I literally have no memory of a player with that name, I thought I could name our whole 11/12 for that period, was he pre Whitehead? Didn't play many games for us, signed on a free from WHU, he probably played more for West Ham than City ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Griffin, he lived in Lime Rd Bedminster about 10 doors up from my family. Nice guy, went on to Bath City and had a reasonable career when he found out that my dad and I used to go to Bath when the City were away he used to get us comp tickets. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to them for sticking two fingers up at Gormridge and Wael imo. The authentic family club knows no bounds.

It's not too far from the Mem, down at Eastville. Looks a bit ramshackle, but you're used to that. Building new stands that look like Eastville… GasLogic ‘we keeping it retro’ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howling gale and all 5 goals right in front of me. Great memories. Miss you dad. Scarves tied to wrists. Can’t remember the last time I saw that. Used to do it all the time in the 80s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it comes home to roost for them next summer when they don’t go up, and them being hugely over budget this season comes back to bite them.

She went to an awards event with the city rep Eve,representing HGT which is much more than just Bristol Rovers, what should she do say no cos our managers a knob? It’s her bad luck the team she supports has decided to plunge headlong into the 1970s. She won’t stop being a rovers fan but at this moment in time she can’t reconcile the direction of the club with the aims of her organisation. Barton and the gas ownership are pretty much a disgrace to modern football. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alf Saeed thought Rovers would be a nice plaything for young Abdullatif but the more he delves into it the more he realises what a mess he's landed himself with.

Port Said Red Posted October 7, 2023 Report Share Posted October 7, 2023 Apparently "Nicky" Hunt was adamant that Collins wasn't offside when put the ball in the net in the first half. It's not the first time I have heard that mistake, if I was Jack I would think about suing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
