[Archived] Spurs V Rovers

[SouthAussieRover]

Spurs 1 Rovers 2.

[brfc fan]

My prediction:

1-2

(Defoe)-(Benni Mac, Robbo)

McCarthy and Roberts to continue the fantasic partnership they have formed recently.

Come on Rovers!

It's a must win game so you know what you've gotta do!

[James No. 7]

2-1 to Rovers.

[Roar of the Rover]

The players know they have to do it, like againts Newcastle and they will.

Spurs 1 Berbatov

Rovers 2 McCarthy, Pedersen

[Daremz]

Have you just come down with the last shower Morten? We certainly have won many night away games over the years, far too many to list here even if I could remember them all. As a sample that knocks down your numbers 2 & 4 in one go:

Fulham v Rovers about 4 years ago. Rovers scored 4; one from the Turkish guy we had on loan and whose name escapes me, and another from Amoruso with a fantastic header, cant remember our other scorer's but pretty sure one was Cole. This was a night match at Craven Cottage.

Just hitting some trivia-action into these boards. Well done lads, you've all made it to the second round!!

[Finch]

Just seen the team sheet. I dont see keane in the list! we tend to lose when he plays.

Just got to my seat. We are in the upper tier again ... Getting a bit of virtigo

[Finch]

... As you were - Keane is on the bench.

[Daremz]

We don't have anything on the bench with exception of Derbs. And where are all the midfield players fgs? Anyways, faith. That is. Good luck boys!

[ABBEY]

C"MON ROVERS

[Daremz]

Are we leading yet? MGP bicycle kick?

[Daremz]

We need to keep the tempo up, that'll kill them. Now the match is settling, and that's not what we need. Bang in a goal Benni, bang in a goal.

[USRoverME]

Malbranque off after the knock from the Moko yellow, Ghaly on.

[Rovermatt]

Benni. What a beauty! 1-0.

[USRoverME]

Benni! Get in!

[ABBEY]

MGP CROSS PURE PERFECTION!!!

[Daremz]

As I said Benni, score that goal. Well done, great cross by MGP by the way. And now kill them and into Europe we go !

[revolutionrock!]

Get those ###### passports out

[Daremz]

AH Bentley. You should have passed Benni in there, that would have been 0-2...

[RevidgeBlue]

Anyone see Rob bloody Styles after Robinson flattened Samba in the area.

That could quite easily have been called a penalty in my view yet the foul was given against Samba.

As Samba received treatment, Stiles was chatting and laughing with Robinson and playfully feeling his bicep. When samba recovered Stiles didn't even ask how he was, just peremptorily waved him off the pitch!

[James No. 7]

"He's (McCarthy's) still not happy. Don't you like winners?" - Commentator

[Daremz]

If we can play such a second half, I have faith. But a full match full power is difficult for us. Still though, Spurs must feel tired...
