All off to Ashton Gate!

Dome and glome. 3-0 to Brizzle.
We've managed 3 wins in 25 attempts at Ashton Gate. 1994, 1907 and 1904. :(

Dome certainly but I think with glom. All by a single goal.

This could get nasty in a lettuce, beetroot and coleslaw kind of way

22nd worst away form in the division.

We will have to alter that if we're to have any chance.
That'd be 2nd best then? My word, there's a lot of shite teams in this league if we're 2nd best... :wink:

Living in Bristol these days I can't wait for this. Is there an away pub where the whites are heading?

Looking forward to a weekend away here. Bristol Old Vic (where I used to work in the 90s) for Midsummer Nights Dream - production much praised - on Friday. A victory would be the first time I've seen us win at Ashton Gate ever (I've managed one scoreless draw and several defeats!). Seeing, and staying with, old mates, the male half of whom is a Rovers fan so he's very happy to anticipate a Wanderers win. He also has a cellar stuffed with brilliant wine he's mostly bought at vineyards in France, Italy, Sicily. I'm bringing him a Burgundy - he'll like!

I'm not travelling with them.. I'm going from Bromley Cross.

But the Shamrock lads won't be going down there for a cup of tea and a round of applause.. Caps and Coffey will probably know most of 'em

Haha.. She'll fvckin kamikaze me off Barton Bridge! Lad I know has a spare place in his minibus free of charge and they're all going from Bromley Cross, so jumping in from there..

Most of 'em are old now. You'll probably know Col H (ex: Brindley Arms) I imagine

We beat them in 1904. We'll do it again, in fact we'll go one better, numerology says so.
1+9+0+4=14=1+4=5
2+0+1+3=6

I had hoped this might be a 'Negative free zone!'

What was I thinking?

Colin is a trooper, last year v Arsenal at home it was minus 10 and he had shorts and flip-flops on :shock:
