We might all be surprised to hear that last season was Rovers best season since 1975 crowd wise. Averages can be tilted by a few big crowd games to make things seem better. As can gauging the seasons highest attendance. For me its the lowest league crowd of the season thats the measure of how well the club is supported. Last seasons lowest gate of 8078 was the highest since 1975 then back to 1962 for the next better season. Our greatest season was 1954 with 19,638 as the lowest gate. Last season was our 15th best season ever. That for me is something we should be very positive about considering we finished 17th in league one in a very limited stadium. Really Interesting post. Quite amazing really and very surprising! As you say really positive about the depth of support. At the time lots of noise about supporters not coming to game's because of Barton. My big take out is there are lot of people in Bristol that don't go and watch professional sport but are interested in doing so. The same people would like to do so sat down in a decent stadium. However, they absolutely do not want to follow a plastic generic sports team with a stolen identity! Build it and they will come they say! Really hope Rover's new owner's spend big and do a proper job with a new stand on the East side. Massive stand with loads of seats and decent corporate boxes.

Excited for this one!
In 30 years following Rover's off to St James's Park for the first time.
How have I never been before! I shall be on the 10:54 from Temple Meads
Revenge needed for the worst home game of the season!
Expect to see first clean sheet and comfortable win!
Red & white Stripes 0 - Gas 3

I see we've turned down a bid of Ā£600k from Bolton. Interesting. Where? Got a link?

At least we don't we don't have Bell-end in goal to throw all the points away both home and away this season! Home game vs Exeter last season marked the end of anything to play for last season in my view.

Got to stop Dembele today.
One of the best footballers in league 1. Stop him and you will stop the supply to the striker's and we will win.
Think he needs to be man-marked today!

Looking forward to Exeter away. First time St James's Park. If the away end is S close as everyone says it will be a lot of fun! š

Gonna bump this. When does his contract run out? The 26th I think. It's the 27th his contact expires. If we'd gone to Liverpool he was out of contract but for Oxford he is in contact.

His Porsche has been spotted up Cribbs today... Number plate JCH 451... Let the meltdown/rumour mill start. His Girlfriend lives at Portishead & the pair of them have gone shopping at Cribbs. Mini Story over. Now back to the JCH signing / not signing saga

My take-out from watching the BBC this evening..
1) I prefer Cox to the lad from Bath who looked really flappy. 2) Looking at the pitch I'm really glad that the Rugby has F*cked off to BS3

I know there's a lot of noise from the supporters around the goal-keeping at the moment but I don't see it as the biggest problem.
The defence is the issue. We have barely had the same unit together game to game. Crama, Taylor & Beefy are all just as young as Cox & Ward. All the experienced players in to help have all been injured. I do think we have been a bit unlucky with that.
Cox's is kicking needs to improve but he was brought in on the philosophy that we were playing it out from the back. His general goal-keeping is no better or worse than any other keeper in League one. This is & will be his level for the next 4 or 5 seasons.

You are right! Perhaps I should have said 'fair weather supporters'. The ones who come out of the woodwork when things are looking good, but don't come along when things are going badly. As posted above it's hard to understand why nearly 10,000 turned up last night, we'll probably get to the ground on Wednesday and find it half empty as it was Liverpool fans buying the tickets!! It could also be the cost! A lot want to come but justify the Ā£27.00 to stand on the Clubhouse terrace week in week out.

Seems like half of you arenāt looking in the right place? Donāt go into the game, go into your profile / manage tickets:reserved tickets Others with terrace have confirmed itās there Percy Definitely wasnāt anything reserved in my or sons profile when I bought both ours (7.20ish) had to buy them as if just buying for a normal game This for me also

Bit unnecessary Topper
The easiest way to double check something especially if you are not that ofay with some of the detail in technology is check with multiple people who are like minded. Which is what I did. Afterall this is a forum for discussion. Au fait my friend Thank you for the correction as I was VERY wrong when I checked! .

I wanted Seats but could only see Terrace so have had to go with terrace. I don't believe that all seats were gone in 30 mins.
Also the "network" linking of season ticket's disappeared & I had to put that back together again.
