Nice one everyone  Plug for the 10k run pinned at the top of the board: I'm sure there are many other people who can be helped by the Darren Wright Foundation and we'll obviously keep the JustGiving page open through to the 10k in May. So if you've still got a spare tenner or whatever burning a hole in your pockets then I'm certain the lovely folks at the Foundation can find a use for it! Good luck to Oskar and his Ma from here on in |

Fantastic news, I know he captured hearts of Gasheads at the home game he came along to as a special guest.
Rovers and City fans must make a point of doing more joint charity work. It unites Bristolians.

It unites Bristolians. Totally agree Stapleton - a joint charitable cause between the fans of both Bristol Clubs, each season would be a great way forward  |

Absolutely brilliant how Blue and Red come together for the important things now and again. And it must be said - congratulations on your season, i hope we finish the job off next month and have plenty to celebrate ourselves. |

'And it must be said - congratulations on your season, i hope we finish the job off next month and have plenty to celebrate ourselves.' Thankyou FFSC - and with good manners I hope for the true blues you get out of that place. Don't get me wrong I'm as red as you are all blue (and all that brings !) but above all I'm Bristolian and I'm a football fan and it's a much better City with two Clubs moving in the right direction. We feel that we've won the lottery at the moment with a passionate manager (Who has surprised me in numerous ways) and a set of players that are wholly committed , no big time Charlie's, play the game in the 'right way', look as if they are enjoying every minute ( us of many years on terraces know how rare and pleasant this is - Rovers historically probably producing spirited dressing rooms more regularly than us) and the absolute bonus is some of the , if not the best, football I've seen in 40 odd years. Many gas prob felt earlier this season like I did 2yrs ago (under SOD ) where I felt after 40 plus years of, mainly disappointment, trailing to Carlisle, Colchester & Crew ,and with my club seemingly inhabited by (generally) overpaid Charlie's,enough is enough and for this and some health issues stopped going 2 years down the line Imfeel incredibly invigorated by this squad and manager - it's restored my faith in football a bit !! My message , a reminder to the blue half how quickly fortunes can change (cue a end of season collapse !) and the returns are much better than the drop On a secondary note - I'm in no rush, even if it became a realistic chance of seeing my club in the PL - I bet a lot of Rovers fans have actually thoroughly enjoyed their season haven't they ? The further you get away from the PL Circus the more real the football in many ways Your run in is likely to be a bit more tense and in many ways more important than ours so good luck  |
