Will be interesting to see how their massive 'loyal and true' away support compares to ours. As you know, we list our away attendances on our official site for all matches and for each season. As the management at Rovers are as guilty as the fans for peddling the myth that they travel everywhere in huge numbers, I imagine the information you seek will be easily found on the Gas OS. I’m sure they wouldn’t hide those figures away. I’ll be interested to see how many thousands they took to places like Gillingham and Bury especially as I’m constantly told that their travelling army puts our efforts to shame.

According to GasLogic the latest one is to take our home attendances (to suit Sags let's just say it's 26,000) and then look at the 1400 we take away, then compare that to Rovers 8000 at home and 800 away. Therefore, the percentage of how many Gasheads go away in relation to their home support is markedly better than City's meaning that City fans are fickle and just like to attend home games whilst loads of Sags go to away games which make them more faithful and true and therefore a better club.

Gazred Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 I'd be sick of us this season if i was one of them. On TV everyweek, plaudits coming in from all over the football world for the way we play, taking the game to the best the Prem has to offer, multi million £ players coming in, great stadium etc, etc etc. It's enough to make you want to hate us, then start making shit up or apply Gas logic to make yourself feel better about the ****ing huge GAP that is widening season after season. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are. I bumped into the gAsshole in work this morning. He said he was so happy when he woke up on Wednesday morning that we were finally out of the cup and he didn't have to keep hearing about us "every five ******* minutes" I reminded him our next 2 away fixtures are live on Sky... 1 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably don't realise they are owned by Jordanians, surely the Barcelona of League 2 being traded would have been global news at the time. At least, until they took their place in 'tier 5' of the pyramid. (Honestly - some of them have been calling it tier 5 rather than non-league or conference).

TV Tom Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 I was chatting with a 21 year old relative last night and he doesn’t understand the rivalry and dislike that his elderly relatives have for Rovers, his generation are 98% City fans and he doesn’t have a single mate who watches Rovers on a regular basis, he says the rivalry for his age group isn’t there and that they are a total irrelevant, how things have changed since I was his age!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, he won't ever have to suffer at the mouths of gas heads, should they do the unusual and finish above, or beat us, as some of us older supporters have had to endure. As we know, they still try to proclaim themselves as the oldest, best, better supported club in Bristol, when all the facts, that's "all the facts" prove otherwise. Their biggest successes are actually our failures and celebrated as such. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of older sags like to bang on about that 50s team being the best ever in Bristol, totally ignoring our spells in the top flight of course. #gaslogic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
