Hmmmm.. Can't say I'm surprised by this and I would warn this, don't assume that this will just get rubbed away as if by magic and digging will commence in a few weeks, because I doubt very much it will.
It is very tempting to drop to the level of many Rovers fans who actively campaigned against our stadium bid for no other reason than pure jealousy. Remember it was CJS who started a petition and encouraged people here to sign it, proclaiming that he was unable to afford an additional 10p a week in local tax towards it! I wonder if you have reaped what you have sown here? All this faux protesting has given the nimbys and greens the encouragement they needed (and some apparent success) However I do find it all rather sad that we are just so far behind other cities in our general ambitions.!
Shame indeed.

Spot on Banksy - CJS loved it, especially the dog walking.
CJS speaks with forked tongue.
Baldee - I really hope you get your stadium - 'As you know, I, and many others don't fall into that camp as the benefits that accrue for the City of Bristol should outweigh any daft partisan point scoring' - Spot on.
umm when did i start a petition?? now stop the bull ****, especially you banksy who accused me of saying the other day on the lambert thread on your board that i said it was the majority of city fans which i didnt. so gasheads, read these 2 comments and see the lies.
now here is the truth....
i was dead against city using the world cup bid to hide behind meaning it would cost the tax payer - me. i have no issues with city getting a new stadium but its wrong that it was going to be part funded by the tax payer which it was going to be. thats why i was against it at the time and i did state this reason at the time. i also stated at the time that if it wasnt for the world cup bid i would be very supportive. which is what happened. as soon as england lost the world cup bid i was supportive and wished you all the best getting your stadium. i stated so many on the bbc606 and even on here too that i hope you do get your stadium. i set up NO petition. however there was a petition going on which i added the link on the bbc606. this was done out of fairness. there was petitions going around to support it and i counter balanced it by adding a link to the petition against it. i didnt start the petition and wouldnt know how to do it so cut the bull ****.
as for the dog walking, **** me, have you never heard of banter???
so basically i cant be serious and have a laugh at the same time??? listen to yourself then have a word with yourself.
.

again i have no worried. delayed the start of the build it would still be on target for start of teh season that rovers were planning. it would have been due to be built half way through 2014/15 season. we wouldnt have been allowed to move mid season so wouldnt be able to start using it until the start of 2015/16 season. 12 weeks wont delay this
