We should be adding Solar Panels to all roof top areas. Will save the club a fortune. As a group of fans, we are becoming more 'green'. Remember the rainbow at Peterborough home game, lovely. Owl spotting at half time would be a right hoot. You previously suggested the South Stand was a disaster waiting to happen and would collapse with a bit of bad weather and now you want loads of solar panels piled on top - is it now a safe structure then? Never once suggested the stand would fall down.

Such as? I don't really understand why there is such hatred of him and TG on a personal level. Disagreeing on and critiquing what they do is one thing, but it's crossing a line for me. They're both useless. Christ, they released a video for a new stadium that they had no plans for, no agreement on, nothing. They're both beyond parody at this point. Absolute bozos. This should really have caused an uprising. It was a shocking ploy to sell more season tickets. It really was taking the p.iss out of the fans.

Greens run Bristol now …. Expect all sorts of additions in the stand . Owl boxes - solar panels - seats made from cardboard etc.. We should be adding Solar Panels to all roof top areas. Will save the club a fortune. As a group of fans, we are becoming more 'green'. Remember the rainbow at Peterborough home game, lovely. Owl spotting at half time would be a right hoot.

I don’t know for a fact. Just my opinion from reading it that it’s pretty obvious. Maybe, but it's still speculation. Not aimed at you, but this is just how rumours get out of hand, one person's "maybe" becomes and Internet fact within a few posts and before we know it, there are calls for sackings. TG has probably passed something on that he shouldn't have. As a CEO, you have a duty to not send that email. No CEO will think good things will come from sharing that.

Name who wrote and sent the email, or is it all innuendo as usual? id like to know,I’m sure others would also 👍🏾 I don’t know for a fact. Just my opinion from reading it that it’s pretty obvious. I'll have a fiver on Abdullatif.

My theory is:
SC emails TG TG emails Owners Owners email TG TG forwards to SC SC publish
The reason that the tweet got deleted is that TG has got himself into a pickle with the owners by forwarding their response to him. I don't think they thought that he would be sharing that response.
The response to a private email is the response from the owner to him, rather than his response to the SC being a private email.

What part of the ground is £549? The East Stand, I assume the West Stand would also be the same price if any tickets were still available. Just looking on their site: Rybrook Shrewsbury West Stand / Block 16 £520, not £460.

Absolutely no surprise as the clubs back office recruitment standards are pathetic. If this response however did come from a Senior Official they need a wake up call - Sadly I am not surprised by this lack of awareness ! Sounds to me that it was a typical "private" email sent by TG, baffling why the SC thought it was OK to post it on their website whoever it was from. A CEO with that level of English launguage use, should be jailed. Calling the grammar police now.

Well known ex Gas striker incoming ? Maybe the idea was created at Cheltenham. The realisation that the Matty Taylor abuse was not at him...

I took a hammering on here from a poster a few weeks back for the “odd” criticism of TG replying to emails but not offering adequate communications to supporters. Well here you go. This is why it’s a problem and not the professionally done thing. It does feel a little, well 'naive' that a response to the supporters club was a response to the sender of the email,rather than a response to the supporters club members.

What we need to remember is that although Rovers is OUR club, between us WE don’t contribute anywhere near enough to keep it afloat. We are, and always have been, reliant on benefactors. If I were a club owner spunking a few million pounds a year I would expect to be able to have a significant input into the way it’s run, and wouldn’t think it unreasonable to ask the people I am keeping the club alive for to help out a little bit. I’m not saying they should be immune from criticism, but there is a bigger picture here. The balance is surely fans paying a reasonable amount per season v fans being milked? I've just looked at Shrewsbury Town website and the price for a similar s/t is £460 whereas mine is now £549 w/o the early bird discount plus £15 if I wanted a season ticket card. What part of the ground is £549?

x.com/bristolroverssc/status/1787078704423698899?s=46Referring to those who aren’t disabled as ‘normal’ people. Absolutely disgusting. And what does our fearless leader TG come out with as an explanation?? “This was a private conversation and shouldn’t have been made public”. Now deleted the tweet. A new way to really embarrass ourselves even more. Disgrace Completely agree that the wording was incorrect and it should have been said differently. There is probably two things that doesn't excuse it but maybe explains it: 1) Translation from their native language. 2) Cultural differences. Let's not forget that not that long ago (20-30 years?), that phrase would have been acceptable in the UK. The paralympics has got a lot to do with wider acceptance in sport. We should be proud of the Woke and Snowflakes for making us all realise that this is unacceptable language.

I remember one player who we were able to convince to stay and ply his trade at the club. Anthony Evans. He was out of contract at the end of the promotion season, there was plenty of interest in him and most of us expected him to go. Lo and behold he signs a three year contract. I’m sure there will have been plenty of other players who Rovers have convinced to stay, but hey, let’s not let the facts get in the way of your argument. I would imagine JB played a massive part in him signing that contract. I reckon cold hard cash played a massive part in him signing that contract.

A reality TV football version of The Office and Fawlty Towers. I can see the reviews in my head already. "Toe-curlingly brilliant" says the Daily Star, "A masterpiece" says The Daily Sport. Should be like Prison Break. The Running Man? "I'd buy that for a dollar"

Can you tell us what he said? Is this about the 'statement' sent to the supporters club? Or something else?

Perhaps this is why he doesn’t speak publicly and only communicates one on one. What a truly awful excuse Can you tell us what he said?

I’d rather take a double relegation back to non-league than have Joey Barton represent our club again. Cheers. I'd have him back in a shot, I'd have him back to be shot. Is that an option? Disclaimer: This is obviously a joke before the JB snowflake brigade start.

I've been beating this drum now for years Somerset. We have stood still for decades with regards encouraging youngsters to the mem and allowed the majority to go down the gate. It's too late. The next generation of fans in this city are red now. And our owners seem to think that by doing nothing this will improve once we have a few more Lego stands for them to sit in and they will come flooding back. They don't understand how a fan base is built at a football club. Nope it’s really quite sad how it’s happened. It's happened as the billionaire that wanted to invest/buy the club was told he couldn't. He then thought to himself "Screw this" and then bought the local rivals.

This was dealt with at the fans forum? The East stand last season cost less than West Stand, so there was an element of catchup before any inflation type increase. Sorry how does that work when the non concession had a small increase? Also given there are less seats in West Stand there never seems to be season tickets available after take up by previous holders not sure if comparable. 2022/23 West Stand: Adults - £470 Over 65 - £390 East Stand Adults - £440 Over 65 - £310 Diff: Adults £30 Over 65 £80 2023/24 West Stand Adult - £519 Over 65 - £439 East Stand Adults- £509 Over 65 £359 Difference Adults- £10 Over 65 £80 So, the reasoning was that the prices between the West and East should be closer than they were with the East stand prices increasing. There was a bigger increase in Over 65s East stand pricing for next season as the difference in pricing between those two stands was much greater in the Over 65s. They then priced the East stand over 65's to close that gap.

When i get online tickets, i print them off on paper and use the paper copy. I have never used an app to get into a me yet. Are we going to be able to do that as that will not involve the club in any additional cost? Fairly certain you can just print off the QR/Barcode you are meant to save to your electronic Wallet and use that. If that does work just getting it laminated will save you £15. The season just gone, then yes. The season ticket was simply a QR Code. It depends if there is NFC (Near Field Communication) like when you use you bank card contactless. if so, that wouldnt work.
