A good day to be a Rovers' fan. South Glos give the go-ahead for the new ground by 12 to 1. That makes it harder for Bristol to stand in the way. They are already perceived as lacking vision; and to obstruct the development of the Memorial Stadium would just confirm that impression. Then a most pleasant 'Open Evening'. Players were relaxed and approachable. I picked up a few snippets.................. Pre-season training under MM is more intense and demanding than under *uckle For the Frome and WSM games this Saturday the squad will be split evenly....Harrold at Frome and Virgo (who hopes to play 45 mins) at WSM. Muzzy was there....happily signing autographs Fabio (the German) was there too, signing. Hunter's mates were openly jesting and calling him the next Muzzy! Pitch looks brilliant! Oh....the optimism of pre-season!!
I go into every season full of optimism and every season I land back on planet earth with a big bump.
Bloody well amen to that! However, if Clarkson signs (looking possible) and we either get decent cash for Muzzy and replace him with someone decent, then there is no reason not to be optimistic for this season. Up The Gas!!
AJ - may I ask a question? Why are you so obsessed with us? I took a short trip over to the Shrews board (for the 2nd ever time) and many of your posts over there reference the Gas - I find it quite strange that an elderly Shrewsbury supporter such as yourself should be so completely absorbed with all things Rovers? It's just plain weird.
weird yes, but in june last year chris gashead and i shared banter to pass away the summer and it has stuck
