thought i'd come on here and soak up some pre-match hype but all i see is a bunch of people who have given up before a ball has been kicked :-( and you slag the players off for having no commitment. Come on! f@@K THE DINGLES WHO ARE COMING ON HERE BEING 'REASONABLE' AND LET'S ROAR THE LADS TO ANOTHER VICTORY OVER THE INBREDS.

It's just a way of easing what could be very painful, prepare for the worst and hope for the best. I would love nothing more than to absolutley trounce this lot but it has to come to an end and we have just been soundly beaten at home by Millwall, a good side by all accounts and then we reportedly rolled over for Bolton. Team selection seems to be as we were during turdheads reign of misery so you can surely see there is real concern.

Starting 11 tomorrow:

Robinson, Henley, Dann, Hanley, Martin Olsson, Formica, Etuhu, Murphy, King, Rochina and Rhodes

Bench:

Kean, Givet, Lowe, Dunn, CKR, MGP, Marcus Olsson

This is the team I think that will actually play, not the one I would chose.

No way in hell would I play Rochina in this game (then again whoever the next game was he fully deserves to be dropped)

The last thing we need is one of his pirouettes in our own half and losing the ball as per usual

Please see "Iron Age" thread for:

Myself, 1864roverite and hopefully Baz (if he survives the savages) intend, win or lose, to write about our forthcoming encounter with ancient "man". For the sake of science we have been persuaded to spend approximately 2.5 hours in the middle of Dingles this Sunday, it is on a par with spending time in a cage at Chester Zoo with pubescent chimps who will be pi$$ing and pooing everywhere, making loud animal like noises and playing with their toys before trying to throw them out of the cage.

This is a trip like no other. We are going in camouflage with designer mitts to hide our giveaway 5 fingers. All communications with the outside world will have to be suspended, we have to be silent in these jungle surroundings and we have been advised not to eat or drink or we may get gut worms.

Any advice is most welcome, don't bother with "sit on your hands"!

If we survive please be prepared for our STORY FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE WORLD.

Are you going wearing sickly claret and dirty blue?...;)

Stay away from the women, once they realise you are an able bodied outsider they will want to mate.

Be careful when our fourth goal goes in that you don't forget where you are and celebrate.

(I was in the corporate seats at United when we came from 3-0 down and 10 men (Sherwood off for kicking Beckham) to 3-2. When Blake scored his header I jumped up celebrating and literally about 25,000 seated United fans were all looking at me sliding back into my seat. I did the same at Arsenal when Dunn scored the 2nd in the 6-2 defeat to make it 2-2 after promising my Arsenal friend faithfully I would remain very quiet all day!)

Just a gentle reminder in less than 24 hours you need to turn your watches back 15 years.

So I can watch us get relegated the first time? No ta. Wouldn't mind reliving the Duff, Dunn and Jansen years again though.

Jesus Christ , I bloody hope not. Givet has got to start, either at centre half or left back. I'd start with Lowe in midfield in stead of Murphy, Ollsen out wide left instead of King and CKR up front with Rhodes instead of Rochina. I''m expecting a battle so it may be to our advantage to have guys who can play a route one type game.

Quite fearful. I just don't think our players have the heart for this type of game and I can't see Berg being able to motivate them to battle properly. Hope I'm wrong, but I've seen nothing from this team to suggest they have the balls to take the game to Burnley as they are going to need to do.

I have my blue/white (and brown) underpants at the ready.....no claret and poo for me.

I was in the Gladwys Street End at Everton in 94/95 when we won 2-1 after an onslaught. I got my ticket from an Everyon steward I knew. I jumped up after the 2nd Rovers goal and was threatened by dozens of numpties.

I was in the Birmingham City End in 2001 when Duff scored that wonder goal (the good ole days) when we won 2-0. I stiuffed my mouth full of crisps rather than celebrate when surrounded by literally 100's of 40+ year old meatheads.

I was in the Stretford End about 6 years back when we lost to Red Scum 4-1 (I think). We took the lead just before half time and nutty nuts cheered .....so did about 5 other rovers and non of the Mancs (or were they Korean/Chinese/Japanese etc) said a word!!!

I was in the middle of the North End fans in 2001 when Jansen scored, jumped up,and was escorted out in front of laughing Nonenders who I knew well. I walked around to the Rovers section and celebrated like I had won the pools.

What do we have now.....those Keaning Venkys destroying our lovely Club......and the memories.

COYB. If you see an altercation in the Burnley fans it is because 1864Roverite has bought a round!

Calm down, my prediction was only based in the stats.

I hope a few changes are made but I'm not expecting them.

They can't rob us of the memories.

Yes but the decline was beginning. Being a fan since 2000, I've been blessed with only seeing us capitulate once. Not sure I'd be happy to experience going from winners to relegation in 4 years. Not that relegation was easy to take this time round, mind.

As an aside, where is the travel from Accrington for this match, out of interest?
