When he goes. 

Either way, terribly out of form side amidst the current disruption away versus a West Brom side off the back of a morale boosting win and with a much better team. Home win.

Yed we thought a year ago and we beat Stoke

And then nearly got relegated.

Where was Sanderson yesterday? 

Some comfort our best were rested at least to give us some hope of a fighting chance

Played for Birmingham in the previous round

[ruggles1995]

3-0 loss, and and knowing our luck we lose someone like dennis to a hamstring injury just to top it off, the beginning of the plummet?

hard to stay positive really. a really horrible fixture to have off the back of a qpr defeat and manager out the door. 

Or a Damien Johnson master class 1-0 win.....

When Damien Johnson was running what was effectively the reserve team years ago I thought he had a bright future. Then Moggy came along and marginalised him.  Since then what has he been doing ? Last I heard he was chief drone pilot at the training ground. I can’t see him running the show even for one or two games now. It’ll probably be Low who funnily enough never seems to be taken away when one of our managers leaves. I wonder why ?

Johnson took the lead for the Stoke game. 

Johnson works one on one players to improve their game and get better. 

Johnson from what I've heard doesn't want to be head coach or manager

I thought Eustace was in charge for that Stoke game?

A year ago against Stoke the majority of our players where happy that JDT had been replaced.

How do you think the players will feel when Eustace to Derby is confirmed?

no idea, why dont you ask them if you wanted to know but Eustace is taking training before meeting Rovers management. So I say it's 50/50 whether he goes or not

Don't need to ask them it's obvious to anyone with half a brain the majority of our players will be gutted when he leaves

Of course it is so what's the point of asking such a pointless question when you already knew the answer. utter pointless

It was his first win with us.

[roversfan99]

Eustace isnt even out of the door and his Stoke "win" goes back to Johnson.

[davulsukur]

4-0 defeat here.

The game is borderline a side issue due to the sheer incompetence of our ownership, when it should be a huge game for us.

Armstrong (and Mowbray) to come back and haunt us in tremendous fashion.

It'll be Damien Johnson, who's the poor sod in the dugout also.

 

[Upside Down]

We'll get a win here. The players will give Eustace a good send off.

[Michael123458]

West Brom 0 0 rovers take all day long….

West Brom 1 2 rovers of course 

we win with Big Mac headers from x2 corners 

RTID 

 

[Valconite]

Well expect a thrashing now. Player will be pissed off with the board/owners and with Eustace abandoning them after preaching togetherness and all that rubbish.

[Trinidad Rover]

This will be a corker

[waynerovers]

Don't expect anything other than a loss for this and a miserable atmosphere on the field and in the stands.

[davulsukur]

Hope to god someone is taking a VenkysOut banner to this one 🤞

[Waggy76]

Can you get tickets on the night for this game?? 

[Penwortham Blue]

I hope not but I can’t see anything other than a comprehensive home win. My real worry is that feelings could run so high, that we potentially see a Le Saux / Batty scenario unfold with everyone blaming each other.
