TheReds Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Is @Miah Dennehy ok? He seems to have gone missing lately. I'm sure a couple of months ago I read multiple times how great the football was under St Joey, and some of the most entertaining stuff he's ever witnessed. TBF I am finding it quite entertaining at the moment myself, so keep up the good work Joey. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They keep passing , creating chances , then keep losing. I think we could all be happy , maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open End Numb Legs Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I didn't realise how bad JBs history is until I just checked wiki. He would surely be unemployable at a school or college with his history so how does he fit in at a football club? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably has to be escorted if and when he's anywhere near the Academy..........taking the piss slightly but it's not as far fetched as it seems when you think their Academy Coaches will have to undergo a full DBS disclosure. It would be interesting to see if they would appoint a Youth Coach with his "record". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This report states that they have yet to have a structure designed, modelled, costed and agreed.

glynriley Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Imagine being a supporter of a football club, picking up your local newspaper and the first line of the report says… ”Bristol Rovers hope to make the Mem tent-free” Oh I wish it could be Christmas everyday… 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReds Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Are they looking for land or another Stadium grab?? They want to find one, not build one? "Gorringe insists the club's priority is finding a new stadium" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open End Numb Legs Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I keep writing serious comments on this thread and then deleting them as the comedy value is so high. Let's take the point above about health and safety. If they have test events they will need a full crowd to make that work. How are they going to fill the ground? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myol'man Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I think they'll end building a stadium on the training ground site at Almondsbury (which they stole.....allegedly) So South Glos Rovers it will be then.

I have heard they will stick to the same contractor who provided them with so much experience with their previous big top experience who can turn his hand to anything at the Horfield Circus...
