Kid in the Riot Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Having seen the detailed drawings for the UWE bowl I would say it will be the stadium equivalent of a kit-car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somerset_Sam Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Why move to Darlington? Your moving out of Bristol so as far as I'm concerned you may as well be in Darlington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiale Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Stadium seems ok - crowd really close to the pitch / good views / facilities - not bad looking really. Transport links, well probably some of the best of any ground..... it's better than the current AG - and probably as good / close to what we will end up with in 3-4 years time.... so good luck to them. Just hope we get our stadium Av or AG sorted as well and have a decent stadium...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope we get our stadium Av or AG sorted as well and have a decent stadium...... Yep , fair play to them. When (if) it's built it will be something for them to be proud of , instead of their historical gypsy like existence. I prefer older type stadia personally , which is why I hope we can stay at AG and hold onto some of her more redeeming features. Those pictures you've posted are slightly misleading though , there are fans in them !!!

Opeth67 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Actually - two new football Stadia in Bristol will be good for the City as a whole. Bristol will cease to be a footballing backwater. The red team doing well in the Premier League and the blue one probably punching a bit over their weight but just about holding their own in the 2nd division.

Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I understand your directors were whooping with joy and dancing a merry little jig at the news that Rovers were having to relocate to Bath. Apparently delighted they would have the opportunity to secure all support from within Bristol. Rovers in Bath for how many years? all the advantages of your own stadium, exclusivity of support for all those years, a multi-millionaire chairman, yet you now have debts of £42 million+ and have just been relegated. Oh, and no new ground. Wow! Do you have proof that our board of directors were 'whooping with joy' at your move to Bath or are you just doing that thing that most Gasheads do...making stuff up inside your own peanut brain and then passing it off as fact. If you morons spent less time w*nk*ng yourselves stupid trying to make out you've scored some sort of victory against us because your plans have been accepted you wouldn't look like such sad ****s. Well done on the new stadium, I don't think it looks particularly original but that's my own personal opinion and I wouldn't swap it for the current AG, let alone a redeveloped AG. The vast majority of City fans really aren't bothered by you getting a new ground, some even wish you well so stop being so ******* needy all the time and concentrate on you're own club. Now ****off!

Given what the Gas got out of the deal, I find it hard to believe that the Rovers Directors weren't 'whooping for joy'. Towngas believing that Rovers moving to Bath sparked off party popper celebrations in the AG boardroom sounds typically ridiculous. Unlike Psycic Rovers fans, I don't know what will happen in the future but up until now you generally haven't been that much of a threat to us. Like I say, if you actually got behind your team and stopped concentrating on what we do then perhaps you could present some sort of challenge.

redfred Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Go on then, name those examples where they haven't paid what they legitimately should have (not including any contractual disputes etc that ANY company or individual might legally refuse to pay). I'm not suggesting you're wrong, as clearly you have insider info on certain things, it's just that I'm not aware of the club not fulfilling any obligations that they are legally obliged to do so (i.e. where they have defaulted or 'ripped-off' anyone) and I'd genuinely like to know if this has happened. If you're right then there should be no legal recourse on what you say on here as stating the truth is not libel or slander. You're nearly as boring as your new stadium's design.

Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 There's so much wrong with this post it's untrue and shows you know NOTHING of the history of the Mem sale. First off, the rugby club were in financial trouble about to sell the WHOLE site to Amtrak for the same price (£2.5m) as Rovers paid for HALF of the site (50% share). They wanted to turn it into a Distribution Centre. So Rovers, in fact, enabled the rugby club to retain half their ground and retain rugby at the Memorial Ground way beyond when they would have forced out under the Amtrak deal. Yet you say they have no morals and shafted the rugby club? Just out of interest Danny, you lot like to paint yourselves as heroes for saving the Rugby club and Memorial Ground from Amtrak and their proposed Distribution Centre, did Amtrak actually have planning permission in place to turn he Mem into a distribution centre or are you just hamming it up to make you look good?

The Amtrak deal / planning never got that far, but that was absolutely the intention of the Amtrak bid, which Bristol Rugby would have accepted without Rovers counter offer.

The Amtrak deal / planning never got that far, but that was absolutely the intention of the Amtrak bid, which Bristol Rugby would have accepted without Rovers counter offer. I just wondered because you and many other Gasheads say that the Rugby club would have been forced out had it not been for noble Rovers buying the Mem. The reality is that Amtrak (IF, they had gone ahead and tried to buy the Mem) still would of had the very large hurdle of getting planning permission for a distribution centre on the site. So the purchase and implementation of any plans was not a forgone conclusion. Besides, If Rovers hadnt paid more than Amtak, surely you would also have been made homeless? Rovers then went on to sell the Mem to Sainsburys who will obviously not be using it for sporting purposes which suggests BRFC are no better than Amtrak. Still, it's all done and dusted and no laws have been broken so fair enough. I just don't really see the diffrence between Amtrak all those years ago and BRFC today.
