Did I here their summeriser say 3k on their big day out was their biggest away following for over twenty years. That can't be right surely. There must be thousands locked out.

Didn`t they take about a million to Chelsea in the Wally derby a couple of years ago?

Oh wait, they didn`t sell out their allocation............................

Didn't they have more than that when we last beat them in the paint pot?

It's not like they exaggerate their support after all.

Strange - according to that tool GasGoMarchingIn on the Man City forum after we took 8k to the Etihad they should have been allocated the whole of Stamford Bridge, such was the demand for tickets. ?

well done derby !

Big day out for them, playing games in grounds that don’t have canvas tents.

Another penalty, but a hammering.

2 points from their last 9 for the bloke who likes to tell other managers how to do it

A Gashead posting on Man City’s forum?

I don’t remember that mate…

Oh wait, wasn’t that one of those threads where some opposition fans were very complimentary about our away support?

Ouch..! 

The truth is, that simple, precise, politely put response, probably cuts them deeper than anything else could have done! 

Well played that man..!

They just can't help themselves can they?

I had to laugh on the way home listening to Radio Bristol before the sags big day out, they interviewed a couple, one with blue hair (FFS) and when asked what in their opinion has lead to the upturn in form, blue hair replied blankly, I don't know. The other was asked a score prediction and he was easily expecting a win despite their being two leagues between the clubs last season or the fact that their opponents are one of the biggest clubs in that league. Hilarious. Especially when that fourth goal went in.

That was a blue rinse?

Hope they lose 8-0 and are stuck in traffic for hours. Then go bust . Shithouses 

You may have enjoyed being around Southey Park yesterday morning . Our double decker coach left there at 9, Just under an hour later , we had travelled around 100 yards the coach got jammed in a side street. A couple of us did think may be a sign of a bad day ahead!

The driver must have thought "park the bus" was on Joey's tactics board .

Maybe if we had we wouldn't have got such a hiding!

Good to hear you admit that, I listened to the last 20 minutes of the game on my way home from relatives, and you would think you were winning 4-2 from the way the commentators were talking you up.

I think the way we play will mean that we get a few hidings. I thought the game against Wednesday could easily have panned out the same way had they taken early chances, as it happened I was thinking we would pinch it near the end. That was never the case yesterday, poor defending meant the game was effectively over in the first half, although we were much better in the second half and had Sinclair's half chance gone in, well you really never do know with Rovers at the moment.

A few of us were chatting on the coach on the way up and to a man we agreed we would rather see Rovers trying to play they do and accept that now and then we will get caught out , and believe me, at 3-0 down it looked like we were on for a VERY heavy defeat, than seeing us parking the bus and trying to grind out some kind of result.

I won't get drawn into any kind of debate about Joey Barton as a man, but I think he is a very astute coach and , when given the right players, really can work wonders with a team. It is actually enjoyable watching us play at the moment.

Well, you saw and as I expected the Swansea fans were allowed out at the same time as us and what a stupid thing that turned out to be.

The Swansea fans had not moved at all by the time I’d descended to the concourse so they never left the same time as we did
