[Archived] Pre-season

[LDRover]

Totally echo the previous sentiments.

Having a fat head isn't enough anymore, the tache has to return...I can take or leave gum chewing.

[Captain Spaulding]

I've just been on the blower - if all fails, we've now got Bob Carolgees waiting in the wings, and he's promished never to shave it.

[Ben-2000]

Yes, agreed... BRING BACK THE TASH SAM (oh and a striker please!)

somebody start a facebook group

How come American Rover 12 can post a link to LET'S FIFA 09 which gives a full report on the Split v Rovers game at 20.00 hours and then other posts of during the game seem to come afterwards??

Well if he hasnt got spit the dog or cuddles the monkey he can GTFO too.

I know it's the lowest form of wit I just can't help myself. It's just about fitness at this stage.

You making sure your sarcasm is well practised before the City game ?

Exactly. The gum chewing can come later, I doubt it'll be a problem anyway. The priority has to be the tache and that needs to start now if there is anyway remotely possible that it will be ready for the City game. Sure, Sam may look a little silly at the Leeds and Sheff Weds matches, ("Has he run out of blades?" "Bum fluff" that sort of thing) but I think it's safe to say that by the time we play Dundee it should be firmly in place (and not a stick on replica either).

I konw it is terrible translated but you can see Pictures and Videos

the important thing is that Christian Vier did not play and that he is sent home so he will not sign any contract with Blackburn Rovers

[thenodrog]

I think we're being harsh on Brown, the first goal was a rocket and the second took a big deflection it looked like. He also made a world class save between the 2 goals.

Beaten on the near post from 25 yards? Not good for a keeper. BUT the major damage was done by Dunny's shyte control in the middle of the park..... Only beaten by Riise's for our first.

Oh and btw Pedersons penalty was the best penalty that I have seen taken by a Rovers player since Shearer was here.

[unleaded]

They already look tired!...............The goalscorer is worth bringing over for a trial.............

[thenodrog]

Unless there was a deflection I could have stopped that shot without using my hands.

[AggyBlue]

I reckon you could stop most goal attempts without using your hands. Just use your head

Sorry gord, stop setting yourself up

Confusing Dunn with Nzonzi?

Others no doubt will add appropriate comments 'drog.

[Tom]

I thought part of the blame for the goal v Roma should be with Gally, he belted a ball at someone else from about 4 yards away causing a move to break down. It was a series of errors really

And yes Pedersens penalty was unstoppable although it looked to be going wide

[philipl]

What on earth happened with that goal? We just gifted it.

That was a horrific injury to the Split player- and was he being taken away to be turned into fizzy orange pulp?

It was good to play a team in its last pre-season work-out at this stage in our preparations four weeks before our season begins.

[Billy Castell]

Who cares if we lost? It is pre-season, and these games are never going to be as intense as a league game. Hopefully we can get a striker or two, and a decent midfielder, then its all systems go.

Lee Carsley was the best penalty taker I've seen at Ewood ....

[Kelbo]

Looking at the goal, there did appear to be a defletion as Robinsons balance was on his right foot!!

As for the game, Split did look sharper, mainly down to them being three to four weeks in front of of Rovers in their preparatons!!

[FourLaneBlue]

Ah...the days when Lee Carsley was our top scorer!!!
