[Archived] Rovers V Bolton 28Th August

[tonygreenbank]

Very kind offer PB much appreciated. I've got tickets on the Riverside for my son and me.

Let's hope we're all happy tonight!

[ABBEY]

Get off your arse Al haha.. Got off my sick bed and going ha

[DE.]

If Rhodes is playing I'm slightly hopeful against my better judgement.

To be honest knowing Bowyers form when under pressure we will spank them and the dogs will be off.

I don't know if we've ever spanked anybody under Bowyer, but if we can't scrape a win over this lot at home we really are in deep trouble.

[broadsword]

"You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you. In company with our brave Allies and brothers-in-arms on other Fronts, you will have a right good go at it."

"Now is the winter of our discontent. Made glorious summer by this right good go."

"You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of a right good go"

"Invincibility lies in the defence; the possibility of victory in a right good go"

"Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we have a right good go."

"I have nothing to offer this house, but blood, tears, toil, and a right good go."

Inspiring words to be sure from Uncle Gary, which will no doubt stir the troops unto hitherto unimaginable feats of derring-do and incalculable heroism.

They'll no doubt find their inner-hero, bridge that narrow margin between glory and death.

It's going to be awful and I can barely watch.

If we score first, we have a chance. Go behind and, likely as not, we're screwed. And what's more, the glorious ghosts of Rovers' past will haunt them and kick their teeth in.

Come on Rovers, let's be having you.

[A cup of beans]

Been in hospital since last week so I'm not fit enough to go tonight but I'll be there in spirit and watching on the telly. It's not the same though. Give them a shout for me.

Will do, Al.

Get well soon.

Stoke City got spanked in the FA Cup!

[tomphil]

We did spank these lot once but we did have David Dunn playing...

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Get this shower motivated Bowyer!

[rovers11]

My predicted team:

Raya

Lowe Hanley Duffy Spurr

Guthrie Akpan

Marshall Lawrence Conway

Rhodes

[Proudtobeblue&white]

My son wants to go, I'd have preferred to watch from behind the sofa with a strong cider, but it's his first of the season. You never know, two horse race and all, spring JR at the last minute, could be 5-0 Rovers, pay rise for Gazza, season up and running!

[Leonard Venkhater]

Hope you enjoy it....We could all do with a thumping 5-0 victory, but I get the sense that it is written that we need to suffer a bit more!

That's when Bowyer played King in his correct position.

Is it possible to ask Bolton to play with 10 and for us to loan back King and Gestede for tonight? If so, game on.

[Waggy76]

Cannot help thinking which ever team loses will sack their manager ...

Big Sam he's the man !

[Husky]

Had this one as a 'shoe-in" to attend but alas I'm in Birmingham for the cricket Finals day tomorrow so it's a SkySports bar for me.

Still got us down as a 'shoe-in' win too. Put your mortgage on it. It's a license to print money

All the best, pal. Hope it's nothing too serious.

I'll give it a right good shout for you!

If you're wrong I will seek you out at Edgbaston tomorrow ;-)

I'm going to Ewood tonight and heading for Brum in the morning.

[rhodie]

Think the pressure is on for Bowyer tonight, this sacking business would have been a kick up the backside I would imagine. As per normal will be tight, I reckon a win for Rovers, final score 1-2.

Hope you are feeling better Al.

[Tom]

Echo the sentiments get well soon Al

[Mercer]

Sorry to hear you've been in dock Al, speedy recovery and all the best.

Thanks guys. I'm home now but my legs have gone. Hopefully I'll get stronger over the next couple of weeks.

I warned you you silly old bugger what Viagra at your age would do !
