No need, we are the Pirates. We need not only a new manager and team but the owners to be trueful and get their act together. Wish they were all BRISTOLIONS and not Kuwaites, we cannot wait much longer. Have you got a problem with people from Kuwait ? I am chortling again over the fact that someone who demands a Bristolian can't actually spell Bristolian. Unless he actually wants an actual lion to be in charge.

Am I right in assuming that it is proposed to go in that very silly gap at the back of the South Stand? That seems unlikely? It seems very likely indeed to me. What else is it for? Did they run out of corrugated sheeting?

So flights to Rwanda should take off in 10-12 weeks. Wonder if that gives a pointer to the GE date? Could make it late June or early July. I honestly don’t think seeing flights take of for Rwanda will have any effect on the polls . I don't think there's much appetite left for it in the government but it's a desperate last throw of the dice to get the faithful and true onside and stop them voting Labour or perhaps more importantly flooding to Reform.

Makes me chortle when people say "I'm obviously not a racist because my brother's wife is Indian/my grandfather was half Chinese/I met my wife in a bar in Bangkok". As if that proves anything..... Chhortle away old son - I said that because, in this day and age, one hads to express their feelings when making a point. As for me ? well, my Grandmother was murdered in Dachau and my father forced into the German Army - And I could go on but you really dont derserve any explanation from me - Whoever you are. The point I am making, now try to keep up, is that people, form different times, and experiences, will have formed opions based on their own lives - If that is difficult to understand then I am more than happy to meet you in person and explain The point you are making is not the point I am making. Not al all interested in meeting you but thanks for the friendly offer.

I disagree It very much did work, but what people laughed at was very much generational. My grandfather was born in 1887 and laughed with the character not at him. My own father, a racist dickhead (born 1930) also with, not at. A lot of us laughed at. And argued with the National Front in the 1970s I think you are being a twat - People are entititled to their own views. You and I were not arounfdi in the 30's so have no idea of the feelings at that time. It is better to try and undersatand why people thing as they do rather than act supperior with your own comfertablke life feelings. And before you get all Woke on me - I'm 58, half Polish with grandparents that died in Camps in WW2 so obiviuley not racist - You should have had a chat with your Dad and understood why rather than acting so rightous Makes me chortle when people say "I'm obviously not a racist because my brother's wife is Indian/my grandfather was half Chinese/I met my wife in a bar in Bangkok". As if that proves anything.....

It wasn't such a terrible season overall. We've had far worse. Admittedly the modest League table place hides some seismic events through the course of it. But we're safe and probably a lot less disappointed than Reading and Charlton fans are immediately below us.

Barton due to be interviewed by Cheshire Police over possible offenses under the Communications Act which under section 127(1) CA 2003 criminalises sending via a public communications network a message which is grossly offensive, indecent, obscene, or menacing; and, under section 127(2)(c) CA 2003, of persistently making inappropriate use of a public communications network. Suspect it relates to his twitter attacks on women presenters and footballers. Do you follow every move JB makes? Isn't it time to move on? Probably best to read the title of the thread. He's always going to be of interest and he still comments on his superb achievements at the Mem whilst putting MT down.

The original 'gluten for punishment' post has disappeared, thus making all the witty bread gags totally redundant ☹️

JRM living in a parallel world...again. JRM annoys me so much. A veneer of intelligence from years of private education masks a stupid man with reactionary and dangerous views.

Standards of service in hospitality have plummeted since our European cousins fled these shores for somewhere more welcoming.

Interesting post. Keeping Rotherham in the Championship is like keeping Sheffield United in the Premier League. It ain't gonna happen.
But the inevitably unsuccessful managers are always sacked, as was MT.
It has little to do with whether he can be a success with us. No point quoting his ppg with them. It's a different world in the league above.

I wonder whether the last few weeks of the season, with nothing at stake, evokes a similar mindset to when the exams are over at school, and you just go through the motions until the end of term (whether consciously or unconsciously). I think that's why we shouldn't panic and enter a meltdown just yet. We are safe, none of the squad are as committed as they would be if we were at the top or bottom, and I think a lot of people are going bananas about it at the moment. We have terrible current form but the season as a whole isn't a disaster. And MT contributed to our safety until it went t!ts up recently.

Only at Rovers could the manager still be in job after this appalling run. Not only that the clubs owners have taken to the bunker Barton watched, arms folded, as we went into freefall with a team he accepted no responsibility for and we finished bottom. He wasn't sacked. Apart from the fact I dislike the thug, I could see why we kept faith for the new season because a manager needs to build his own squad and that takes time. Same applies to MT. At least next season we start in the same league....

We are Bristol Rovers and we don't do new manager bounces. Ask Clarke, Garner, Tisdale, Barton and Taylor.
I suppose Cogs did it but he was so shocked he resigned by accident.

It seems Bristol Rovers is a managerial graveyard where your career ends. Tisdale , Garner , Barton …..Taylor ? Who’d want the poisoned chalice ? 😂 Ian Holloway. We may as well just accept the inevitable and give him one last go. He can't be any worse than the last four.

I wonder who else we interviewed and considered for the DoF role, or was Friend the only one? What track record does Chris Spendlove have and was he the best possible candidate for the HoR role? I suspect they went for the cheapest options rather than the best! "A League 1 club is being taken over by a Kuwaiti family of investors." Gasheads: ooooooh?!!! "And that club is Bristol Rovers." Gasheads: wooo hooh!! "And that family are financially prudent and are not going to spend their way to promotion." Gasheads: ffs.....
