Sixtyseconds Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Amusing idea... terrible place to put it... clueless idiot who put it there has ruined a good prank for u lot The thought of Mr Clueless in blue and white walking past for weeks without noticing is funny. Doubt if any damage was done. Not like anybody has punched a pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Strange that it wasn't spotted when there were several hundred people at the Open Day last Sunday then? I'd imagine if done weeks ago it was taken down shortly after. Not that I'm saying it's acceptable at any point.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamite Red Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Apparently it was removed by the prankster immediately after the photo was taken, there was no lasting damage but for me it is a poor taste in humor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtyseconds Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 So are u saying its ok to deface a war memorial at certain times? Unbelievable! Probably shouldn't tell you this not now when you are running to the ladder to reach the moral high ground. But the MEMORIAL GROUND was to be replaced by a supermarket.

BS3 GAS Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 But Letting a supermarket potentially be built at the memorial is ok? The memorial will remain intact.... dont try and excuse this thick idiot nice try. .. not the first time some mindless idiot has done this type of thing... you just carry on making excuses ...shame that a good bit of humour was let down by some thick numbskull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I misunderstood and thought that Cowshed meant that it had been in place for several weeks! Very funny idea, but not the best place to take the photo. Would have looked great on the door of Santa's Grotto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very funny idea, but not the best place to take the photo. Would have looked great on the door of Santa's Grotto. It may have been in place for weeks. If any damage was done the papers would have been all over it. Its ironic that the view for ever through the Memorial Grounds gates may have been the metre high orange letters of yet another Sainsburys.

PHILINFRANCE Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I think its time you jogged on..why not join you're inbred friends on there forum.you are becoming irritating. .. Only my opinion, but I don't think your comment is called for and, indeed, is somewhat embarrassing. I found the 'plaque' amusing, but remain unconvinced that it should have been placed on the memorial gates and most certainly the photo should not have been released today of all days. Again, only my opinion, but I consider both nailseacookie and his sidekick, In the Net, to be amongst the most reasonable, fair-minded and (sometimes) amusing posters on this forum, and certainly less offensive than many others.

WTMS Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 The plaque, is mentioned elsewhere before WTFiGO's idea. Pictures which appeared state 23/7/14. The plaque on the pictures is positioned to one side and nearly indistinguishable, there is no obvious intent to offend, and no lettering has been obscured. It is clear given the timescale no damage and vandalism has taken place. v Bristol Rovers and Sainsburys wanting to dwarf the memorial gates with a Supermarket.

timothy bird Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 The whole ground is a memorial ( The clue is in the name of the ground ) That's the memorial that higgs said he didn't care what sainsburys did with !

Avalonred Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 You'd think somebody had drilled a couple of holes, banged in a couple of rawl plugs and then mounted a proper plate up! Yes, it was in bad taste but the reaction is so over the top IMO. I made a donation when the idiots defaced the gates a couple of years ago, that was deplorable! but this was just a picture..... they didn't bulldoze the whole site 'a la Sainsburys', the GROUND is the memorial, the gates are just a focal point! Slap on the wrist and deep embarrassment for the perpetrators is a good enough punishment I'd say. Some soppy Sag BBB on the above link/thread wants an apology from Bristol Sport with his comment 'don't hold your breath', as if!

Not the one who posts on here is it?http://www.gasheads.org/thread/780/scum Reading that you know they want to believe a scaffold was erected and City fans went at the Memorial gates with the worlds largest masonry drill. Its the helplessness that gets them most and then the sense of they can't do it. All that rage over what people are saying was a bit of cardboard that has not left a mark.
