For me I probably hate Swindon more than the gas but that’s purely down the the 14/15 season I actually dislike swindle more than the sags and all of the shenanigans that went on during our double winning season just underlined that for me. The sags however are just a laughing stock and continue to be almost on a daily basis. I mean the latest laugh being that their support is up there with Derby, West Ham & Blackburn. Very delusional. Try asking a sag fan [and they are becoming a rarity] for an explanation or even trying to engage in any constructive debate and in less than a minute one is usually met with the standard response of "shithead" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they breaking their own code? Where have they gone? The Bristol Post may have broken with tradition to an extent but stop short of pointing out (as I did over the weekend on here) that our attendances have increased by an even great number over the same period. So........... coincidence? I am sure that there a group of "football fans" in Bristol, who would go to a game if it looked attractive enough, whether it was red or blue. I think that a large percentage of those are now putting more money into the red side, because of the ground, the quality of football and the overall match day experience. There might still be games at the mem they go to over the course of the season, in the same way as I might go to Wetherspoons for something cheap and easy once in a blue moon, but generally I think they are sticking with quality.

But when they are only filling a very small stadium to only just over 50%, there seems to be no justification for it. It's yet another reason for the Council to turn down any plans they might have, but I am sure the deluded few will point to their away following which is totally irrelevant and made up anyway.

I think the sags are doing a great job of putting themselves down the 5hitter by not turning up, but I expect it will be someone else's fault as usual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He purposely comes out with completely deluded comments that are really far fetched. Amazingly some of the delusional ones actually agree with and like some of his posts. I think he goes under the name of Henbury Gas or something like that? If they play on a pitch we will watch them from the car park. It’s what we do because we’re so tight fisted like our owners! I watched this in Longwell Green cinema and as soon as the Sag shirt came out with the camp pirate marker penned out I heard some Saggies shouting “Yes!” whilst spanking their monkeys inside of their popcorn tub. So they popped their corn then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still the funniest thing ever in football. I would have loved to be there for that game. Although, according to most gas conspiracists, I was, like most of you too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gert Mare Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 We seem to be running a bit thin on Sag material by digressing to whether female commentators should be allowed in the men’s game. All I know is that anyone who attends the Minimal Tented Village to report on their match and doesn’t blow smoke up the arses of the faithful and true will immediately be branded as a ‘Gert Ted’ and abused in their ‘loved all over the country’ family club manner. Anyway, let’s get back on point......’Ave it! 1 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Page 20 of today's "Metro"; a Leeds fan applied to become Spurs manager in 1999. His only experience is the game Football Manager. Spurs wrote back with a rejection letter. He now has a collection of 68 rejection letters and wants to complete a set of all 92 EFL & Prem clubs. Due to his experience, would he get a rejection from the gas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
