And 13 points off the top,

Doing ever so well and giving it a reet good do

I am going to save that post for posterity

[chris_h]

I am going to save that post for posterity

Why?

[yoda]

Why?

At the end of the season I will remind you of it

[chris_h]

At the end of the season I will remind you of it

You'll remind me that the season ends in May? Thanks but I think I'll be ok with that.

[yoda]

Very good, you know what I meant, I will remind you that we didn't improve

[chris_h]

Very good, you know what I meant, I will remind you that we didn't improve

You sound as though you are looking forward to it.

Now, THAT is damning.

[yoda]

Stupid comment, I am dreading it, if you are at the Q & A you will know different.

Just to qualify what I said, nothing will improve unless there is a major change in the regime at Ewood or Pune

Will you be in costume when you pose your questions?

[yoda]

Will you be in costume when you pose your questions?

Never thought of that, do you like men in costumes Gordon ?

Had your partner in crime in earlier !

[Pedro]

We'll be a damn site further than 13 points off by then.

1 win in ten and we don't make a whimper. Pathetic return and we had a similar (if not worse) shoddy run only 9 months ago...how some believe this guy is as good as it gets amazes me.

[chris_h]

Get yourself down to the bookies Pedro, put your money where your mouth is.

[yoda]

Talk about damning, trying to goad a true Rover to bet against his club

If you honestly think that we'll be within 13 points of the top (with this man in charge) I can only think that you are way out of touch with the reality of Rovers. I'm a proper fan, I love Rovers and want the best for them, i go to the games and have done since the 80's, but I don't let that cloud my judgement. Until that defence is sorted, and it won't ever be done with Bowyer at the helm, we will be WAY off the pace.

In truth, I doubt a bookie would give anything above 4-7 on that though (seeing as the odds aren't that big on us going down) but I would be delighted if you were right and I was wrong.

Even by your dire standards that is pitiful

[yoda]

I your opinion only

We certainly are appear to be poor at the back, that much we can agree on. I think we would also agree that Bowyer isn't the right man for the job. Where we would disagree is banging on and on about it. I'm not sure how that helps. Cathartic maybe for some? Bandwagon jumping and being part of 'the gang' for others? You don't appear to fit into either category to be fair, you appear to have a mind of your own. Even if Yoda thinks that I can goad you into gambling via this message board.

[chris_h]

I your opinion only

Well, I don't assume that I have a mandate to speak for anybody else.

Good lad

Yoda and chris_h:

Please take your argument to PM or stop it completely. Regardless, keep it off the public forum.

I haven't the time to hide all your petty posts at this late hour, as I'm trying to get another teaching job application written, but I shall in the morning if I remember or indeed have the time.

Consider this a brief warning and please remember that you are adults on a public forum, not children in a playground debating who's daddy is bigger.

It was over Mike. It was a minor squabble that took up less than a page during the graveyard shift.

I'm onside with the mods and appreciate your efforts but it's been a little precious of late.

Didn't see anything wrong with it Mike. The discussion was about football?

[Mike E]

It was, but it was done in a provocative manner imo. While there was nothing 'wrong', it appeared to be escalating into an argument. It was more pre-emptive than anything.

In future I may just wait until there are insults hurled around.
