myol'man Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Korey Smith was in the commentary booth for the BCTV+ coverage yesterday and he took credit for Matty Taylor’s goal. He claims he told MT pre-match that whenever he got the ball he should have a shot or he’d need to give Smith a fiver. “That was all the motivation I needed,” said Taylor. “That was a week’s wages when I was at Rovers.” 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 On 13/01/2019 at 20:48, Miah Dennehy said: I think every club has cheated at some point, although I'm not convinced we did over the Stockport postponement. Do you think City have ever cheated? BRFC were warned officially by the FA about future conduct, concerning the late late Stockport postponement. This was where the groundsman was seen by a Stockport official, watering the corner of the pitch at the non tent corner, and Stockport made an official complaint. A similar event happened at Trumpton when Rovers were due to host Bristol City. Rovers who were struggling with injuries to key players had a piece of good fortune. The water main, which was three ft underground, suddenly sprang a leak overnight and, the game had to be postponed due to a waterlogged corner of the pitch. I believe the groundsman was re employed at the rugby ground by BRFC, then made a life president, along with Arthur Holmes the rugby club chairman, for their services to BRFC. BCFC cheated when making an application for grants, I think Les Kew was in charge at the time but, I could be wrong on this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I was at the game where the 'lightening strike' happened. Admittedly I'm not an expert on such things . but I would like to think that if I was in a structure that was hit by lightening I would probably realise it had happened. Seemingly it was only their safety officer who saw the lightening strike, added to the fact that Wycombe had been practically begging the ref to abandon the game up until then , I'm gonna stick my neck out and say yes, the dirty ******* cheated and I was raging at the time! In the interest of balance, I freely admit that if this had happened to City, I would have found it extremely amusing Care to comment about Stockport at home just before the 2nd leg of the JPT Final against us when your club flooded the pitch to avoid playing an in form Stockport.

Wael , or whatever his name is, obviously saw that we recently let an academy player go with no fee but with a large sell on clause.

Of course that always depends on the player actually having future value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
