Former colleagues and mates involved in a friendly rivalry cup match as Cheltenham play Newport in a match that could have a major impact in our own clubs finances. A trip to Wemberley would help some way towards paying off the South Stand loans. Not going too well for DC or is it?

Way to go to motivate your team. That's just embarrassing. I think it’s easy to comment without knowing all the context of the game and how the side is playing. Before kick off Orient were in the bottom 6, and Reading had only 29% possession Saturday. This was on the way of a second away defeat on the road in a week, I guess we have to factor in time and money. What I would say is as well, we have no idea if the players are not trying for the manager and revolting in some way. Our players did this to Tisdale when we lost 6-1 to Accy, personally they were not fit to wear the shirt that night, you are still paid to do a job and the travelling fans travelled did a 400 mile round trip needing to take a half day off work. I don’t think football fans act this way unless they have a reason, you can’t just blame it on a poor side, before the game they had still won 3 and drawn 1. Something suggests to me they have stopped playing for the manager, in August they won 4-0 away against Championship Millwall. In September they beat third place Bolton 2-0 and also won 0-9 away at Exeter in the paint pot. Train to London, admission, I bet that was a £60 plus day out for the fans to see 29% possession, I’d be miffed a bit! Our 6-1 defeat was in the lock down season, so fortunately no fans travelled

So going back to the question I asked last week. How many objected to the Massive Ashton Gate revamp . Answer Nil 0 (click below). How many objected to the G.C.C.C massive revamp and gigantic flats . Answer A handful. It is very very obvious we have a ground in the middle of a group of effective lobbyist backed by the Greens. Whatever the club does groups will form and oppose every single plan we come up with. When I did my 3 year uni course a long long time ago. The tutors challenged me to provide evidence to back up my arguments. The Greens have never denied it as backed Horfield Rose : Trash and now this campaign. There is clear evidence via the Green Party local website it as backed these groups. However : there is no evidence whatsoever that lobbyist have opposed the massive Ashton or County Ground project or the Greens have intervened. Even though the club have consulted ( late I accept ). Guess what ?. The objections are now pouring in and I now fear the local powerful activist backed by the Greens could win the day. I do think there is a prejudice against our club and I have proofed this in evidence. Not one single person could provide any evidence G.C.C.C or Bristol City have been subject to the same discrimination as Bristol Rovers. When I read the latest objections the club must be at a loss as to what to do . stadiumdb.com/news/2013/11/bristol_ashton_gate_revamp_approved_unanimouslyHow can there be any objections when hardly anyone can read or write in that area of Bristol let alone put a coherent objection together?

Just a thought regarding emails, way back before forums were a thing, there was a group called the "Gas list" which was a group of Gasheads that communicated via emails. (BRFC board members included)
If Gasburner was part of the "Gas List" he would possibly still have access to the email addresses of those members and if you still have the same email address as back then, that might be why you received an email.
Like I said, just a thought......

Does anyone know if we have a date for stand completion and target first match it will be open for? With Exeter being postponed next week, the contractors should have some extra time to get on with it without stopping next Friday to put in temp seating. again Next home game is Tues 24th

Fake News ... The Mem is being redeveloped. First the South stand and the South West stand next to it will be finished and look pretty good. The Thatchers end will be a two tier seated stand and the gaps- around the East stand will also be covered and seated. West stand will be revamped and refreshed. All this over the next five years max !! Agreed, East stand is next though extending the existing structure, then the North end as you described. No point anyone asking about condiments.

There is no football club in the UK who have faced this level of objections from local lobbyists. The massive cricket ground revamp including the gigantic stands recieved less objections . The Ashton gate revamp recieved less . Even the complete Ashton Vale new build recieved less. I made no apology in saying the Green Party have supported every single protest group .They are very powerful holding both local political power and social privileges. As a club / organisation we are only human. The club are under introspection and challenged in every decision they made. People don't realise that if a powerful group of lobbyist are continuing to scrutinise every plan . This feels both exhausting and disempowering. Imagine if the same was done to another community group or social organisation?. In regards to Bristolians posting positive comments on behalf of the club. I suggest if it goes to planning then we as supporters need to repeat the exercise all over again. Sadly once again we need to fight the lobbyist and write to the council and councillors. As I stated we have made mistakes. But anyone would if they are under investigation introspection and challenge. It's so sad many see the club as a hinderance instead of helping and working alongside to get a resolution. Put it another way. What evidence is there in 25 years that the Greens have supported us or the local lobbyist ?. I could list many statements the Greens supporting Trash Horfield Rose F.O .M.S and now this. It's ironic that once they win battles ( I never underestimated there protest skill). They are now conveying a message of co-operation and engagement. Your first sentence must be a wild and dramatic guess. Fair play if you've researched every stadium revamp and build in the UK over the past 30 years, but I doubt you have. That comments page had a few hundred letters on it. That's nothing in a city of 500k. 707K
