[Archived] ManU 0-0 super rovers

[RoyRover]

It sounds like we are living a charmed a life. United have hit the post a couple of times and have had some other efforts cleared off the line. Pedersen missed a sitter before half time, according to Charlie Nicholas.

David Thompson doesn't seem to be doing too well according to commentators.....

[Bijani]

Bring on Emo, Sparky!!!

[roversmum]

Usuall falling about by United players... and Riley being taken in

[Aussie_Rover]

The webcast i'm watching is funny in chinese

[roversmum]

Mokoena off - Brett on; looks as if Flitty's going in Mokoena's place.

[Bijani]

Emo for Mokoena?? I would have gone for Thompson. I dunno. Lets see what happens.

[James No. 7]

Who did Gallagher replace? I missed out on it when I went to get some food.

[MIROVER]

Pedersen

[Lathund]

Both teams were poor, many misplaced passes.

But five points from the away games against Liverpool, Everton and United is something we've got to be very happy about

Norwich and Crystal Palace lost.

Oh, and

Kieron Dyer and Lee Bowyer are dismissed at St James' Park for fighting each other, in front of a disbelieving Graeme Souness.

Well done, Rovers!

[Radagast]

Result.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Happy chappy here!!!

[Bijani]

Emo, oh dear.

[Blueboy Downunder]

excellent result rovers...well done to every single player....!!

[RoyRover]

Great result for Rovers, especially as Palace and Norwich both lost. It sounds like United totally dominated the match, but just couldn't break us down and that is a sign of how well we are playing at the moment. We have had 4 tough fixtures in a row and only lost one of them and that shows how far we have come under Hughes. We are edging our way to safety!

[SAS]

well i think thats the best case we could have hoped for and we got it.

The last 4 games should really have been all defeats, yet we got 3 points, and conceded just 1.

Now for the easier (i hope ) games

Those two players are out work now! Bowyer is a lunatic and Dyer is a spoilt brat, but I wouldn't mind having him on a free transfer!

[DE.]

Quality stuff, hats off to the Rovers.

[grizfoot]

And United move down to 3rd that makes it even better

What have you done with Philipl?

Well its what I think and feel about ManU. No doubt RFW and the chorus are reciting all the poor hard done by tales of missed chances and hitting the woodwork... diddums.

We have still got at least five or six games of outrageous good fortune to come before we are even with the scum.

Well Fergy has just been moaning about time keeping and rovers time wasting

Just watched the game on TV...

Great result, I was expecting to be unhappy about this time tonight, but a very solid and determined effort from the Rovers (without too many bookings too!).

Matteo did a superb job dealing with Ronaldo, surprisingly, Nelsen and Todd were excellent as well. However, I think the best Rover on the day was Mokoena.. not a foot wrong, and made so many great interceptions and tackles... Stead had a couple of chances, but I wasn't really expecting him to put any away, so I'm not going to slag him off. Thompson, Flitcroft and Neill had average games, Pedersen slightly better (could've scored with a header if he put a little more on it). Friedel made two great saves to deny Silvestre and Rooney, the post made two more, and Pedersen made another. Emerton and Gally didn't do anything while they were on.

Pleased
