[greggyk]

Looks like Franny Jeffers will be starting instead of the injured Roberts tonight.

Anyone know how bad Roberts' knee injury is?

1-1

This is why we still need one more striker! I said before a while back that unless we signed a 3rd good striker, we have still got a crap selection of frowards. I mean, who's better, Dickov or Jeffers?

We're gunna get stuffed tonight

[DanLad]

Looking at the first three games I thought that 4 points would be a reasonable haul.

We'll still get 4 points out of the three games, but by the most unlilely route possible. We all know Rovers. Get beat by Portsmouth, flukey draw with Everton and then beat Chelsea.

Everton preview here - When Skies are Grey.

Seems we aren't alone thinking that £36 is a bit steep for the game this year.

and then someone hit the reality button !

do you really think we will beat Chelsea ?

a dose of reality tonight will hit home and show us just how fragile our squad is at this present time.

Oh doom and gloom some may say, but really, I just forsee a very poor opening three results until we see a little more creativity in the team.

Uriah Rennie is ref

great

Uriah Rennie is ref

great

at the risk of looking like a fool later tonight, i am actually pretty happy to have rennie do our games. i know people may disagree, but he seems to take more kindly to us than many other referees, and he doesnt seem to bother much about players' reputations. (eg: pen against chelsea 2 years ago, wigan game at home last year etc)

[cn_barlow]

If Jeffers does get his first start then surely there is no better game for it...

All the pessimism on here makes me think we'll win...

2-0

Jeffers

McCarthy

[Hughesy]

I too was glad when i saw Uriah reffing the game. He usually lets a few more tough tackles go, which will suit this game.

Im confident that we can do them tonight.

2-1 rovers :ph34r:

Apparently at 1pm - Everton had around 2000 tickets left.

So how many exactly were they given? 8000?

COME ON YOU BLUES!!

[DudeAbides]

2-0 Toffees

Dingle quotes dont count..

[marvbfc]

doesnt specify that it is for rovers fans only to predict though

[CAPT KAYOS]

Ok before I set off...

After the pathetic display on Saturday I am going to stay positive despite Evertons good record at our place recently.

Therefore on the basis we should have backlash to hand the toffees and there is normally 2 goals + (totally different to games at Goodison) going for a 4-2 victory , and if reports are to be believed the fox in the box appearing on the goals scored column against one of his former employers.
