How many teams have played in two finals, one at the the millenium stadium and one at wembley in the same season?
The answer at the moment is none.
Come tomorrow evening Chelsea will be the only team to have done it. Come next saturday Bristol Rovers will be the second team.
Unlucky lads, had your bit of glory with your promotion but the gas have outshone you!!
Goodnight Irene... |

So Jammer, let me get this right:
So far this season, Rovers have achieved nothing. You lost in JPT, you haven't won the playoffs yet, and You've said your self that you wont even be the 1st side to play in Finals at Wembley and Cardiff.
So what is your point Jammer? Have things got so desperate at Rovers that you have to Celebrate not quite doing anything?

Come next saturday Bristol Rovers could have the record of being the only team to ever lose two finals, one at the the millenium stadium and one at wembley in the same season. That will certainly outshine us in the stakes of gaining records to be ashamed of this season! |

My point was that only 2 teams have ever been in a final at wembley and at the millenium stadium. I didnt say anything about winning or losing them!
And as for achieving 'nothing' we have a good young manager, we have improved immensely on last season, we are having our stadium developed, earnt sh!t loads of money from an LDV trophy final and a playoff final, beaten a team who got promoted to the championship and got rid of the old arse of a chairman...
That enough phil?

I had to laugh at the Rovers singing "are you watching Ashton Gate" at the end. All the city fans are so jealous that they're going to be stuck in the championship, not enjoying a big day out against the mighty MK or Shrewsbury to win promotion to the promised land of league 1.
Fair play to Steve Phillips though last night, he's tried his best to keep Rovers down, at least twice he actually dived out the way of the ball, and he carried it into his own net, but the ref saw through his plan and disallowed it. Really we should have loaned boom boom McCombe back to Lincoln for the night, never mind its funnier watching the Gas embarrass themselves in a bigger game, 2-0 in the first 5 mins has to be on the cards again.
Tell you one thing the City fans will be jelaous of gasheads for next season though and that is the price of tickets. £30 in the Dolman next season! |

Sorry lads I didn’t join in with the current debate because all this championship league talk has gone way over my head! It sounds like the Everton fan is the biggest expert in this department though.
If you want me to bring myself down to that level I would like to say good luck to Rovers at Wembley but your season hasn’t come close to what City have achieved this season.

I'm not an expert on anything Shippers. I'm just a man with an opinion, just like everyone else!
What you may have noticed though, Is that I really love winding people up! It's easier with some people than with others!
Getting back to the rovers; I'm quite glad they made it to the final. It gives us another chance to see Steve Phillips play. His performance last night was the funniest thing i've seen in months!!!
On another subject, did you see the end of season player stats for the premiership? The most fouled player in the premiership was the Legendary Mikel Arteta. Fouled over 140 times. All of them in the 2 games against Liverpool!!!

Please note any other City supporters "congratulating" Rovers will be banned from the forum indefinitely.
I expect it from Nick as he's already crossed to the dark side. |
