[Archived] Beware of Jack the treacle eater! Away day at Yeovil - December 21st

[DE.]

Jake could also make cracking saves, though. What I like about Eastwood is that his distribution is more powerful and assured, and he seems confident in himself. It's far more than I expected.

Of course worth noting, distribution aside, Jake started out that way too when he first came into the team...

[Mike Graham]

Well done Rovers, a good well fought for victory today and may we have many more.

Also tinged with sadness and in memory of my sadly departed Yeovil mad supporter mate Yanko Krasmanovic who was with them from non league days. RIP.....another good one lost far too soon.

[USABlue]

Wish you had'nt said that !

You know what will happen now.

I don't rate the fella either but has to be said he's scored 29 in 64 league games for Brum,

but only 4 this Season.

Anyone else sense a hat trick coming now.

Good win, let us go on a run , like derby have..

Aye!

I see Rochina replaced Dunn around about the hour mark, How/what did he do?

In my opinion not very well. He is a luxury player - a couple of nice touches but very lightweight on the ball, not quick or hard working. We didn't hold the ball up as well when he came on for Dunn. Gestede on earlier would have been better.

Williamson was also a poor sub - too slow. As with Dunn for rochina, Taylor off for Williamson made us weaker. Gestede was the only substitution that helped

This post is much appreciated. It gives us a quick but direct insight. Thanks.

Nice to see Rochina back. I Think we may need his creativity on thursday as I reckon Sheff W will try to make it tight....

Nice comments from his Twitter.

Rochina has always been a lux player and will not be fully match fit, glad he is back though as he is on his game our most unique player... and well we need a miracle this season, if he has half a brain a fully fit rochina could get himself a nice transfer and us a much better league position.

Good win today, made up for the fans that travelled down, lets back this win up with another one against Wednesday.

Happy Christmas to you all

[LDRover]

I've been up and down in regards to Rovers more than I've ever been this season.

Obviously on an 'up' at the minute but it is absolutely vital that we get a 3rd win on the trot next Thursday.

Win that and who knows ?

[jim mk2]

Long way down to Somerset in December so well done to all those who went and sounds as if they were rewarded with an excellent performance.

Disappointing to see after our little run we are still only 11th. We need to keep this momentum going now.

I suppose its better than the Down, down, further down,......when & where will this end, of the previous 2 seasons, at least where now slowly moving in the right direction(for now anyway ) and we have a team that is starting to resemble and play like a 'Rovers Team'

Still only 4 points off the playoffs though Jim. The table is pretty tight around our area at the moment, not much at all between 5th - 11th. A win against Sheff Weds could move us up 3 or 4 places.

[Tom]

Another lovely finish by Rhodes but what the hell is Ruben doing a Rabona for? Good effort but someone tell him he has a right foot

[Neal]

That Rabona was unreal. It was flying in to be fair, you pay money to see that sort of stuff... Fair play I say.

[roversfan99]

It had absolutely no power on it whatsoever and was an easy save.

Did you go by train?

[Brfcrule1]

Totally agree Tom was a superb finish from the boy wonder to settle it. Tom will you be at the Brum game on the 29th would be good to catch up.

[yoda's brother]

if you watched the football league show, you would have thought we only had a couple of chances and yeovil were all over us, typical.

Quite right ....... Now you go outside and try it.

OMG! Just watched it. No reflection at all of our first half dominance. Makes it look like Rovers robbery. Screw the BBC!

[arbitro]

It was incredible that he should try a difficult skill like that by shooting from outside the penalty area. In a way it kind of sums him up as a footballer. And if anybody doesn't think it is hard to do they should ask David Dunn who made a fool of himself rying the same thing whilst at Birmingham.

The Beeb love minnows. Soak in the three points and laugh it off.

I'm going to email the BBC. Poor journalism.
