They joined the football league in 1920 

And left in 2015

Relegation, part of the ‘cultural change’

you can’t make this up

1000 to 2000 to away games

they just can’t help it

These absolute mongs never fail to amaze me

 

we averaged 26,000 one season in the 50’s in what now is the championship, and over 13,000 in 1973/74 promotion season, if you think small you will remain small, I’m 100% convinced, supply a ground on the level of Ashton Gate, fund the team accordingly and we’d be averaging over 20,000 a season I’m sure.

I don’t even know where to start with this one. He’s taken an average crowd from 70 years ago, an average crowd from 46 years ago, thrown in the usual reference to us and calculated a 20k average!  All without acknowledging they are starting in the basement division again next season with very little chance of championship football for many years. I’m not even sure they have 20 thousand fans in Bristol any more, their support base has dwindled to a few mouthy deluded idiots spouting bollocks on social media and radio phone ins. 
I’ll leave this here

Relegation to the basement is a ‘massive stepping stone to success’  the reverse logic of these special fans is truly outstanding

Absolutely mental

What was it Barton said not long after he took over? I looked out over the city and thought ‘it’s ours to take’

what a beauty

Hahahahaha, a £15,000 IWC.

SL probably wears one of those when he’s grouting the bathroom.

That was another gas exaggeration as well, it was a Franck mueller black conquistador, approx £6k. Not like the gas to inflate numbers is it. 

Creaming themselves cos an ex player of ours(who hasn't played since July) made a mistake. Truly a very disturbed fan base

Whoever writes the Scum’s match reports is on some very strong drugs. A sampling:

“Rovers were…not plucky. We will not say plucky. That word conjures thoughts of trying hard with little quality. This was not the case. The side two divisions inferior showed genuine ability, time and again, and displayed intent to win the tie. Perhaps, ultimately, it was their downfall. But golly, the attempt was a valiant one.”

“Eight minutes into the game, there was a minor concern over a Rovers player, who took a ball full in the face from close range. One wonders if the shout came…”’Ed Up, Son”.”

“”VAR, VAR, VAR…” chanted the large contingent of Brighton fans taking up the South Stand. We are happy with our new big screen, Seagulls, but this is The Mem. Cool kit launch videos we can do, but VAR is not quite our responsibility yet.”

“there was not much to separate Pirates and Seagulls -let’s face it, both of them would nick your chips”

“Then, from Tom Nichols’ well-guided pass to the right flank, Josh Hare whipped in a cross which Adeboyejo was perfectly positioned to convert, only to be denied by a brilliant intervention by Adam Webster.”

<Webster obviously intimidated by the Whorefield Ultras... >

“Rover launched one final flurry...”

<He’s come out of his shell since Darrell left...>

“Cup chances, gone for a Burton. But a trip to Britain’s brewing capital will see Gasheads with glasses at least three-quarters full.”

...unlike their stadium. 

Is this real? Surely that’s Bert Tanns work! If not you are right, very strong drugs. 

Disgrace

I see one of the family clubs fans called sky’s Michelle Owen a “shithead slag” on Twitter tonite, absolute lowlife scum.

A fairly standard response and fair play to him. Gasheads now saying the council will compulsory purchase the site for new development to include high end apartments and a stadium....

Most of them are genuinely off their heads.

Imagine my shock, they expect the council to buy the land for them, something for nothing again. They are the most deluded fan base in the history of deluded fanbases

At the time for me it really hurt. It was the fact that we had thrown the title away when it was in our hands, and fair play Rovers took advantage and won the title, but what followed really made me despise Rovers.

they took advantage alright, by calling off the original fixture due to an ‘unplayable surface’ the fact we were flying on an unbeaten run and they were in a mini slump must have been a coincidence. Not the only time they’ve pulled that stunt. Oh and by the way Bath city played on the unplayable surface the day after our fixture was called off. 

They are a detestable football club

The crowd for the last ever game at their ‘spiritual home’ the ‘famous’ Eastville was just over 3.5 k, we had more in the east end for the last game before it was knocked down. Faithful and true eh?

As a good friend of mine posted on our WhatsApp group earlier... has anyone else noticed who directors of the company (Stadia solutions limited) that they’ve bought this big screen from are...??!! 

steven and Margret lansdown

I think we has about 21,000 and City about 24,000. It's just that they can get them in to their ground

what a belter

Jesus! I’ve just seen the video, they have The lettering on the socks, the silly slogan the daft muppets always add to anything they write, absolute tinpot

What are our scouts doing?? We’ve missed out here!!

That’s it then they are coming!

Famously good in their own deluded minds and the deluded mind of the gas season ticket holding editor of that rag

Haha, brilliant

With the increase in seating, now from the sounds of it at the expense of terracing, it feels like they’re getting ready for the possibility of a 3 year stint in the championship before we actually move from the Mem or get it properly rebuilt.
