I don't like any of them. Sorry Mike. Why sorry? I think at least half of them will be pleased to get a left swipe.

I thought it was Mike Kay? is he the brother of Peter Kay, the chap that writes the History of Bristol Rovers books when he's not performing stadium comedy gigs? you can see the overlap, stadium comedy and all that. Bet the bloke can't believe his luck

Bet the bloke can't believe his luck No no. It's much more subtle than that. Both Harry Buckle and Bambi are competing for the title of Prince Machiavelli. I do think though that Harry should settle being likened to Dante, his words on here being comparable to the publication Divine Comedy. Bambi, on the other hand, has always favoured effectual truth over actual truth.

You’re on fire today AMPG. He ain't nuffink I’m guessing you know each other oldie ? I was always drawn to the older supporters when at Eastville and because of their knowledge but, more so, the gallows humour that set us apart from the other lot. I just settle for any humour now. where did that ability to laugh at ourselves go eh ? I still go and stand by the guys in their 70’s at half time. The humour is still there, on match days at least

Not wanting to boast, or become an ITK but if what I have heard is true, Ken Masters is lucky he wasn't banned from the club. Perhaps he has told the SC a load of bollox. in the information vacuum, this will spread and become 'the truth' I think has it leaked yet? also, is there any sign of GT getting the sides together as he discussed on HAG

Look- we all know Ken asked a fan to tell the forum the CEO was at Plymouth instead of a Rovers game and make noise about it. We know when fan refused, Ken forgot to change text threads and replied ‘he won’t do it Steve’ or similar to the fans phone. We know Starnes had clubs permission to attend the Plymouth game. All this came out at last AGM, most people saw the screen shots of the texts and frankly I’ve no idea why that alone wasn’t enough to ask BRSC to replace him. Fairly obviously whilst the camels back just remained in tact with that incident, something happened to break it eventually. The share agreement clearly say they can ask for a Fans Director to be replaced, and/ or refuse to accept any new Director nominates and ask for another new candidate to be found. Neither clause requires them to give cause. It could be because his suit is shiny, we’ll never know because BRSC didn’t build the right to know into the Agreement. The Share Agreement was signed by a number of people including current BRSC committee members. Accordingly the only thing that needs sorting now is Mr Masters position in the Trust, I can see no reason why he shouldn’t continue his good works there, including entertaining Trust guests in the hospitality areas. Perhaps all can save a s*** load of solicitors getting richer, because it really is that simple. I am again now leaving the building having got real issues to deal with. Don’t bother replying. Any chance you could direct me to that thread on the forum as I'm pretty sure KM texted the now departed forum member and just said "what would fans think?" or words to that effect, the forum member took that to imply KM wanted it posted but I can't recall KM actually asking it to be posted any mention or "Steve" it could have just been an exchange of texts between two Gasheads who knew each other. Although then "Maddog", who could well be "Steve" posted it on Gaschat anyway. Although whether he had permission or not it seems a damn cheek to me our CEO deciding he's sooner watch his former employers team play than his own, imagine a CEO of a non sporting major company doing that, there would uproar in the business press.

The text messages eventually did the rounds and KM was deliberately trying to destabilise something with those messages hence the context of them. That should have been enough for him to fall on his sword then. Then a poster “Maddog” popped up, and he started the rumour which KM wanted starting within 24 hours that severncider refused to play ball with, which was one of Hamer’s alter egos, who gave himself away by thinking I was Tony Watola after I hinted at some information which he well and truly bit at.

If even 1% of that is true then I seriously question the mental acuity of the participants of that sordid little episode and therefore their ability to hold any kind of executive position.

Pretty much what I would expect of Ken. He's an odd little bloke. There was always something not quite right. He couldn't ever explain to me why it was exactly that he wanted to be on the Board of the FC, it all felt a bit cloak and daggers. And talk about volatile!

Not sure exactly what went on in the Plymouth gate saga but you can be sure there were rights and wrongs on both sides For example what was Starnes doing in the Plymouth boardroom when we were playing? This only gives ammunition to the opposition I am not a big fan of Barry Bradshaw but you could be sure Barry was in the boardroom on Saturday and mid week representing Bristol Rovers no matter where we were playing Compare that with box 1 when Doncaster were our opponents completely empty We need to get our act together.With only two directors now ,one of whom ,has been in Jordan for a few weeks and the other off on holiday this does not set a good example of management with its fingers on the pulse of the club

MS could have been there for all sorts of reasons. Whatever those reasons were they were sanctioned by the club so it didn't matter, especially when we had Steve and Ken as well as the owner there on that day who I take it were more than capable to hold the fort!! In their own eyes at least.
BB is a hardcore Rovers fan more than anything else and is a good guy with it. He goes to almost every game.
Wael cannot help being in Jordan currently, if you had the same circumstances, you would be too and football would be taking a back seat. TG is a very capable individual and I'm sure we can manage for a week without MS.

And taking a hol after the transfer window seems the right choice and I don't know what all the fluff is about with the Plymouth thing - networking is important in any business

The fuss, not your post. Can you imagine employing somebody and expecting them to cut all links with people they've known from their last place of work? Utterly ridiculous. You just need to trust people to act sensibly and protect your interests. And if you don't trust them, you shouldn't have employed them in the first place. It's Women who are supposed to be a nightmare with this office politics stuff. It's all pathetic.
