ExiledAjax Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 4 hours ago, cityal said: What was this "something" that the reporter saw? Here is what I see: A mid table side averaging 1.41 ppg so far this season have slightly improved in the last 8 games to 1.5 ppg. Based on thier current "iconic" form of 1.5 ppg they are ahead of Lincoln City, and Oxford Utd in the form table and level with Blackpool, but BEHIND every other team in the top ten of league one and Northampton just below them. So based on the current form ppg, games left and total points acrued so far: Bristol Rovers would STILL lose further ground to Portsmouth, Peterborough, Bolton, Derby, Stevenage, Barnsley and Northampton. Bristol Rovers would make up ground on Lincoln City (gaining 8.88 pts) passing them, stay level pegging with Blackpool points difference wise, and make up a small amount of ground on Oxford United (gaining 2.88 pts). Their form has to be a lot better consistently to push for playoffs, the 12 point gap to make up is quite big conisdering the teams aorund them are likely decent. While you cannot rule it out you would not be gambling on this with any confidence. Also their GD needs to improve as if that was a decider they are a long way off the teams genuinely in playoff contenton in league one. Excellent work.

JBFC II Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 Not sure how accurate this is, but if it's true what a poor indictment of them. Top 7 wages to be 10 points off 7th, pitiful stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thanks we have nothing to gain from beating them if we do beat them we’re supposed to beat them because we’re bigger and spend more money and god forbid we lose you’ll never hear the end of it! I’d rather they went bust and we never have to hear about them again. The fact that there children and and grandchildren would likely become City fans would give me more satisfaction than any league victory! 8 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100%, the 1980’s were a horrendous time with many bad memories of our many defeats against them, I never want to see us play against them again during whatever time I have left on this earth, we’d be in a lose-lose situation every time. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well for starters there are only five stages of grief not seven. And second, if the numpty thinks building a tin shack at one end of the circus marks the start of a "reversal of disparity" i think it was something a lot stronger than a bottle of Pinot they were on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
