Just been on their forum and it's looking unlikely that they'll be coming here.

There was an article by Durnford, saying that they are in talks with shitty to hold the bigger games at trashton, Forest, Leeds, Yeovil and Swindon were mentioned.

I think it's gonna be a combination of Cheltenham and shitty.

Good.

Has anyone said why Twerton Park cant be used? I presume Bath City still play there?

Yep and the fact that it no longer meets League spec.

I would imagine it is because the traffic in Bath is always a complete nightmare. I haven't been there for ages but it always used to be like permanent gridlock.

Yep, it's not up to current standard, and would cost a good wedge to do it.  Plus Team Bath play there - may be a long term contract with them-  I think I saw somewhere that they had at elast a season left.

To be honest, I'd rather wait anxiously til officially announced. Its all rumours til then...and I wouldn't put anything past the current mob upstairs.

If we never posted rumours there would be fuck all on here! :D

Id be very suprised if it went ahead ... but it wouldnt be the first time I got it wrong! :|

I believe the deal with Team Bath at Twerton Park ends after next season, it's rumoured that Rovers may delay the development by 12 months so that a) they can wait for Team Bath to clear out of Twerton and b) bring Twerton up to league standard in the mean time.

Football League regs mean they can't use the two stadium idea, e.g. normal games at Cheltenham, bigger games at Ashton Gate.

city have siad no aint they?rovers coming here would suit all partys better(exept for us)why use two grounds when one is plenty big enough?
i still reckon they're coming here

They will be coming here, you can see it coming, i'd be surprised if they went anywhere else.......

I personally don't think they will come here. It may even come down to the fact our board are incapable of making a decision and informing them promptly but I don't think it will happen

Rovers won't be coming here.

But Bart told us it was a done deal.

I refuse to believe he was wrong

There's supposed to be some kind of announcement this week anyway. We'll see.

i doubt they will be coming here. let's hope so anyway!  :D

Well apparently there is an announcement on this tomorrow so let's see what happens!!

On radio swindon earlier I was pissed off. They mentioned about an announcement tomorrow but they said the decision will be made if Rovers want to come to us or go elsewhere.

Surely it should be the other way around? If we take them?

Giving or receiving the decision, it doesn't matter. If Rovers come, we'll be fucked over.

I've seen a few people on different messageboard saying that cheltenham and rovers are holding press conference's tomorrow, i've tried looking on the official cheltenham website and there's nothing on there but if that is true hopefully rovers will be fucking off to cheltenham :D

This was on Points West this evening, the  reporter also said and I Quote: "Swindon Town mean while,  the other possible destination for Rovers, say they are some way off being able to come to an agreement and have no plans to make any announcement tomorrow"

All very intriguing.

They thought it would go through on the QT, but after what happened at the Inn on the Green at Rovers, there was absolutely no way the fans were not going to let this board get away with a groundshare with them.

It has been noticeable how our favourite ( :D ) director Mike 'I used to work for NPower' Bowden, how quiet he has been since he let the cat out of the bag aroun 2 months ago, and Glos Robin overheard him say that 'it was a done deal'.

Its just been on bbc points west that rovers are sharing with cheltenham next season!!  :beers:  :beers:

YAY!!! :beers:

Bowden is a tosser. End of

Somebody else who feels the same way as me! :blahblahblah:
