I've always assumed you were a female. No particular reason. I'm glad I didn't send you a flirty PM now!

As long as you don't whisk him off on honeymoon before the end of May....!

I hope we don't go 2-0 up. We've got a terrible record from that position this season.

Wow. SL must have earned about £5 per second for the whole of that time!

What on earth makes a lower league fan of either/both clubs who have had a terrible time of it over the last 5/10 years or so and still remain firmly routed in our shadow, feel the need to go on the forum of a bigger, higher placed, more progressive and all round better club giving it the big one..?! I'd be too embarrassed and try and convince myself that I didn't care!

Or you cheat to gain an unfair advantage.

Or cheat to get players sent off. Dive outside the box into the box to con the referee and generally get every bit of luck that's been going for the past 2 seasons to scrape fortuitous promotions. The only way you "create your own luck" is by cheating. It wont last forever. Serious question... When was the last time Rovers won a football match against a team who finished the game with 11 men or didn't have a penalty to help them..?

It was a disgrace and I was fully in support of your boycott. It's a shame that 400 still went. I draw the line at ever wanting you to win a match though. Even against Swindon!

So far, so good. 1-0 Swindon.

I can't handle not particularly wanting Rovers to lose tonight, because it would mean a win for Swindon. It feels dirty and wrong, so I've just stuck a tenner on Swindon to win. No I feel justified in wanting Rovers to lose!

To which his dad replies.."look son, finish your spaghetti hoops, clean the Source off your face and go to work. When you get home, someone has to play Santa and you are the only on "special enough" to do it..!"

Or because we'd sold 18k home tickets for our next match and 2.5k for our next Saturday away game..?

Sounds like standard Gas, spreading the gospel of shite and then looking a fool when someone speaks up and clarifies the truth. If they weren't so full of crap, people might have a little bit more tolerance. What's wrong with what he could have said, along the lines of .. "If I wasn't here I'd be at Bradford away. I expect we'll take about 5-600 today, which isn't bad at all for a club of our size. Infact we probably have one of the better away followings in relation to our home attendances. We've just got investment that should secure the club's future and give us some stability, although he's hardly splashing the cash, hopefully he'll finally get us out of our current shitpit of a ground and into desperately needed better facilities. We've clawed our way back to where we should be now, after a disastrous last 5/10 years. Anyway, where's your Mrs? Do you mind if I inappropriately grope her in front of your children, oh and you don't happen to have bought a horse here with you, did you..? Only I'm feeling a little irritated and need to punch a defensless animal. What do you mean that's wrong? What are you, a fcuking sh'ed..?!"

Hold tight. There is bound to be something in the next couple of days.

So, what have they done today to keep us amused..?

I'm not usually one for boycotting matches, but I'd refuse to pay again to go to this match, so let's give them some leeway on attendance at this one. We'd only look stupid if we tried to mock them for a very valid boycott, on this occassion. As for the match, I can't remember a game where I've wanted neither team to win quite so much! A crap 0-0 with lots of sendings off would probably be the favoured outcome.

Yes, of course. I'm not saying they are even close to the same thing. I was clearly noting the irony that Rovers, of all fans, think that mocking a club because of a stadium fire was... Well there are no words to describe what they might have thought it was. Dispicable is the only word that sums it up.

I completely agree, although the irony of Eastville & Twerton appears to have been lost on you too!

And incredibly ironic, I'd say!!

That's not a bad following at all for a team that are in a relegation scrap. Bradford is a bloody long way to treck when you have no real belief in your team.

Everyone knows that it's a case of "when" NOT "if" Derby start banging in goals. Please just let them have one more off day first..! A front 2 of Vydra & Wilson is superb at this level, added to Ince, Russell & others, they have real talent. Easily capable of dishing out a hammering. I fear the worst today, so I'd be ok with a draw on that basis. Can we strike back like a proverbial wounded animal and hand out a ruthless, polished, clinical drubbing of our own..? Now wouldn't that be nice..?! COYR!

Serious question.... Is this only just dawning on you..? Were the majority of "sh'eds" actually right all along...?

I know UWE is the far inferior Bristol uni, compared to Bristol university, but it's hardly the "Florence Brown" of universities, or the "Bristol Rovers" of football clubs if you like..!

Absolutely. I can see why they idolise him like a god for denying us our progress to the Prem. I get that. But to think that reminding us of our achievements in getting to that position somehow upsets us shows just what morons they are and how far their priorities are detached from ours is quite pathetic. Colin Daniel however...! Now their is a god like figure who enables mockery of the highest order on our part and shame & embarresment on theirs.

What, like they are "no worse" than the rest of the clubs* in league one..? * not including the 18 clubs currently above them* in aforementioned league one. *they have a game in hand, you know..!
