That was the final of the youth cup against Carlisle if my memory serves me well. Dave Beasant was courting Matt Macey and his parents that night and shortly after got him a move to Arsenal. It was against Watford wasn't it? And it was a southern final (essentially a semi final).... I'm probably wrong because I had been up in the box a good while before the rest of you enjoying a beverage etc.... I think you may well be right on that. I can still remember the final was against Carlisle and can remember it was at the Mem. For some reason thought we sponsored that as well?Memory not that good though, cannot even remember the result. Where's GHB, the font of all knowledge when you need him?

I had lots of photo's but sadly they were lost when the Official forum was shut (my fault i should have saved them)
Good times.

There is a way of recovering the old site, but you need a specific date to track down the photos, and I'm not sure how you do it. Here is the old forum index page, some bits of which you can click on web.archive.org/web/20130923073544/http://www.brfcforum.co.uk/index.php?/forum/2-rovers-talk/And here is how you do it, sort of web.archive.org/web/20130601000000*/http://www.brfcforum.co.uk

Can remember donating the Tom Lockyer shirt I had won through the FFSC to Craig Nathanael's mate to raise money in his memory.

I’m waiting on my next round of biological chemo. I will know dates by middle of next week and if no clash then yes I would like to Be good to see you there Jules, hope you can make it. Thank you my friend. This illness has profoundly affected my life and what I’m now able to do or, rather, not do. It’s very difficult and very depressing when you see others having fun and you are stuck indoors plus making plans is largely hit or miss. I’m still waiting on my appointment. I hope you are well & happy big man

Hi guys, today is the day when the club are putting details regarding hospitality for the match on the website so I'm in a bit of a position here. To be honest I've been holding out for a 10th person but it hasn't happened, which is disappointing but there are a lot of familiar faces on holiday.... Now I need advice, and I need it quick, do I book? I don't really like the idea of trying to find a means to find £48 if there's only 9 of us, or shall I wait and hope for a tenth person and then book hoping that the match sponsor hasn't gone....
I need suggestions as I'm completely stuck and I'm not in a position to take any financial liability unfortunately....
Thanks for all the support and the bumps etc, and sorry for being crap lately....

Go ahead and book it. I'm sure we can persuade, cajole or bully another to join us.

***WE ARE BOOKED*** "No problem at all Paul – just wanted to make sure you guys were definitely going ahead – I will reserve box 11 for you now (the most central one I have available) and we can finalise numbers and take payment on the 5th August if that’s ok as I will be on holiday until the Friday beforehand? If you think you will exceed the 15, please let me know ASAP so I book out the box next to you too or I will just move you to the double box which is 17/18
I can confirm that for £40 + VAT, you will be the Match Sponsors on the evening as agreed below"
So at least that's done, we just need 1 more essential but ideally 6 more to fill the box. We've still got just under 4 weeks until payment is required, so once I've got the 'all clear' from Mr treasurer Parrot we can start taking payment. I'll sort out a relaunch with payment details when we get to the next page.... Gregs

So.... £48 to: payment via our PayPal Account - bristolroversffsc@yahoo.co.uk pay Electronically direct into our FFS Bank account - Sort Code: 40-46-18 Acc. No. 32107813 *Be sure to make clear your forum name and make reference to 'hospitality' when paying* While I'm here, Rod1883 tommym9 glostergas Kingswood Polak I can guarantee a very enjoyable evening as we've got a top bunch booked up and it would be great to see you all again and meet some new faces.... 3 1/2 weeks to go only 6 places left.... On a final note; a big thank you to parrot who always sorts the financial (responsible) stuff for us dudes, we are incredibility greatful....
