If they lose to Burton Saturday they will be bottom 3. Dare we dream? Yea, why not, not doing anything else.

All this City hatred is a little bit alien to me in some respects. I am not from Bristol so I have never felt the need to hate 'them down the road'. Don't get me wrong. I want them to fail more than ever now. When I was a kid, growing up in the heart of Somerset, your local team was chosen on a whim. You either liked the colour red or the colour Blue. On those grounds could you decide which team to support. I never really got into the Gas until I was 16. Bristol was too far to go by bus so I never went to any games. My decision to choose Rovers was probably my brothers. I came home on leave from the navy and asked him what we were doing at the weekend and he said we were going to Eastville. Fair enough. His reason for choosing Rovers was probably that a mutual friend was the son of a Gas Legend (George Petherbridge's son, Terry). I sat next to Terry when he first joined our primary school and remember laughing at his strange sport shirt - blue and white quarters. It was his Dad's old one. Anyway, Rovers was chosen and I never really worried about City. I've even been to watch them at Wembley. My ex brother-in-law was a ted and I went along for the booze up. It was so memorable that I couldn't even tell you who won! The only thing I remember is two girls, fans of the other team, joined in a group photo and suddenly bared their breasts!! (much better than the 11 tits that were playing in red that day!!). Right, now to my point. Snakegate has changed my opinion about City. Not so much about the team but about their owner and manager. I am now convinced that Snakey's move to them had nothing to do with football. It was like being a kid again. We had something better than they had and although they didn't want him, they just didn't want us to have him. All that 'Welcome to Bristol' ,' Playing football at a higher standard' (yeah right, sat on the bench all the game yesterday), Pantsdown's statement that he wanted to name Bristol Rovers to disappear all point to a man with more money than sense. I don't blame Taylor totally for what he did. He is 27, probably Div 1 was his real level, and if some mug offers you a huge amount of money (knowing your career could end tomorrow) then you'd be a fool not to go. It was the way he went, at the very last moment, not really giving us a chance to find a replacement. It was a vindictive, childish, nasty way to do business and for that I hate the City setup. I wish them nothing but failure. Revenge is a dish best served cold and I am prepared to wait. All of this has made me even more appreciative of DC and Wael and Hamer. UTG Feck me, a member of the Senior Service who can post in a lucid manner ( ), seriously a good post my matelot buddy.

Absolutely as I was when reading their forum as they lost to Villa. Without doubt though not beating Burton Saturday will lead to the biggest melt down seen and I for one can't wait as ready to water myself laughing

He must be an expert at giving Pantsdown head, well I suppose he would be with all the practice hes been getting. Taylor running out at the Mem next year what a thought that is, in fact I'm getting a semi just thinking about it!

Its okay he's going for a career change from next Monday, he's going to become a mushroom lumberjack.
