  1. Cool, man. Let Stevie L snap him up and lay him off 'injured' for about ten grand then
  2. I had a little look and it is repugnant. I had to get out off it quickly. Dear oh dear - and this was once a family club, apparently.
  3. Predictably that did entice an anti-PC rant, then. You think suicide jokes are cool, that's fine but you're then outraged because somebody else doesn't? Who's really being the over-sensitive one, here? Long live free speech.
  4. Yeah, I had it pretty bad in my early-mid teens. No fun at all, especially at that age. To be fair, it doesn't seem to have effected his self-esteem very much, but who really knows? I do suggest we don't do it.
  5. Did you think? I was unsure - it seemed impossible to tell - the shadow (literally) casted doubt on it. The benefit of any doubt goes to the bowler apparently, so out for me. I can not believe the turnabout in fortunes from the first test, it's made for a far more interesting game though. England are right up against it, so can test their steel.
  6. Stoneman (52) not bad for our top order these days!
  7. With all due respect to amateur clubs, reading that it's like they're an amateur club. Of course thieft is wrong but that sounds to me like they may've had to put the players subs up by a fiver to cover the loss, sending a note home to the parents to explain.
  8. Oddly enough, if there's someone associated with them professionally I have got a degree of sympathy with it is Darrell Clarke. He reminds me of John Ward. Hopefully for his own sake he moves on soon. I've met Darrell Clarke and he really is not dopey. Phil Bater is another chap me and a gas head mate at the time, as a teenager, happened to meet personally. I have to say he was very good with us as teenage lads, even with me being City. Kieron Bracken was another Memorial Ground player that was a professional and a gentleman, who I had the pleasure to meet. It does not surprise me that it's descended into scandal since the Pirates have had to do their dirty work to survive since, don't get me wrong! It's odd the same 13 year old gas head mate came along to us in 1994 just for a night out. Lost 2-0 to Peterborough. We still took the piss out of each other but we were just kids. It all got a bit more serious with the 0-2 Beadle game, aged 15.
  9. Is there any chance we can re-title the thread 'The Gift List'? It may also hopefully help sags that do assume we're obsessed to actually, finally, understand where we come from. #Condemned pasty hut #sixth richest club #ticktock
  10. What are they sticking up Dopey's arse? Bit harsh on Southend.
  11. Anyone, yet again, would be lead to believe that it is someone else's fault the sags haven't been able to provide a proper rivalry for 17 years, wouldn't they? This now apparently makes Bristol "even more boring". That's today's instalment of #gaslogic for us:- it's always someone else's fault, from failing to beat 10 men in 84 minutes to Bristol being boring due to no football rivalry.
  12. The amateurism continues from the top, then. Everton are planning to move (have a site, planning permission, finance, no NIMBY opposition) because Goodison Park is cramped and is from a bygone age. There would be no planning permission and overwhelming NIMBY opposition if they set out to use the site to expand or build from scratch on now, in 2017. The housing has sprung around the stadium over the last 100+ years, it did not happen in vice-versa. Besides, Everton would not be stupid or desperate enough to want to do such a thing. Ideas were actually mooted to redevelop the site before their genuinely wealthy financial backer arrived but deemed a complete non-starter. It's a desperately poor attempt to clutch at straws by Wael, if that's what he's said. I sometimes feel a bit detached from the hierarchy and corporate side of things at AG these days but that comment from SL was a great leveller for me! Despite his wealth and level of responsibility, Stevie L still has the time to put the boot into the gas.
  13. We've now had just about a whole generation for genuine Bristolian football fans (whatever you mean by that, most I know are either genuine City or genuine R*vers fans) to get used to having no real rivalry due to the chronic incompetence of Bristol R*vers.
  14. If this were us I think we, in the main, would be hounding Wael for truthful answers - I suggest they are probably that the deal 'fell through' because he does not personally have a pot to piss in let alone enough money to buy R*vers a new ground, that he was naively swindled by Nick Higgs after the Sainsbury's withdrawal and that he wrongly believed this football malarkey would be a walk in the park. I think we would be demanding justice and truth no matter how uncomfortable for us it may be. Justice and truth are not R*vers virtues, though. Spin and lies are their currency. They have made their own bed.
  15. Were Burton better than us???? It does show that if a smaller club than us is ran superbly well, it can over-achieve for a short while and fair play to them for that. It's not a threat we've had from R*vers for a very long time!
  16. A complete demolition and re-build to UWE spec would have to involve rotating the pitch 90degrees and shifting it up into the car park at the Muller Road side of the current ground. My caveat is that I am no architect but I don't need to be to see that there is bugger little space. Even then it'd be a tight squeeze, if possible at all. Then there's the £25m (?) to find. Their more realistic option is to simply knock down the stand opposite the Cricket pavilion and build as gert a size stand as they can in its place. Then tart the rest of the place up as well as possible. The problem we have rebuilding the Atyeo they have with the tent end, the cricket pavilion and probably their home end as well.
  17. They don't want the UWE stadium and are grateful not to be moving, though......? They were even singing it en mass at AG four years ago..........
  18. And to think this was nearly four years ago, now. Hanging on for four years just to eventually be told no. Even Darwin's actual theory of evolution is faster moving than this!
  19. Ewood Park maybe? A ground we've been to four times in four years, and one of our least appealing fixtures in that time, will undoubtably cause frenzied excitement for the club looking down their noses at Barnsley!
  20. He's held with suspicion and regarded with contempt amongst his own on Asschat. A bit like Henbury Gas, his own lot would rather be rid of him I think. He then comes on here but not with any shred of decency like the other resident sags, more like a squirming worm. So it's difficult to know his motives entirely but he's obviously one of life's eternal unfortunates. Probably a squat, bald, middle aged virgin.
  21. Bristol Derby 17/18, celebrating survival at Wycombe the week before relegation - you just can not learn can you?
