v Hull City (a) - 19/1/22

[Bad Boy]

Enjoy the game all those those attending.  It will be the last one over the festive season you can attend as it will soon be announced we are having a lockdown from the 27th for two weeks with football, rugby etc being played behind closed doors.

I think playing away at Hull will suit our current style of play. They’ll go for it being the home team. With a bit of luck we’ll do our normal thing and catch them on the break. It’s the sides that park the bus that I worry about.

Again though, this makes no sense.

Why not do it from Boxing Day to stop all those large crowds gathering if its such a concern?!

Let the economy run up too Christmas hols then put the brakes on in the early new year a tradition 'quiet' time for a lot of things. Take the brakes off again later and claim credit for the booming.

All pre planned this and more to it than just covid.

I'm worryingly confident about this one (unless our settled starting line-up gets ravaged by +ve Covid tests) .... a 3-0 win for us.

Or why not from today? Infections are highest in London and 5000 Sunderland fans at Arsenal tonight possibly spreading the virus back up to the North East 🙄

Wales going to behind closed doors. Nicola Sturgeon limits boxing day crowds to max500.  Not looking good for this as Boris tends to follow what Nicola has done a couple of days later.

Think you can safely wager that we'll initially be promised it's only a fortnight then at the end of the two weeks all the talk will be '"Well that hasn't worked as well as we wanted" and it will be extended for another 2-4 weeks.

From a footballing perspective it's essential we carry on playing as there's no window to finish the season late next year given the winter world Cup.

Has to be an unchanged team.

Don't think I've ever been as confident of a win. Got to be a bad sign?

Anybody who saw us lose at home 3-1 to West Ham two days after beating them 8-2 at Upton Park will never be confident of a Rovers win.

In the various Rovers Facebook pages I saw a figure of 2600ish as of start of the week. I've seen other figures of 2300-2800 banded about so I guess must be relatively close

Around the 2 thousand mark was the sensible figure mentioned early Tuesday.

Good effort considering all the Covid shenanigans, Sky coverage and no public transport.
