[Archived] Rovers v Nobend

[Gary Paul]

So, it's a chance for you lot to get your own back, after your defeat at Deepdale earlier in the season.

We've sold 5,500 as of today, with sales continuing at a steady rate. I think we'll probably have about 6,500 there.

Fancy your chances? Looking forward to it?

I know it's your cup final, but you should be able to see how much North End mean to Rovers fans when nobbers have to come on here and actually start the thread about the game.

If we are going to use this thread, can it be changed to 'Rovers'?

It takes a strange breed (and I'm speaking generally of my experience with PNE fans) to hate 'Plastic Rovers' when all our plastics have disappeared.

Should be a good, feisty game. I fancy our chances only because it's at home and we still have a purpose (to avoid relegation), whereas you guys seem to be bobbing along safely without threatening the top6. Nonetheless a good season for you!

In fairness to our trophy-less friends in Depreston they are only 6 points off the play-offs with 11 games to play.

I don't anymore Baz, my new mate, no. I've turned over a new leaf.

I'm sound now.

I have to be on my best behavior, or else Ultimate Warrior will ban me for the 4th time.

This is blatant entrapment.

I don't like you. You're giving off negative vibes.

Please don't talk to me. Thanks.

I have to say lads, I'm quite disappointed that we haven't been invited to a joint protest against the Venkys. Similar to your pally little protest with the Lashers (Whom I hear you're now great mates with)

I think it could have been a bit of a special moment.

Hi mate,

"A cup of beans" huh......Cool.

What's the story behind that particular moniker bud? Quite unusual, if you don't mind me saying so.

Coincidentally, I do own a pair of Dunlop green flash.

They've got Velcro straps instead of laces (I could never work out how to tie laces).

They're ace.

Wacky bunch aren't they!

'North End fans will be in all areas of the ground' too, you'd think they'd just buy a ticket in the away end, no?

Welcome

Reports over here are the Irish players are getting on well,particularly mcgeady. He always had talent,just made that bizzare move to Russia in his prime. 

What you make of Horgan and Boyle so far? 

[bob fleming]

Prestons last game of the season. We'll win, scoring 2 in the process. Probably The Mighty Joao with both. Bring it on.
