I've had it confirmed by a player, it's not a Gas Chat myth. Did they confirm what poo? I mean, it could Badger. Need to do this. (For the record I scored 100%. I know my sh**). www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/quizzes/who-did-the-poo

I don't really understand what the problem with the fox sh** is. Surely if you're first out on a field in the morning and you see some sh** on the pitch you clear it up coz you don't want it all over you in the middle of a sliding tackle, and you wouldn't want that to happen to any of your teammates. Can't think of all the stuff I've cleared off of a pitch on a Sunday morning with a hangover before a pub match. It's just a fact of life, espeically in Bristol which is supposed to have an exceptional fox population. Genuinely don't see what the problem is. If a professional footballer thinks the club should send out some sort of dedicated fox sh** spotter and cleaner-upper of a morning coz they are too precious to deal with it, then I'd suggest the problem is with them, not the club. I mean, it's a bit of fox sh**, ffs. Where the f**k are foxes supposed to sh**? In the woods; like Bristol bears; and the Pope.

You can’t imagine Man City’s training ground having the same issue can you? I’m with you in that on a personal level I’d be happy to just clear it up myself, but these are professional footballers we’re talking about. And their ego will mean they think doing that is below them. A fox doesn't choose where to poo based on the quality of the football training facility though does it? It's not a protest by the fox against the owners. It hasn't assessed the surroundings and thought "No cryogenic chamber - this is getting dumped on". It's absurd to say Man City won't have the same problem, I'm sure they probably have urban foxes and cats they probably pay a bloke full time to keep it clean or keep them away. Can you imagine the carry on if we paid a fulltime poo man? Particularly now we've got Nichols off the books. People trying to make out like this was ever an issue about the standards of the club are the sort of foot stamping man-babies who want everything yesterday. Frankly Twentyman should have just asked the caller what he expected the club to do and why.

To be fair I'm not sure how you keep a fox off a school sports field, I guess even a private school has better things to spend their money on than fox proof fencing. I assume at the training ground we'll have a groundsman on daily fox poo watch before the players arrive.

And finally people realize why the new training ground is where it is. Urban foxes will not traipse over there. One even rang Twentyman and said; ''Bugger that for a game of soldiers, Geoff, d'you know what I mean, I mean to say, I like my dump as much as the next fox, but go all the way over there? - No chuffin way, Geoff. Sorry for the language, but I feels strong about this. It's an assault on my vulpine rights.''

It's me that's making the mess. Too many hot chilli sauce and pastrami 20 layer sandwiches. It plays havoc on the insides. And that chocolate pudding I like for afters - well, what a mess.

Anything has got to be better than regularly moving fox sh** at Cribbs? I can't wait for the new stadium thread were posters are questioning if we're using the correct pile drives, steel work, concrete, electric cabling etc, etc. Where did this fox crap thing come from? The fox’s bottom?

Blimey on our school field at about 7.30 every morning when I arrived I used to walk around the field with a doggie bag clearing the fox **** before the children arrived at school and I was the b***** headteacher. One of the unwritten job specifications in deepest Dorset!! 😀 UTG!

I do hope that the club start to share pictures through the website. I can't understand why they aren't already.

I know this is the first project (of note) that Rovers have undertaken in years but there’s not much to see currently. When buildings start to go up it will be more interesting. When I went by yesterday there was a bloke with his head stuck in the fence, somebody had put a note on his arse which said KICK ME 81. Must be some sort of code.

Lazy lot on here. After AF has gone to the trouble of posting a link, nobody has followed it - or did you all fail miserably? Got 4 out of 5 myself

I’m sure Almondsbury has its quota of resident country Foxes without any of the feral Bristol urbanites having to make their way there. I should imagine that, when they’re not being chased by strange humans in fancy Dress on horseback, the resident country Foxes will relish the opportunity to have a nocturnal dump on the smooth, lush cultivated greensward to be found at The Colony. I think I might join them one evening, just for the experience.
