CotswoldRed Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Let them enjoy it. While I'd have preferred it if they'd stayed down, they'd made it and deservedly so. My father is a gashead so I'm pleased that this week, for him, will be a better one than last week, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CotswoldRed Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Sure, get the right group of players together and you can really go places without money - it happens. Along the way, though, you still need infrastructure and fans in numbers. Until they move from the Mem I suspect they have found their ceiling.

reddogkev Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Will there ever be another Bristol league derby? They can tease us by climbing one division closer, but alas, the days when we can play and beat them in the league are still someway in the future.

This is how the "rivalry," such as it is, goes now: Rovers: "Windass" City: "Daniel." Rovers: "WINDASS!" City: "Daniel." Rovers: "WINDASS!!" City: "Daniel." Rovers: "We're coming for you." City: "We're off to Villa Park." Rovers: "Windass." City: "Daniel." It's not a rivalry on the pitch, only a trading off hurts inflicted by other teams, by other teams players (Windass thwarting our Prem dream; Daniel realising their non-league nightmare). It used to be "Lambert" or "Penrice" now it is only "Windass." That's all they've got, the best Rovers can offer, that and promises of this and that to come. When did Rovers last sting us on the pitch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems their whole lives would revolve around it. I won't be interested in Rovers unless we play them, apart from that Rovers are not worth my breath. I've just wasted my life writing this.

One BCFC Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Acting like big boys now they just about claimed 3rd spot auto in L2. About time they actually proved to people that they are this big club that they claim to be and a championship club in waiting. Well we are still waiting it has been 15 years.

TwoSheds Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 So they just scraped home with an injury time winner against an already relegated team from the Basement league. Finished just above the Mighty Accrington Stanley on goal difference. Are they going to have an open top bus tour like last years embarrasment! Chanting are you watching Ashton Gate (What are we meant to be watching) Just show them this http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/soccer?iso=20001028T1645&p0=299&msg=City+above+Rovers&font=cursive Tick tock tick tock.

They'll struggle to attract better players because of the Mickey Mouse stadium and cabbage patch pitch and of course because it's Bristol. That said they have serious financial backing now and the new stadium is an inevitably - just a question of when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashton_fan Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 My wife and I were in the Shakespeare (by the harbour) on our way back from AG on Saturday when the Rovers result came through, Rovers 'fans' were singing goodnight Irene etc.. It struck me that they were like most of the Rovers 'fans' I know, they don't go to the matches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
