Anybody else looking forward to Rory Finneran helping to pay for Venkys' next set of cutbacks?

He would still have to be persuaded to sign a scholarship for us to get much of anything, and then a pro contract when he turns 17 (in just over a years time).

Plenty of time for the decisions of our owners to inspire him to try his hand elsewhere long before Rovers could get any sot of decent fee for him

Aye I know, I was being optimistic!

Uncle Jack's academy still keeping the club alive

We need to win by three goals to progress, we are winning 0-2 at the moment.

[neophox]

Is the game on any live tv feed?

[arbitro]

We are currently 2-1 up against Sheffield United. Nsangou and Gilsenan the scorers. Apparently a real bollock dropped by Michalski for their goal.

Now 2-2 .

[arbitro]

Now 2-2

[arbitro]

3-2 Rovers. Gilsenan with his second.

If Carlsberg did defensive coaches - could we borrow a couple 🫣

We need two more goals in the second half.

Without conceding…

As someone who half pays attention to the youth fixtures.... Is Gilsenan on 60 goals and assists this year?!

Glad to see you give the Rovers score first even if they are playing away. When mentioning our score it should always be first even if we were playing on the moon.

It seems crazy that Markanday still gets on the bench ahead of him despite never doing anything of note

There would be more atmosphere than at Ewood.

Rovers won 2-3, to progress we need Reading to beat WBA.

He’s got to be knocking on the door of the first team.

Apologies if it has been mentioned earlier on this thread but apparently Buckley played tonight.

He’s down for an assist in that score sheet.

Good news going through thanks to the Reading win. Wonder when the draw takes place

Feels like the first team would probably lose to a side from the moon right now. And nobody lives there.
