Wow he's won family club of the year a few times - now we know why they brought him in as that's obviously a perfect fit... I do worry about directors that can't even spell Independent :laugh:...

I was so happy that day...

Those championship sprinklers playing up again?

They've clearly not run out of money - those carpet cleaners aren't cheap you know! Even if they were bought cheap at the Mem's car boot sale...

Wow he sounds lovely...

Firstly I wish they'd learn to break things in to paragraphs... Secondly they're still screaming about attendances, not realising that despite being very expensive for the poor facilities their supporters have to put up with that attendance isn't the be all and end all for clubs these days. Their rival clubs can now make a lot more where they've got newer facilities. They honestly seem to think their car boot sale in the car park brings in the same as conferencing facilities or commercial rentals - the ones who can tell "corporate income" aside from hospitality that is...

When the guy called him LJ I thought "cover blown maybe?" as that's normally more our term for him, but apart from one calling him a Ted they're mostly too busy fighting like cats and dogs to notice...

Nick Higgs?!

Well that's the Mem regeneration done then. Now just to mow the lawn at the Colony and that's all Wael's promises sorted.

Relocating them to a better stadium? Or just to the pub down the road?!

It also appears their mascot's kit was out of date: "With regard to Captain Gas, we are pleased that he has now been provided with new kit and will be wearing it for the first time tomorrow!"

Yes, the: "and the possibility of providing wet weather clothing to those supporters not undercover when it rains. " bit really did entertain me - it's almost like the poor area in Shakespeare's time, no seats or cover for them either...

When the Al Qadis took over and promised them UWE, Hamer said breakeven was 15k, which is why they couldn't stay at the Mem as they'd die. Of course then UWE fell through at they're staying at the Mem, so wish they'd get on with ending...

Yep you wouldn't want anything awful like taking a "prowed" club out of the league on your CV... Those were such happy times :laugh:...

Agreed - I just laugh at how their lot always manage to descend from discussing whether finding a general term offensive quickly descends into listing their preferred insults and why they're not offensive until the thread gets closed :laugh: And yeah that Facebook post was beyond parody, even for them!

Uh oh they're back to their "we can't stand being PC" rants where they get very, very close to racism... Sorry did I say close? I meant well past it, decency isn't even in the rear view mirror any more. Classy bunch, such a family club

Some are even suggesting Saint Darrell of Dogbotherer escape before the lack of transfer funds sullies his unblemished and holy reputation...

Indeed, by comparison Ozzy is an eloquent, well-informed intelligent individual...

Classic on their other forum: http://gasheads.org/thread/6757/hope-wrong 'Arry would apparently want to be DoF at some tinpot club that can't afford to top up his dog's finances (plus he'd be worried about his bulldog around their management!) Got a feeling a few of our wind up merchants might be on there :laugh: as one has pointed out maybe Wael's kit means he wants to be the manager Maybe player manager at this rate :laugh:...

He does look like the grandson of a familiar face:

Absolute class :laugh:. Yet another thing for them to have an inferiority complex about. It's the same if you Google "Bristol football club" etc. - and I love how wound up they get about people calling us Bristol... Sometimes it's like they don't even exist

 

Nice to hear that from a forum other than our own!

:laugh: they try to claim we're obsessed due to the size of this thread. Whereas in reality it's that we can keep our ridicule of them (mostly) to one thread, while every single one over there is riven through with their jealous inferiority complex...

Wonder if the old directors are actually being paid from the club itself? Using the credit facility to pay for the takeover, in the way the Glazers loaded Man U up with debt? And think Bert Tann or someone mentioned the Colony being registered to Dwane Colony Ltd - if Dwane Sports are already the owners of it I doubt they'll want to put a charge on it... Think January will be very interesting - if they're selling Bodin "because he won't sign a new contract" (but in reality to cover the bills) and the Colony hasn't started to be built then maybe, finally, even their more deluded fans might think something is up. I noticed the old planning permission for the Colony did include some conversion to residential property - do you think Hamer's Post interview where he mentions 30 acres repeatedly is to butter R*vers fans up? http://developments.southglos.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=constraints&keyVal=NQUUHTOK0C500 "We're using half - only half honest! - for housing to get the investors on board. We're just starting the houses first because..."
