  1. For the ninth time this season Rovers were the better team but lost. With those extra 27 points in the bag we’d be 8 clear at the top. Young Martin wants seven thousand a week for an eighteen month stretch but the only contract Alf is interested in at the moment is a short sell on gas futures.
  2. The narrow width of the concourse ( aka the Quidi Strip ) is giving Alf some major headaches. Apparently there are safety concerns about it being the only entry and exit point for 3000 spectators. Strange because in my experience it’s usually the length which gives rise to complaints.
  3. On the Rovers fans forum there is talk of demolishing surrounding streets to make room for redevelopment of the Mem. I hope they remember to let our neighbours know before sending in the wrecking balls.
  4. It’s coming back though SDA just look at how my protege Angela Postecoglou is doing at Tottenham. Rovers already have scouts working undercover in North Korea looking for the next Son Heung-minge.
  5. People will open their eyes when the guardians of Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Xtwitter and Tik Tok tell them to.
  6. When Matthew Taylor asked for advice I told him to raise his left leg above the ground just before midnight so he starts 2024 on the right foot.
  7. January will see significant squad strengthening at Rovers. Alf junior has already contacted Tottenham Hotspur to ask “ how much is Udogie in the window ?”
  8. If it’s found that Mr Al-Quidi didn’t make full disclosure of Rovers’ liabilities Alf Seed may be forced to call on the services of Nicholas Higgs’ litititigation team.
  9. It’s true there are some minor cash flow issues and our Disabled Supporters Association has been told it will have to fund the cost of the lavatories in our new showpiece South Stand. Normal service will be resumed once Alf has grounded the Quidi drones.
  10. Rovers are much more modester than what you are. City have always been a bunch of loosers.
  11. If you need marketing expertise Mr Gorringe will be available in the January (shop) window.
  12. From the Severn to the Frome All I see is Gashead gloom
  13. Oh Hughie Hughie Hughie Hughie Hughie get yer walking stick
  14. Hard to believe it Peter but 99% of the playing staff and officials at Rovers including the board of directors still call him Puff Daddy instead of Diddy. I hate to think what David Hamilton would make of it.
  15. You are thinking of Minnie Caldwell.
  16. Following the first test event the Safety Advisory Group have expressed some slight concerns about the stability of Rovers new South Stand.
  17. If you appoint that Bo Svensson as manager I reckon you'll be in the Premier League within three seasons. You lucky buggers.
  18. Massimiliano Allegri is the early favorite with Betted
  19. I’ve heard the Lansdowns are shacked up in a caravan at Sand Bay with Mr Al-Quidi and Alf Saeed.
  20. One hundred and forty years is not a bad run. Whoever could have predicted that a fall out between a Jordanian and a Kuwaiti would end it all ?
  21. Property Natter - Bristol suburb and a stadium home grab ? FEATURES 14 October 2023 2241 Reads 0 Comments By Bob Ajob We want to buy your house and we'll pay whatever you like - it sounds like a dream come true but it's rumored to be happening in Horfield, Bristol. Notes pushed through letterboxes late at night is the preferred method of communication for a property investment vehicle which seems determined to purchase a number of homes adjoining a sports stadium in North Bristol. One recipient Mr Kenneth Pratt, who did not wish to be named, said the sums involved are astronomical and way above what our June got for her semi last year. We tried to get some local insight by pulling strings with the CEO of Bristol Estate Agents Association Ms Elsie Curtain but she refused to be drawn. Acquiring neighboring properties would certainly smooth the way for expansion of the stadium but prices in the area are already high and tens of millions would be required if this is indeed what is intended. Unfortunately we were unable to obtain a comment from Mr Alfred Seed the mysterious owner of the offshore truss which supports Bristol Rovers.
  22. I think the elusive “Gasburner” is a friend of Mr Al- Quidi who goes by the name of Comical Ali. He is not a friend of Alf Saeed.
  23. Talking about the proposed new Oxford United ground which is just about to receive something called planning permission if anybody knows what that is ? Post by The Equaliser 17 minutes ago yattongas said: about an hour ago Roadman said: Yes it is, very near the train station just off Kidlington, a bit like Brighton, outskirts of the city with a great bus network to it as well. Very expensive area for the land, they have done well. To get planning it’s 16,000 for now, they can’t go over this but once built they can apply for 18,000. Used to drive by there quite a lot in the past , quite a way out of Town . I wouldn’t be that happy if I was an Oxford fan . Ps isn’t all land pretty expensive around Oxfordshire? Basically like us moving to Twerton again.
  24. I tried but she wouldn’t give me a twirl
  25. Alf Saeed thought Rovers would be a nice plaything for young Abdullatif but the more he delves into it the more he realises what a mess he's landed himself with. What if it turns out he's not such a lovely bloke as Mr Al-Quidi and decides to liquidate ?
