You`re not wanted anymore.
Unreliable.

 

[Balham Blade]

“Brammal Lane .WOW.”

Wow indeed...but at the mangled spelling.

 

[seanbeenstattoo]

800 is a brilliant turn out if they can bring that.

 

[Grecian2000]

"if we come back from Brammall Lane with anything we’ll have done well"

Not half, you'll be the only team in the history of the universe . . . . .

“Sheffield united fans will still be in mourning for losing the watney cup final to rovers back in 1972…..”

 

[JOEYDEE]

Only just took my black armband off after that Watney Cup final defeat ,and now they've brought it
all back up again...bastards !!!

“Sheffield united fans will still be in mourning for losing the watney cup final to rovers back in 1972…..”

I thought that was a brilliant,tongue firmly in cheek comment.
Especially as they`ve won a major cup competition more recently than us as a consequence of the shocking performance on our part that sunny day.

and for that reason they are our huge rivals, bigger than Oxford, if I may be so bold to say so.

“It’s so annoying when attractive away fixtures a fair distance away are on a Tuesday – we’ve already had Sheff Weds and Norwich away on a Tuesday and we’ve also got Leeds, QPR and PNE away midweek. Fair play to anyone who does an away game which involves a long journey on a Tuesday.”

Are we playing Bristol City?

Always respected Rovers support, they're a noisy bunch I believe, but if they've without Taylor then it might be a good time to play them. Either way we're on decent form.

 

[seanbeenstattoo]

McAllisters fault. Shit keeping.

What league does this dreamer think they got promoted to

Is this a City fan who does both teams fixtures.

This is the only watneys I remember

 

[Rodley]

Fair play to the Gas - 800 is a belting following.

I guess supporting both teams may happen in Bristol?

Some of us in Sheffield still follow both of the teams, Sheffield United and Sheffield FC.

I guess they also have a deluded arrogant neighbour like we do.

 

[Harry's Game]

I have a soft spot for the Gas Heads, shit on over the years by their local Authority who clearly favour their rivals, we know what that's like.

Still want us to turn them over though.

 

[bricktop]

I much prefer Bristol Rovers over Bristol City.

I have two reasons for having a preference for the Gas over City.

1. I've held a lifelong grudge over Bristol City relegating us in 1988

2. I worked at Butlins at Minehead with a few Bristolians. One lad was a Gashead, a sound lad, loved a beer, no airs and grace and a proper top lad, whilst the Bristol City fan was a cunt, who absolutely loved himself and thought he was better than everyone else.....

They must let "others" into their forum as it appears we have done.

 

[tedster]

Im a rovers fan but in the last couple of years seen lots Iof the blades home n away as my mum lives in dronfield n me in nottingham.Already 800 sold n if it was a sat would easily double that.Been to see 4 blades games this year,3 wins,1 draw

 

[Tyler Durden]

Just been on their forum, this made me pleased.

I like sheff utd, I think they are as close as you get to being a rovers fan, big 2 club city, with the others having the same self importance as the shi*.

 

[Pinchy]

There is no similarity whatsoever between us and either of the small clubs in Bristol. Only a forelock-tugger would be attracted to such an inferiority complex fuelled notion.

Bristol Fucking Rovers....

 

[Tyler Durden]

Hyacinth Bucket strikes again (well 'strikes' is a bit generous, more of the effete flutter that we've come to expect from the boards bitter little eunuch).

Wish they'd take that twat that's turned up on ours recently.....

Give over, she's devine

 

[Small Mendonca]

I quite like Bristol Rovers to be honest. What a cool nickname The Gas is. Plus their kit is quite good.

Lets hope we stuff them tonight nevertheless.

.......in fact, may I say, this warrants the term, Massive!!!
