[Archived] Bolton vs Rovers

[EWOODACE1]

Liverpool are doing my nut in. How many more relegation rivals do the scousers want to help out? Guaranteed 3 points against them for any opposition right now.

until they play us

[DavidMailsTightPerm]

It ain't over yet.

+1

[Rovermatt]

2-0 eh? And some Kean disciples were smugly predicting us being all but clear of relegation.

[rovers1993]

Horrible first half, long punts, no aim...

Dann has been absolutely horrible at the back but mind you the ref has been relatively bias for bolton. Hoilett should have had a pen and it would have been in any other game except this one just cause of muamba.

[EWOODACE1]

+1

we havnt started yet. thats the problem.

[roverandout]

our next game is against man u, we wont get anything against them so we could end up level on points with our relegaton rivals by the time that game finishes

[Darwen Rover]

GET IN TO AM ROVERS SCORE LINE IS 2-0 BOLTON

[rovers11]

As many of us predicted earlier in the week, a win was almost certain for Bolton today. Other results are going our way (apart from wigan but I'd expect liverpool to come back).

Think we'll pull one back in the second half but still lose. QPR and Wolves may sneak draws. Thankfully, QPR have arsenal and man utd in their next two games. Wigan are plucky.

What a strange performance,its as if the Muamba situation is affecting us more than Notlob...5,000 fans there and they put this rubbish shift in.

[FourLaneBlue]

Out-fought and out-thought for 45 minutes. Let's see if Kean really has improved by what we see in the second half, this is a very important team talk.

[Exiled_Rover]

Wigan beating Liverpool?, it really is going to go down to the wire and we are going to be very much a part of it...

Did you expect anything different? We're crap, the teams below us have just been abysmal. A fluke result here or there and we're right back in it.

[Amo]

I was going to say it's lucky for Kean this game will have nothing to do about football... But who am I kidding? The world has already decided he's Manager of the Year!

Just like Wigan away.....the last Rovers game I attended. Big away following and we did not turn up against a crap team.

These are the games we MUST win.

[EWOODACE1]

dont forget that only 1 team has stayed up after being bottom at christmas. wasnt that us

[Mercer]

Not good at all.

As I said after Sunderland, I think our last 2 results flattered to deceive - a shambolic Wolves (the new whipping boys for everyone) and a lethargic, post Everton tie, Sunderland.

Petrov is frightening us to death.

Not given up just yet - obviously next goal is key - as their keeper looks like he has at least one gift in him for us.

You do wonder if Givet is injured or is he another who may have fallen out with Kean.

No other centre half on bench - what does that say about Myles ?

I'd settle for the same result !

[Devon Rover]

These are the games we MUST win.

Or at least must not lose. The defence we are playing (and central midfield in front of them) fill me with no confidence going into these matches that they can help us to not lose crucial games.

The first half showed the last two games to be a blip in an otherwise dreary season.

I just can't see a 2nd half turnaround- hope to be proven wrong...

[Tango]

Maybe because Mauro Formica is the player in Premier League who has stopped the most dribbles this season. This according to EPL Index.

Shows how irrelevant statistics are!

[MarkBRFC71]

No changes at half-time? Unbelievable.

[Tom]

We aren't back in it we were never out of it in the first place.

We could be back in the bottom 3 by the time we play our next game I think.

Captain obvious time but we are still 2 points ahead of Bolton if it stays this way, they may have a game in hand but they need to win it and the others need to do their own thing to overtake us

[EWOODACE1]

if olson goes off i cant see what we will do

[Rovermatt]

You do wonder if Givet is injured or is he another who may have fallen out with Kean.

Perhaps he costs too much.

[Andy]

I was going to say it's lucky for Kean this game will have nothing to do about football... But who am I kidding? The world has already decided he's Manager of the Year!

I agree.

Unfortunately 2 wins against 2 extremely poor sides has taken some people's eyes off the real issues at Rovers.

We're still very much in danger of going down this year, particularly with the naive and incompetent Kean in charge.

[roverandout]

ngog should have scored

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Ngog nearly makes it three...Liverpool 1-1
