Oh god.... Not this nonsense again please Optimism has always worked for me. I hope we've got some in the dressing room. The bus does look nice but a bit soulless without passengers. It would be a shame if we didn't go on one hell of a ride this season. I'm hopeful that we will have enough about us to make a sustained effort. You are free to jump on, once we get going. |

Gawd, it's like a broken record. Entirely predictable and expected. Made me smile and irritated me in equal portions. No offence Rich but please don't shove this down our throats every week. Less can be more! I'm optimistic for the season but not likely to hop on your bus. . I try not to offend. I agree, less is more. I do hope we get into a position where your optimism is backed up by sustained success on and off the pitch. In fact, so much team success that you are likely to hop on not wanting to miss out. Oh I think you'll find you can if you try hard enough.... |

How did that work out for you last season? Seriously your metaphorical bus went of a cliff last season, is it not time to just leave it there? |

I can't stop myself. I try not to offend. I agree, less is more. I do hope we get into a position where your optimism is backed up by sustained success on and off the pitch. In fact, so much team success that you are likely to hop on not wanting to miss out. Oh I think you'll find you can if you try hard enough.... I know you are right. Logically and rationally I could stop right now but emotionally I find it hard to stop this thread and my ramblings. Some seem to like it. |

I stayed optimistic but events brought it to an abrupt end. We might have failed but we bounce back. Should I stop this thread now? I'm not keen. Hope we get of to a good start. If we do you might hop on the new bus! |

Kind of reminds me of the final episode of the Young Ones.........
This season the wheels will stay firmly on!

Just for giggles. I do not believe this will happen, Rich! All aboard! A few early victories and it will be hard to stop fans jumping on this bus. We would be in dreamland if the results go our way and we actually have gas heads waiting and looking for the ground breaking bus. I can crank the bus up anytime! |

Some seem to like it. I like it. Partly because it keeps you happy and does no harm and partly because it annoys the hell out of some people. A few wins Rich and all the haters will be wanting a ticket. |

Information for those who might need it... I generally smile, make too much eye contact and gently pat the empty seat next to me. Works every time. |

Thanks for the humour. My feeling - if we carry on playing the way we are, and performance turns into a number of consecutive victories it might well be standing room only on the bus. Maybe we don't let bibles, heavy bags, wet umbrellas, small children on the bus so everybody has seats. Canes might be useful to keep people on if we lose a game! |

So keeping all the ground breaking goal chat together. I've been looking at the August fixtures in the Vanarama Conference (let's hope for one season only) and remember all those years ago when Halifax were relegated and we stayed up. We play them on the 30th August and so with six games in August can we expect 18pts. I guess unlikely but of course would be ground breaking for us.
Grimsby - with all the free children and quite a few watching it live it would be a shame to send the children home disappointed. So that's a win then!
Barnet - we can get three points here on a Tuesday night surely. I hope to be there, with a bit of luck.
Altrincham Telford can we get points against these two. Let's say we struggle and only pick up two points
Forest G. - good local derby - we take 3 points
And now on to Halifax. Could be a difficult game but we would have learnt more about pass and move and the team are focused. let's just say we scrape by the odd goal - another three points
So by 5pm on 30 august we might have 14 pts. I think we would all be happy with that. Our best start to a season for some while.
Some can dream and we certainly could do with a good start. Some might take 12pts as a good start. One things for sure, if we do better than 14pts, we might have some early dreamers boarding the bus. Can we get to 14pts or more from six games? What a start that would be.
Let's hope we strengthen the squad and get to September, with everyone, on and off the field working together and believing that this season we can erase the feeling of last May.
I think that we are all looking forward now to what could be and might well be a successful season that Bristol Rovers Football Club and our long suffering fans might not forget.

I've just seen the points west clip. More motivated than ever. KP was upbeat about our prospects and why not.
I can see that DC has a few ground breaking thoughts of his own. He does sound inspiring and has lots of belief and is developing a style of play that we all might like watching. If we can get some good early results we can all look forward.
DC said something like, be realistic some say but I have higher expectations than that. The players have higher expectations. We expect promotion.
That 's the language that inspires me!
Realistic goal seems not good enough for DC. Sounds like he might be on the bus already. Happy times just round the corner.
