It's the same old nonsense but if it were not confined to this thread it would scatter across the board like a particularly nasty recurrent rash that makes you regret getting drunk that time in the Philippines upon each noxious gaseous belch of their misfiring organisation.

Gaschat is a bit like a facist ant-colony. You watch the little people scurry about professing their love of the 15ers, blissfully unaware of the tissue paper spread over colossal holes in the club. Odd how so many can be so fantastically deluded.

Gas Guzzler is more sensible as smaller forums often are. Gas Chat is an idiot babbling with many voices.

The other gasheads seem equally bemused by the OP!

I really like that mug tbh, I've spent many hours looking at teletext results and an equivalent one for City would be on my Christmas list.

Why are all kit launches at all clubs advertised with these ridiculous stiff poses. They look like they've making their way gingerly to the gents after a double strength vindaloo and a gallon of Bass.

Becoz it street and edgy innit.

Anybody caught smiling gets fined a week's wages.

I was joking Philgas, a "starry eyed dreamer" would hardly be "dreaming" of 16th place in L1!

Someone would have done due diligence though I imagine?

I'm sure that this would have been done thoroughly and correctly.

What would be dubious would be the financial projections accompanying them.  Higgs ran it on a shoestring and they ended up in the Conference when his "cross your fingers" strategy didn't work; so you are buying on a P&L that for the last two years reflects low spending and high incomes from two promotion seasons.

Bump that spending up to moderate and achieve 16th place in L1 (as that starry-eyed dreamer Philgas is hoping for) and the losses will start to mount and Wael may get bored of his expensive plaything and buy a rugby club nearer London instead.

Maybe it's just a training scheme for young Wael.  

His family, despairing of him not having a proper job and just hanging around the house all day, asked him what he wanted to do and he said "I want to run Chelsea football team mummy".

Well his family had a meeting at 7pm after he'd gone to bed with his milk and biscuits and decided that there was no way that they were going to risk a huge chunk of the family money by buying Chelsea and letting little Wael run it so they decided that they would instead buy him a pretend Chelsea for a few quid for him to play with and which would let him wear a suit to football dos and meet his Chelsea heroes.

Young Wael was given the news the next day and was so excited he packed all of his Chelsea FC underpants into a suitcase and rushed off to Bristol.

Who needs Keith Chimp? I told you all months ago.

We got a signed Cheltenham card for someone at work. The only signature we could read was, to his credit, Nathan Tyson.

There must be some rule about unreadable signatures in football clubs.

She's just the stewardess who took the picture at somebody else's request. She's nothing to do with the gas so I wish people would just leave off her.

Has anyone ever considered that they are infact an elaborate prank? A Spinal Tap of the football world if you will. This would explain the constant feed of hilarious news coming from them. I think the joke is on us and someone somewhere is giggling at us for falling for it. 

Crikey, I think you may be right and we now look very very stupid indeed.

I thought Chris Morris had been quiet but he's been running this massive comedy project for the last few years and we've all fallen for it.

Come on Chris, game over now. But it has been brilliant. My particular highlight was your impersonating the "Rovers fan" on the phone-in programme: "Two divorces, the Thatcher years..".

Chris you are a stone cold genius sir.

I think it was worth flagging up as Brexit may well affect Rovers' chances in the Champions' League in three seasons' time.

That's what I just can't understand. What exactly are we supposed to be jealous of? 

About the only thing they had over us was the quality of pie on offer and they don't even have that now.  

They would claim that they're a "family club", but given the frequency of violence at their games it does have a hollow ring to it.

The nub of it seems to be that they are a smaller and less successful club which means that they are liked more by fans of other clubs.

And this is true as smaller clubs are more popular with other fans: for example do you prefer Man Utd or Carlisle?

The logical conclusion to this, if being "liked" is so important to them, is to go back to being non-league.  If they were doing a Torquay and flirting with the Conference South then they would be very popular. You might even get a few City fans watching them as the rivalry would be non-existent at that point.

 Oi steady, got to be two.  I'm assuming that guy likes his own singing.

OK, I feel I'm in a minority here.

But I'm not about to watch it again in order to see if I change my mind.

He can carry a tune better than I can.

If he was wearing a red shirt and singing a song about Kodjia it would be all "well done mate".

Just because he's gas he's automatically some kind of chromosome-light inbred.

Well he isn't, he looks like half the football fans I know and can sing OK as well. He's singing a typical fans' song in a decent way.

I'm not turning into Ten Minutes of Rough but really gentlemen, do try saying what you see some times.

You have to feel for Accrington Stanley, their fans in the background of the sky sports updates looked a mixture of devastation, suicidal and shell shocked. You wouldn't want to put your mortgage on them making it up through the play offs (although I hope they do).

Yes I feel sorry for them but it's Wimbledon that I want to go up. The team started by the fans when their own club was uprooted and moved to Milton Keynes. The team that has climbed its way out of the non-league and could be playing and defeating the club, treated as a mere franchise by its owner, that once was theirs.

That's the double I want to see: MK Dons relegated to the third (tick) and AFC Wimbledon promoted to the third in the same season.

They may be in our shadow but they're "better" than us in every way as they keep telling us.

I don't know what this "better" actually means but they seem pretty convinced of it.  Like a tramp sat in a puddle of his own piddle, convinced that his life is "better" than that of the wage slaves hurrying to work.

Enjoy your last game today guys.

Hope Rovers do the business and we get a bit of luck in one of the other games.

Regardless of the banter and arguments, i hope this is the start of a good time.to be a football fan in Bristol, Red or Blue

Cheers Hello (now that doesn't sound right). I note that you're from the decent gas forum, gas guzzler, rather than the high moron-count one that is gas chat.

That's the only forum of which I have heard that bans people purely for supporting a rival team as they do; it's clearly too much for the sensitive souls on there to have to debate with somebody who doesn't regurgitate the accepted orthodoxy.  Most footie forums welcome fans of other teams as long as they behave because it makes the forum far more interesting.

I occasionally post (as a City fan, or 'sheed' as you would know it) on a QPR forum and sometimes even receive comments that I should post more often. Bit bloody different to the banjo twanging that echoes around gas chat!

The funding situation is definitely interesting. Steve Lansdown has spent £45m ish just on a ground redevelopment. Two new stands and and extension & refurbishment for a third. Take this figure and extrapolate it and you have the cost of a full size new stadium.  If Weal really doesn't have the money I think the options are either sell the Memorial Stadium and use the money to build a basic small ground at UWE or, as you say, stay where they are and just do a tidy up
