The gift…. Apparently we’re the deluded ones. Are we due yet another 'gas maths' lesson? Gas 27000 =42000 City 42000 =27000 It's clearly obvious to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke_bristol Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 Still talking about the Fruit Market and their new stand as if either is gonna happen. Maybe they should be a bit more realistic and speak to Shed Man about adding capacity to the Mem. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't surprise me if they had a builder lined up but it also wouldn't surprise me if same builder will be without staff until the new footy season whilst they go on holiday. I suppose the club will need some netting behind the south goal otherwise the players will be knocking on the neighbours doors asking for the ball back from their gardens. Could be a lot of added time in their home games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they cant build a stand maybe they would like to "go green" and plant a new hedgerow there - complete with these Edited July 16, 2023 by cityal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 I expect they've had a quote from one of their handy retired tradesmen who has a B & Q card because he can get an OAP discount on Tuesdays.That new stand will only take a week to put up. He's built the odd wall and can do the electrics and knows the difference between a left and right handed paint brush. It was he who dumped that left over championship ready tarmac at the ground. Bob the gateman recommended him. Cash only. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 Finally being flagged that they’re gonna be well over budget this season…..why do they think after 4 pretty high profile (expensive) signings that everything has totally dried up? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no point in doing that, they don't want to. The conversations I've had with sags tends to be "Holloway's coming back" or "it was great at Eastville, but can't remember the last time I went to a match", " I used to enjoy the derbies", " Geoff Bradford, he was a fantastic player" "that F A Cup run in the 50's what a team". They don't seem to like it when they're brought back to reality when I tell them skeletor's not coming back, you got kicked out of Eastville as tenants years ago, you've played at two other grounds since. We haven't played you in a derby for years and because of the ever widening gap there's no point. You're lamenting about someone who played for you over fifty years ago. That F A Cup run was approximately 70 years ago. When it finally dawns on them that rovers are 5hit, I like to apply the coup de grace with a bit of history that Hitler saved the sags from re election in 1939. That tends to finish them off nicely. 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is, about 450 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high or about 135 meters long, 23 meters wide and 14 meters high and he did that in seven days. Rovers; a precedent has been set!

Contestants have to scramble up the dirt pile, slalom through the scaffolding poles, and hop over the JCB bucket; Then it is on to the tented section, once through there they will splash through the pond of fake fanta before the final, terrifying, leap over "Sanata's groto". 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open End Numb Legs Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 Interesting photo update, somehow not surprising. Do we need one of those web based countdown timers? 2 in fact, one for the 1st game ko and the other for when the stand will be built because clearly the 2 moments will be months apart.

Ska Junkie Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 This stand is certainly gonna be the cause of much mirth on here. 'Like the Atyeo' wasn't it? Bear in mind our South stand took a year to build and they've got a fortnight. For some reason, I suspect it's going to be 5hite, can't think why. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
