Give it a rest mate! Of course they probably have. And at every other ground in the country. However it is your fans that keep getting done for it. Your fans that put disgusting radial abuse aimed at your own players on Facebook. Your club that are a laughing stock over the slum of a ground. Your club that has egg on their face from all the "claims" & gloating over Wally's take over. What happens at other clubs does not deflect from the utter joke of a soap opera that is Bristol Rovers FC. 15 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really interested to see what deluded response comes back from such a simplistic "Why?" question? ....is it just me, or did we avoid relegation by only three points last season, not five?!

This ground improvement malarkey is easy I quoted them £1500 for that, they must have got someone cheaper. It always pays to get three quotes, and don't always go for the cheapest, as you might get a crap job. Evidently they have some really tall carers.

I don't think it's fair to compare the two structures. Santa's Grotto was a prefabricated building, (former ticket booth) and the all weather disabled area, is an architect designed bespoke structure. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that for those of a certain generation racist comments were considered quite acceptable - hopefully we are getting closer to having a generation which advocates zero tolerance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of things used to be acceptable, or they way things were, until the world progressed & moved on. Racist chanting. Standing in the rain on uncovered terraces. Eating from not fit for purpose catering outlets. Setting transfer records 20 years ago.

Yeah but their ground "redevelopment" has cost less than 1% of a Tilson compared to our tens of millions.
