How do you know the format, all I've read is that it's a Zoom meeting where you need to be invited? It could just be 10 or 20 hand picked fans all allowed to ask a question, there's been no suggestions so far fans invited need to present their questions to the panel ahead of the forum? It says: To register your interest in asking a question at Friday's event, which will be conducted on Zoom, please email media@bristolrovers.co.uk. I feel like it would be pretty mad just to get a list of prospective questioners without questions. Istm more likely that they want you to email them your question. Very straightforward. For somebody that has been using zoom for business, its a nightmare if there isn't somebody in control. WIFI delays, in and out etc. I think its great. Say 20-30 questions answered, with somebody hopefully in a position to seek further clarity to any answers if they are a bit wishy-washy...

Lance Cook is hosting the forum. Now if the invite 20-30 fans and they all asl "any news on the FM/new stadium" it'll be a quick forum meeting.

I'm presuming the email registration is so you can be sent the password to get in?
Had an open zoom call a few weeks back that someone joined and started blaring music when they joined so we had to shut it down.

Something like this stadium would do us nicely (graphics on exterior at end of video in blue obviously)!

For those who seem to not know, using Zoom the host is able to mute all other microphones.

On a good day 9302 average crowd our first season back in League One. With a new stadium and the promise of a bright future we easily get 10k.

With a new stadium and the promise of a bright future we easily get 10k. Bit of an aside but when/if we ever build a new stadium, I hope we make season tickets affordable, advertise them around the City and have schemes like buy a season ticket for a less well off supporter or gift tickets to community groups and local schools like Bradford City have done. Having a new stadium is a fantastic opportunity to grow a fanbase and although some of the things I've suggested might lose Rovers some money, it will pay off long term. No reason why we can't get over 10,000 on a regular basis at a new stadium when we're only a few thousand away from that at the mem currently.

Unfortunately, the Fruit Market location could mean we don't go anymore. We'll have to see I guess.

The fruit market site means one thing. BRFC have no other option but become direct competition with Bristol sports football dept. BCFC 1982 Ltd. The stadium site is city centre located in the same way Ashton gate is. People from all over the city will travelling the same sort of distances to reach each ground.
If the club (BRFC) think they can exist as an individual entity not dependent on the other lots success or failure they will get a big shock. A large stadium needs bums on seats so many can pick or choose what seat to sit on red or blue and that may depend on the level of football on display. The fruit market site is a bold statement of we are here to steal your market of fans.
Look at how close Nottingham forest and notts county stadiums are. Which one gets the crowds ?

I find it hard to agree with these arguments simply because all of us here and at the Mem on a Saturday are Rovers fans. Guess what, not one of us started supporting Rovers because they are/were successful because they never have been.

Guess what, not one of us started supporting Rovers because they are/were successful because they never have been. My parents first took me during one of our successful periods i.e a promotion season, whenever we do well crowds increase and I assume they all don't just stop going. Our issue will be if the 82'ers get promoted anytime soon as can Bristol really support 50,000 football fans, nearly 30,000 at AG and another 20,000 at the AG, when only around half that number have chosen to watch live football in the recent years in Bristol?
