[Archived] Carling Cup

Hope we break him back into the league properly. An 80 inch morter and a half starved Samba should suffice.

No that's the home league game on 21st Nov from 20th

[Guest bluerovers]

Doh, teach me not to read properly, I did wonder why no one had posted it earlier

[est990]

Can you buy tickets at villa park for the away end? or do you order them through rovers? live in birmingham and i dont reckon the tickets would make it to me if i ordered them at rovers.

[cn174]

I would think that tickets will be on sale from the away ticket office at Villa as they have been in previous years. We have an allocation of 3000 and we wont get anywhere close to selling them all.

[london-rover]

tickets are being sold on the door! 700 tickets apparently sent back!

if thats the case 2300 sold is awesome but i very much dout we have sold that many!

We were planning to go but it's our school open evening - directed time and no chance of missing it - my husband's got a late finish at school as it's his regular training evening and then I've got a Circuit meeting to attend so can't even listen on the radio. Otherwise we'd be there

Hmmm - like this one.

Maybe Samba in at the centre - Givet to left back and Olsson to replace Pedersen ? I think it is almost definite that Benjani will start

[Mike Graham]

is anyone else going, or will I be sat by myself like Billy-no-mates

[roversmum]

Aw shucks ... Never mind, it could be worse, we have to sit in the middle of the home supporters! Will give you a wave

[only2garners]

I've just decided to go down with my lad so we'll sit next to you Mike!

[AggyBlue]

Mike, if you've got room, I'll keep you company.

[horatio_nelson]

Anyone going to the match from the sheffield area ?

[John]

The following are injured (or not fit) and won't be taking part: Grella, Dunn, Keith Andrews, Nelsen, Roberts.

[Doaksie]

On that:

"Ryan Nelsen played in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Fulham having had a painkilling injection in his foot and will be rested, along with Vince Grella, who picked up a hamstring injury in that game." Shock horror Vinny, it had been overdue.

Shock horror...

[roversmum]

The question comes to mind, is Keef going to be joining the sick notes on a semi-permanent basis? I miss him ...

(chill, everybody, just having a Sam moment haha)

[herbergeehh]

What's happened to Hanley, anyone know?

Not in the reserves, not out on loan, not anywhere... injured?

[BuckyRover]

Great goal by Arsenal

[BigNuts]

How can Whinger expect us to compete with them at football when he has a reserve team this good, he should share some of these players with us!

[Commondore]

I'd like to see Hoilett and Linganzi start against Villa. Also, if we are to have any right backs left next season it might be a good idea to keep Emerton somewhat happy by starting with him as well. I expect quite a strong side, but I'd like to see this one:

-Bunn-

-Emerton-Samba-Jones-Givet-

-N'Zonzi-Linganzi-

-Hoilett-Dunn-Olsson-

-Kalinic-

Dunn's injured mate. You can usually tell, cause he's always injured when the day ends in a Y.

I'd like to see Chimbonda in that line up, probably instead of Samba, but Chim playing left back and Givet in the middle. Not so sure Sam will ever play Emo at right back, but I'd like to see him there again too.

I'd swap Benjani for Niko too, get him some game time.
