Forgot about Gibbons.Is he still ours but out on loan at Cambridge? Highly rated at Port Vale but never really convinced for us.

Well he didn’t have that many games in charge this season before he was sacked but yes he obviously built the squad in the summer. Staying up was always going to be a big ask though as I’d imagine they’ve got one of the smallest budgets in the championship and they were the lowest ranked club at the beginning of the season in terms of odds for promotion / favourites to go down. So D.c took us down. Joey took us down. Wasn’t Matty’s fault Rotherham going down despite record summer signing. You trust Matty to work on an even smaller budget, harder to attract players to Rovers than Rotherham. What ever fits your agenda. Our ramshackle stadium can't help attract players but guess it's the money offered that really matters.

Without that season we’d have missed out on seeing Gas legends like Adam Cunnington, Bradley Goldberg and Anthony Wall gracing the Mem I strangely enjoyed the conference season even with that footballing talent you’ve mentioned. However the relief when manse slotted that pen in my opinion is & will remain the most important moment in gas history. That Manse moment nearly killed me.If he missed I'd be phoning the Samaritans and if he scored I'd be running down Stafford High Street naked.Manse runs up and my wife says,'Could you order Mum some name labels now she's in a Care Home and if you order more than 50 it's cheaper'.Manse scores and I said ' You can have 5 million ....... labels.'No need for that ' she said. No soul that was the trouble but such a moment was totally lost on my beloved.I cried.

Biggest moment was when Alfreton visited us.An elderly fan became very emotional and said,'I have never dreamt we'd be playing Big teams like this'.

Sit with a former Exeter City director at Beer Albion.He reminded me they were in the Conference for 6 seasons.I'd forgotten that!!!

Remember all the funny videos they produced back then too. I remember jack gosling getting plaudits for becoming Gibraltars record goal scorer. We won in the last minute at Mansfield with a Snakey header.Goz came on as sub and beat 89 defenders with a mazy run.Jermaine Easter was sent off and our goalie dived three minutes after the ball hit the net for their goal.An ex City player,Nicky Hunt, was constantly fouling off the ball but was eventually sent off. We had an 8' 12" Dutch goalie too who used to do a spectacular drive after the ball had hit the back of the net.Jordi Van Stapperhoef or something.

Recall the fog nearly causing the abandonment of the game at Nuneaton.Best ref by a mile that season but think they have folded now?.Sat with Tom Parkes parents before the game in their clubhouse. Tommy Locks and Monkhouse were brill at Telford.Jake Gosling went on a mazy run which was worthy of a Brazilian but hardly had a kick for the rest of the game. Lovely ground but they too have slumped. Will Puddy was less than brilliant that day but like at Nuneaton we got all three points.

Recall not long after their demise from the Prem they came to the Mem and were less than complimentary on their first visit.One of their fans said ,'It's like being in Chernobyl'.

I agree look what DC inherited at Cheltenham, what was it no points and no goals? And now he’s on the brink of keeping them up! Did he moan about a sh** squad? Some can manage and some can’t, although the players a bunch of cants for letting this happen. All pretty standard I’m afraid in the Rovers circle of life 😤. UTFG! All starts from the top...the club is run poorly, not very ambitious with any of its plans, they can say we are aiming for championship but the stadium plans will prove that they are not serious enough. Nothing about Bristol Rovers really blows me away and gets me really thinking we are going places. Thus it has always been sadly.Feel now like I did when we dropped out of the league.

Liam Sercs scored today and voted M O M.Why the heck did BG allow a player of his quality to leave? We have so little quality now.

On Monday I will be at Beer Albion FC.Players don't get paid ,give everything and clearly love their club.Have reached the Devon Cup Final too.£3 includes an excellent Match Day programme and Raffle ticket, parking ,seated covered accommodation and I simply enjoy it so much more than watching our dis-interested players. Reckon the savings are a factor too.

Attempt missed. Brandon Aguilera (Bristol Rovers) left footed shot from outside the box misses to the left following a corner.
