    so delicately put chris-gashead, i suspect the bemmy boys are equally concerned about the southmead mob and the lockleaze lunes. it is still 2 p8ss awful clubs taking the p*ss out of each other, but the banter is second to none.

    bottling it in the play offs is the only likely thing you will repeat this season

    Shame mate, we could have all met up for a pre match pint <ok> I am surprised though, wouldnt have thought you would pass up the chance to watch a good quality side for once ;)

    No way, because neither of your teams have ever won anything, been in the Premiership or even tasted European football. Plus, us at Leicester have to compete with the best Rugby team in the Northern Hemisphere for fans.

    Sorry WalshNo5 have to disagree with you - the best rugby fans are found at Kingsholm. Leicester fans are damn good and you can have some damn good banter with them (from personal experience) as they're very knowledgable - so unlike Bath fans.

    As for the Bristol clubs not winning anything that's not true either - Rovers won the Watneys Cup in 1972 and Bristol City won the toss earlier this season.

    the rovers/city banter is superb and it is a pleasure to interrupt it from time to time.

    No! The new club would start in the position of the highest club before amalgamation. Same as MK Dons when they took the franchise from Wimbledon to Milton Keynes. The local supporters have proven they will pay to watch key matches. Support has been shown to increase when games are played against 'fashionable' clubs
