Rover_Shaun Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 It's simple really, one team will be trying and one won't, that's all you need to know. What makes you think Wednesday will go through the motions?
1864roverite Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 The biggest game ever ? A cup final ? Must not lose ? Must win ? Has KEANWITS fingerprints all over it. certain defeat for Rovers. 1-0
Waggy76 Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 I cannot see us winning , it maybe a draw .. Just hope we actually make an effort and break sweat ... Danny Murphy should be told, to stay at home until the end of the season and not come within 20 miles of Ewood ,Brockhall or any ground where we are playing ...
West Yorks Rover Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 I cannot see us winning , it maybe a draw .. Just hope we actually make an effort and break sweat ...

I would also confiscate his mobile phone and laptop.
darrenrover Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Great preview. One of my earliest Rovers memories was a late-1970's game against Wednesday. They must have brought about 10k to Ewood, DE and paddock in Nuttall Street were full of 'em. Think it might have been a night match in either 1978 or 1979.. Anyone else there? Did we win?! Think you're right there mate, i watched an episode of The Big Match Revisited recently from the 70's (1979 i think) and he was playing for Wednesday in a big FA Cup tie. Jack Charlton was their manager. Lowey must have come to us not lomg after. 1980 if memory serves me correct, I think we lost and Noel Brotherston scored for us.

West Yorks Rover Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Lost 2-1, 26,000 on that night. Both teams went up though. They played in all yellow if I remember rightly, big physical team, nearly all of their players 6ft or over, was Howard Wilkinson their manager.
neophox Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Williamsson, King and Lowe will all be fit for this game. Olsson probably back too.
neophox Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I would start like this: Can someone please send these tactics to Bowyer... Sandomierski Kane (bombing down the right wing), Dann, Hanley, Olsson (bombing down the left wing) Lowe, Williamsson, (doing the dirty job and passing. King (attacking wing) , Dunn (in the hole), Kazim-Richards (attacking wing) Rhodes or Best Bench: Jones Best Marcus Olsson Josh Morris Gomes Stewart ressie goalie Drop Bentley, Murphy and Bentley after the terrible performerance at Cardiff.
Rover_Shaun Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Does anyone bomb at Ewood anymore?? I have no hope left so I am getting a really really bad feeling about this. Inept 2-0 battering

Drop Bentley twice ? He must have been bad !
USABlue Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 We will get beat. End of. Glad I had 50 on rovers to go down again after relegation at 150/1 Yeah sure you did. Great preview.

windymiller7 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 4-1 Rovers Whatever you're on, I suggest you halve the dose!

Says it all really.
DavidMailsTightPerm Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 4-1 Rovers This the odds for a Rovers win ? Wouldn't be surprised with any result - we do have better players - but do they have the application and fight ? Returning players will (hopefully) make a huge difference to the fight in the team - I am hoping for at least a draw or a tight win.
AggyBlue Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 The performance in this game will be a pointer to our chances of staying up. Roll over again and get beat, we will be as good as down.
bypass06 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 They're hoping for a decent crowd. Kids for a Quid on Saturday http://www.swfc.co.uk/news/article/kids-for-a-quid-on-saturday-rovers-750738.aspx?
roverandout Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 sheff wed in goodish form, probably a packed house in front of players who give a @#/?, us on the other hand? 3-1 to sheffield
mhead Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 This feels like a re-run of last Season's run-in. Remember West Brom and Swansea Aways!!

grizfoot Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I've tried but I really don't understand what the pun in that headline is trying to say. Me neither, although I did get a little bit excited when I saw "Dann" and "drop" in the same sentence.
