Bristol Rovers confirm the sacking of manager Matt Taylor and assistant manager Wayne Carlisle, with David Horseman and Lee Cattermole taking interim charge.
The Gas should never have stiffed Joey Barton.. I've got a soft spot for the Pirates...Reason, my first ever game was City vs Bristol Rovers in about 65.
My first game was again Bristol Rovers too I think. A few years later than that though Didn’t they play in Bath for some time?
Sure did...Twerton Park, I think. Use to play at Eastville Stadium, by the gas holder, on the m/way going into Bristol city centre, hence the nickname Gasheads... Fans would occasionally get dizzy with the effects. Now at the Memorial Ground which is a bit of a hole. Well it was when I went there with City.
Really? Here's a reason. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4g3zz1wynjo There are others. Plenty of others.
Fair enough. He did okay in his first season or second season at Bristol. Got them promoted. It was a few years ago now. And I know he's a prat and a top grade gobshite...Not sure how he ever got on Question Time, but that's another issue. I now hear he's in trouble again with something about malicious posts.
