You're tinpot if.......

You're tinpot if you sing will Griggs on fire and claim it as your own song.

 

Your a tinpot club, if you lend the opposition your own kit to knock you out of the league

 

You're tinpot if you're ground still has pillars

 

somebody nips down to greggs for pies to sell at half time.

 

You're tinpot if you're obsessed with your neighbours and their rapid rise.

 

Rapid Rise

April 2001.. Gas 1 v City 1...last league meeting.. 15 years ago.

Mind the gap.

 

You're tinpot if you've been the worst team in your city for 15 years

Tbf banter threads are there for taking the piss out things. Laughing at your rivals is not being obsessed

 

Reading through all your rivals threads scanning for a mention of your 'in the shadow for yet another season' team is though..

 

I would say it's pity rather than jealousy
And going from being a non League team to a 3rd Division one isn't exactly Champions League stuff now is it.

 

If your fans are that deluded that they think it's a rapid rise, when it's really from non league to scraping through third placed in league two.

 

Fair enough, as you green-eyed chaps have only ever experienced consecutive relegations rather than consecutive promotions you probably don’t understand the concept of a ‘rapid rise’.


That and the fact that you’re still obsessed with us x.

 

Where you been anyway? Locked up again for shagging cakes in Sainsburys

 

Worth bearing in mind that it's only a rapid rise because you plunged to the lowest depths that any Bristol club has ever been.

 

A snail arching its back would be a better description of a 'rapid rise'...

Still checking in to see if were talking about you then.xx..

 

I only shag the Welsh Cakes petal

 

Your a tinpot nation if; you are so desperate for players at a major finals you include aplayer who broke his leg a couple of weeks ago.

I could see the gamble if it was Bale, but Ledley is extremely average

 

you are tinpot if you put sentiment before form hope England do not go thirsty !!!!!!
