[Archived] Rovers 0 Arsenal 2

[Esulx]

Mokoena has been booked now. Maybe that'll speed his exit from the field at half time.

[krislu]

Hate to say it but Mokoena has been god damm Awful so far, his first touch is too poor and costly against a team like Arsenal. Hughes needs to bring in Tugay at halftime.

Agree, he must be one of the worst players in the league..

[Lathund]

We're awful. Creating absolutely nothing, needlessly giving the ball away. Tugay must come on for Mokoena. Let's hope we see another second half surge.

The ref has been kind enough to give some major decisions our way (Could easily have been yellow/yellow or red/red for the Gilberto/Savage, and Neill could've been off), and we must take advantage of that.

[blue/white]

FFS! Neil again hacks down a player,concedes a free kick and goal! How many goals has this idiot helped conceded this season!

c'mon ... you can hardly blame Neill for that goal, it was brillantly taken.

I mean you can blame him, but it's hardly equivalent to a pk?

[Mr. E]

dammit i missed the end of the half with the goal, but until that point we were playing some pretty decent football. let's turn this around the 2nd half.

[AlanK]

FFS! That freekick was LONG away from goal! If you want to blame anyone for the goal, its Ooijer and Henchoz!!

If Neill hadn`t miscontrolled the ball then hacked the fella down there would never have a been a free kick.

[krislu]

If Neill hadn`t miscontrolled the ball then hacked the fella down there would never have a been a free kick.

So if you give away a corner and the other team scores because your keeper is making a howler, then its your foult they scored?

[Rovermatt]

Horrific stuff. We're creating nothing against ten men, indeed we're simply letting them play. Our defending for their goal was terrible.

[G Somerset Rover]

Comon Rovers! We've been playing as we did earlier in the season when we had all loads of possession and did eff all with it. The ten men have been having it far too easy.

[blue/white]

The Master has come on.

[Esulx]

Toogs on for Axe

[Wolverine]

Toogs is on for Axe - hooray!

Sorry, i know you don't need it three times...

[Finch]

nonda on for ooijer

[Esulx]

Attacking change. Let's show some passion boys.

[Finch]

We're doing more of the attacking now. The change is having an effect. Hope we don't get caught at the back.

[Daje]

Derbyshire was unlucky not to get a goal now

[Lathund]

Three sitters missed now.

[Finch]

aargh! Derbyshire misses a sitter!

[Mr. E]

how did Derbyshire miss on an open net ? that was our chance.

[Finch]

Aargh! 2-0 saw that coming a mile off

[Daje]

Great goal from Henry

0-2....

[Mr. E]

well when we cant score an a f***ing open goal they'll obviously score.

[blue/white]

Dammit.... almost 0-3 there.

[Finch]

Henry misses a sitter. Where was our defence?

[Rovermatt]

What a load of rubbish.
