Well 2005/06 Bristol City Relegated us to League 2, 2007/08 will Bristol Rovers relegate us on the second last day of the season this year? 

Nah, we'll be down by March

Relief! I remember the TEF'ers at the pub before the City match a couple years ago, chanting Ashton Gate is full of shit and the guy almost spontaneously com busting and went spare! :D

We if they do at least this time it'll be a shorter trip home and we won't have to wait a century to be let out of the car park!

And I wont have to stop Martin from getting nicked!

Ha ha yeah that too, that steward was a right tool though and deserved to get hit!

I remember very little about that day!

keep up gaz, we got relegated a few weeks ago....

Yay I missed it! :D

I think you'll find we have exactly the same amount of points from the same amount of games this season as we did in 05/06. Now there's a reassuring thought for you.

I'm off to slash my fucking wrists

If that was in response to me, I mentioned this fact to my Uncle earlier and he called me "a regular ray of sunshine" :D

It wasnt Ian

More so the whole thread

i want a bill power protest again

Have to say I think the Leicester away game could be a simmilar drubbing that the Nottingham Forest game was that season. We never recovered from going down 7-1 up there, and it could be a big defeat knocks the shit out of us again.

ahhhh memories.....

For me t was the Franchise home game that put the final nail in the coffin.

We are staying up this season. Fact*.

*ish

Also, that season we were 23rd at this stage. This season we are 18th with the same amount of points so there are even worse teams then us and worse teams in general that 05/06. I know some of the bottom teams have games in hand.

Still, it was February we went on a run last time, including a win on Valentines Day against Gillingham and we just so happen to have a game on Valentines Day this year?!

I wasnt there. But the radio were saying that Huddersfield were doing an 'after you claude' shooting practice the last half hour. I bet they got on the bus elated it was 2-1.

Id almost rather we had lost 5-0 and Wilson had laid into them. We are going to get a bad beating this season, just hope it sooner rather than later so we can recover.

It was the Barnsley away game that did it for me....

another similiarity to 05/06 is that all of our signings have been let downs...nalis is the new whalley, marshall the new shakes etc

at least i have some faith in the current board not to sell our one good player.

I looked for a table from that period and couldn't find one, I was sure we were lower then than we are this time though, so thanks for that. Think its a lot closet down the bottom this year though.

Nah sonic, at least weve spent well on Cox.

If Cox had been a Cureton then we really would have been buried.

Indeed, I'm amazed that the scoreline ended up looking close, we were miles behind on the pitch.

i didn't include cox as he was originally a sturrock signing and was made permenant last january. although with his recent form i was a little concerned he was going the way of cureton.

Rory right about now had the same amount of goals as well.

mr.reeves us being 23rd is off the top of my head and could be easily wrong but the main difference between this season and that season is that season we were pretty much in the bottom 4 all season. We got back to back home wins against Walsall and Gillingham and moved to 18th only to fuck up a lead against Rotherham and we found ourselves back in the bottom 4 and we stayed there. This season we've barely been in the bottom, we seem to have someone been amazingly shite won 1 game and still we've managed to stay above the dotted line
