We really need to do something about this guys....i do not want bristol rovers here at all, and to hear sturrock saying he wants them here makes it even worse!!....
The pitch will get battered....there will be loads of trouble....it is just not worth it....we need to try and stop this from happening....I'd do anything to stop them coming here....just proves yet again that we have a bunch of clown running this football club.....

It will wreck the pitch.
They will wreck the ground.
The rivalry will just get worse.
The consortium has money.
All I say is no groundshare, and back the Consortium!

That is all How long have I been saying that for now? Ages. It was all you said for about a fucking month. You were wrong then and are wrong now. I've said it before and i'l say it again, Sturrock dosnt strike me as the type of bloke who gets told what to say. He probally sees the extra income as a bonus for the club and has possibly been promised some or all of it for the playing budget. Potential trouble in the town centre isnt his look out. As for the pitch, Reading and Wycombe's pitches seem alright with Rugby clubs playing on there every other week. |

Whereas Rovers, Stockport, Rochdale have had their pitches well and truly buggered by overuse. |

I'm no grass expert, but there must be some reason why some pitches take it and others dont

the way i read Sturrock's piece is that in an ideal world he wouldn't have it - but we're skint so we need the money - but £100k - no thanks. thats a joke.
Multiply that by 5 and we can start talking, but only if the Townend is an overflow and only if we're never away fans in our own ground (cups etc)
In my ideal world, we won;t need their paltry offering anyway, because BP can come in and sort the finances out. 100k, fucking hell.

As for the pitch, Reading and Wycombe's pitches seem alright with Rugby clubs playing on there every other week. Prem Rugby teams pay a significant rent though, so the clubs can spend a decent amount on getting the pitch up to standard or at least enough to repair it in the worse cases. £100k, if that is correct is nothing compared to the damage to the pitch. We spent £20k at least this season on reseading it, and that was just the cheaper option available which is now showing. |

The last time I spoke to Marcus a few weeks ago he said that the club had only spend £10k out of the whole season's £20k budget. Most of that was on a spiking machine to try and relieve some of the compaction. It is seriously underfunded. |

If Rovers were the "home" side then we would technically HAVE to be the away fans. Atleast we'd fill the bank... |
