The Cardiff game started at 7.30 in the evening. I believe nearly 20 percent of the crowd were Blues. Sorry that over half your fans were on holiday. Shame that your club overcharged for the entrance fee. Nuff said.............................
You ought to know it's a commitee that organises a testimonial not the club,working people are allowed a holiday,your blues point could have been Cardiff fans and your overcharge point as stated had nothing to do with the club...
makes a change we actually won a friendly game to be fair.. against barcelona iswell.. promotion is surely in the bag this season
I simply can't believe the Teds are getting so uppity about a testimonial! A bloody testimonial!! If that's the yardstick for your season, then you're clearly in for a long and unpleasant one! Which is nice....
Our bragging rights is we are 2 leagues above you and last time our teams met we won, simple really, enjoy Fleetwood away me sides
Last time out teams met properly we won and you couldn't score over 180 mins against our ****e defense me sides!!!
last time we met that actually counted.... we won. since the bristol derby began (1982) the head to head still remains in rovers favour. even bbc sport dont recognise as important and not even counted it..... last results http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/bristol-rovers/results clutching at straws me thinks red
Just think the over-excited reds should read the definition of a Testimonial Match as given by Wikepedia (a source often quoted by themselves) 'Clubs typically grant testimonials to players upon reaching ten years of service with a club, although they sometimes are given to players with less service as they approach retirement. These matches are always non-competitive' So just calm down lads!!!
This is the full facts of our encounters as history states not made up facts since 1982 - (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) Below is a summary of the results of matches played between Bristol City and Bristol Rovers in the Football League, FA Cup, Football League Cup and Football League Trophy. Bristol City have traditionally been the stronger of the two sides winning 43 of the derbies compared to 29 for Bristol Rovers. Moreover Bristol City have often been in a higher league than Bristol Rovers, this has meant that the two sides have not met in a league match since the 2000–01 season. As at 19:04, 10 September 2007 City wins Draws Rovers wins City goals Rovers goals At Bristol City 24 18 11 86 55 At Bristol Rovers 19 15 18 68 68 Total 43 33 29 154 123 Highest aggregate score: 8 (Bristol City 5–3 Bristol Rovers, 1956–57) Highest Bristol City score: 5 (Bristol Rovers 0–5 Bristol City, 1926–27) Highest Bristol Rovers score: 5 (Bristol Rovers 5–1 Bristol City, 1933–34) Most Recent Result: Bristol Rovers 1–0 Bristol City, 2006–07 What it fails to put but i will is the 3-0 victory on the 6th August, it may have been a friendly but we all know in our hearts it killed you to get such a lesson, and i'm not being bias but it should of been 6 or 7.
i might do the same. but this time i'll make is fair..... 2 clubs vs 2 clubs on head to head instead of APL 2011 version of 2 clubs vs 1 club on head to heads. so...... bristol city + 1982 ltd ----------vs---------- rovers + wolves (for example) hmmm, rovers and wolves win! just pointless
Yawn......ZZZZzzzzzzzz.....John Major was prime minister the last time you were in the second tier 92'93,you had to seek re-election to the football league,you had to leave Eastville because you were busted,you didn't join the football league until 1920.,you've been promoted 5 times and relegated 5 times blah,blah,blah...waffle,waffle,waffle...ZZzzz... let it go and let's all move on,honest it's history and boring.....
us let it go?? its your fans that are so desparate to have this testimonial game count for bragging rights. im laughing at this big time we can all make stats work on our favour as APL and i have shown above. however facts cannot be used in this way and remain the same in each corner. here are some facts. you went bust. you reformed into 1982 ltd. your club is 30 years old. head to heads for your club (just for apl thats 1982 ltd) vs rovers show rovers are winning the head to heads. rovers won the last derby that counts. city won a friendly/testimonial game (well done) that dont count all facts which cant be denied unless stupid night all oh and congrats on having 2203 home supporters tonight vs a prem side. shocking support.
Here are 3 facts,we are in the Championship,you are 4th tier fodder,we beat you 3-0 and 3 days later held a Premier club to a 1-1 draw... I promise I will watch your home gates under Mcgoo and give you a an honest opinion after 10 games compared with Buckle,will the average be 6k,7k or 8k and we will see about shocking support...
ok wiz. for someone who views us "gas" as no longer rivals, its funny that you cant wait to look out for our home attendances 'promising' to watch out for them. thats dedication that is im predicting less that 6000 average for us. double dip recession and all that but feel free to give your honest opinion. you know me wiz, im game for banter with you but im sure several on here will know exactly what to do with your opinion and RODs ass will be involded im sure
Well worded and pretentious,I was merely talking about shocking attendances and we know who made that statement,I couldn't give sixpence about people on here and what they think of my opinion but I do respect yours....end of....
