GrahamC Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 8 minutes ago, cider hoss rules said: From the BBC website…. Accrington moved out of the bottom four with a comfortable victory over play-off chasing Bristol Rovers. Radio Bristol’s Twitter feed, which unusually doesn’t mention their amazing away support today does say the first goal followed a blatant handball. They do love making excuses for them, don’t they?

Port Said Red Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) I heard the interview, where once again he basically said that Accrington played the wrong kind of football and that there was a clear handball in the lead up to the goal. He then said that the referee had shown him the rulebook after the game to prove that accidental handball by a player other than the goalscorer was not an offence. He then said he's off now so he can't be held accountable, I mean how dare the referee want to get home after a game. He also said that he had told the referee that his players might as well knock the ball around by hand, if that was the rule. Completely missing the "accidental" part of the rule. I then watched the highlights, neither goal could be described as "route 1" and the handball was indeed accidental and via the players thigh. Joe wandering off before the end didn't make it to the interview surprisingly. Edited January 14, 2023 by Port Said Red 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My answer to that is simple. Because they are based in the same city and virtually all of us know Gasheads who are very vocal whenever they think they have something to criticise us over. It's called banter, and it's an essential part of football culture and has always existed. We have less interest in the antics of clubs of similar size to Rovers: Peterborough, Northampton, Lincoln, Notts County etc, because they are geographically removed, not part of an ongoing rivalry and - let's face it - less of a laughing stock than the Boca Infants of League One. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look son, it's not that we worry about them. It's just that when we have the occasional down day, you can turn to this thread and immediately feel so much better. They could be moved to the written or visual joke pages or we could start a football "joke club" page. But it's easy to access where it is and it is actually funnier than the joke page.

Midlands Robin Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) This is the last time I was in the stands for a home league match against the SAGs. It made my Christmas so much better.

Anyway, my actual point is, if our new poster Ashton Hero is under 22 years old, he wouldn't have been alive for a league match between us at Ashton Gate. The last time we played each other in the league was a 1-1 draw at the campsite on the 3rd April 2001. I can't think of two teams from any other City who have failed to play each other for that long. (Port Vale last played Stoke in the league on the 10th Feb 2002 for example). In theory, we've now got fans who were born, finished school, got married and had their first child and never watched a league match between us and the blue few.

Apart from that Bignot sucker punch and a late Cameron consolation they barely created a chance all night. Beadle very close to a wonder goal, but his introduction, after Robbie Pathetic crocked Lee Peacock, transformed the game. Must have really hurt them to see the man who had caused us so much pain in Gate derbies doing the business against them in a red shirt. Thorpe’s goal was a thing of beauty.

Lanterne Rouge Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Just dipped into their stadium thread. They are now expressing concerns that Temple Meads could be overwhelmed by the 25k crowds they will get at the new cabbage patch stadium. The gift never fails to deliver. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 3000 pages is a little embarrassing TBH. If we were genuinely massive, as our players and fans used to claim ad nauseam, we would have bigger things to worry about. Just saying. Simple answer is, they’re a laugh a minute and they’d give some top level comedians a run for their in terms of laugh potential. Difference.is, I’d pay good money to see a good comedian, but I’d pay f all towards that lot …… especially when you can read all about it on this thread! We dont call them The Gift for nothing mate!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn't for Lansdown's extensive investment, do you think you would be in a higher league than them? Or, to put it differently, given the amount that Lansdown has invested in the club, is he not entitled to expect the gap (16 places) to be a lot, lot bigger? Lansdown had aspirations for you to be a lot, lot bigger than you actually are. When he leaves, my assumption is that equilibrium will bring you back down again. Is he taking our 20,000 crowds with him as well? You absolute ******* melt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 4 minutes ago, Ashton Hero said: Any more embarrassing than Pearson's press conferences? Somebody needs to tell him how to speak to people and to learn some manners. JB isn't everybody's cup of tea, but he has a sense of humour and some self-awareness. Pearson comes across as an utterly unlikable k*ob. Quite right, I mean insulting the manager of every side you play against is very “self aware”. If by “not being everyone’s cup of tea”, you mean he’s a criminal who is friends with other criminals & employs people who have served bans for betting on games they’ve played in & a scout who went to court accused on kicking a policeman to death, that sort of “self aware”? **** off, gas. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
