Excellent summary and spot on with your facts. I would also add that the club is still under an embargo and can  only pay players a maximum of £1200 per month on wages.

You can only pay your player a max of £300 a week..? 

I find that utterly impossible to believe..!

Apologies yes I meant per week 

I still find that hard to believe. 

£1,200 a week is good money, of course. But I'd find it very hard to believe that's the most you can pay any player.

Oh, to play the methane dwellers in the cup. They would turn up in their droves to be utterly humiliated too! 

OTIB

Nah, it's easier for them to just get knocked out by a non league team, than have to bother with the hassle of missing with the likes of them. 

Can you imagine Bartons instructions, to earn himself a lagendary place in their folklaw...? 

 

Not for me thanks. 

Nothing to prove against those scummers.

Let them earn a Derby by getting in our division, or otherwise stay well clear of them for as long as possible.

Not going to happen BBS3, I appreciate the sentiment though. I just want to smash the ba5tards, one more time before they go 'pop' or disappear into oblivion.

Them arguing amongst themselves is hilarious

The commentary throughout consisted pretty much of s**t, oh s**t which pretty much sum up rag bag rovers 

It's a comedy classic, almost as good as the 'Alan Partridge Goals Compilation' from The Day Today.  With the tour de force, at the end, of two morons screaming at each other, about whether it's "Joey Bartons ****ing fault" or "BenGarner's ****ing fault that Joey Barton is ****ing shit" at the end there. 

Just genius. Sadly I think it's actually supposed to be a serious vLog, Video Diary or whatever they call these things these days.

It would be like David VS Golieth - and we all know what happened in that one, due to 1 lucky sling shot..!

If Golieth had just said "F. Off David, I've nothing to prove against you, you pikey little embarrassment, now piss of back to your tent' would any of us ever even heard of David...? 

The simple answer is "no", so why give them the platform to make a name for themselves...?

We couldn't possibly win by competing against them. It would either be a case of "proving" ourselves, which we've no need to do, or leaving ourselves open to either a shock, or be victim of their tactics to make a name for themselves. 

If they earn the right to play us, or get lucky enough to land a cup tie - them of course, smashing them into next week would be sweet - but wholey unnecessary otherwise. I certainly don't crave the fixture.

Blaming the fuel crisis, excuse incoming....

They only managed to drag their home support up to around 6800, after a confidence boosting win and in a local(ish) derby. I can see around 1000 of those disappearing next week.

That's a good wage for league Two, I think the average down there is 900 quid a week

In amongst the comedy of the commentary mosting consisting of the words 'oh shit', have to commend the lad who put it together.

A few hours after the game to have edited that and posted it is quite the effort.

My personal highlight was the 'you bald headed....' at the end

It`s clearly a conspiracy hatched by Bristol City Council, Sainsbury`s and Wycombe Wanderers and the evil genius behind it all is the tax dodger Pantsdown.

How many did they bring to the Millennium Stadium for their previous cup final? Surely it should be close to that figure?

Yes, you are right. 

Just looked it up and average league 2 wage is a grand a week. 

Not that much of a handicap to be restricted to £1200 a week max then.

From the comments on their BBC match report. I really, really, hope this is satire because if it is it’s genius. ???

Quick return to the championship...? 

Since when has 20 years been quick..?! 

Especially when absolutely nowhere near achieving it..!

Gas_Harry_15's mockumentary is the funniest thing I've watched in ages and his stream of consciousness commentary a thing of genius. 

My personal favourite wasn't the constant stream of, "Sh*t!" every time The Gas were defending (sic), rather: "...that was never a fu*kin penalty........I'd 'ave to look at it again as I didn't see it....."

I know the Police quite rightly are coming in for some criticism of late but credit where credit's due.

I see many Fewers are complaining that yesterday they were kettled in their own ground by the Old Bill long after the final whistle so as to allow jubilant Swindon fans an expedite exit. They complain they were forced to wait and watch for half an hour or more whilst being taunted at for yet another abject performance.

Whoever the matchday commander was, take a bow......

Exactly! How is 20 years ‘swift’?

Don’t ask the Gas though because it’s closer to THIRTY years since they were last in the second tier.

Edit: looks like someone else has already pointed that out ?

Isn't that the year that Swindle were immediately relegated 2 divisions for cheating? I am surprised the Gas haven't started a retrospective legal case to reverse their relegation.

Glorious.

Such is the level of unhappiness amongst the Fewers now, they have started to talk about boycotts and protests.

https://gasheads.org/thread/10053/waels-latest-delusion?page=1

Wonder if this will be as successful as their gold and black (or whatever it was) campaign that saw 3 supporters wearing a different coloured scarf, or their Mickey Mouse Cup boycott that still sees fans turn up.

They really are the least organised shower of supporters I think the football league have seen.

Surprised they don't carry a coffin down Gloucester Road to show Wally what's what. The clowns.

Thinking about it, they did once organise a really successful boycott and made the national press with it. Sadly for them, that was their open top bus parade when they finished somewhere that wasn't top of non league.

The gift.

They do make me laugh with their boycott nonsense.

 

Them saying that refuse to go to their home games is like me stating that I'd refuse to make Rachel Riley a full English after I've spent the night with her. 

 

Actually, I suppose there is half a chance that I might one day spend the night with Rachel Riley - so it's not a great analogy..!

Don’t forget their plans to boycott Sainsbury’s by going in, filling up some trolleys with food and leaving them parked up around the aisles for some poor workie kid to sort out.

I think one of them suggested defecating in the freezers...and even if I’ve got that wrong then it’s still the sort of thing I would expect them to do. Dirty animals.

Some sag definitely did a drive by ‘shout‘ at one store. Filmed it and uploaded it to Facebook for us to laugh at. I’d love to see that video again.

You don't have that problem with a "souless bowl" of a ground, so time to make their minds up: you want to be an "authentic" 70s throwback (ie skint, and no choice in the matter) or a 21st century club, like 95% of the pyramid?

You were spot on ... and it was none other than that fine upstanding purveyor of computing services - Henbury Gas
