I honestly think most of them would prefer to watch us get beat.

I honestly think they would - it matters far more to them that we fail than they succeed. Totally bitter and twisted with envy the lot of them.

This, and if it's still raining, that will be the clincher.

We’re talking about ‘supporters’ who shun their own side when they’re at home because the Champions League is on TV. 

Considering we’re playing on the box I’ll be amazed if more than a couple of thousand turn up to watch them tomorrow. Those that do attend will be kept informed of our game on their flashy 40 inch ‘big screen’ telly than SL flogged them (but only if it’s Cardiff who have scored).

Well, given how some of them are moaning that they are being fleeced because Bury have gone under and they are one game short on the cost of their season tickets, maybe they could show our game on their big telly whilst their game is going on.

It would be the perfect solution.

Don`t forget it`s all pay tomorrow so no season tickets being passed through the fence AND they would have had to get a ticket in advance which appears to be a difficult concept that really seems to trouble their tiny brains.

I doubt many will turn up, well home fans anyway. 5K home fans if they're lucky I should think. No idea what their excuses will be, City on the tele? ;)

It could be anything really - it`s cold and they haven`t shoplifted their winter coat from TK Maxx yet, there`s a sale on at Poundland, who knows?

I like how their star ratings (based presumably upon #posts/#likes?) move from Newbie to Youth Team to Reserve Team to First Team to Fans' Favourite to Club Legend to Rickie Lambert (Wtf?) to Gas. It's so sweet. I'm sure we can suggest some others? :yawn:

I assume the ultimate level is Holloway's fluffer...

The Christmas lights were turned on in Cabot Circus a few days ago and this was their first chance to go and see them.

They will be boycotting the FA Cup for including teams capable of beating them. A clear piece of bias against the Gas, innit.

Over 400 Bromley fans expected today, could push the crowd over 4,000?

I’d have thought that was pretty poor for a massive FA Cup game for lucky Bromley. Don’t they know how blessed they are to be allowed to perform at the Mecca of football..?!

3649 total gate, 521 away, just over 3000 Gasheads watching in the men, probably a couple of thousand, crying into their beer in the pubs after watching our win.

*edit*

According to that dick on Radio Bristol, there are a couple of good things to take from today;

1 There is a good view of Dundry apparently

2. The gas are still in the F A cup, (after playing a 10 man non-league side)

Congratulations to Rovers. 
Not being out of the cup yet is a clear sign of progress. 

Indeed - they don't often make it to the 2nd round draw

Does this constitute a "cup run"? when will the DVD be out?

Isn’t the replay going to be a problem..?
Do Bromley have a ground capable of accommodating Rovers’ massive away support..? 
 

Perhaps they’ve preempted this situation and already arranged to move it to West Ham’s ground, or Wembley..?

It won’t be THAT Embarrasing. It’s an away game, so nobody will see their ground. 

Would guess the reason the Fewers get very little television coverage is because their ground is so open and the floodlights only hit minimum requirements.

Wonder if Bromley can get them the exposure they crave.

" Well that was a painful watch very few positives to take from today we're still in the hat & we got some game time into JCH but apart from that ??
Lots of backwards & sideways passing which is fine if you then have follow it with a creative pass or work a position for a cross or shot. Unfortunately today that very rarely happened the only real moment of creativity cane for the goal (ironically from Little who for the most part struggled & doesn't look fit to me).
It's going to be a tough replay but surely we can't be that bad again ?
One other thing anyone have any idea why we wore arm bands with poppies instead of them being on our shirts ?"

That'll be down to cost as you didn't raise enough on the gate

Can they get any more dense ?
 
This belter had to be reminded that we don't enter until the 3rd round of the F.A. Cup
 
Then another advises they don't want us to humiliate them !  :laughcont:
 
 
Second round draw tomorrow 7 pm on BBC2
 

Anyone but the sh**, wouldn't want them to to humiliate us.

 

Championship clubs don’t enter until round 3. Can’t see us getting that far!

 

Edit Great minds, Redraw

Just seeking verification ....

 

Attendance:

3,649 - 521away fans  =  3,128 loyal and true 

 

 

At least they had more than we took to Cardiff, something for them to boast about.

 

I clearly overestimated their home support when predicting around 5000 home supporters, 3128 is truly pathetic! :)
