Problem is this league they haven’t been in for 30 years is absolutely brutal, “small” clubs like those this joker quotes have decent players & money they can only dream about. Rotherham did incredibly well to survive for the first time in six seasons last year, however they are getting hammered every week in their second season & on their way back down. Despite the local media false equivalence, Rovers are slowly dying, a ground that is shit, can’t afford to refurbish it, ageing fanbase that has no hope of getting the next generation of Bristolians to watch them. A slow death that I will really enjoy watching. Edited March 30 by GrahamC 5 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if ragtag Rovers sneaked in fluckily through the play offs one year with a squad like theirs at the moment. They wouldn't have the first clue how to compete and I could see a record low points total 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gasheads ladies and gentlemen… Of all the clubs that I can remember being in the Championship over the last few decades, the only ones that Rovers could possibly claim to be any bigger than would be Yeovil, Burton & possibly Wycombe. 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge catchment area, actual Championship standard ground & away support that unlike their myths, is very impressive. It is instructive that as you say, they are now seeing how hard it is & are in a real dogfight with the likes of Birmingham & Wednesday to stay up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying this for years and years, there is absolutely no point in the GAS getting promoted to the Championship. As Graham C pointed out this division is brutal, and they would get battered week in week out and would most definitely beat the lowest record ever of 23 points by Rotherham. Saying that though it would be bloody funny seeing that happen and them frothing at the mouth with each loss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The away support that, apparently, is the “envy of most clubs in L1” according to sags Deluded idiots. Did they seriously take 75 to Fleetwood?

I think we heard you the first time It's also worth noting that every club listed (bar Luton 300 less, but all seated and not reliant on terraces) has a significantly bigger ground as well as better team than them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamski Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 Just watched the highlights, only twice was the ball in the PV half, at the start of a PV attack......it must have been bad as there's normally one noteworthy hoof over the goal line or weak header or kick included to show some semblance of non-bias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
