[Archived] The Final Curtain - Rovers V Man City

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Rover 1 Citeh 0

How good will it be to relax and celebrate this wonderful season.

Att : 5,600 ..... with 5,599 from Citeh

[Ste B]

Considering that we already secured 6th place 

I think we should start with these players:

Todd

Emerton

Tugay

Todds had a knee op, or so Sky Sports said.

Tugay will get a rest now, as I think we probably brought him back earlier than we would have wanted to.

Is Amo fit ???? Could use a laugh, and it would wind Jan up no end

[Oklahoma]

Thanks for the info.

Well, Amo could get a final game for Rovers.

I think we should rest the players who played the most.

Maybe Gresko on the left and Matteo in the centre.

And Bentley in Tugay's place.

[rog of the rovers]

Lets see the youngsters!

Oh and the new Kit!

thats just akin to saying the fans dont need to turn up as there is nothing to play for.

Dont be so daft, we shoud rub city's face into it and seek to get 3 points. Hughes is an ex red, he will want to show city that he shows no mercy, Rovers have no need to wind down, we want 3 points and to finish the season on a high irrespective of already sealing 6th place.

full team please, no kuqi or dickov I agree but please everyone else that is available shoudl be on the team list

And a great opportunity to put it on sale to the fans before/after the game.

Some of the changes are almost necessary: Todd, Nelsen, Reid might not be able to play.

Ok, maybe Dickov shouldn't play. Bellamy in his place then.

[SuperStella]

Anyone else wearing hawaiian shirts and taking beach balls and other inflatables?

LETS PARTY!!!!

[ihtd]

Are we having a massive party at full-time? Were is everyone meeting for drinks at full-time by any chance as for once we have something to celebrate at the end of the season apart from avoiding relegation.

Bring on the beach balls!!!!!!!!

[sausagemandog]

forget resting players, this game does matter a lot to the fans who pay good money for the tickets. Most end of season ganes are drab affairs, lets have an exhibition of attacking football, its the only way to thank the fans.

[cn_barlow]

If Arsenal slip up on thursday then i t matters a hell of a lot as it means we can still finish 5th!

[Hughesy]

Saw Pearce at the game last night. Must of been spying for weekend.

Now that would be good if we could grab 5th place.

Id like to see gally given a chance next to Bellamy and Peter on the left rather than MGP

[roversWASmylife]

Forgot about potentially finishing 5th.

We need Arsenal to lose both games, City away and Wigan at home they've got.

Whether they rest more players than they did at Sunderland I don't know, after one of their players got injured the other day, might persuade Wenger to rest a few more.

At least everyone can enjoy the game on Sunday, no pressure either.

Rovers 2 - 0 City

[blue/white]

Maybe we can persuade some of those tough muthas at Barcelona to

ding up a few of the Arse in the meantime

[blinddevotion]

Break for WC players for next season as they have shorter summer. were still strong enough to win. Man city have no midfield

Enckelman (Brad Rest for WC)

Taylor (Give him a run)

Zurab (Not inWC, playing well)

Amo (Fill the gap, for Neill going to WC)

Gray (Not going to WC, playing Ok)

Bentley (needs more games,)

Mokoena (needs first team football)

Savage (Not, going to WC)

Peter (Needs experience, plus MGP has not played well since Spurs game)

Pongo (Final look)

Kuqi (Bellers 'back' to take summer break)

Subs: Dickvo, Gallagher, Emerton, Watt, Lee (GK)

brads not going to world cup, and i think we should play him to make him our only ever present this season

[Bobby G]

Brad doesnt even play for the States.

[blue/white]

Brad retired from Intl' duty 2 years ago.
