RedTop Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 ...it was a bit of a pisser seeing as it is of course tomorrow. Yes, I know it's been plastered all over the web for weeks. Yes, I know there was all the controversy over whether us or Rovers should be at home today. I just forgot and got straight into football mode when I woke up. I dragged RedTopJr into the car, drove 120 miles down the motorway from London, and was sailing nicely down the M32 just in time to turn on Radio Bristol for the start of the Twentyman show. Initial surprise, and then irritation, at the concentration on the Gas and non-league matches only subsided when the truth dawned.Fortunately, some friends had gone racing at Chepstow and invited us to join them. A great day in the end before trapsing the 120 miles home again. Just time to grab some kip and refill the car with petrol before setting out on the same journey back down the M4 again tomorrow morning for the REAL game! I just hope I'll be cheering on a few more winners than I did at the racing today.What a plonker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhistleHappy Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 ..Then again, if you were wanting the Sunday Home game against Gillingham... then you'll be needing to avoid the Cheltenham route & use the M32... !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a plonker, said the well known reporter, after setting off with his daughter to see his favorite football team play a day too early.On questioning mini-redtop she agreed that her Dad was a bit of a plonker but added that she was very concerned at one point that Dad had become a Gasshead...... mini-redtop has since decided to drop charges as it is understood that Dad would have become a AFC Bournemouth supporter for the day should he have reached Bristol with no BRISTOL CITY FC game being played and the only one being available was Gassers v AFC B'mth.RedTop denies having a 'Fleet Street Juice' habit but was found to have mineral water on him at the time of his mistake ........ the case continues today at ASHTON GATE!
