BG took a Ford Focus and traded it in for a 25 year old Skoda. PT decided not to get the Skoda serviced but did buy some stylish seat covers. JB crashed the Skoda into a brick wall and blamed it on the previous owners. Wouldn't stand up in a court of law as you haven't specified whether the the accused previous owners were previously in ownership of the Skoda or the brick wall...

Hi, Pompey fan in peace. I just wanted to say cheers to Big Jock and some of the other contributors on here. Like a weird stalker, I've been following this thread for most of lockdown (who knew that would be a thing at the start of 2020?); and it's been a source of great entertainment in some pretty weird times. I hope you're all keeping well and holding on to the fact that when you support a club that isn't a Manchester United or Liverpool that it's the sh**e seasons that make the odd flashes of success so much more satisfying. Take care Gas, and look forward to visiting the Mem in the not too distant. ps - keep posting the serving suggestions - apart from the Brussels Sprouts sauce (wtf!) Hi. Please lend us some players. Bye. Yeah..... We'll swap 4 left backs for browner....

Struggling to see what basis of any legal action would be here? He mouthed off in the media and said he’d be willing to explain why he thinks that. Handbags but surely no grounds for legal case. What would be PT and BG response? “We did a great job, actually” 🥴 Not sure I agree with this to be honest. I thought when he said it that there could be legal issues surrounding his comments. Think of it from Tisdale and Garner's perspective. They want to get back in work, which they are perfectly entitled to do, and they have been directly called "negligent" by their replacement in a press conference. It's not the same as a new employer looking at their record of results. An employer might think "well, they failed to achieve results at Bristol Rovers, but their coaching pedigree is generally favourable, so we'd offer him the job, except for this claim from Joey Barton that they were negligent in their duties, which is a big red flag". True this, and the bit about 'if they were doctors', is basically saying they shouldn't be allowed to work in football again. Very poorly thought out words....

Why do people say we are still paying any of these managers wages, do you know this for sure? How do you know there was not something put in their contract? How do you know they haven't already been paid off? I think (but don't quote me) the general practice is that you get paid for 12 months after dismissal or until you take other employment....

I made a beautiful seafood salad last night with King Prawns, Mussels and Squid...... It was amazing! However today my backside is leaking tremendously' I wonder if the 4 litres of strong cider I drank before has anything to do with this? Never happenned before 🙄😉🤔 Doesn't sound like there was too much fibre going on there either.... And yes, cider is a laxative. From my own experience the worst culprits are the unpasteurised scrumpy's you can pick up from the farm shop.... I won't bore you with further details....

Yeah, you called that one pretty well, still doesn't mean anything will happen.... What's the chances no one gets the blame for anything during the Ipswich presser?

Widdrington needs to pack his bags Maybe Sunderland can give him a lift back up there (the further the better). I think he would get in the wrong coach....

Joey said we needed from our last 9 games:
4 wins, 3 draws, 2 loses....
We've crossed off one of the loses so we are getting there I suppose....

so depressing to say about my own team but I also think we will finish rock bottom. We are so sh** we probably wont even be able to get that right. 23rd. Should be OK for that.... Only need to maintain league position from now on....

Rare photo of Bristol Rovers back 4 in action during a set peice. Not a formation expert, but I reckon that's a back five. The one on the left is clearly the physio....

No fecker attacking the ball.... Not one of them

If we can't get at least a draw today, its crucial that we don't get thrashed.... Any big deficit on goal difference would be tantamount to being deducted a point the way the table is right now....
We have to go out like at Charlton, and hope for the best today....

Some peoples bizarre obsession and dislike of Barton is actually sad. Imagine wanting someone to fail which will ultimately result in our club failing. Strange strange ‘fanbase’. Don't you think its stranger that people who thought Joey would save us and still love Joey were already saying they still want him here next season if we get relegated, despite that we were 2 points above the drop zone with 16 games left only a few weeks back.... People want us to stay up which is why they're being critical.... Its not an 'obsession and dislike', its a concern to why so many believe he's done anything to improve our situation.... At the moment I can't see any improvement, in fact its looking worse by the day....

This thread would seem not to back you up there. How many threads slating players are there on front page of Gaschat this week? Look back on games against Fleetwood. How many were about their players or formation etc? Barton is very good at carrying the flack and deflecting the focus. I think he knows exactly what he is doing. He refuses to take any of the blame so he's getting blamed for not taking any of the blame which was his plan all along to take all the blame? The bloke's a f**king genius. Joey Bartons standard model:

The thought that we might never have the opportunity to see Sam Nicholson live in Rovers shirt both saddens and disappoints me. Hope he stays beyond this year but wouldn’t surprise me if he wanted to leave. Whether we stay up or not I reckon he'll go to a challenging league 1 club....
