[Archived] Preview (Not) Asia Trophy

[Tom]

What a stroke of luck, I've decided to work from home today and Rovers are on TV

Snap, weird that isn't it!

[Heinz]

No Grella/Andrews?

[AggyBlue]

Both pundits, Dwight Yorke and Ray Wilkins have gone for a Villa win.

Understandable really

[BPF]

Shirts have Venkys on them.

Shirts have Venkys on them.

And they look good!

Expected them to be on for the tournament though.

The socks look smart as well.

Pitch looks heavy though

[BPF]

The empty ground suggests that the trophy has really captured the imagination and hearts of the locals

[den]

Formica is the interest for me.

They do. I'd even buy one which considering my opinion on Venkys is quite amazing.

Bet it's full later for Chelsea, is it not still work time there?

[vintageadidas]

It is 17.58 - most people on their way home from work.

It will fill up later.

I don't think a ref with a name pronounced as 'Chew Cock' would exist very well in the Premier League.

[Tom]

Kean amuses me, he just looks happy to be there

I wish we had the away shirt on or at least blue shorts to distinguish more

[mr bishi]

First time I've seen the new kit in motion. It's smart.

[Tom]

Nice attempts to play pass and move by us here, Gato always wants the ball which I like

[heysham rover]

who are this team in blue and white who seem to want to move the ball around and play neat little triangles, youd think the coaching staff has been working on it. Weird

Giving it away though which feels all too familiar.

Keep us updated Tom if you don't mind. At work and have no other way to watch it besides updates from the website.

Thanks

[mr bishi]

Dunns passing has been very slack so far

[Tom]

Nearly a chance for Villa there, Heksey easily beating Salgado in the air and nods it back accross.

At the other end Formica and Dunn did well to nearly put Roberts in.

Decent effort on goal by Gato (Formica) then

[dubdubdub]

Anything of note by Formica thus far?

[BPF]

Unlucky from Formica.

Good save.

[Lee0r]

Nice Link-up play on the edge of the box, shot from Formica good save from Given.

[Tom]

Anything of note by Formica thus far?

Looks lively, some decent touches and just had a good effort saved by Given.

I just saw a blurred silhoutte of a Rovers fan in the new shirt at the Rovers end, I'm going to presume it's Ohmi!

[heysham rover]

formica looks decent so far, always wants the ball and touch so far has been good.

[Lurid Coat]

Watching this in HD on the Norwegian Premier League Channel - some Rovers action again at last! Formica has been looking technically good and quite up for it so far.
