I would have joined in myself but I was on 25% battery and needed enough to order a Chinese on the way home.

Pyro Pete 2,266 Posted January 6 The kid sitting in front of us, took off his Parka jacket and put it on backwards, so the hood covered his face. He promptly fell asleep on his mum's shoulder. Kids are smart these days. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nu_matik 184 Posted January 7 I have it on good authority that around 1000 tickets were mis-sold to middle aged women who thought they were at the stadium to see Chris Martins Coldplay, not Bristol Rovers and torch lights were to summon their big hit "A sky full of stars" but there were sadly none on show. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
