    That's enough

    According to Matty Roper's report, RV wanted to leave Not exactly shocking to sell a player in that situation...

    Lee Burge???

    Every time the opposition get a free kick within 25 yard of goal, there is a strong possibility Burge will let it in. It keeps happening because he positions himself too far to the other side of the goal from where the wall is. Surely Oggy must have noticed this too...? His reactions are good...

    Overhyped Player

    Greg Downs Harsh to mention a popular cup winner with us, I know, but opposition teams used to target him regularly because of his lack of pace. Obviously John Sillett rated him highly and his commitment was never in doubt. (Also I admit I appreciated him more when we signed Paul Edwards as his...

    Signing Number 3!

    Don't think Bigi is as bad as some are making out. He does give away possession more than most, but often because he is attempting ambitious forward passes. Much rather have him than Connor Thomas in our squad. Even if he's not having the best of games, he doesn't hide, which so many...

    Euro 2016 big thread

    Though Henderson's crossing let him down tonight, I don't think his performance was as bad as others are making out. Unlucky not score with that volley which was well blocked too... As for Wilshire, thought he really was poor. Gave away possession frequently and not physical enough. Unlike...

    How would you feel if we...

    Wow... Never been called that one before! FWIW I absolutely despise rugby (always have done, always will). I find it sickening to see the Wasps logo on our stadium and am surprised at the level of indifference towards Wasps merchandise being sold on our match days. Sometimes, situations are so...

    How would you feel if we...

    No, and I'm not an apologist for Wasps either. We are well and truly in the shit and may be forced into accepting things we don't want to happen. I wouldn't want us to do this (and it may well be that most fans who buy shirts would refuse to consider buying one, so we would lose out that way)...

    How would you feel if we...

    ... had Wasps as the sponsor of our away shirt and played in yellow/black stripes away? I believe that we may already have an agreement in place for the away shirt next year, but can't help feeling that this could be a bargaining chip to get a bigger slice of revenue from the Ricoh from Wasps...

    "Realistic" free transfers or signings only

    Unlikely to get Taylor now that AFC Wimbledon have gone up. As I said on another thread, I think we should be after Scott Wagstaff (attacking midfielder just been released by Bristol City)

    Mogga meeting with Championship and L1 players this week

    Hope Scott Wagstaff was one of the players Mowbray met up with last week. Would be a very good addition - he wants more first team football (just been released from Bristol City) and is excellent at this level. Gadshev seems to be a replacement for Fleck, I think Wagstaff would be good in the...

    Bristol Rovers

    I live in Bedminster, but used to live in Rovers territory (Horfield / Kingswood). Not been drinking on Gloucester Rd for years - think there are some quite expensive pubs which aren't all that special. Happy to listen to recommendations though... Good to see both Bristol clubs heading in the...

    Bristol Rovers

    For obvious reasons I'm pleased too! Will involve a visiting a few pubs along the Gloucester Road... wise to avoid the Wellington Arms though (potential for trouble). Used to be a pub called the John Cabot which was a nightmare, but it was refurbished a few years ago - now called the Royal Oak...

    Jordan Willis back in training

    Agree, Otis. Though he's not the tallest CB, he is good in the air for his height. When he broke into the first team I think he showed some promise as a CB. With him, Aaron Martin and young Harries we just need a beast of a CB to give us the right mix next year (one that isn't always injured...)
