What your nan didn't tell you is that the correct procedure is to scrunch up each sheet and then flatten it before using it. That way it works similarly to soft toilet paper.

Open End Numb Legs Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Last time I looked at Gaschat there was a very popular theme there about comparing themselves to teams such as Luton and Brentford in terms of what could be achieved. Those fantasies are easy to digest because they see that as an possible way to the PL without spending hundreds of millions. The reality of course is that those teams do have some good players that cost 10s of £millions which they will never be able to afford or, if they struck gold with an academy product they would have to sell - as have we.

Really strange how the lovely local mayor is associating himself with a building that was built largely without planning permission. Doesn't say anything positive about the local planning rules.

I'm sure it's a typo (right!) but the Bristol Live write-up currently states the following:- Given their backgrounds in real estate, the Kuwaitis always saw the infrastructural possibilities of the Gas as a major driver that led them to eventually invest significantly but for them, it's now just about fast-tracking Rovers up the divisions recklessly, it's about ensuring that the foundations are laid for the club to stay where they are if they're promoted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boring Sag Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Truly curious what a lot of you think. Martin has now scored 15 in 20 starts (25 games played), a goal every 120 minutes. Meanwhile Clarke-Harris has only 6 goals in 14 starts (24 games played for Peterborough). Do people think that Rovers' huge oopsie moment at the end of the August window might have ended up being very favourable (Martin outperforming JCH and signing for free, wouldn't have happened if JCH had signed and saved iirc £750k), or do you think that it's a lot more complex than that (Martin performing well now but overall play iffy, 35 years old so we might rely on him next season and he might not perform, JCH's poor performances hugely impacted by having to stay and big confidence shot etc.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes 35. Good luck getting the same outlay out from him next season. No doubt he’s been a better signing for you than JCH ever would’ve been. What an incredible pro and career he’s had though. 35, best goals per minutes at a level as good as league one. Fair ******* play to him.

His goals per game ratio this season is his best ever but it’s extremely unlikely to be repeated particularly due to his age. When he was at City he had no pace or mobility and, even allowing for the drop into League 1, it can’t have improved. Another year and he’ll be even slower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
