    We've sponsored our first Gas Goal! Let's hope there's many more to come!

    And how fitting that 'our Ellis' who we have sponsored twice and was one of the first young players we sponsored in 2013 was the one to score our first goal........

    Due to the rising cost of hospitality for our members its unlikely we will sponsor a league game this season due to lack of attendees.

    The Roll of Honour is now updated.!

    I guess as we are sponsoring every goal we score, at the moment, we are scoring a lot so I guess every penny is going towards that!

    I think my last comment old timer will apply to the 1883 club shirt sponsor draw. Its £1250 plus VAT to enter. At the moment, the funds recieved from those who have signed up to the FFSC will surely be covering all the goals we score. We have scored 45 goals so far this season which at £25 a goal = £1125 paid to the club for 45 goals. That is 112 peoples worth of membership fees. Do the FFSC have 112 members signed up this season? If not then how are the FFSC paying for the goals we are going to score as there is 20 games still left to play? Is there money left over from last season? Are the FFSC getting funds from elsewhere? Therefore, I cant see for the life of me how the FFSC will put in £1250 plus VAT to enter the draw to sponsor next seasons shirt, if you catch my drift <ok>

    Firstly, we'd like to thank everyone who has taken part/joined in this seasons Fan's Forum Sponsor Club, the support we have received this season from you all again has been incredible and it's YOU that make it a success in Sponsoring and raising income for the football club.

    We have Sponsored 8 Rovers players in 2016/17 including Captain Tom Lockyer who we have now sponsored for five seasons since he broke into the side as a youngster.

    We managed to Sponsor the League Cup Cardiff City clash. Of course we would have loved to have sponsored another match but the truth is the club are selling out of hospitality places quickly now, which is great news for the club even if it means we have less chance to meet up/share some great times.

    This season we pulled of a first for the football club Sponsoring EVERY GOAL ROVERS SCORED and we look forward to settling our bill. This was done not only to support the club and sponsor something new, but also in the hope that maybe a business Sponsors our Goals in the future and more money is raised for the club. And who knows next season we may just sponsor clean sheets!

    Our 'GasBill' pledge-style fundraiser has once again raised lots of cash and the generosity of Rovers Supporters who give so much through this continues to amaze us.

    Huge thanks must go to Parrot who has gathered all the funds and overseen the banking in his usual efficient/trustworthy way. Top man - Thanks Parrot.
