But it doesn't sound like an unreasonable suggestion that if you have games coming up against weaker opposition then it represents an opportunity to climb the table. Assessing our upcoming fixtures is something we do on this very forum all the time, and we all speculate about points returns based on the sides we are due to play.

Where would they be without their numerous penalties, injury time winners and opposing players being sent off? Their luck is finally catching up with them, couldn't beat a woefully poor bottom four club MK over 2 games and the same against conference bound Crawley in the cup over 180 minutes, throw in the big defeats against Millwall and Charlton show that the wheels are starting to fall off, back to under 7000 for the next home game me thinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paxton Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Wasn't going to admit this, but I was on the away terrace with my Charlton-supporting mate tonight. While I felt pretty ashamed to be setting foot in the Mem (probably my first and last time – might need a chemical bath), I can't describe how satisfying it was to watch the Gas get hammered 5-1. After a fairly strong start, they were absolutely dire for most of the game. Atmosphere was terrible, and those tent stands are laughably bad.

This the beauty of Plan-B - they dont have to build at all! The kids park is a perfect solution for "the countries sixth richest club" - four jumpers for goalposts, maybe a white plastic chair for wally and his watch, and a £20 white plastic gazebo from B&Q for the fans and they are sorted.

bert tann Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I've been telling you for years that the Merchant Venturers hold the key to Rovers future and it now appears that a sixty four year old member of that esteemed fraternity has the power to decide our fate. Rovers independence was traditionally upheld by custodians who fought valiantly to preserve our identity and keep our dreams alive but everything may be about to change. As well meaning as the Al-Qadi family might be they could have unwittingly destroyed the fragile balance which has kept Rovers in existence as an actual or potential rival to Bristol City for so many years. Now it seems we may be destined to become a feeder club for the Robins and a tenant to elements among those maritime trading rogues who have been so keen to retrieve the pot of gold which they believe was taken from them in 1998.
