The gift that is Bristol Rovers with their new "stand" and patchy pitch lighting ...

 

I like it !

Why does it seem that the smaller the attendance gets the longer it takes them to count it?

One guy does the odd numbers and another does the even ones.......the problem then is adding the two together

It’s not like proper football, is it?

He almost got it right…

Dreadful start. We look like a non-league outfit.

I’d be sick too having to play in that dump

Ok, I’ll do it…

Sold out Ashton Gate twice in 11 days with a 23k+ crowd in the middle.

Its like Sagheads enjoy looking stupid. 

 

That fact that we more than double their figure for every game hasn't registered yet

I'm not even mentioning the Rugby or the Girls

Someone might want to educate this one...

"The Teds have a much better ground, play in the championship... but guess what, they can't fill Trashton either."

"Match day experience of queuing for a 1970s throwback of catering and facilities in this weather or sat at home on ifollow. You can see where the attraction is for a lot of people."

Not even a brand new stand (with seats) can tempt them to attend

Like Noel Edmunds did with his Fake Taxi?

My wife loved going for a ride with Noel

If need be Rovers could ask people on the uncovered Pop Terrace if they would like to go into the South Stand.
It would show the club cares about fans in addition to helping to increase capacity.

This one is paranoid

Ted's are lapping this up! Screenshot of this post getting them excited!

That stand will be a great place to shelter from tonight’s weather 

It’s slowly sinking in

Only a reflection of the fan base (or lack of) more than anything else. Bemoan the state of the ground/lack of stands for years and years, we build something and then fail to even fill it.

Couldn't they just use dummies to fill 75% of the stand? It's not as if anyone would notice the difference.

With real dummies, the atmosphere might improve

Whatever we think of MK, their ground is so far ahead of the jumble sale collection of structures that passes for a football ground in North Bristol it is untrue.

The only similarity is that like Rovers, their stadium is too big for them

This is mind blowing !  Just when you think they’ve stopped doing anything hilariously s**t they go and outdo themselves again.  Incredible.  There cannot be another club in the country like them surely. 

There's not another club that wants to be like them

They've had to slash prices for tomorrow too in order to meet the 75% requirement for a test event...

I thought you were making it up just to make us all laugh 

Build it and they will come......apparently

"Still loads of tickets left for tomorrow night, reckon it’ll be one of the lowest home attendances of the season."

Ashton Gate needs expanding. It is too small. 

Has any team built a new stand recently due to an increase in their attendance?

We could do with a number to contact

£29 in the centre of the new stand , not sure if you pay more to be behind a pillar.
Half way line Terrace £26 and the Stand above is £36 

 

Is that season ticket prices?

Well known , only one I know is the hollie , Boatsy  or Stuart Broad the cricketer 

Mark Hoyle aka Lad Baby

Just 7452 Sags at home?

That new stand might be on Facebook Marketplace soon

Don’t they give out their attendance near the end of the game like all other clubs in the league?

Maybe their abacus isn’t working
