The unmistakable voice of Nick Day spoke to Gasheads over a period of 25 years and he chatted to Jack about how he first got the gig, the eccentric Keith Valle, what makes a good PA announcer, his memories both on and off the field, life after the role and we even get treated to that famous line of his. listen.gascastpodcast.co.uk/276671/3739745-a-chat-with-nick-day

Has any one looked into how South Korea have re-opened there league? Different level of football but surely they face the same issues. Not looked into this myself yet just wondering if anyone else has?. They learned the lessons from SARS and implemented track and trace.

Fair amount of signings under DC who could have been very exciting but just didn’t work for one reason or another. Hiram Boateng Jake Clarke Salter Mensah Bennett Holmes-Dennis: through no fault of his own, if he was fit I’m very confident he’d be one of the best fullbacks in the league. Was a risky signing though I would add Liam Lawrence to that list, had a good CV but clearly most of the talent and legs of his younger years had faded by the time he joined us. Holmes-Dennis is a tricky one as we've seen the talent he possesses, especially in the period that Coughlan took charge but he's been injured a lot which has held him back. Still at the club though, so could yet go on to do good things. Liam Lawrence seconded! Big name that should have been running games at this level. Aside from one postage stamp free kick at the Mem, didn't get anything out of him.

I'd have him back as a coach. Did wonders with Ellis and the Snake

56k as a kitman isn't bad is it? I'm pretty handy with the washing machine if anyone from the club is reading this...

Gibraltar's all-time top goalscorer, and double-promotion winner Jake Gosling joined Max to discuss his time at Bristol Rovers. Jake talks about the key part he played in the National League season, from those difficult few months, to the highs of Wembley. He also talks about the challenges of going on loan, and how important it was to hit the ground running upon his return. Jake shares insights into the differences between playing against Nuneaton one week, and World Cup winners Germany the next, as well as the moment he became Gibraltar's all time top goalscorer. This was a great chat, with some interesting dressing room stories and reflections on memorable moments - enjoy! Support the show (https://patreon.com/gascast) listen.gascastpodcast.co.uk/276671/3455098-a-chat-with-jake-goslingThe pod cast is always good but I had to look this up as couldn't believe he would still be their top goalscorer. And looking at it, it looks like Casciaro is. Yep. As soon as Max had finished recording he noticed he'd cocked that one up. This is why the Sky/BBC aren't snapping us up for our own show. At least that's what I tell myself

Its certainly my hope that out of this football and society make changes for the better. On the football side I hope that clubs aren't allowed to be run as the mad houses as they are currently making silly losses every year. Player wages are huge part of that. Could a salary cap work? For society I think we all have had a bit of a home truth that there are a lot of 'low-skilled' workers who keep this country running. Its not the bankers or the celebrities that matter. Its times like this it really hits hard how much the NHS means to us too. AND before I go all Jeremy Corbyn I really hope that we all remember which businesses and billionaires treated their staff badly through all of this and it comes back to bite them when we're back to 'normal'. The FFP rules are already a salary cap. Capping the level of earnings of individuals would be illegal. Forgot about FFP. Probably because it's about as effective as a chocolate tea pot

Tom, Good points pal. But do you know what, my guess is this is gonna make th big boys even bigger, i posted a few weeks ago i can see it becoming similar to USA Sports, heavily franchised a big 32 and th rest will go part time. A bit like Major League Baseball and th Minor Leagues work. You can guarantee th powers that be are already discussing it as 'the best long term solution for all' .
Keep up th good work on th Pod Casts my friend an thank you an th other guys.
I fear you might be right. Chuck in 'good for the England team' and its guaranteed to be implemented! Thanks for listening and hope your mum is happier with the reduced swearing

And that was kind of my point, no one knows what will happen. But because there’s nothing else to write about at the moment this stuff is getting written and no matter how well written it is just conjecture. The point is well made but not only do they not know what will happen in football the government has no idea what will happen with CV. They are making it up as they go along, day by day. Now is not the time to do it but the stuff over testing and PPE will come back to haunt this government. And some of the things said by ministers in these daily briefings will, in time, be proved to be completely untrue and heads will roll. Sorry, I know this isn’t the place to spout politics but the fact remains no one knows the end place for this. Once an antidote, a vaccine is found that will be the game-changer and things will then change rapidly but until that we just don’t know. And by the way 365 I agree with what you’ve said except where you say “I love it”. I don’t and I’m not sure anyone does. Life is bigger than football. UTG! I love the football fall out, I mean, it’s the one bright spot of coronavirus for me. Football has been allowed to grow despicably greedy and this virus is the absolute slap in the face it has been wanting all along. I agree on the politics too- once this is all over I fully expect a “day of reckoning” for many bodies: premier league, current government, airlines etc. Society is going to change— much for the better I feel. Its certainly my hope that out of this football and society make changes for the better. On the football side I hope that clubs aren't allowed to be run as the mad houses as they are currently making silly losses every year. Player wages are huge part of that. Could a salary cap work?

Excellent stuff. Glad to hear that Martyn is over the worst of the virus and less importantly that the recruitment is still ongoing

This week, Jack is joined my Mets and Max to discuss the future of the 2019/20 season, and the financial impact on Rovers. They cover the latest proposals from the EFL to form a group of representatives from each league, and discuss whether a blanket 20% pay reduction for players is a realistic outcome. They also talk about the Al-Qadi ownership, and the ongoing dispute with the Supporters Club, who had it's complaint to the EFL swiftly rejected last week.

I'm going to listen to this again this morning.
Listen I miss his post match analysis so much. It's not rocket science he was an entertaining guy and would always dust himself down for the next one.

Before anyone jumps in on this and reveals him I can say he will absolutely NOT want that. Nothing to hide but he's a private person and I doubt he gave up that information lightly. I know him and he has no agenda bar wanting the gas to do well. Is that right? Well your last sentence equally applies to the SC and the PC and plenty of posters on here who absolutely can’t abide our current owners because of what they believe they are doing to the FC they love. So it’s alright to stay anonymous as long as you agree with them is it? Looks like I've wandered into a complete bin fire here with everyone on a side. I won't speak for him so up to you to decide if he has a dastardly agenda or is the reincarnation of Nick Higgs or whatever. Same goes for myself. Not taking a side as everyone seems to have made themselves look a right tit.

I must be missing something in that Twitter thread. Two senior figures were discussing the club and their opinions on finances, the owners, and players. It wasn't very positive. OK. They were opinions. Someone else heard the call. Perhaps they shouldn't have? Perhaps KM felt they should have? It's not exactly treason. WHO is the person who heard the call hiding behind the Avin_Oops moniker? Before anyone jumps in on this and reveals him I can say he will absolutely NOT want that. Nothing to hide but he's a private person and I doubt he gave up that information lightly. I know him and he has no agenda bar wanting the gas to do well.
