MattWSM Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Mirror is a good read today,,,,, At the other end of the table, Joey Barton's Bristol Rovers are the favourites to be relegated. The Gas sealed a dramatic promotion on the final day of last season with a scarcely-believable 7-0 win over Scunthorpe seeing them pinch the final automatic spot. But our number-crunchers calculate Barton's side have an almost 100 per cent chance of going straight back down - only a handful of its simulations had Rovers staying up. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/league-one-supercomputer-final-table-27531289 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full time grounds staff (if they have anyone) must pass by this inviting sight every shift and just not even notice it any more. I certainly wouldn't fancy hauling my grandchild into that place for a hose down. Still, a lot of sags like to rubbish our place from their higher point on the moral ground.

Popular Post RedLionLad Posted July 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2022 I phoned Heart FM today, to enter their mystery prize competition.

I called out in delight. "Feel Confident?" The presenter asked, "It's a Geography Question." "Well, I've got a degree in Geography from Oxford University," I proudly replied, "and I've taught Geography to A-level students for the last 20 years" "Ok then, to win our grand prize of 2 VIP tickets to a Bristol Rovers game at the Memorial Stadium and meet the players after the game, what is the capital of France?” "Merthyr Tydfil” I replied… 2 17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He basically says we are in a poor state if Clarke & Westbrooke (I have no idea who they are, by the way) are in my starting XI. Well, who picked them? Who signed them? That was you, Barton. How about taking some ownership & responsibility rather than throwing them under the bus. He really is the most obnoxious individual, but if you look at his life & how he lives it, you would already know that. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
