Just saw it. Made me laugh out loud- I think in part just because he looked like such a donkey but more out of sheer relief that we won't have to endure watching him in a Rovers shirt again.

Same.

Just typical Jase, did his best to miss a sitter. When I saw they'd let him take a pen I thought , " God, how bad must the rest of the team be ". Then somebody else missed another pen ! Worst Rovers penalty taker since the great John Coddington.

[K-Hod]

Too funny for words was that goal!

He's made a VERY good living from playing football without all that much ability, in that sense, fair play to him.

[King Kenny's Magic]

Loving how the rebound spooned off his knee into the net. Typical Jase "The Ace" Roberts

i was at old trafford that day, chelsea fans seemed a decent bunch, had a few laughs with them, me, my brother and bro-in-law went into the chelsea pub with our rovers tops on for a laugh, needless to say we were out of there as quickly as we walked in.

[King Kenny's Magic]

Chelsea rent boys is always a good chant to wind em up. You should of sang that whilst walking in

[Drover]

Haha, that Jason Roberts goal really sums him up. Pretty sure there's a tribute video of his goals on YouTube somewhere and they're by and large along the same lines.

However, he's done it for god knows how many years and he's still got a club so fair play to him....

Edit: just had a look on the main reading forum out of interst and they're already claiming him as their best player by a mile. "pure class" today from Roberts apparently.

Just gone back up to legend status

Back?

[jones_rover]

The goal he scored against Burnley was a massive fluke!

Ball bobbled over to him and he chipped it into the far corner on his left foot by accident

[yellowsubmarine]

Fluke or not, it does look a class goal.

I thought they were playing Burnley? I'm confused, there seems to be swathes of empty seats in the away section?

lol. Did Roberts expect a kiss at 0:22?

[Guest Rovers4Good]

Who cares what the goal looked like he scored against the scum.

[Rovers_Dan]

Well done Jason!! Promoted back into the premier league with Reading last night!

Just look whats happened to your old team pal, best move you probably ever made!

[True Blue & White]

Bet all the people who said Jason had 'found his level' when he left are now feeling a bit silly given he'll be in the Prem next year whilst we're in the Championship.

I thought Roberts was the worst striker I had seen at Rovers. And then I saw Modeste...

[pick32]

Di santo and pongolle were worse than roberts

[lukey]

I actually think goodwillie will be good in the championship...

[purplegrover]

I wish him all the best but I think he will struggle in the Prem with Reading just like he did for us. He's a decent Championship level player, but is just too slow for top flight. I guess he may score a few more than he did for Rovers with a solid and decent midfield able to supply him.

Still, good luck to him. If I were him, I'd be laughing my head off with my middle finger raised to Venkys and Kean as he goes past on the 'up' escalator, while they (and we) are on the 'down' one.
