TonyTonyTony Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 If you had said 10 yrs ago FGR would be in the same league as Sunderland, Derby, Sheff W etc you would have be called insane. League One is mental, and probably the hardest league to get out of. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 I like to see local teams doing well and both FGR and the gas could both go up automatically. They play each other this weekend. That’s got a daw written all over it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 I, for one, look forward to FGR's progress: Condemning, as it does, the Gas to being the third best team in Gloucestershire. (For carnivores mysteriously annoyed by the presence of vegetarians in the world, you can eat elsewhere you know. Buying a pie at football isn't compulsory. I've never eaten at the Gate) 14 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nebristolred Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 Proper bizarre behaviour from people disliking a club purely because they dare to do things differently. People whinge endlessly at veggies for moaning but then moan themselves the one time in their lives that they can't buy a fooking meat pie. I hope they go up and score so many goals against the sags that they can't fit it in on the scoreboard. 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having not paid much attention to L1 I was shocked a couple of weeks ago to look at the table for who we may be playing next year to see Wigan, Rotherham, MK Dons, Wycombe and Plymouth all in the top 7 with other clubs like Ipswich, Charlton, Portsmouth and Sunderland lagging behind (and Wednesday but that’s obviously changed now). Tough division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 I’m certainly looking forward to it. I’ve attended about 8 or 9 FGR games this season and I actually really enjoy the experience up there. Since moving out of Bedminster 6 years ago, FGR are technically my local team now, and I’ve been willing them to do well. I’m usually quite impartial / neutral when I visit, but on Monday, when Jamille scored the 2nd to pretty much secure promotion, I did find myself cheering the goal almost as much as I would do a City goal. So I do kinda feel invested in them a bit more now. It’s actually the one thing that is making me delay in my City season ticket renewal. Living so far out now, getting to and from Ashton Gate is a bit of a mare, plus my wife has to work Saturday evenings now so I need to be home by 5:30pm. This means a huge rush to get out of the ground and home and not being able to see mates after the game etc, whereas a trip to Nailsworth means I can park 3 minute walk away and be home by 5:15pm with no bother. I might end up waiting for the fixtures lists to come out and decide whether I buy an ST for City or for FGR. This year, the home Saturday games tended to coincide. If they are on alternate weeks next season I might even buy an ST for both. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Army 75 Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 The quicker Forest Green move to their new ground the better. Horrendous getting back down that hill after the game. Hope they go up though. Good luck to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
