Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Bogus Dave on Wednesday, June 21, 2006, 19:36:32 how come we dont hate these? Sorry if its an obvious question, but im just curious why we don't have the same hatred for them as we do with city.

Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, June 21, 2006, 19:37:41 Because they are irrelevant.

Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, June 21, 2006, 20:03:49 Quote from: "Kinky Tom" Quote from: "RichPullen" Because they are irrelevant. They're not this season... I meant in regards to "local" rivalry. I'm like Tails - I have no hatred for Bristol City etc... I hate Oxford and Oxford only. :) Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Sade on Wednesday, June 21, 2006, 20:21:16 :? Personally I hate Bristol city and Bristol city only, I dislike oxford but can't find the hatred for them as I've never experienced a oxford/swindon game. Although some of their fans did spray water at me on the way to barnsley :x But I laughed mostly.
I've neverminded bristol rovers, Infact I tend to look out for them and see how they are doing. Everybody says their fans are really violent but I think citys are much worse!

Nah City fans are just very....primitive.I've neverminded bristol rovers, Infact I tend to look out for them and see how they are doing. Everybody says their fans are really violent but I think citys are much worse! I hate Oxford much more than City, but I suppose when you know City fans and play them more often it tends to become more of a big thing. Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Reg Smeeton on Wednesday, June 21, 2006, 21:05:33 Its quite simple really....historically both sets of fans hate Sh**ty. So its a case of the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Its not quite that simple really as there has often been some serious trouble with Rovers....certainly more than you'd ever see v O*frod, but generally Rovers fans are a realistic bunch who've never had the delusions of grandeur of the Shitheads.

The Cabot used to be my local but I always refused to go and see them play, and I used to love seeing their faces coming out of the ground towards the end of 99/00. They were doing so well for a while :D Title: Bristol rovers Post by: fatbury on Thursday, June 22, 2006, 07:11:03 cos my mate is now their manager??
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: McLovin on Thursday, June 22, 2006, 07:15:58 Yes, that's it. I like Rovers because a bloke on an internet forum that i also frequent thinks that his mate is the manager. I knew there was a reason somewhere...
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: fatbury on Thursday, June 22, 2006, 08:36:08 well thats why I dont hate them as much as I should ... im hoping Paul will let me in the VIP section at the away match too this year :beers:
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: DV on Thursday, June 22, 2006, 11:50:19 I dont hate Rovers because they arent Oxford!
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, June 22, 2006, 19:15:46 what the heck? they are only 40 miles down the road! fucking pricks!
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Spencer_White on Friday, June 23, 2006, 05:12:18 They get about 6000 every week, but only have about 3 regular posters on the internet.
Bit strange, bit old school. The game there will be intimidating. Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Melksham Red on Friday, June 23, 2006, 14:12:38 I hate Rovers. It's won't be very nice on Glous Road if we get a result believe me.
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, June 23, 2006, 18:56:18 I love Rovers. I'm supporting them next season instead of Swindon.
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: my-velocity on Friday, June 23, 2006, 19:50:39 My dad supported the gas as he is a brizzle boy, but i got him supporting swindon town :D
Title: Bristol rovers Post by: reeves4england on Friday, June 23, 2006, 20:54:10 I have nothing against them at all! In any Rovers vs City game I would be supporting the team in blue and white. I don't understand why but I have no hatred for them at all, unlike City.
And before people moan, the hatred for City does not compare to the way I despise the scum! :wink: Title: Bristol rovers Post by: Johno on Saturday, June 24, 2006, 09:11:51 Quote from: "Boeta" 'cos rovers fans support gloucestershire whilst city fans are traditionally associated with somerset. simple really great, im associated with city fans.
