The majority must be so proud to have these chimps in their midst
Calling fellow paying supporters lady gardens is pretty low even for window lickers like this.....

I thought it was because most of them had been sectioned under the incest act 1982.

Vile lot - even though they have the better history and played in old first division I have a feeling many are somewhat jealous of the Rovers - we are after all the cool club in Bristol and not the chavvy club wearing Burberry baseball caps giving it the big'un on North Street! I forgot to mention I visited a friend in Bedminster last year and we went on a midweek Jägerbomb pub crawl. We ended up in some pub over there that had city stuff all over the walls (anybody know the name of it?). I was wearing my rovers shorts - a knackered old pair but the badge was still visible. The bar owner said I could stay but warned me this is a red pub and he'd not be responsible for the actions of others. Must've been told to leave or I'd get it by the locals more than ten times but I stayed on until I was ready to leave - about two hours until I was Jägerbombed out!

No, just the shorts. Used them for cycling. Never been a kit buyer but always buy those xxls sold on open days as they're good for doing stuff around the house and wearing over girly leggings when cycling.

The whole section 82 thing is a tad embarrassing. "8 men had a dream, to save a football team" I'm sure when they were growing up they couldn't wait to be pressured by thousands of people to tear up their contracts to save a football club. bet they even love the death threats and turd through their letterboxes even more

BBC commentator, Jonathan Pearce “This week in 1982 I saw the club I worshipped as boy, Bristol City, climb through legal and financial loopholes to survive. The ‘Ashton Gate Eight’ affair went into football infamy. The Robins had been bobbin‘ along nicely in the old First Division, but they seriously over-extended. Players were signed on staggering 10-year contracts, the big slide came and it was a record for English football. From the top flight to the bottom in successive seasons, it was Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost’ in football terms. Bankruptcy loomed and a survival plan was dreamed up. The old club would be wound up and a new company would take over the club’s title and fixtures. The League approved but it could only happen if eight players agreed to tear up their contracts. The professional careers and the home lives of those eight heroes, many of whom I’d known since the age of 12, were the acceptable collateral damage for the suited boardroom money men who’d allowed the chaos to loom in the first place. My dad, who worked for the club, continued on for a couple of years for a pittance. His love affair had turned sordid.”
10-year contracts - feck me!

Sounds a bit like an extreme version of what we went through until a couple of years ago.

Have you seen that footage on youtube from a couple of years ago, down town about a dozen plus of the muppets walk into a pub and start on three leeds lads, all big and hard till the landlady chucks em out by herself. Sadly the thugs that tried to riot on may 2nd 1990 have been allowed to breed and their off spring are now in section82. Gas em!!

We have one difficult game at Exeter (forget York v portsmouth, a happy abberation) the others (with the exception of accrington) have at least that, and oxfords run in, in my opinion, is horrid. It's still do able. Win the last three and we will be unlucky not to go up automatically.
