I'm wondering how they're affording to get all these players in. Is Mr Snake Oil working there behind the scenes?

Or is it because they're all wife beaters and no one else will have them?

Just a few free transfers and a couple of loans isn't it

They’ll be massively over budget on wages. They were last year to finish lower bottom half ffs.
 

Brown, Sinclair, Friend and Wilson will be on a packet, relative to them anyway. They haven’t got a pot to piss in for transfer fees. Will be missing out on a chunk of matchday income with this new stand being late too.

So, some of us are getting excited because we have a young side looking to improve on a good end to last season, we have invested wisely and have a experienced Management team in a state of the art training centre.

They are excited by ummmm, beating a poor Swansea side?

It's always wise to base your upcoming season on preseason friendlies. 

God knows what they will think if we don't get a better result than them in our friendly game at Portsmouth, we won't hear the end of them coming for us again.

They're just a team of wife beaters and panel beaters.

Joey was in charge of the advert for new players and made a Freudian Slip when asking for World Beaters......

Or the black grime on the breezeblocks above that "sign"

Did they nick the entrance to the gents' toilets from the old East End before it was demolished ?

Let's be honest we are the last club to be taking the piss about club shops and their stock

Maybe not but that entrance looks like something that you want to run away from but can't in a bad dream.

I have never been to the Mem but have seen lots of photos of grey building blocks on here. Would it be that difficult to render them or paint them white or something? Or clad them?

Looks like the entrance to a public shitter.

Probably smells the same as well

From memory of going to watch Bristol there, it does look like the entrance to the toilets on the side of what is now known as the Dri Build stand.

Perhaps the clowns at Ashton gate could take notice of this, we could close for a 20 minute coffee break and replenish the shite currently on offer!

Why does it take 2 days??!! 
That’s 48 hours. When maybe 24 would be plenty. 
It’s almost like taking 24k to Wembley and pretending it was 48k!

I see Liverpool have just announced their new upper tier won't be open for their first home game of the season... 

I wonder who else will be having problems?? 

Similar size stand to Rovers new stand I believe ??

Is that a poorly constructed concrete ramp? ... or the steady outflow of something disgusting and unmentionable from within?

that's to allow all the boiling unmentionable run out when we find something else they've done to laugh at

that'll be to allow all the boiling unmentionable to run out once they've seen we've usurped them at something again

To be fair, the shop was well stocked today and the merch was selling well.

Had to go to Horfield for work today. I noticed a few hundred yards from filton Ave on muller rd , someone has depicted a wildlife scene on a long garden wall . It’s a very nice piece of art to be fair . I don’t think it will last though as part of the way through it is a very large robin . How long before that gets defaced.

Sorry this may have been mentioned and missed by me, but is that a statue of a horse outside their toilets!?

Its the grim, dimly lit entrance to a converted public convenience evident by the white tiled walls. Captain Gas is lurking in one of the cubicles. What you can't see is the black eye the horse is displaying.

It's their version of the "This is Anfield" sign. Instead of tapping it, they punch the bugger instead

I phoned Heart FM today, to enter their mystery prize competition.

The presenter answered and said, "Congratulations on being our first caller, all you need to do is answer the following question correctly, to win our Mystery Grand Star Prize'

"Thats Fantastic!" I called out in delight.

"Feel Confident?" The presenter asked, "It's a

Geography Question."

"Well, I've got a degree in Geography from Salford University," | proudly replied, "and I've taught Geography to A level students for the last 10 vears"

"Ok then, to win our grand prize of 2 VIP tickets to a Bristol Rovers game and to meet the players after the game, what is the capital of France?"

"Bradford", I replied.
