[Archived] Spurs V Rovers

[RevidgeBlue]

Excellent first half from us in terms of all round play and possession, but reminded me a bit of the first half v Charlton in that we were very wasteful with our final ball and had a tendancy to try and hit one pass too many at times.

Fantastic goal, wonderful cross from MGP and finish from Benni.

Same again second half lads!

Typical Sky commentary - because Spurs weren't 4-0 up after half an hour, it was a drab game according to them.

Ho hum off to the pub to watch the second half. Tough old life. Maybe my "drinking buddy" will be there.

[LeChuck]

Rev, it wasn't a penalty (wasn't a free kick either, but keepers being over protected isn't unusual) and it is a dull game.

Hopefully it will stay dull though as this would be a great result. The cross by Pedersen was superb and McCarthy never misses those.

[Mike Graham]

half time on Radio 5 and the tosser says firstly it is one nil to Middlesboro at Spurs and then that Benni Mac was yet again the Boro scorer....are they bonkers?

[Finch]

half time. 1-0 not bad so far. Samba and Nelson have done well MGP has been brilliant.

The stewarding has been a little over done in our end though.

[cn174]

Rob Styles getting card happy again..

[Daremz]

If that was a yellow for MGP I'm the queen of wales. Ref is a shame for his sort.

[ABBEY]

nob piles is losing the game...axe lucky not to get 2 yellows and then mgp gets yellow and a free kick given for kicking the ball ..is tackling and ball contact not allowed no more?

[Daremz]

SO close.

[jim mk2]

Samba hit the bar .... should have scored.

[Daremz]

No. Drama.

Come on. Someone. Just anyone. Score that Rovers-goal.

[cn174]

Samba's miss could cost us here

COME ON ROVERS!!!!

[Finch]

since they scored we can't get out of our half.

[Daremz]

Really questioning myself which of those teams played 3 matches in the last 5 days. Still, I have faith in a shock Bentley-winner. We deserve that, only for once.

[Rovermatt]

Roberts off. Well done. Well done.

[brfc4ever]

Somebody better fine Roberts. What a fool !

[ABBEY]

prick commentator....keane was a post width off a winner......PILLLOCK SO WAS SAMBA.

ROBERTS HARSH.

[krislu]

Somebody better fine Roberts. What a fool !

You're a fool! It was NEVER a yellow card, the second yellow was just the ref being a complete idiot!

[Guest shoppybrfc]

At least Roberts misses the next match! He's been awful all game, terrible terrible control, he's skill and technique remind me so much of Kuqi.

[Mr. E]

well, it's over.

and, as always, the referee can go f*** himself.

[Exiled_Rover]

Common sense - lost on Premiership officials. Never a booking in the first place, a ridiculous second for the red. Idiots.

Good result, if you take it out of context. You'd take a draw at White Hart Lane everytime.

[cn174]

Fair result I guess. We had the better of the first half and they had the better of the second. Got back into it a bit when Derbyshire came on but didn't get enough decent chances after that.

Intertoto it is then!!

[ABBEY]

Somebody better fine Roberts. What a fool !

IMAGINE A UTD,CHELSEA ,ARSE OR LIVERPOOL GETTING SENT OFF FOR THE SAME??

THEY WOULDNT GET ONE YELLOW...ROOONEY CALLS REFS EFFING THIS EFFING THAT SPITS AND STILL GETS AWAY WITH IT.

[modes98]

We're playing 12 again, we're playing 12 again, we're playing 12 again!

Ref was a disgrace, he broke up at least 5 rovers moves on the edge of their box by getting in the way.

Decent enough first half display, then matched by the awful defending in the second and the lack of energy thrown into the last 30mins. Roberts left alot to be desired but the sending off was a joke, performances of note: Brett, MGP, Benni, Warnock and Tugay.

[Roost]

Bentley VERY poor in the first half and didnt break sweat in the second.

Any ideas what this means for the INTERTOENAIL shinnanigins

[Guest Kamy100]

Great effort by the lads but I guess in the end a draw was a fair result. The two big chances for me were when Bentley failed to pass to McCarthy in the first half when he was completely clear and of course the Samba header.

Still proud of the lads and I guess the Intertoto it is then.
