    Doesn't matter how many ST holders you got, the fact is you had more fans at Chelsea than what turned up for your game in the previous round against Cardiff <laugh>, plastics
    <whistle>

    And by the way 158 went to Scunthorpe not 70 :)

    You aint getting it. 4k went to Chelsea and we got 5k season ticket holders who got the tickets. You cant call season ticket holders 'plastic'.

    Cardiff game was on sky too as well as the balloon fiesta :)

    Look at the picture of your away end. No way there was 158 <laugh> Plus your own twitter say 70 <whistle> Nice try :)

    I seen this yesterday and I must admit that I didnt have a clue what you were talking about. I kept quiet so I wouldnt look stupid by asking. However, today on twitter, the Evil Post have put the following....

    "Why October 28 is so important for Bristol City fans - Bristol Rovers fans don't like it"
    http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/why-is...9848831-detail/story.html#fLyW40TG8yKGIhPd.99

    What I am confused about is why the Evil Post put "Rovers fans dont like it". Where did they get this from? I didnt even know about this to be honest if it wasnt for them making a song and dance about it on twitter. I have checked all other Rovers fan forums and guess what, its not even being discussed. I guess they dont know about it either. So what Rovers fans are the Evil Post talking about then? We all know they get their stories by copying and pasting from fan forums. I think the Evil Post are just trying to start a slanging match between the 2 sides which is pretty stupid of them

    Personally, this record doesnt bother me in the slightest. City over these last 16 years have had investment and millions and millions pumped into them to get them where they are. Rovers however, throughout this period, have had to sell to survive and got that 'ragbag' tag. I dont believe for a second that City would be where they are or would have coped as well as we have done if they had the exact same finances that we have had to manage on. If you compare how much money both clubs have spent in these last 16 years and see the difference in Citys favour and they are only just 1 league above us, im not fussed at all about the 16 year record <ok>

    Good for you, I feel the same about Man Utd and they've been above us for a lot longer than 16 years. I've accepted like you have that they are a bigger better richer and better supported than us. You have to been realistic and compare yourself to like minded clubs and not ones that are so clearly out of your league.<ok>

    <laugh> Exactly, well said :)

    Shame City fans still feel the need to compare themselves with us Rovers. I thought we were not rivals. As you say above, we are clearly out of your league, so I wonder why you all bother with us <whistle>

    Just came across this from twitter from a few tweets from Edgware Town FC.

    Todays match with Holmer Green was abandoned after 13 minutes. The referee had made some strange decisions then lost the plot and abandoned the game because of constant moaning from a fan.

    <laugh>

    Wonder if the fans got a refund or if they got to pay full price next time or have to pay more like what our fans had to do at Swindon!

    I took the shell of my racing snail thinking it'll go faster. If anything it made it more sluggish
