perthblue02 Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Well if this headline doesn't get the loons scrambling for last minute flights nothing will. Anyway match day thread. Will Chris brown finally bag one? Will the season end on a high or much like the rest of it be a damp squid? Will any of the young un's get a run out? Will the "now thats what I call music vol 45" be getting another airing over the PA? Chances of a protesting streaker? Going for an impressive Rovers 3-1 win with Lambert taking to the mic at the end of the game and in true Jim Bowen style screaming "this is what you could have won"

BlueMonday Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 A Right Royal Feck Up! This game is a dead duck. Nothing from this game matters, from a football point of view. Result-Irrelevant. Performance-Irrelevant. Post Match Interview-Irrelevant. As always under Venkys, the focus is off the pitch. Possibly lowest attendance of the season(actual not official) discontent on the terraces, empty seats in the executive boxes. No ambition, No direction, no hope. I'm not the longest serving Rover, but I can't remember a bleaker more treacherous time for BRFC. I drove down from Glasgow tonight to attend the game tomorrow and it was the most despondent drive I can remember. No buzz, no anticipation. I felt like I was driving down to attend the funeral of a long time friend. In fact, I have in a way. This will be my last home game until the unmentionables leave. I'll make a concerted effort to attend away games, but I'm under no illusions that anything Rovers related on or off the pitch will be enjoyable. We know. We can see the writing on the wall. This is only going 1 way. Don't know what to expect tomorrow. I want to rip seats out, storm the exec box. But I fear a defeat of the spirit, unable to hate the players wearing the shirt. Unable to vent my anger at our absent owners. The team should leave the pitch with Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart, ringing round the ground. Because that's how I'll feel. Arte Et Labore.
bob fleming Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Will the season end on a high or much like the rest of it be a damp squid? "I'm sorry, what did you say?" http://youtu.be/XnXKVY-_i2c Only messing PB - love that programme. Anyway, the match. They'll be goals, or possibly not. Either way it's bound to be on.
The_Expert Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Hoping for an emphatic Reading win, with a soul-less, guile-less, pointless performance from the team (?) in blue and white. Something to draw a complete line under the tenure of the eejits of Pune. Something to remind die-hard Rovers Fans of the terminal decline that has set in with our club. Something to serve as the darkest moment before new light appears...wherever that may come from. I have no intention of being there, even though it is a few yards from my front door. I have better things to do with my afternoon, and the drains need unblochcking which will probably be more rewarding, smell somewhat better and actually have a point, which is more than the proceedings at Ewood are likely to produce this afternoon.
The Rover of Finland Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Hoping this isn't the last match for Rovers.
den Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Gawd, if it wasn't for this topic I'd have been turning up at 3 o'clock. The other thing....... I thought the queen must be calling in as well.
gumboots Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 I have to admit that I have so little interest in this one that it was only by chance I found out it was an early kick off too
Leonard Venkhater Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 I have to admit that I have so little interest in this one that it was only by chance I found out it was an early kick off too I didn't know until your post.Says it all really. Thanks again, Venky's
AJW Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 The only interest I have in this is whether Chris Brown plays/scores .... He's become a figure of fun and I said earlier in the season he'd never ever score a goal for Rovers , well that has got me putting £20 on him today @7/1 for first goal ... That's it ..that's all the interest I have , I might as well go home after the first goal ( which won't be Brown) is scored

Any Rovers fan wishing the opposition to win - well not really a Rovers fan, through good times and now the bad, its rovers till I die.
ABBEY Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Really not arsed . The boycott malarkey is great for blood pressure .
Norbert Rassragr Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Pffft, not bothered. Should've bought a ticket for the Wasps game, but I'll go for a hair cut and a swim. Shows my level of interest.

booth Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 It's bad when the only excitement/worry is if there's going to be parking near the ground.
AggyBlue Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 It's bad when the only excitement/worry is if there's going to be parking near the ground. I expect there to be plenty spots available today
perthblue02 Posted May 7, 2016 Author Posted May 7, 2016 ROVERS: Steele, Duffy, Hanley ©, Kilgallon, Marshall, Lenihan, Lowe, Grimes, J. Gomez, Bennett, Graham. Subs: Raya (GK), Henley, Ward, Williamson, Evans, Conway, Jackson
Backroom Mike E Posted May 7, 2016 Backroom Posted May 7, 2016 No youth players in a nothing game baffles me.
perthblue02 Posted May 7, 2016 Author Posted May 7, 2016 No Brown on the bench, where are the goals going to come from . Today was the day!
tomphil Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Why even bother with Gomez he should have been sent back weeks ago the lazy git. Probably just us bending over and fulfilling the terms of the loan by giving him shop window games, can't see him having any takers though. Deffo seems the type happy to sit on Sunderlands bench and collect his wedge. Anyway back to the game. 0 - 0 12,220 (500+ Reading) real gate 8,800
Neal Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Meh My exact thoughts were a long sarcastic and apathetic "wow".

Nah, keaned off as I am I've never played in or watched a game were I didn't want to bust a gut to win. It's just not in my nature. Meaningless game I know but - " C'mon Rovers we can beat these " .
G Somerset Rover Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 I hope you got your money backNever bet on first goal scorer until the team's are announced. Harsh lesson there AJW.Quite bemused we're not blooding a few youngsters today. Where's Mahoney?
