The reality with the East Stand is 1 + 2 = 1. It will not be a structure that you can see from outer space. Try and keep it real ppl.

Worthing v Bath City on Sunday could be a cracker , genuine 6 pointer. I’ll be in New Caledonia so slim pickings for me. I will try and follow the game on Bath city Radio. Time difference / hangover may scupper me though.

In my lifetime , as England never qualified for a World Cup until 1982, my childhood was spent supporting Scotland at ‘74 & ‘78 WC’s. Filling in the wall charts, watching the games, I even had a tartan scarf.

TBH if all the EFL clubs get a bigger chunk of money, invariably players wages will end up rising and there will be little net gain.

To be followed by the history of the flower beds at the Tote end.Unique. Magnifico, that was my end of the SS. Where I could keep a close eye on the Tote End shenanigans.

My dad was on the turnstiles, so i would be at the ground hours before kick off. I used to roam around the empty stadium looking under the seats for treasure. Always a good haul If there was a Speedway meet the previous night. Being dark and noisy, they couldn’t hear their pockets empty every time they leapt from their seat to see Crump or Gresham take the flag. $$$$$$$$ I knew every inch of Eastville, watching it slowly fill up on Matchday days as I read my programme twice and did my rounds. I can remember watching people use the pull down access ladder near the back of the South Stand to get into the Commentary box. I used to squander my I’ll gotten gains in the glass fronted bar at the far end of the South Stand. To this day if I ever get a whiff of old wood and tobacco……it takes me back to my happy place.

TBH I find all that gesticulating across the net absolutely childish and cringe worthy. The mistake is to make eye contact, which fuels them. I ignore the Pratts and focus on the game and getting behind my Team. I take a stealth photo of the Perps, so I can follow them home and choke them to death in their own bed. You should see the look on their face 🤣

Lincoln with a 6-0 win at home tonight, feels like it could be backs to the wall on Saturday! Yep Saturday we need to protect our -4 goal difference. #massive task

Not surprised, but when popping on to their forum to see what they they are saying about tomorrow, there seems to be a large number of Derby fans saying they have bought tickets for the home ends as they sold out so quickly. If, true, I hope they keep their mouths shut and do not cause any problems. I’ve no problem with this, as an exile it’s something you have to do every once in a while. However even if they keep their voices low surely the smell will give them away.

About 150 South Stand tickets remain. Looking like a sell out. What with a bumper crowd, I’m concerned they won’t be able to burn enough sausage rolls.

We could be a bit deviant and word it "we've opened up access on this road but don't worry no Bristol Rovers fans will have access" ;-) No dogs, Irish or gasheads maybe That’s a bit ruff, I think small dogs would be acceptable.

Hi Gasheads. Thanks for adding me, I've been a lurker for a while and this is my first post on this forum. I did last weeks Q&A but didn't get to discuss this topic From what I can gather we potentially have an extra 3 access points to the stadium that aren't in use. I know we haven't seen the stadium designs yet but it strikes me as something we should try and push through, at least while we have the mayoral role in Bristol. If we are wanting to build a bigger fanbase then this issue needs to be thought out. Strathmore road - I believe we own what is essentially a drive way to the fan zone. It could be another entrance for home fans coming from Gloucester road which will ease congestion at the main Filton avenue gates Alton road - To me this would make a perfect away fan entrance, especially when the station on Ashley down road is finished. It would give away fans a quick escape down muller road Ellicot road - If we don't sell anymore car park this would surely make sense for vehicle access. This way you avoid any congestion from Thrubshaw close as you could make thrubshaw entrance only and Ellicot exit only. Let me know what you think :-) Love it. Drop your CV off at the Mem. This is the kind of thinking that will get us to the Championship. East Stand….total rebuild or north & South clip ons?
