    Just watched my recording of the Saturday afternoon local News.

    Our goals were shown,and results of the other three local side were displayed

    No mention of Bristol Rovers

    Can some one tell Geoff Twentyman his former employer ain't a league team any more.

    If it was good enough for Yeovil Town when they were a NON LEAGUE team not to be covered

    It should be good enough for Bristol Rovers now THEY are a non league side

    The horse punchers don't deserve to get any coverage. They're scum.

    Actually they should get a mention - just because they are non-league should make no difference - their fan base is still the same, so an odd decision in terms of ratings?

    On this basis Paulton, Bristol Manor farm should all get more mentions then? Who cares about their fan base, they are a non league outfit

    When BMF or Paulton get 7,000 for a home game then I would agree

    I actually like to hear how they are getting on - in recent season's it's reminded me there's always someone worse off than us!!

    Personally, I love it that we seem to annoy most of you so much.

    The very fact that we exist appears to send otherwise sensible people into paroxysms of rage.

    There is of course only one team in Bristol. Another plays in the city, but the company that owns it seems to be based outside the UK. Guernsey I believe. <laugh>

    That may be true, but you'd swap places with us in a heartbeat. Not that Higgs has a heart of course.

    I wonder where fatty Higgs spends most of his time and money, Italy I believe, he invests bugger all in Bristolians, not even exiles in Cam...:wink:
