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?

They are literally tinpot. The fact they have announced a new stand (of sorts) with no drawings, planning permission or even a decision on what it is, says all you need to know about the announcement. They haven't even completed surveys to check if they can actually do anything at all! They have just thrown the dogs a bone to cheer them up with this. Nobody with any integrity or common sense would announce anything at all until it was at least agreed what you were planning to build and what it was to look like, and indeed whether you could actually build it at all! The vagueness of the information combined with completely unrealistic timescales of the start of next season is mind boggling from a CEO!

He's just a man who knows his audience. Much like when Wally announced three years ago that they'd be in a new stadium at the fruit market within a couple of years, he knows that it'll keep the 15ers happy and he won't be held accountable in any way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedLionLad Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 A mate of mine (sadly a Gashead) has informed me that a group of wives (all Gasheads) are going to Ashton Gate tomorrow for the England Womens game. They have tickets for the Lansdown Stand and have never been to the Gate before. There must be quite a few others going too. Wouldn’t it be good to see their faces and listen to their reactions as they enter the concourse. What do you think their first comments would be? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the ideal venue for Rovers, but a ground that can easily accommodate their "enormous" following. Mind you, it would take the Blue Few a bit of time to get used to such luxury.

Not necessarily this group but you can almost guarantee one of the Blue Few will go to this and think they're clever by wearing some sort of Rovers clobber and feel the need to post it all over social media as if it's some sort of achievement. Just like when a few went down for their Covid jabs and wore their clown outfits!

Bristol Rob Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Another inbred writes... "Wael will now surely realise BCC and all their cohorts are anti BRFC. I just hope Wael does not throw in the towel and move on from dealing with this toxic protest central city." I assume he means Bristol City Council who - to the best of my knowledge - have never turned down any planning application for a new stadium from either football club, or maybe he means the Bristol City Council who don't own or have any commercial interest in the site they were hoping to get this new stadium built and therefore aren't remotely responsible for the sell, development or funding for this venture. Obviously, there are loads of really good reasons why people who work for the council might be 'anti BRFC' but those are probably mostly due to the fact that they are the bestest, most loyal (and true - whatever that means) fans in the world and that they are the world's best at being a favourite 'second club' - and that they have billions locked out every week.
