with bad health after a minor operation on his back & having issues with Nerve endings that’s the reason he’s been on crutches. Not sure why Fleming didn’t have a say etc.

    Any info on a new manager?

    Yeah, but sadly we didn't even try to have a shot in those 9 minutes! We tried to play it into the net, rather than just having a pop from anywhere!

    9 mins? He was sent off in injury time last week

    All of the Swansea fans were still in the Atyeo in the several mins that it took me to exit AG.

    One thing that did surprise me was the lack of visible police. The only time I saw any activity was when a squad car with blue was racing down the Winterstoke Rd on the opposite side heading toward AG.

    I agree to an extent about lack of visible police. This is a lot of Swansea fans walking across the park at the end of the game. Could of got nasty and police did show up 5 mins after.EA76B49D-138F-4014-A237-10417274E45A.thumb.jpeg.5817ead462b2d32362d430f288282d73.jpeg

    Will give it a go - prone to getting a few slightly wrong but I feel your frustration (particularly when a new one gets sung and you can't really follow no matter how catchy):

    • Alex Scott has his own song.

    The logical song - Scooter: His name's Alex Scott and he is so wonderful, he get's the ball, he's magical, beautiful. When he runs down the wing he's as fast as lightening, it's frightening and he makes the City sing. Do do do do do do etc.

    • Chris Martin has his own song.

    Chase the sun - aka "the darts theme" do do do do do do... Chris Martin

    Do wah diddy - ends; he looks good, he looks fine, Chrissy Martin's on my mind and he's City's number 9 (assume instead of running past the German's [Harry Kane version] we sing "running past the Cardiff")

    • Wells has a couple.

    Give it up - KC & the sunshine band (?) (we used to sing it for Marvin Elliott), now it's Nahki Nahki Wells, Nahki Wells, Nahki Nahki Wells.

    Haven't heard another I don't think (I have missed a lot more games than I'd like to have this year mind you)

    • Semenyo has one.

    Don't know the name of the tune but nearly all other fans seem to sing "we're the xx boys, making all the noise, everywhere we go", it's that one.

    Viva Semenyo, Running down the wing, makes the City sing, viva Semenyo

    • Bentley has one.

    Can't believe it is Chaka Kahn but... Chaka Khan - Ain't no body, like Dan Bentley, makes me happy, makes me feel this way

    • Baker had one.

    Based on the old Tinman chant, if we are to sing this for Baker at some point, I'm sure it'll be sung a lot & someone will post it somewhere. I can't remember most of it.

    • Obviously HNM has one.
    • Weiman has one. (done, above)

    Also tend to sing "Weimann's on fire" every now and again (freed from desire)

    • JD has one.

    Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough - lots of do do do'ing ... Jay Dasilva (I'm pretty sure the rest is just the words from the actual song)

    • Conway has one.

    Don't you want me baby - Tommy Conway Baby

    Some blokes behind us at Wigan were singing: Land of 1000 Dances (one of many Blues Brothers' songs in the film) - Na nana na naa nana na na... Tommy Conway

     

    no one joined in, could have been catchy.

    • Rob Atkinson (had one for a short time last year, I thought it was class)

    Heaven is a place on earth. Belinda Carlisle - Oh Lansdown do you know what he's worth, Rob Atkinson's the best on earth, a brick sh!thouse, is just what we need, taking City to the premier league.

    Totally agree, although the length of time players stay around probably makes that less likely though. Sykes for example, I'm not going to put forward a suggestion but he puts in a shift every time he's out there and is absolutely done by the time he gets subbed off, chanting his name could give him an extra bit of fuel. Kalas doesn't have one, as has been pointed out, he's been around a while.

    Sometimes something triggers a chant and you associate it with a player and it's quite a while after they joined (Flint, "flint said no" came from one of our last home games in the promotion season, he'd gone through a full resurgence and the fans loved his attitude - if you can call it that - re: other fans). I like that it's quite organice when a new chant comes through, especially when you can't get a Creedance Clear water revival song out of your head for a week because 500 city were singing it at Millwall.

    I know none of the chants are original but at least it rarely feels forced, and it's not usually the same tune 95% of english football fans are singing at the time. The creativity, poetic license and fun City fans have with chants is one of the many reasons why away games are great if you can get to them.

    Can someone please summarise what's happened? Really don't want to click/view the rovers website, especially if it then leaves cookies on my phone and me then seeing rovers adverts on other websites! 

    Bristol Rovers can confirm that defender Nick Anderton has been diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer.

    As a result of this, Nick will undergo an operation in the coming weeks to remove this part of the bone.

    Nick has issued the following statement:

    "Unfortunately, this rare form of cancer which is affecting my femur means that I’ll be undergoing an operation in the coming weeks.
     
    "This diagnosis has come as a huge shock to both myself and my family; however, we are remaining positive and hopeful.
     
    "I want to thank everyone at Bristol Rovers, especially Club Doctor Ian Ferguson and Head of Medical Stuart Leake, the specialists at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham and my family for their continued support.
     
    I want to wish the boys all the best for the upcoming season, starting this Saturday back at The Mem. Hopefully I can be swinging off another traffic light on Gloucester Road come May! ?
     
    Nick ?"
