Saw these chaps at the Yeovilton Airday 2 years ago, it is pretty fucking amazing thing to witness, proper James Bond stuff. They are a couple of Bristolians I believe. |

They’ve been conned by Wael. They reckon he has paid off their enormous debt when, in fact, he’s just shifted it from one place to another - it would still fall at their feet.
When Wael first took over they claimed to have the sixth richest owners in all four leagues and it was only a matter of time before they over took their bigger neighbours! |

As I posted at the time. The "newly minted" Rovers is not as it seems, the new owners are in it for ground redevelopment and not investing in the team, they have given Clarke no funds for new signings because they do not have ready cash as they are property investors.
Rovers will have no more money than we have for new signings this summer and Clarke has been told to trim is squad.
But the injection of money at board level, paying off Rovers debts in the process, seemed to give them the impetus for a winning run towards the end of the season which gained them promotion, the feel good factor as it were pushing the fans and players on to 10 wins in 13 matches.

They've gone down the Williams footy route, all youth and very little experience being bullied out of games. In games for 1/2 hour until oppo runs over them easily We know how that ends. |

Not surprised as they were fourth when he left and won just 2 more games in the season. |

They should charge £5 for a few minutes with the sweary parrots. They'd make up the shortfall in funds in no time. Who's a pretty boy? Go piss up a rope, fuckstick. |

I don't know who changed the thing under PV's name (possibly PV himself) but "Tesco Value John Motson" made me smile quite a bit  |
