Eddie Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Per ESPN Warnock came out because of a "stomach problem." I'm guessing that's illness over injury. At least, I hope so. Said the same thing on Sky.
Ricky Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 4 games without conceding a goal always helps. As soon as we have tightened up we were always capable of nicking this one. What a great birthday present for Jordan, that'll be one happy yorkshireman
Macky Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 I'd echo that statement. Mokoena continues to improve and showed some nice touches and passes, even did the odd little bit of skill. I couldn't believe my eyes when Mokoena did a cruyff turn....another great game for the AXE! Also impressed with Chrissy Samba, very composed on the ball! World class strike by Benni....his celebration when he went up to the bench suggested he was bitter about being a sub!
Exiled in Toronto Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Two bits of quality won it for us; Dunn's pass on the turn and then Benni after that. Our substitutions changed the game I thought. Dunn was playing 30 yards further up than had Tugs and Benni found space Noonda didn't look for. Man of the match for me was Samba, closely followed by t'Axe and Brad. This is our year
ABBEY Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 get in there!!! awsome poll what a knob!!!!! freddy dives ! no bookings whats that all about .. every rover he booked he raced over like linford critie with the squits every arsenal player ..every hahaha he sort of put the card up 10 yards away. wenger..on r5 the pitch was to blame because it didnt help them and as for that prick on radio0 5 who said rovers are quiete and dont sing and that blackburn had never witnessed noise like the arse fans tonight ..well dick whats the score go and inject some city smog!!! oh yes no work so i think one or two stellas time
sleepyjack Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 What made the goal perfect was Poll falling on his face just after Dunn played in Benni.
Friarsnig Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 What a fantastic result, and a cracking goal from Benni. But we really rode our luck tonight against a far from full strength Arsenal - another day we'd have been three down at half time and finished with 9 men. And Rovers gave a fine display of how to give the ball away in midfield. Nevertheless, there was plenty to be positive about, and I think the second half substitutions made all the difference. I was impressed by Samba and Nelsen's work. Nice one Rovers. Happy 40th for me tomorrow!
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 BELIEVE!!!!! NO Only 14,000 Rovers fans there tonight....you weren't on your own .........What we lacked in numbers we made up for with noise!
ABBEY Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 BELIEVE!!!!! Only 14,000 Rovers fans there tonight....you weren't on your own .........What we lacked in numbers we made up for with noise! 14k???? it was well packed on bbe,jack walker steel,although riversiders must have been on the night shift ..there seemed a lot more than 18k on
Billinge End Blue Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Da da da da da da da, da da da da da da daaaaaa Super Rovers...........you make me happy! Great win, bring on citeh.... Wembley. wembley?
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 I thought more than 14,000 Rovers too Abbey but there were about 4,000 from the Arse....Riverside did look sparse though???? Abbey, that 'knob' denied Arsenal maybe 2 stonewall penalties pal . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. ROVERS DO IT AGAIN......JUST £15 FOR SEASON TICKET HOLDERS V CITEH!!
ABBEY Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 didnt think they were pens....defo not on brad ,1st freddy dive?thoght outside and then he launched himself,the 2nd freddy dive he looked like a shot grouse and the third i was still jumping up and down.
cn174 Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Abbey, that 'knob' denied Arsenal maybe 2 stonewall penalties pal Debatable! The first one he kicked one leg into Friedel and went down. The second one was a foul but was outside the box. If it had been given and we'd seen it again on telly, we'd be a bit unhappy about it!
Mike Graham Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 14k???? it was well packed on bbe,jack walker steel,although riversiders must have been on the night shift ..there seemed a lot more than 18k on fantastic noise from the BBE; but sorry, from the JW upper the BBE lower only looked 60% to 70% full, and the BBE Upper was only 20% full (empty?). The fans however were fantastic; just imagine what it would have been like if we scored against the Germans last wek.
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 After seeing the replay on the telly folks in my opinion we got lucky with the penalty claims....VERY lucky!! There is a god!
Eddie Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 The first wasn't a penalty for me and the second was outside of the box (just), although at first I feared the worst. We were certainly very lucky, but we've had a host of bad decisions this season so we shouldn't feel too bad when a couple go our way.
ABBEY Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 not seen them again but with all decisions thats gone against us in past few years i dont give a frogwenger
dillo_dillo Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Funny team news Blackburn (4-4-2) Arsenal (1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1) Guardian's live text. http://football.guardian.co.uk/news/matchr...=rss&feed=5 and "Blackburn are at the bottom of the fair-play league" Really? "the German commentator made a point of mentioning that Blackburn were nicknamed 'Blackeye' Rovers in England" What is 'Blackeye'?
ABBEY Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 bloody hell dillo were did you find that??wengers laptop... you are famous on radio rovers
cn_barlow Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Just got home now...here are a few of my oservations.... Samba and Mokoena were both immense tonight in my opinion!! The axe is really benefitting from an extended run in the team. Pedersens final product was terrible...why the hell does he take corners?! Graham Poll is a terrible referee!!!
ABBEY Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 check this haahaha poll was biased to us...tugs should have walked..dunny should of got straight red....blame wenger hahahaaha..injuries and suspensions were too much.....bring steve bould back...Very tired of teams like Blackburn getting away with a win, just because refs are reluctant to use the second yellow. It’s about simple calculation, for Blackburn 3-5 yellow cards for a win (by disrupting our game) is still a good pay off.........coaches didnt teach them how to shoot...benni is to good for us....a poor blackburn side....lack of leadership.....buy eto are you watching arsehole whinger
promoted2001 Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Holy crap that was awesome! Emerton attempted to rape Ljunberg but considering the amount of decisions that went against us in the past it's even now. Bring on Man City then hopefully we're off to Cardiff and then Wembley! Hopefully
dillo_dillo Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 bloody hell dillo were did you find that??wengers laptop... you are famous on radio rovers Same name, another person.
