  1. May I suggest you consider the Memorial Stadium instead. Our grandstands are adapted from the traditional American covered wagon design so you'll feel more at home.
  2. Is it anything to do with Mr Al-Quidi's wallet being in an unnatural position ?
  3. Please don’t tell me Jumping Jack Tomlinson has left ?
  4. After Mr Barton’s despicable behaviour on Tuesday Mr Al-Quidi has called him into the office tomorrow morning for a good dressing gown. He’s sent Mr Gorringe down to Lewis’s and Jones’s to find one.
  5. Are you that extremely tall skinny fellow Fred Ford used to talk about ?
  6. Rovers head of fales Mr David Dim has today announced the capacity of our proposed permananent temporary wrap around stand has been increased to 4000 and it will be renamed the South West North East Stand. The news that construction is to be completed in July was met with incredulity by supporters and the Bristol City Council planning department alike but Mr Dim is standing by his story. He told reporters gathered outside the Atomic Bugger on Gloucester Road that contractors have assured him the minute this season ends he will feel the earth move under his feet and the sky come a tumbling down. Later adding that his heart starts to tremble whenever he hears the words new ground.
  7. Has anyone got a replica “ Pickles” ?
  8. He also owns a 9% stake in the Arab Jordan Investment Bank where the Al-Quidi family retain 27%. By my reckoning that makes the Al Quidi's considerably richer than him. And Rovers three times as valuable as Manchester United. You know it makes sense.
  9. Mr Al-Quidi Jnr is listed as being the owner of an 8.5% stake in AJIB worth £ 18.7 million. But there is speculation over this having been pledged to cover the £ 22 million contributed to Rovers as capital and that no more will be forthcoming.
  10. There are establishments on Whiteladies Road that charge you £90 to be abused and it only lasts for half an hour. ( according to my nephew)
  11. One of the reasons we used to call it Eastville for Entertainment. That system was a forerunner of my later invention the personal computer.
  12. It's all right the fence is fully paid for now it just needs an electrical connection.
  13. Quite right Rudy but as usual Rovers are ahead of the game. Supporters who can see through Mr Al-Quidi’s “Barton Bubble” have already been sent to Coventry.
  14. Our Chief Scout Christopher Spendlove was charged with murder and malicious wounding. His co-defendants were convicted but the case against "our man" was dropped.
  15. The Horfield medical community is split on this issue. South of the Common the unanimous verdict is Celebrity Worship Syndrome but North of the Common, particularly around the skatepark, the consensus is Obsessive Love Disorder with a touch of Erotomania.
  16. I know what you lot are like. You're not just looking forward to the Rotherham game and the England game are you ? You're manically straining at the leash because you simply can't wait to see pictures of the big screen and the hordes of Gasheads crammed into the Thatchers end on Saturday night. Well here's a sneak preview
  17. Joey Barton has revealed how ex-England captain John Terry welcomed him to the national squad with a classy phone call. The former Manchester City midfielder’s international career lasted just 18 minutes when Steve McClaren brought him off the bench for a friendly against Spain in 2007. Now manager at Fleetwood, Barton recalls a phone call from Chelsea legend Terry which left a lasting impression on him after he was named in the squad. “I thought I should’ve been in the three or four squads before that, so I thought I was never getting in,” Barton told talkSPORT. “Then I got the phone call from the FA, which was closely followed by a call from John Terry, who was the England captain at the time. “He was fantastic on the phone. He spoke about what was expected of an England player, welcomed me into the group and said, ‘Look, you should’ve been here earlier but it’s great to have you in the group’. “It really made me feel at home. I didn’t feel like the new boy on the school playground.” Terry, now assistant manager at Aston Villa, was stripped of the England captaincy twice following his affair with Wayne Bridge’s ex-girlfriend and racial abuse of Anton Ferdinand. But Barton, who saw his fair share of controversy during an eventful playing career, still holds Terry in the highest regard. “Everything I’ve seen about John since, I’ve never changed my opinion of him. I just remember that phone call and I thought it was a real moment of class. “It was everything I expected of the England captain and it really helped me settle. It was phenomenal.” Barton was subsequently ignored by Fabio Capello and the former Newcastle man previously told talkSPORT he deserved more caps. He said last year: “Capello had never met me and at the time we’d just come back up to the Premier League with Newcastle and I believe I was playing as well as anyone in the country.” But now Barton reveals a drunken incident may have affected his England chances. “Unfortunately for me, that was the only squad I got in,” he added. “I actually played brilliantly against Spain who went on to become world and European champions. “But because I went out, had a few pints and got in an altercation in the city centre, I was never called up again.”
  18. Sorry to hear news about the Fruit Market Stadium coming from tonight's Supporters Club fans forum.
  19. ******* Breaking news from The Mem ****** Rovers new signing Scott Sinclair has parted from fiance Elsie Tanner who is said to be "shacked up" with Jerry Booth in Minnie Caldwell's spare room. The Weatherfield Gazette will have further updates throughout the night.
