Let's do this, come on Rovers, come on you Blues...

Can I ask whether those forecasting doom are doing so based on the knowledge that nothing good ever happens to Rovers, or is it based on some information?
From the outside, the club being bought by a wealthy businessman who wants to build the UWE doesn't seem like the end of the world?
I genuinely don't think Nick Higgs would sell the club down the river.

Why do you 'hope it's not true' if the buyers have money?!

Strange to think today will definitely be our last game as a normal club before we become a Super Club on Monday. Presumably in a couple of weeks when Messi has joined on a loan ahead of a 5 year contract and Mourihno is our manager we'll look back at today with fondness, so let's enjoy the old Rovers on last time...

Why do I fear that the Teds will be laughing at this thread this time next week...

% chance of an announcement on Monday.
I'll start based on the previous 285 pages, 5%.

In all honesty, and to the best of my limited knowledge, I don't think I have ever swapped body fluids with any such creature from south of the river *shudder*. I did once to a South Bristol girl tbh, she was a dirty little minx too.... I shudder when I think about!!! Clicked onto this thread to see the latest (usually made up) update on the (imaginary) takeover and read down to this... Refreshing light relief on a Friday!

He'll go back there, score no goals in 6 games, get dropped and we'll have him back again in mid-March.
Thereafter, he'll score 3 in 12 games for us including a goal in the home play off sem,i but unfortunately won't get on the pitch for the play final victory.
We'll then decide to pursue other opportunities in the summer, he'll then have a couple of average years in lower leagues before going back to Ireland, playing part time, coaching a local u17's team on a Tuesday and buy into a sports bar in Gallway.
In other words, unless he comes back now, it's all downhill.

I think the Today's the day/any day now posts get funnier every time some smart a$$ posts it. The most frustrating thing is that 1% of me (down from 50% when we had the first 'today's the day' posting which seems like it was 25 years ago) actually believes it because I want it so much!

That reads to me like he's confirming he's in discussions but is unable to state it clearly. Agreed.

Now living in Hong Kong so will be listening online.
I'm assuming the radio rights for League 2 haven't been sold locally out here...

So, UWE build stadium. We sell the Mem for £15m, pay off the debts of £5m (?) and have £10m to invest in stadium to Rovers'afiy it. If rent is reasonable and we sign a very long lease it seems like a decent outcome? Is that £1.5m still available?!

Quite right. Too busy talking about the friendly versus the Mangos to promote a game versus one of the biggest teams in the world.

Post by gasoline on Jul 12, 2015 8:01:35 GMT
Plan B - We toddle on like we always have, being mediocre in a rubbish stadium....and secretly not really minding it because it's all we've ever known. Nail hit on the head! We'll have some debts to repay etc, the directors will stamp their feet and leave and we'll be threatened with administration. We'll get bought by some bunch of cowboys who screw us over and finally we all have to pay £2k to buy the club back in 2024. In the meantime, we'll bump along towards the bottom of league 2.
