Yep, I think extending the Law department was mentioned too. I'm sure I read originally that they were thinking of a small multi purpose stadium, would be funny if they did it on their own.

I'm guessing there little point in the UWE doing anything to prolong the planning , didn't they originally have plans for a small 6k venue? I honestly don't know how the gAss would have carried on if 1) they didn't own the stadium. 2) They had to pay rent. 3) They would not have much in the way of off field profits coming in. The UWE can now do as they wish , smaller athletics/ multi purpose stadium. While the gAss lower house prices in Horefield

I have a mate, good bloke but of late he's been spouting the party line. I'm going to have to block him on social media !! This sort of thing really does wined me up, I know it shouldn't but it's the hypocrisy and stupidity. He would have paid tens of millions in tax building his fortune. He's spent millions in the local area etc etc. That's one thing but do they not realise their club is owned by an offshore company FFS ?? They spout shite about spending millions on a stadium and in the next breath say we should have done the UWE and if not when do we upgrade the Mem . Hypocrites every moronic one of them.

Everything over there is retarded.

That's a bare face lie , and libellous comment , one of the fires was an accident

Looking at that thread, poignant and cutting words ...

All joking aside (for a minute). Can anyone remember where the '6th richest club in England " came from? Someone must have said that to start the rumour, was it the BEP ? along with Billionaire and £15k watch. Or was it just some knob on a video spotting shite while someone filmed him . Be interesting to know, as it only took 5 minutes and Google to learn otherwise, bit much for the Post to be expected to check facts though.

As much as I would love to say the the tweet below is true, a mate who is a gAsshead said he sat very near the away fans and it won't. He is not your usual bullshitter , so I tend to believe him. Won't stop me posting it elsewhere though.

Best day in their history, doesn't involve their team (our playoff defeat) Club legend never played for the club (Winass) And the thing that made some gAssheads year was us losing a normal League game , and nothing his club did in the previous 364 days. They are a pitiful , sad and deluded bunch.

I would hope that a signing or two would be announced tomorrow. We have known about the injuries and fatigue for weeks , lets hope they have been working hard to add some bodies. I have been waiting, pretty much expecting this defeat since the Forest game (maybe not the scale). I think the whole team has been amazing to keep the run going week on week, but we need new faces and soon. Once we reach the end of January we could have 6 more players to choose from (new and returning) that could really help a Playoff push. I don't think we can afford to wait though.

Thanks for the link @SirColinOfMansfield but I can't stand more than a couple of minutes on there at any one time. The Hypocrisy and delusion is unbelievable. An example.... "Better cancel their obsessed with Rovers thread now." This on a thread that is at 20 pages in 10 days . All they have to laugh about is us losing to the best side in the Championship Oh , and apparently our bubble will burst and away following will drop massively. They could be right with the 2nd bit, only 5,500 sold so far forMan City and members can't buy until tomorrow.

Even if we were talking about the most deluded fans in the world......... oh, wait , we are. If someone said WE would be getting 50k if we were top 4 in the Prem the laughter from the rest of OTIB would be heard from space, but them

They did have nice flower beds, and a lot more dogs lived at their ground/kennel . Actually Saying their ground, the Greyhounds were actually the Landlords and the gAss rented/squatted/dossed there.

I was surprised at that. Wonder how long they were searching for something they came out top in ? As @richwwtk said, go back a little to the North/South split and attendances go up.

Is anyone on their website? I'm sure I saw a Red posting on there some time ago. I would love this to be explained. I Don't give a flying **** about your plastic team, we are the only real community football club in Bristol How is our team plastic? Owned by a Bristolian where as ....... Same ground in Bristol for about 113 years , where as ....... and as far as I know , actually paying wages above minimum , where as ..... Just because they are run like a pub side , I think I'm right in saying they have rented or squatted for all but 20 years since the start of the 2nd world war, doesn't mean they are more 'community, club than us. They just seem to try and grab an insult and use it, whether it fits or not.

Yep , interesting use of stats. Technically @Ska Junkie that is Div 3 South so to prove a point they'll ignore those. Also putting in their highest average is 13,026 is funny as , although it might be true, they haven't averaged 10,000+ for 40 years and only 4 times in the last 50 have they managed above 10k in L1 add 2nd tier and that goes up another 2. I think 15k ground will be plenty for them, all they need is a rich benefactor to fund it all.

I'm guessing the guy talking was a gAss head, so it's his team and he doesn't want to say to much. If roles were reversed I'd feel the same...... to a point. Clubs still do this , any club going into admin would probably owe companies money. What is more unusual is a (fairly) new owner and Billionaire are seemingly steaming headlong into administration. He could sell his watch I guess.

Is this your wish to live into your (several) hundreds????

A Tillion ??

I remember lads holding it up after it was cut, made it look like it was still in place

I got a bit carried away typing too quickly, bit like you thinking 1970 was after 1982

Well spotted , we'll teach him to park the Bus !!

Would be interesting to see the comparisons between us , since '82 and them since they joined the League the first time. When was that? 1920? They've won....... (thanks Wiki) in 98 (broken) years in the league Football League Third Division South: 1.....1952–53 Football League Third Division: 1 ...............1989–90 Football League Two play-offs: 1 ................2007 Conference Premier play-offs: 1 ...................2015 this is still non league to me ! Football League Trophy, Runners-up : 21989–90, 2006–07 That doesn't really count but we'll give them 2 2nd places. While since 1982.... Third Division South (Football League One) Champions: .......... 2014–2015 Third Division (Football League One) ..... Runners-up: 1989–90, 1997–98, 2006–07 League Cup Semi-finalists: 2017 - 2018, 1988–89 Football League Trophy Champions: 1985–86, 2002–03, 2014–15, Runners-up: 1986–87, 1999–00 If I were them , I'd just give up.

There have been a few threads on this. I loved going to Eastville, massive open end held about 6k of us I believe. As for away days , Cov (obvs) , but Chester was one of the best ways to clinch promotion and one of my favs. Swansea 5-0 , Liverpool , Leicester (Jacki) , Forest semifinal , the 4-0 at Brum and on and on.

This may be true, but the only time I've been there I was with 5,000 others, so the atmosphere was OK. Plus , although we did stand the whole game , at my age I appreciate the availability of a comfy seat now and then #ooo,paddedseats,nice!
