1960maaan

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!

Fair play to Korey, taking the simulation so far , he pretends to get carried off !

To be fair, I was impressed by SHeff U. Brilliant movement and real threats. I would like to say that though, if you hit the post , your shot is off target ! So that makes it 3 poor efforts and one good save.

Just been sent this and didn’t know what to do with it, so I’ll leave it here.

.Alan Dicks took us up, and then down, into Division One and back out. Cheery Daryl Clark can take the gAss out of and into L2 from both directions.

and hitting EVERY branch on the way down !!

Plus , their savour Wael , is just a stooge. He gets to enjoy the adulation of gullible gAss , while having no real power over the money (6th richest club init ). I would like to know how they have spent £12m SINCE the take over. If they count Dwayne Sports purchase of the train ground, could they include anything that the family has bought in the time since the takeover? They may as well as the club wouldn't own that either.

Right, couldn't listen to GT and not read every relevant post so can someone put me right here. 1) They (the family) have a charge against the stadium to protect their interest. 2) They have interest building , but only being added to the loan If this is right, won't they get to a point where the charge and interest becomes larger than the assets of the club and so makes it unfeasible to carry on, specially in the eyes of a Banker. Edit:The original post was 'posted' too early sorry

To be fair, the state the club is in (even if they don't admit it publicly ), losing run and they're shit. That's not bad. Of course they haven't played there for about 25 years, that's bound to boost the following. And don't forget, from their time in Div 4, from this position they were always saying that it was a promotion push

Of the 2 photos, there’s no excuse or explanation for the FW one, the Auschwitz one I hope was a misplaced show of compassion. Stupid and tacky but you can but hope. People are weird, when I went to New York we went to the 9/11 memorial and there were people taking smiley selfies in front of it.

It's pity , the word you're looking for is pity.

Just watched the football focus clip , FFS. Wael really love the limelight doesn't he. Parading around the pitch, shoulder rides down Glouc's road. Plus that little teasing answer to Garth Crooks 'you could have bought any club in the Prem' sneaky little smile and says , not any. Now people would have read that as, maybe not a top side in the Prem, what he meant was literally not ANY club in the Prem ! That is such lazy journalism , not to do the slightest background check, you expect it from the Fawning EP , but really.
