v Reading (h) - 15/3/23, 7:45pm

[West Yorks Rover]

Yes very nice to be going into Sunday's big game knowing we will still be in top six and at least 2 points clear of 7th,

With a game in hand too, albeit against the Dingles.

I agree with Andy on this. This is as close to a “must-win” as it gets, a home game vs a bottom of the division outfit, who do not score on the road. 

Bb-D, Dolan, Thomas, & Szmodics- if there is a way to get them all on the pitch at one time, I would do it.
 
I will go for a 2-1 win, ugly, but we will savor a win just as much at the final whistle, as if it were 10-0 (well, maybe not!), a win is a win. 
COYB! 

2-1! Blind hog, meet acorn 😂

I’m not sure the QPR players are convinced…

Wish we could stop the season now, be delighted if we got Luton over 2 games for a crack at the big time 

Doesn’t matter as long as we finish in the top six. History tells us 6th is the place to finish even though we would play odds on favourites Middlesbrough. Just as Derby were.

Good result, nice to see WBA and Horwich draw so we gain some distance on them.  

Also very refreshing to see us not colapse 2nd half of the season like the last few seasons, we have hope!

Pissed Pool couldn't score LOL

[norwichblue]

A brilliant performance and another brilliant win at home. 2-1 flattered Reading in my opinion. Thought it wasn’t going to be our night after missing the gajillion chances we did and the Reading equaliser. A crucial 3 points that may well count 9 league games from now.

Off to Sheffield we go.

JDT’s Blue and White Army! 🔵⚪️

Good to see us scoring towards the end of games recently.

What’s the tipple on a school night?

A Pinot Noir is terrific with a lamb curry!  Though started with a Guinness particularly after Captain Guinness romped in at 12/1 at Cheltenham!!

A terrific day, great win at Cheltenham, Rovers' win, bookies caned and super Indian and Pinot Noir.

Great result all round 😃😃

Pears got down like he was getting into bed for their goal. Ditto their keeper for the BBD goal. Nice backheel from Gally and a good finish from Hedges.

Love the reaction of the lady behind the "headbutt" incident.

Captain Guinness came 2nd. Can’t be over celebrating the place money now Merce! 
Love the mid-week Indian shout though!

Id say we should go for 10 wins in the last 10 games....getting us promoted.

10 wins still wouldn’t get us top 2 in my opinion

No question we deserved the win. 3-2 flattered us at Stoke, and 2-1 flattered Reading, so it's balanced out.

We can enjoy Sunday a bit more, now.

[1864roverite]

We take the points put them in the bag and move on. No point in moaning what if or what could have been we won end of!

Roll on Sunday the league games take a back seat and some of the team can rest up after Sunday ⚽️⚽️

Really looked like it was going to be one of them nights we are so familiar with but great character shown and Hedges was due something.

Brilliant that! Another very enjoyable evening at Ewood, the days of it feeling like a chore are becoming a distant memory.

Szmodics was absolutely superb, Travis excellent too. Everyone played their part, and while we should’ve won a lot more comfortably the three points were never in doubt.

Can’t wait for Sunday!

[Polky]

Get in! 
 

We need to start putting our chances away or we’ll get punished sooner rather than later.

Szomdics was immense tonight, didn’t stop running all night.
