Ain't it nice, it's nice - we're NOT going to Cheltenham twice

[bocadillo]

It looks as though Bristol Rovers ground redevelopment is off. There is a short statement on their website and news elsewhere that their Supporters Club cancelled yesterday's trip up to Cheltenham to have a look over their temporary home.

It seems that most of the funding for the redevelopment of the Memorial Ground was coming from a company which was building student flats above one of the new stands - they have pulled out and it has delayed any redevelopment for at least a year.

Quite happy (in a selfish non-footballing way). Bristol was a pleasant away day last season.

Don't hold your breath......

 

[Motown Fox]

Probably not unless it's on a Friday night or some other inconvenient time

 

[beaumontfox]

I've never been to Bristol Rovers ground so I'm quite happy about that really!


This is what I've come to, looking at grounds to tick off me list instead of looking forward to the new season......

Me too Beaumont. My wife's family are in Gloucs so I been thinking that actually, Swindon, Cheltenham, Hereford, Bristle Rvs and even Yeovil away won't be too bad this year for me - will try and factor a few weekends there around that time...

Brisle is no worse than lesta in the shit hole stakes and the proportion of wankers, just depends where you go.

 

[Hazzman]

Well I was spat and 'barked' at by a few blokes touching 40 years old.

 

[Joe_Fox]

40 years old, but this is Bristol so halve the actual age to get the mental ability counterpart.

 

[Biffa Bacon]

You can't judge a city just by the football fans.

 

[LS6_Fox]

Nowt wrong with Bristol IMO, lived there for 8 months a few years ago. Most of the people I met were friendly enough.
