Your questions to JR

[Bristol Red Rover]

Absolutely bjw, this should have been done a long time ago. Perhaps it's just an association thing  not unlike some of the daft things said on 'his' forum and on facebook.

What do you mean by 'his' forum?

Maybe the one he's a member of. Interestingly, that forum is by definition an expression of the membership of the new group.

Exactly we have tried to cover this issue elsewhere in another thread.
JR if you genuinely want to gauge the opinions of our supporters then why join a new forum when a forum already exists with 2000+ members ?
Surely a man like you could best gain the opinion of a vast % of our support if indeed you were at all interested  in canvassing opinion.
You have committed a massive faux pas here when you have shown only an interest in " yes " supporters.......clearly this is not a path to follow !
You have shown disdain now for both this forum representing more Rovers supporters than anywhere else as well as the VSC.........what are you playing at ?

Is the earth really flat?

[Alickismyhero]

Hools,

 are you trying to trick Ryan in to an answer that will expose his real, devious objective? shame on you!

I really do think Ryan's fiendishly cunning plan will backfire on him. What he is creating is a major split in the club supporters and he would have been better off being a little conciliatory and keeping the majority on board.

A small clique of yes people on an obscure forum is hardly likely to set the world on fire and be a threat to VSC in fact a large majority of that forum still feel the need to comment on the VSC proving the new forum  is a complete waste of space.

Is this the direction Ryan is taking us? dividing supporters?

It's one thing to ask, another thing to question.

What difference does having vast proven wealth make if you're not prepared to spend any of it above anything other than to sustain the club?

If I remember they actually spent more than the minimum need to sustain the club - Tamas, Meite, Wellens, Sharp - all cost money that were over the minimum budget?
I also don't recall many posts following these signings that suggested we needed more players to avoid the drop, which would suggest most people were happy with the team at that time.

So they went against their principles, and everyone was happy when they brought players with the hope of securing Championship status. I didn't hear of any complaints from those who opposed over spending, wnen TB and co did that.

As has been said before, it was obvious that we needed a striker from very early on in the season, and if we'd had got Billy earlier, or somebody of that quality, we'd have stayed up.

Last season, Sharp scored for us at the rate of one goal every 3.8 starts. Theo Robinson scored at the rate of one goal every 3.8 starts. So the owners last year DID bring in "someone of that quality" early on in the season.

[Bentley Bullet]

BST. The difference in quality between Sharp and Robinson meant that our opponents had to adopt a much less gung ho style when Sharp played because they couldn't throw everyone forward because of their respect of the danger Sharp posed. He was also marked more closely because of this. Like you have pointed out Sharp still matched Robinson for goals, despite this. It's also worth pointing out that prior to Sharp's sending off at Brighton, we were 3rd in the form table.

What is best, Cossack or Silvikrin?

[Bentley Bullet]

When did Silvikrin manage us?

[hoolahoop]

When did Silvikrin manage us?

It was just after " The Great War of Thog" . Cossack was defeated and his body was quartered and sent to the four corners of the planet Minge to serve as a lesson to the Frecks that the uprisings had to stop.
Incidentally the planet Minge ignored this lesson and the Thundernecks from the 4th. Quasar took over the whole of planet Minge .
More of this to follow as details of this takeover emerge.,....

[Bentley Bullet]

Knowing that half the population were all for the takeover, the Thundernecks thought it was prudent to enter Minge while it was split down the middle.

Were either of them Eire internationals?

[PDX_Rover]

No chance of Harmony making an appearance is there?

 ger Lord Kirkham to put in

[River Don]

Kirkham doesn't show any interest in football. I think he has given money to rowing in Henley on Thames.
