[Spence CCFC]

Season starting later than normal then?

 

[skybluesteve76]

Season doesn't start until the 18th


All the best

Happy with Bristol Rovers away......couple of hours away on the train for me and a decent piss up.

Looks like them directions to the Memorial Ground from that Bristol City fan a while back will come in handy after all!

[cheever]

Oh my days!!!....Beer keller after the game

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Gonna be great,a few beers or ciders down by the waterfront scanning the local talent,then bus or taxi up the gloucester rd to the rugby ground,happy days!!!

 

[canleykid]

Parking is crap at bristol rovers however there a sports club five min walk away you can park there and drink there It's ok and friendly

 

[skybluesam66]

first league game is away - was agreed. when we took on the olympics - so no pre season friendly at home . Also as higher league clubs tend to only play glamour friendlies at home, we will not be playing anybody of any great stature this year

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

think their pub is the wellington on the gloucester rd

That's the excuse they'll use! Well now you've suggested it they will anyway

Even if there was, it wouldn't be a big team. No disrespect to Norwich or the Baggies but the last two pre season friendlies at home are as big as they get for us.

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Best place to meet is the bay horse pub by bristol bus station then a stroll up the gloucester rd,for a few loads of pubs on the way!!!

You're so right there were as big as stevanage and crawley now so who apart from port vale nuneaton hinckley the usual games want to play us bristol rovers has been confirmed and that's as good as it gets

 

[Gray]

If only we we're able to play home matches the premier league teams always send their reserves to lowly teams like us!

True but we used to pay fifty pence or get in free with season tickets as a friendly its fifteen or twenty pound......premier league reserves aren't worth that

Is that allowed, CK?

Some on here think that that makes you look like a sad case (unlike them getting the Club's coach to an away game....:facepalm

 

[CovLad82]

We have arranged a friendly against Accrington Stanley (away) at some point in August.

Nice to get a few up there to a historic club.

Take a brolly if raining, you could get wet.

 

[castlevaleskyblue]

It's 4th of August should be good day out Accrington Stanley who are they?

 

[Sub]

[lordsummerisle]

The only time i've been to Bristol Rovers, they were playing at Twerton Park, Gerry Francis was their manager

What's wrong with the club coach LBB? Ah, when they give away your seat (£17) on the coach because you were 5 minutes late then they tell you to make your own way back from flipping Morecambe.
