Look I know he's an ex 82er and all that but why are there a few happy about someone losing their job who has absolutely nothing to do with us, what about his family, yeah I'm sure he's got a few quid but still Agreed - but it would have been great fun to have some banter with him later. I remember when Danny Wilson came to the Mem a few years back and was given the expected treatment and took it all in good humour. Top bloke.

Sacked by Fleetwood. That’s a shame, I was looking forward to his warm welcome at the Mem later in the season.

It was 17th September 1966. I was 6 years old and just getting into football after the World Cup win.
My grandfather, who lived within earshot of Eastville Stadium and used to tell me about the legendary 'Eastville Roar', asked me if I wanted to go to a game. Shortly afterwards, tickets for that home fixture against Swindon arrived; for him, my Cousin - and me!
My parents bought me the obligatory bobble hat, scarf, rattle and rosette, and suitably attired we made the short trip to the ground to take our seats in the South Stand. We won the match 3-0 and I can still remember the way the stand seemed to sway with the noise from the crowd when we scored.....and I was hooked. From then on I would badger my Dad every Saturday morning to take me to matches, which happily he did...
Been going ever since - sadly my Grandfather, Dad and Cousin are no longer with us, but I go with my youngest son - so that's 4 generations of the family supporting the Rovers over the last 57 years or so. And long may it continue. Wouldn't change a thing.

A quality interview from a quality man. A hard and emotional read. A true Gas legend who will always be welcome back.

I once made the dizzy heights of the Bridgwater & District Sunday League in the late 1980s, goalkeeper for Berrow Athletic. Sadly my career ended after a dozen or so games when a lump of a Bridgwater Pub Team centre-foward damaged a couple of my ribs when I dived at his feet.
I did, however, play in Europe at an annual works tournament - Germany (twice), Belgium, Netherlands, France, and Switzerland.
All great fun and plenty of drinks……

I've been looking at some of the objections and some of them are simply ludicrous. One complaining about 'football chanting' at a football ground (!) and the effect on 'flora and forna' (sic). Others are simply comedy gold with some comments clearly cut and pasted from other objections. Obviously a co-ordinated campaign.
