Fair play to em winning again today. Tight league can't afford any slip ups. 

Yep, if they secure back to back promotions then I'd have to say fair play, great achievement...as much as I've hated Dopey's antics over the last couple of years....but two consecutive promotions at any level is to be admired. Not that they've done it yet...

Had a city mate who went to the game today. Said Bolton were nothing short of appalling. A disgrace of a football team.

Funny thing is they've only lost 3 games more than you lot this season, so that tells it's own story.

Anyway, back to Rovers..

So, how did your 'invasion of Notts Co' go?! A few hundred wasn't it?! When are you gonna 'invade' your home games and perhaps get a 5 figure crowd?

Now, THIS is an invasion....

Did anyone expect us to win? 

As for the other lot, **** em? Wael has said how important a stadium is regardless of today's result. They've been backed by billions and achieved **** all except for bouncing between League 1 and the Championship, and are just making the most of the little time that they have left above us. They've mocked DC and he's turned out to be excellent and a breath of fresh air, they've mocked the way we've been ran, and now we're being ran well, they've mocked the way we have no money, and now we do. 

They're scared and they don't want to admit it.

Lest we forget......

Jesus - they are all coming out now.

Warnock is God.

The man is a *****, a ****, a complete ******.

He wouldn't be allowed into the ground by SL and rightly so.

And I couldn't give a toss what he does at any other club - he's a ballbag.

I know emotions run high after a defeat, but unless you know Warnock personally surely you can't justify abuse like that which needs so many asterisks??!!

Lost count of the number of times I said way way back that Warnock would keep us up on a short term deal until the end of the season....ridiculed every time....Millers have now won last three including Wednesday away and Boro at home...

And somewhere around 5k for the upcoming Fulham game I believe ?

But you have to hand to it them, they have much greater support than us (that 26k at Wembley for one of the biggest games in their history and under 3k for their last game at Eastville were just blips, as is the fact they've not come close to 10k average attendance for over 40 years), and they have billionaire owners don't you know (despite the owner himself saying that is a falsehood) that makes them the 6th "richest" club (whatever that means) in the country.

A very unique club (in the sense that they are much more deluded than any other football club).

You would think that supporters of a club that disgraced the city of Bristol by dropping into non-league football with the scenes after the final game being beamed around the nation would have some sense of humility. But no, that has been conveniently forgotten by them, but we all remember the hilarity of listening to Radio Bristol that wonderful day, and seeing them at various non-league venues including Braintree where they were trying to punch the keeper. 

A very unique club indeed - there are not many that are as much of a tinpot, two bit, chicken shit outfit like them.

 

 

 

Nice! I loved their hilarious attempt at a 'victim mentality' back in the late eighties and early nineties. "We have to train at a chocolate factory, we are ragbag Rovers...." etc etc etc....

And I am also afforded huge amusement by their belief that the whole country loves them and hates the 'massive' club in Bristol.

I have NEVER heard a City fan describe us as massive, not even when we were in the top div stuffing Man U, Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool etc.

"We are awesome fans cos we support the underdog..." Rubbish!

We plummeted to the basement after our brief sojourn at the top level....and we were the underdog then. But our support was superb...just superb. And we failed to beat the gas in ten league games from 1986 to 1991 - yet they clung onto their  'victim' status by the skin of their teeth!

Sorry, probably couldn't get over the fact that our hugely supported neighbours yet again failed to take less than us to a similar distanced game.

 

Nope. Just another game where we take 4 digits. How many times you done that this season?

About eight times I believe including away followings of 2,200+ on more than one occasion, 2,500+ , 3,300+ and 5,200+ - but you still believe you are a hugely supported club and your  self-branded 'invasion' of Notts Co was a little embarrassing to be honest.....

Eh?! If someone 'fails to take less' then they took more?

So we took more than you to a similar distanced game?

Oh, ok, so you want the title to be 'Bitter Bristol Rovers' - that would get my vote!

"no one remembering Rovers in a few years time" 

 

Well lets be honest I think everyone forgot they were playing last night judging by their attendance.

Exactly! Nearly 1,000 less than the messiah's first game in charge against the mighty Morecambe was it?!

And I'm loving the slow realisation amongst their paltry fanbase that the new owner ain't as rich as they thought! 

And with perfect comedy timing Lansdown is recently announced as being worth nearly two BILLION dollars!

I know there are drawbacks to being in a two club City, but there are comedic advantages too!!!

What was it Danny a baker said about Rovers?

Something about them being the only club in the league that no-one actually cares about and he was hysterical that they seemed to be sponsored by the snack van in the corner of the ground when they had 'Bradshaws Snack Box' on their shirts!

Wahey!

Have they realised their owner isn't as rich as they thought yet?

Nope, I'm still laffing at the clown who thought the family was richer than Bill Gates! 

They ain't even the richest club in Bristol, but they still quote on their forum: '...when we're the Man City of the south west...'

You just can't make it up!

Has it caught up with them yet that they are in the bottom division with 7,000 fans and have recently lost at home to the likes of Chesham, Stevenage, Newport, Accrington Stanley, etc!

Brighton have played us really, LJ was expecting a possession game from them and they've gone counter attack. Problem now is the more we push forward the more likely they are to score again. Tough job now.

Couldn't be there tonight due to work but is this true?!

Did we really think they'd play a possession game and then we were unable to adapt when that turned out to be incorrect?!

I was player manager of a local team for 12 years and we changed our tactics instantaneously if we'd obviously got it wrong from the  off.

Are you telling me that a professional football team didn't realise that they'd got it wrong and couldn't adapt?!

That is worrying...
