Guest Janov Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 YOU LOT MUST BE STUPID. THE SHOW IS CALLED ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES AND THE TOWER BLOCK IS BEHIND THE EVENING POST STAND. THE WILLIAMS STAND IS THE ONE ON THE OTHER SIDE WHERE THE PLAYERS COME OUT OF THE TUNNEL BEFORE THE MATCH. THERE ARE SOME REALLY STUPID PEOPLE ON THIS FORUM.

By the way the players actually come out of the Wedlock Stand now - named after one of our old chairmen back when Larry Dolman was still playing.

If only we'd signed him we'd be in the Premiership for sure now, maybe even the quarter finals of the Champions League. PS Is anyone watching Blackadder at the moment? It's got that 'orrible Gashead Tony Robinson in it as someone called Baldrock I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry "Red 'Un", but you're actually referring to Lloyd Grossman, who wrote the famous daytime soap "Dock Tours". Anyway, he uses a pen name....Bill Biro.

openEnd Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 That Rob Newman was a good player in his day. I didn't know that David Baddiels old sidekick was an ex-player of ours and current manager of Bristol South End. The things you learn Has David Baddiel or even Frank Skinner ever made an appearance for them? or us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure but I believe one of their colleagues from the Mary Whitehouse Experience (Steve Punt) has been seen playing for Bristol Rovers for years now.

I'm not sure either, i'ts soo frustrating cos my life is incomplete without this information. What I do know is that David Rennie was enough to give me indigestion! You aint seen me, right?

screech Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 I think we got him from Lyon, his name is actually David Rene he's german i think, he used to play in the Dutch league for Real Madrid, he won the World cup for them too, sounds like the kind of player we need down at Ashton fence, give us fans something to shout about in division 3 south.

Isn't it about time they thought about restructuring the League? I've heard rumours that the "Big Five" want to split so that they can keep all the TV money amongst the elite.

Needless to say RedUn I have suggested before that the players return to the Williams stand to come on to the pitch. It just looks better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
