[Archived] Rovers v some other team: 14th September 2013

[booth]

I like the fact even the Dingle staff are getting bitter in the LT - first with Mee saying "at least we're still above them" and then Dyche saying "We will beat them, the next one is March 9th isnt it".

It's this desperation and bitterness that is why they boil over so much and bottle it, whether it be leaving Dunny unmarked or the calamity of Rhodes equaliser.

Amazed that Dyche said that. A bit naive at best and stupid at worst. Especially away from home in a heated derby against a team that he said would be challenging for promotion. It's just going to help our players get motivated if anything.

He sounds like a Phil Brown waiting to happen.

Having just seen Everton vs Chelsea it is interesting to note that Luiz was it? Only got a yellow for a similar offence. The biggest blunder of the day belonged to the ref and his failure to play advantagen well maybe it was the pass to Rhodes.

They've both got overinflated egos, similar to the vast majority of the fan base.

It’ll be good to ram Dyches comments back down his throat come next March

Oh the pain, the pain, the pain ! It hurts like hell.

Survived another incursion into dingle territory along with Preston Blue and Ewoodbehappy. Even had time to catch a photo with Bertie Molester being given a dingle 6 fingered salute in front of his own supporters !

Class listening to them coming out of the ground. Fair result me thinks. Better than us ? The tide has turned ? Think not my claret friends.

35 YEARS and counting

I saw the pics

We give them Venky's. We give them Steve Kean. We give them a 1-0 lead. They still can't beat us.

When Duff seemed to smack it into his own net, I didn't celebrate. I cacked myself laughing.

Only when I saw the replay did I applaud the genius of Jordan Rhodes. Excellent positioning for a cracking technical goal.

We were having the same conversation at the weekend. We have given them so many gifts.We have even given them the lyrics for their awful song!

And yet...they got us at our lowest ebb last year and they still contrived to miss out on the elusive win.

Rhodes' goal re-opened the dirty wound from Dunny's 95th minute poison arrow!

We saw on Saturday how much of a psychological thing it is now.

This even extends to Mr Dyche, who seems more bizarre every time I hear him speak. We have become so much of an obsession that he knew the date of the return fixture. Unhinged, I say.

The point that Dyche and their one eyed follwers seem to be missing is that they've all but blown their best chances. Arguably they could/should have won the last 2 but they didn't. They couldn't find the second goal to kill us off and both times contibuted to their own downfall. End of the day they still ain't good enough sooner or later the pendulum will swing back the other way and we'll tank them again, hopefully in March !

A very brief assessment from me before I once more retire to lick my wounds.

Firstly a thanks to the few fans who could find it in themselves to recognise some of the qualities we displayed during the game.

On the match, fairly simple really. We pretty much dominated the first half yet you probably had the clearest/best scoring chances. We had a moment not entirely dis similar to the one that went in off Rhodes in the first half too.

Second half it was all about with you dominating for 30 minutes. I was like a cat on hot tin roof watching corner after corner but neither side really created many clear cut chances during this period either. The substitution for us I thought was a little late, Kightly had looked shattered from half time onwards. Our goal I felt came as we were just about getting back into the game, and was certainly a good hit. Your goal was all about the dreadful back pass and Rhodes' awareness - and was painful to see! On the sending off - I was furious but had it been reversed I'd have been even more furious if our player hadn't brought the lad down, it may not be pretty but it is, and for as long as I've watched has been, football.

On balance I thought we edged it (come on I obviously would) but didn't create enough scoring chances when we were on top. In truth on the day neither side really created enough clear chances to win it for me but in all honesty I thought both teams looked very decent

Pretty fair comments longsiders. However I do think we'd have turned you over in the second half if Dunny had been playing. Given our pressure his quality in and around your pen box I'm pretty sure would have created quite a few openings. However if my auntie had balls etc.

no mention about them singing their JW song I see

Its not offensive though because its talking about our demise under Venkys rather than Jacks death or thats the dingle take on things....

[booth]

They are saying its the same as calling them inbred and sleeping with their sister. Because like that's just as specific and personal isn't it.

Thick Keans.

[K-Hod]

Exactly right.

Their official twitter account tried taking the moral high ground before someone pointed out that song that however many thousand dingles were singing.

[USABlue]

Plonkers.

That would be me they then replied saying 'no biggie' I then pointed out them saying 'get in there' when they scored as according to the, celebratory tweets aimed at their own fans are unprofessional

No.......In that respect, they are perfectly correct. Banter is one thing; obscenity and profanity are most definitely far more than just well out of order. Stuff like that is grossly obscene filth and has no place at all on this supposedly "higher standard than the norm" message board.

Perhaps less offensive than singing about the death of our greatest ever supporter though would you not say Fife?

No Al I wouldn't say less offensive......equally offensive in my book. Though obviously both things are offensive in different ways given their different subjects.

Both are in different ways an affront to the sensibilities of any decent citizen, and deserve to be recognised and ostracised as such.

Then we differ in our opinions. Calling them inbreds is obviously not factual and can therefore be classified as banter in much the same way as them calling us "keans". Singing about the death of an individual plumbs whole new depths of obscenity. In my opinion of course.

EDIT

"Keans" of course was not what I typed. That fell foul of the language police but I have no doubt you know what they call us and most of us were born in wedlock.

Bang on Al. Burnley fans aren't known for discretion when it comes to us though are they? 'Who's that lying in the coffin' etc

Totally disagree. Chanting about a bunch of faceless strangers in total jest compared to speaking of a real persons death?

One is a work of fiction for a laugh, the other is reveling in someone's real life untimely and painful demise.

[Amo]

I don't think Rovers have much a moral high-ground considering the Owen Coyle stuff from the other year.

[booth]

Thought it was Burnley taking the moral high ground which led to this discussion?

[wellesbourne]

And we never sung songs about Bob Lord in the 80's did we not...............not quite as bad as the 'who's that lying in the coffin' but on a par with their current one if not worse.

i.e Bob Lord was a butcher he ate his own meat pies

He ate one by mistake one day

That's how the 'Keaner' died

This in the eyes of those affected by such chants is far more offensive than the latest clampet chant. Well i think it is and i am sure many were involved in that chant during the emotion of the 80's Lancs Manx Cup games.

[Amo]

Tit for tat.

I never heard that sung but in any case never ever compare Jack Walker to Bob Lord. It is disrespectful to Jack.
