where has all this hotel stuff come from, all I've heard about is the stadium.... is there actually any truth or is it Chinese whispers again? Check out this pdf for mention of a hotel: Commercial hotel development providing up to 200 beds over 3 and 4 storeys with 220 car parking spaces pink building to the left of the stadium development on page 7

SH did indeed say there was a plan B, but that "we don't really like discussing it.".

bristolroverssc.co.uk/2017/02/13/sad-news/Bristol Rovers Supporters Club Committee were very saddened to learn today of the passing of Jean Shaw, a long-standing member of the Supporters Club. Jean was a ‘fixture’ on our coaches to Rovers away games right up until the very end of her life although she had not been well recently. In recent years Jean has helped out in the Bristol Room at home games with our coach bookings and 50/50 Draw. Jean’s husband, Ralph, was our Coach Steward for many years and served on the Committee covering away travel until his death. Jean was always at his side. Coach ONE will never be the same again. Jean will be sorely missed by all who knew her and on behalf of the Committee I wish to express our sincere condolences to Jean’s family and her many friends at Rovers. Rest in Peace Jean and may you be reunited with your beloved Ralph once more in ‘Rovers Heaven’. Jim Chappell, BRSC Chairman.

Hopefully this may mean that others living abroad, old and new fans alike, may be able to watch their beloved Rovers. So even if I have to placate her indoors by taking a holiday in the footy season, I can still watch on, happy days.

At the end of the day Taylor owes us jack! He has been a great player for BRFC. We move on. I'm guessing if the fee is "undisclosed" it will be minimal, as no one from Rovers will want to be embarrassed. If the fee is published, it may just be a good bit of business.

I have felt a bit uncomfortable with fans bumming him before he'd hardly kicked a ball for us and the cringy "super Charlie Colkett chant". That being said he does have obvious quality, just needs to impose himself more on a game and become more consistent. Flashes of brilliance are all well and good but need to do the basics too. I'm sure he will keep on improving. Why on earth would the fans be bumming him? oooh doesn't bare thinking about

Do you know what? I really don't give a monkeys on the particualr formation we play with. Up until about 6 games ago, whichever formation we utilised, we played great football, along the ground to feet. It was a joy to watch, fast, incisive, delicate at times, but always producing results. I also appreciate we have been a little flakey at the back all season. BUT WHAT THE HELL HAS HAPPENED? Sundays game was the epitome of the last 6 or 7, no movement from players, no urgency to play, lumping that damned crossfield ball high in the air from left back to front right, or right back to front left. For Gods sake, we were playing a bunch of overtall mutants last Sunday, they picked off everything, Why have we reverted back to that crud? Why when the last 2 subs were made, and Gaffers could hardly walk, wasn't he taken off? If everyone in the crowd could see it, why couldn't the bench?
What has changed and why? Any ideas?
Its the same group of players that were playing great football earlier in the season. It is clear to me, that something else is going on behind the scenes. I just don't know what.

Lympstone gas I am so disappointed, what a missed opportunity:
get the wide men flying up and down the pitch and not ducking out of tackles should have read get the wide men flying up and down the wings and not ducking out of tackles

Rovers are certainly wearing their GPS vests during a game, so data is available virtually immediately.

So... has anyone else spotted the new (6?) sprinklers along the edge of the pitch?, granted they haven't been used for the last couple of games due to the weather, but saw them in action a few weeks ago.

You can just click the "Skip Survey" at the bottom of the survey. Ta Da.

Stood on East Terrace v Crawley, and amongst people around me, we thought crowd was 3500, Thathers end, was no where near as packed as normal, there were large areas with no supporters at either end, East terrace wasn't crowded, seats opposite, had a fair few empty seats, South stand virtually no-one, new stand empty bar about 10 hardy souls, Family enclosure empty, couldn't see Dribild stand.
