For information, Brentford play 8 league games less than EFL clubs, have no 3rd cup competition like the EFL Trophy and are not in Europe.
So Brentford and Frank can get fucked.

After Brentford's 1-1 draw with Wolves, manager Thomas Frank does not think there should be FA Cup replays ❌⬇️

I quite like the ones who are the first to wear a poppy every year yet don’t realise that those who died in two world wars were fighting the very beliefs these people possess.

As a white working class male, I literally have nothing in comment with the racist coke sniffer Tommy Ten Names.
He’s done nothing to highlight the abuse of children by white people, including EDL members.
@DPJHodges
It’s not hard. I support the right of Palestine to self govern yet oppose Hamas in every way. The two state solution takes both sides to parlay, and that also includes the awful Netanyahu government.
So I’m supporting a peaceful solution. That’s all.

@mrjamesob
Well done. It’s people like you who are driving people like me (a lifelong Labour voter) away. I want this incompetent government out more than anyone but you have to win by supporting and respectfully challenging people, not abusing them.
@sophielouisecc
Imagine starting with nothing, making the absolute most of your talents, and wanting to give something back to the society that supported you?
These two have got that nailed on.
@Kevin_Maguire
This was always going to be the case. I’m sick to death hearing the bullshit that 17.4 million people weren’t racist. A substantial proportion was entirely about ‘kicking out the forreners’ which is why no deal is so happily accepted by many. Pandora’s Box is well open.

He caused 70% of Hartlepool to vote for the National suicide pact known as Brexit by himself?

Many of us voted Labour in 2017 in the hope of a brighter future and one that would see the UK retaining a Customs Union with Europe. Right now, as a lifelong Labour supporter I truly feel politically homeless. If only the SNP could stand in Bristol.

Speaking as someone from Kingswood whose parents are still there.
Our worries are mostly around being able to afford enough food and a roof over our heads, having a functioning NHS and keeping the streets safe.
Demonising foreign people for the failures of govt is way down.
I pity all of you who were too young for 2/5/90, and mistakenly think that Browners goal was the greatest moment in Rovers history.
Nothing will ever, ever beat sticking 3 past City to go up to the Championship equivalent in a rented non league ground 15 miles from home.
@jessphillips
@antoniosteve
Yes, I do. At ground level, particularly amongst the White Working Class (of which you and I are both done), millions of people felt free to openly express their xenophobia and racism again.
Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel, and there are tons of scoundrels today.
Imagine supporting the club through thick and thin when losing at places like Braintree and Altrincham yet completely lose your shit when dropping to 13th in League 1.
This is truly the most ridiculous, and hypocritical, Gas Meltdown of all time.
Ok it’s got pillars, but so has the Thatchers End, and it’s functional rather than aesthetic, but I’m buzzing to see this on Tuesday. Going to help the atmosphere so much to have the sound bouncing back from there rather than lost somewhere up Muller Road.
Just a thought. Instead of blaming
@Official_BRFC
for things that are outside of their control maybe we should look in the mirror and wonder we we got in the habit of so many pointless pitch invasions?
Apparently, Rovers currently being shite means that we aren’t allowed to laugh at City’s misfortunes.
Bollocks to that, it’s written in my DNA to despise that lot with every fibre of my being.
That win tonight is entirely on MT changing tactics and being decisive. Wouldn’t have happened at the Mem as the crowd would’ve been absolutely toxic.
Those people who have never given him a chance, still want him out and pine for the old manager can get stuffed.

I’ve been comparing the Daily death toll to the number who died at Hillsborough. Yesterday was near enough 11 Hillsboroughs in just one day.
This is my 8th day with Covid, and 4th day of self isolation. Trust me, If anyone thinks that spreading this amongst your loved ones over Xmas is a good thing I would urge you to think again. This is literally a matter of life and death.
@Colston_Hall
I have to admit that 3 years ago I was in the ‘you can’t change tradition’ camp, based on seeing so many of my favourite acts there. After much self reflection I admit that I was wrong, and the memories of the last 36 years will still be there.
Three things in life are certain - Death, taxes and Bristol City fans blathering on about their divine right to be in a league they haven’t participated in since their formation 38 years ago.
Hi Sunderland fans, you’ve had a shit few years. Diddums.
Come back to me when you’ve supported a club that has been going for 136 years without making the top flight. Also, try spending a year or two in the Conference to experience real shiteness.

@MirrorFootball
Because we have over a hundred professional football teams in England, most of whom are rooted in their communities.
No B team should ever be allowed in, especially on the back of Petro dollars sport washing.
@DrJoGrady
Was listening when driving to work. Straight after Ferrari was defending Gavin Williamson’s comments suggesting a colleague should commit suicide.
The man is a total hypocrite. A Tory cheerleader, not a journalist.
First home game at every club this coming season - both teams take the knee in solidarity with Rashford, Sancho and Saka.
Anyone booing gets hounded out of the ground and given a lifetime ban from going to football.
Who’s with me?

@mshedbristol
I’ve just come back from Manchester after a weekend there. The progression there makes Bristol look like the parochial backwater it is.
A leader with a vision for everyone makes such a difference.
IMHO an unhappy JCH at BS7 would be a lot more damaging for Rovers this season than a million plus and no JCH.
Thank you for 18 months and your goals, good luck playing for the rich man’s wet dream that is Peterborough. We go again...

No one is interested in your bullshit internet theories.
People, loved ones, are dying in massive numbers. Go fuck yourself.
Just woke up in Southmead hospital having had my gall bladder out. Don’t feel too bad. The staff here are amazing, so very impressed with
@NorthBristolNHS
. Big love to you all.
29 quid a game? If I didn’t have a ST it would be out of my price range for every game.
With the cost of living the way it is for thousands of fans I really think we need to look at our pricing structure, as the price elasticity is starting to snap for many.
'Following a successful test event on Wednesday night, the club is now able to increase the capacity in the Brunel South Stand to 75%, for our game versus Exeter.'
An update on the South Stand's increased capacity, and the ticketing information. 👇

This film came out 9 years ago. Literally everything you are complaining about was in there now, and the film was hailed as a warning against fascism.
So, why now?

too, mate coming with me is a member who is on strike.
People telling fellow Rovers fans to ‘piss off to Ashton’ for having an alternative opinion is the absolute worst. Especially when they have not just supported through thin and thinner, but frequently gone the extra mile.
Respect what binds us all, stop being dickheads.
We deserve to know who has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder of a British soldier, and where they are from. NO COVER UP. If not a British citizen, then immediate deportation on conviction should beckon.
If Rovers get someone today, great.
If Rovers don’t get anyone in today, also great.
If Collins goes and doesn’t get replaced, fine
If he stays, also fine.
Whatever happens we ain’t going up and we probably aren’t going down.
Not going to waste my day stressing about it
I hope that in 4 years time
@bbcrb
give the 40th anniversary of Rovers leaving Eastville the same levels of sycophantic nonsense they gave City today.
For an impartial broadcaster it was total one eyed cheerleading. Embarrassing work by all concerned.
Had the results through and it was positive. I’ve got Covid. And I’m classed as clinically extremely vulnerable, so the next 10 days are going to be fun. 😱
@Kevin_Maguire
Sophie Raworth was totally out of her depth. Trying to peddle the Mail’s ‘exclusive’ (which was also published by them last May) is classic false equivalence.
Sad to see a once mighty institution like the BBC kowtow to those like the Mail who want it abolished
