Bristol R*vers dustbin thread

[reddogkev]

No, surely not, has he gone stark raving mad???

[Swede]

Has he fallen out with LJ then?

Be interesting to see how the sags squirm and ignore his City history.

Having just drained a rather nice bottle of Pinot Gris, I believe that if we can procure the services of Mr Johnson Clarke -Harris ,next season we will be Bristols Premier football club .

Warning to our Red Friends south of the river.
Please do not be alarmed by the imminent reversal of disparity, life will go on for you once you have transitioned your way through the seven stages of grief.

 

I'm absolutely shitting myself....NOT!

Sounds like this specimen has found a half full bottle whilst rummaging in his favourite bin and trundled along to his favourite park bench to consume it. Obviously too much alcohol for such a wet brain to cope with.

Looks like people on the up who leave our club go to Bournemouth people on the down go to the gas 

 

be nice to play them in the cup  ! Are you city in disguise ! Don’t think they would like that little song

Can anyone help with debate I had over Christmas about the gash , when was it City cut padlocks night before the rovers City game to get into Tote end , this was the end of them as a mob 

Jan '81, most of us had tickets for the Tote anyway

[petehinton]

What was the quote that LJ said about Reuben going to Hibs for a large fee, as it was a better pathway to first team football for him?

Ah….

[petehinton]

What a career decision by them to move Reuben out of the club that was.

There’s a lot of this in the comments section about Jamie Mac joining them.

Possibly fuelled by the idiot who reports on them claiming “something special” is happening. 

Drawing at home to Cheltenham, then well beaten at Blackpool, that really is special.

Seem not to have noticed either that we are currently just outside the playoff places so at the very worst we are going to be a Championship club again in 24/25. Strange definition therefore of becoming Bristol’s premier club.

Stupid lot, aren’t they?

He might need to speak to the makers of Monopoly about that. There is a queue for that position and it starts at Bristol Manor Farm doesn't it?

Didn’t follow him to Fleetwood, Darren Way joined LJ as assistant.

Bloke needs to work but having played for us, been a coach for several years & lived this way for a long time I reckon it will seem odd at first.

Who?

The Post are suggesting that he turned down the assistants job at Fleetwood. 

Maybe had enough of following LJ around or maybe the thought of Fleetwood turned him off.

Best of luck to him.

Maybe he can get his son back down to Bristol..

Which is why Macca is unlikely to be made welcome at the RHPC anytime soon.

Quite agree. Did the kid stay at Hibs?

[Kid in the Riot]

Bristol City, Sunderland, Hibernian.

And now this...

We can sing 'you're just a sh1t Bristol City' and be correct.

January will see significant squad strengthening at Rovers.

Alf junior has already contacted Tottenham Hotspur to ask “ how much is Udogie in the window ?”

Makes you wonder what they usually serve up in Irene's, given they appear to have most football-food groups fairly well covered off.

Yes, hardly even featuring for their 21s these days. 

[Wanderingred]

I have no idea where their laughably blind optimism is coming from. It’s not as if they are even on a particularly good run. They’re so weird.

I was there, they ran for their lifes, only coming back for a pop at City when they had police protection.

TBF, they've not had a lot to get them going, so a couple of wins is brilliant for them.

Bless.

This century they've had 12 seasons in the third tier, 11 in the 4th tier, and 1 in the 5th tier.

In that time, their highest finish is 10th in the third tier.

Their average attendances have ranged from an abysmal 5,480 (a promotion year), to a remarkable 9,302 (the year they finished 10th and thought they were a shoe in for the Championship but ****** it up at the death).

Nothing club really.
