County have recently started doing a few very cheap games in order to entice new fans (pay what you want, 5 quid for adults etc). Its about the only way they can keep crowds up. 

That being said, they are still a well supported, big club and so have enough of a pull, even when they're in the conference. 

Rovers on the other hand would be finished if we went up, unlike County they have nothing going for them and with their ground and league position, that isn't going to change

Notts County have been top flight more recently than us!  They gave Juventus their first kits when they started out hence why Juve play in Black and White!

Knowing that lot they’d find some way of either hyping up some meagre achievement of theirs to our promotion or jumping on the ‘it’s great for football in our city’ angle. 
 

Example A) their bragging that they won promotion at Wembley and were the first team from Bristol to do so, conveniently forgetting we’d just steamrollered L1 that same season…

Example B) the infamous promotion bus tour that followed….

C. They'll lord it if and when we were relegated while they fester in L1 or 2.

My wife tells people I took her up The Shard for her birthday last year, much to their amusement.

Is that a double entendre Numb Legs? ?

He’s really dying on that GK hill. Bellshaw was apparently one of the best keeper outside of the prem last year for him, now being thrown under the bus before games he’s not even in the squad for!

Belshaw has thrown a wobbler and been dropped from the squad.

Trouble in camp?

Plus their ageing demographic.

I'm actually watching a bit of their game on IPTV as my Mrs is at work.

Ipswich are so, so slow, nowhere near Championship standard. The gash are just awful.

it's lots of long ball football from both.

Dreadful standard and dreadful game. Aluko just had a shot and it went for a throw in, it's that bad.

What contract Clause?

Joey, master negotiator that he is, only got the new GK in on the proviso that the new GK played the first three games he was available for. Not some kind of Ryan Kent overall playing time thing, but specifically the first three games.

They’ve lost all three - conceding 8 goals. Belshaw could now play without breaching the loanees contract and he’s probably not best pleased that he isn’t!
