How long have you been following Rovers and what was your first game?
Can’t remember what the first game was but I guess I started supporting Rovers a year or maybe 2 after we were relegated back to the 3rd division
What is your most memorable moment following the gas?
Wembley’s up there but for personal reasons I’ve seen us batter and be battered by, my Dad’s side Burnley. Also, Ashton Gate last season was incredibly enjoyable as my first live Bristol Derby
Who is your all time favourite player?
Difficult to say but my first rovers hero was John Taylor, although we all love the legend that is Tilson
What would you say is the best goal you have seen us score?
There are so many for various reasons so whilst not the best by any means I will only say the most enjoyable given the moment, Igoe at wembley.
Best away ground visited?
Either Hawthorns or Pride Park but following Rovers it’d be Bournemouth’s place (not been to many gas away matches, mainly clarets)
What are your thoughts on the proposed new stadium?
Absolute shambles – always a tough scheme but one which has failed to come anywhere near reality. I believe due to poor management, especially of stakeholders’ expectations (fans, chelt/yeovil/city/swindon/rugby clubs of bristol and newport; potential hoteliers and potential student flats funders; also, what’s happened to the other outlets….)
Which player(s) would you like to see us sign (realistically)?
Ade Akinbiyi
Which player would you like to see leave the club?
Haldane
What are your thoughts on how last season ended and how did it compare to your expectations?
Ended very poorly but my expectations were always for a season of ups and downs, including fleeting thoughts of playoffs but also struggling near the bottom for a period and ending between 16th and 19th (usually I’m pants with predictions but feel I was pretty much spot on ). However, I’m still disappointed with how it finished and the circumstances with which our survival occurred so though I very much enjoyed the majority of last season (by the remaining 3/4 matches I wanted the season to end) I was disappointed overall.
What are your expectations for next season?
Another struggle – mind you we’re spending enough so they should be much higher and a successful season for me (based on the knowledge to date) would be nothing short of 12th. Just can’t tell though….
Where do you sit at the Ground?
I don’t, I stand Uplands Terrace
Name the celebrity you would most like to bang
Right now, the american/greek girl ‘Kalomira’ who performed the Greek eurovision song but beggars can’t be choosers so I’ll take whoever

Dont remember what she looked like that Greek bird, but there were a few stunners this year. Very brave of you to admit to watching it. Akinbiyi, now that would be a signing and a half
The City game was amazing, thanks for reminding me again and Igoe’4 last minute saviour was great too, it almost seemed like a very slow motion goal, i think i just stood there mouth open in anticipation and it almost felt like i was deaf throughout the goal passing into the net. I was definitely deaf afterwards, all that shouting, and i lost me voice too GREAT DAY
Good read mate, well done. playing City was one of the best days of my life
Nice read mate, agreed about CITY, one of my better games
As much as i hate the city though, they are miles ahead in the PR/STADIUM/CHAIRMAN/ST SALES stakes, makes me sick, we could be so much bigger and better if it wasn’t for *$£”^$£”^$&$^”£^$!&^”$ (Fill in the Blanks)
Oooopss sorry forgot to say, good article well done
