Hopefully Tomasson tells Bruce to f*** off when he wants to put towels out on the touchlines. 

I loved it when we moved the towels last time they were here.

It's absolute bollocks - you shouldn't be allowed to do it at your own ground, but there's no way I'd stand for it at mine. 

I'd get into a fight if needs be.

The whole towel thing pisses me off. I can’t remember who we played last season(could have been WBA), but we were trailing and the towel bullshit really slowed the game down. 

Tyler Magloire’s finest moments were running around at half time and throwing the towels into the stand

If we were winning last 10 minutes, I'd throw about 10 towels all around the pitch, and I'd wipe the ball at every throw in and goal kick. 

Let's see how that goes down.

Tell ‘em to wipe it on their shirts like real men.

[Sweaty Gussets]

Were WBA any good? Or will we shit 'em?

Are we still talking about the football ?

Well we’re still top of the league.

I don’t know what you mean !

West Brom looked very good tonight. Bit surprised that we are the only team to have not dropped any points after 2 games.

Bedroom curtains sufficed when I was a younger. About 36 at the time.

In the long run they've got way more depth and quality than we have.

At the weekend - I think we'll give them a game.

On an unrelated note, Steve Bruce does not look a well man.

He's looked like that most of his career including when he was a player!

Bruce has a good track record in this division and he'll have Albion up near the top I'm sure

Tough game for us coming up.

Yes, just had a look at their midfielders and attackers. That's a squad that should be in the top 2.

I see coventry have had to move home games to Burton which is an hour or so away. An utter shambles especially in August, after all the shite they've had the last few years too....

Absolutely, and the mass prayers on the pitch

At the exchange of team sheets an hour before kick off West Brom should have asked Rovers for permission to use the towels but they didn't. They simply put them around the pitch perimeter as the game started which was sneaky. It was up to the referee to stop it as permission wasn't given but he was weak and allowed it. It's different when West Brom are at home but they have to offer the visitors use of the towels too. So if Bruce asks on Sunday Tomasson should say no. If I was on the Rovers bench I would be reinforcing the point about their antics last season to the referee before the game.

He didn't just allow it, he made us put the towels back - the sod.

He’d no right to do that. I hope we complained officially.

I believe we did.

[bazza]

Surely we can pick up and dispose of litter at our own ground. Nowt to do with the referee.

[booth]

I made the mistake of going on Twitter looking for transfer rumours and see the PNE lot are still obsessed with us 🙄

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

I see Hamza Choudry has gone on loan to Watford. That’s a very good signing.
