    What a stupid post.

    Weal has cleared our debts,is in the process of buying/brought land for our training ground and has been able keep our best ever manager and our best player which we have never been able to do before!

    From day one Weal has said about building our club from the ground up.If we started throwing money about like lansdown did at city in years gone by while we are still at the Mem we will be screwed.Fair play for lansdown for spending £50 million on a bristol club,but he did it before City were ready and had the foundations to support it eg: Ashton gates rebuild and it's the same with us at the Mem.

    As for us having a 'conference side' .... you sound like one of those moaners that go to the mem and would rather see a poor BRFC then any successful one,and now have a bee in your bonnet because we have had 2 and a half great years.

    These are the people that have to play the victim and would rather have dunceford and higgs still here as there was a clear enemy/ disease in our club at the time and can't get over, or accept that we are now progressive club and are no longer 'ragbag Rovers' - well not in the long term.

    DC has made a couple of mistakes in the loan system this season,but that "conference" side that also got promotion last season,and has us with a very good sniff of the playoffs with 20 games to go this term and that is ok by me.

    Just for the record, I think that if we were to go up this year then we would be more than likely to come back down straight away.But if clubs like Burton,Rotherham, wigan ,brentford  and to a lesser extent -  preston can survive in the championship in years gone by on the same crowds that we would get in the mem ...why not get up when we can?

     

     

    Can you two please get a room?

     

    ......or would that be too expensive?

    Got to be a bit annoying for you though hasn't it?

    Not so long ago you were gloating about being the 5th richest club in the world and looking forward to the arrival of Messi et al.  Now you're just happy with tents, canopies and sprinklers

    Never heard of any of those three players.......

    So if they declare higher attendances than they can fit in aren't they in breech of ground regulations for one, and also got to hand more £££ over to the tax man or whoever gets a cut? 

    The 11,000 figure was from 2012. They've added more seats since.......under canvas. The 11,200 figure was a few weeks ago.

    You've done it now rovers fans be all over this. Funny though i know 2 gas mates who been to the gate to watch the Newcastle and Brighton games.

    Which reminds me that i saw a minibus of gas on the bridge for the PO final v Brighton.

    Their atmosphere always was shit. They might wake up one day the losers.

    Any idea of who the driver was?
