Bristol Rovers are a basket case club.
They hired Joey Barton.
They can't find a site for a new stadium. The UWE one fell apart and the fruit market site has gone tits up.
They built a new stand before gaining planning permission, flattening a listed tree in the process.
They're an absolute...
Hard to disagree. Four crap results (and probably 3 shit performances) were preceded by excellent wins over Man City and Bournemouth at which point we were 5th. It's not exactly been all bad. Also worth pointing out we'd still be fifth without the dumb collapses against Wolves and Leicester.
I'm with @jcdenton08, Arthur Atkinson and entourage were the funniest thing on the show.
Caroline Ahern's "what did I say, Roy?" character was also quality. Ted and Ralph, Unlucky Alf, the fruit machine know-it-all, the bloke in the pub who's opinion changed with the slightest bit of pressure...
His name was Brek Bednar and he went to my kids school. His younger twin brothers were in my son's year. The whole thing was dreadful - his parents were divorced and he was at his dad's house and told him he was going out to meet friends. His dad took him at his word but neither of them...
This is of course the correct answer. My wife and I went to "an evening with the Fast Show" in London last year and when they did the whole Tommy Cockles, Arthur Atkinson, Chester Drawers thing we were still wetting ourselves laughing. It was always a genius sketch.
`ere, Madame, I've seen...
Matthew Le Tissier was a fantastic watch and I did on several occasions. He carried Southampton for a decade and as is typical of simpletons managing England over several years, was criminally overlooked because he was a luxury player.
Sorry, no, it was because he didn't play for a big club...
If you say you hate a club more than Palace,, it doesn't mean you're wanting a fake rivalry with them. It's just that you hate them.
I don't particularly like several clubs and most of them we have zero rivalry with. I really dislike Portsmouth but 80% of their fans barely view us a rival any...
The match day thread amused me as there was one nob on there insisting he should be nowhere near the first team. Well he hasn't pulled up any trees but was ok last night. And he was 100 times better than O'Riley, who picked up where he left off in the second half of the Southampton game and...
Adingra and Dunk are getting pelters for their admittedly shite performances, but tonight Bart cost us a goal and O'Riley was invisible. It's a squad game and we can't always play our strongest XI, and it's not as if any of them are infallible.
