I think they are polishing a turd in the Mem, and will try sell. Otherwise, why couldn't they have invested in the Colony by now? The fact that there is a suspicion are hoping to build houses also show that they are only in this o see personal financial gain. We are a football club and need a training ground, that is what needs to be built, not house.
If they don't have the money for training ground or stadium, then say so and look to move on, even Higgs had to admit when enough was enough. Yeah the ALQs are hiring backroom staff, but its the stadium that matters to us fans and no doubt any player that are thinking about singing for us.
Its hard to market Bristol Rovers as an exciting football club when we play in cowshed of a stadium.

I was actually chuffed about UWE collapsing and still am. We can build a decent stadium at the Mem and still be in the vicinity of some lovely pubs and eateries.
For those who have been to MK or Oxford away imagine trudging out there every other week to have a beer at the Hollywood bowl....

Another day, another dig at the board...... What a surprise! I wish people would give it a rest as it's becoming tiresome. It's the same points that get made time and time again like a stuck record and the same challenges back over and over again which then get completely ignored.
Its like Groundhog Day! Can't wait till tomorrow when we finally might have something different to discuss (although in reality win, lose or draw that'll get hijacked and turned into yet another board bashing post in some way).
i get the frustration and disappointment that some have and I get that they'll never change their view and they don't like the new owners for whatever reason just like I understand those who have the opposite view. But now after months and months of continued regurgitated bickering amongst ourselves can we not just call it a day and agree to disagree?

Cant people bash the board without having being told to not bash the board. You dont have to read and comment on every thread. |

No doubt you are aware that despite all SL's wealth our neighbours across the City also have a rented training ground and only recently have plans for their own. They too had plans for another stadium but have ended up rebuilding their current home. It really is not much to do with wealth but to do with what is right at the time and what is feasible Incidentally, we don't seem to have problems with good players signing for us - not sure if singing is a requirement though? - joke! |

Correct which is what our owners have said is their plan too. However Lansdown announced his plans the day after their Ashton Vale stadium collapsed, put a planning application in soon after and started building as soon as possible after that. Meanwhile the fake sheikhs have done nothing and said nothing about our development plans in the whole year since UWE collapsed. Conclusion they either don't have the intention or they don't have the means to deliver. Why cant they just be honest about this instead of pretending that things are happening and all is well.
The announcement to cancel UWE came after a long spell of zero communication from the decision makers and it was followed by a further 6 months of zero communication at which point Wael said that he would seek to improve communication, and that has been followed by a further 6 months of zero communication.
Anyone who listened or attended the BBC forum on Monday can see how frustrated the manager has become and isn't even trying to hide it with his "someone needs to get their finger out" comment and anyone who thinks he's playing a game here is deluded. He is like he is because everything is at it appears. Nothing IS happening.

Any chance you can stop using the term "fake sheiks"? |

All we can do as fans is try and hold them to account and to try and influence the way that the rich and powerful behave. That is what the Dam internet can help with. Like I said to you earlier this week, we know that the internet influences as the Russians are being accused of using it to influence things aren’t they! |

Like I said to you earlier this week, we know that the internet influences as the Russians are being accused of using it to influence things aren’t they! Organise a protest in the car park before matches. Have a big banner saying 'we don't want no fake sheiks in Bristol'. Urge fellow supporters to rise up against them. Organise anti-Wael chants during matches. On the 83rd minute in each match get your band of fellow travellers to all chant 'f**k off Wael you fake lady garden' for the entire minute. Maybe you can drive him out. Spam his twitter account with requests for information and demands he justify himself or leave. Get everyone who agrees with you to wear yellow and green cardigans to matches and chant 'Our Cardy, not Al Qadi!' over and over again until he leaves. |
