He's not fighting a battle philipl , just stating the point that what alot of us got lambasted for, for having the insight to question his attitude and not be blinded by the goals, although welcome. Not once have I or any other critic said he had to run around like a madman, this was just brought up by those who thought he could do nothing wrong. Only Tris has raised good points previously for us critics as he has above , to which I have counter replied with explanation as have others. What Hughes is doing/has done is only what some of us suggested, and by the look of his second half performance on Sunday and his previous sub appearance, would appear to be doing the trick.

Not quite TND as ths support thing would apply to many a club - how many did Birmingham bring? As I and others have said before - last night might have been cheap but there is not as much money to go around to sepnd on Football. I for one could not afford to go last night even at the cheaper prices as I have other commitments for my monies. Its not considered an important aspect from the Clubs either looking at the teams put out across the board over the 2 nights so why should fans treat it any different? Bar certain clubs and maybe certain games the draws serve up, traditionally its never reallya good crowd drawer anyway.

I have been one of the biggest critics of Benni on here, but thought he had an ok game upto his substitution yesterday - but have to agree with Abbey on his straight down the tunnel exit. - also think Hughesy needs to explain the principle of the offside to him. As Eddie states we just don't appear to know what to do with ball. On top of that we need to cut out the defensive mistakes we keep making.

There weren't no clarets in the Moorings - it was full of Rovers What had happened is just before the convoy of Rovers fans - a convoy of Burnleh had just been marched up and they where holding you back to keep 'the distance' between both sets of fans

Cracking OJ cracking. Could you remember beforehand or after reading the articles as I can hardly remember any games post 86/87 even though I know I was definitely at the Brighton game. Anyway this made me chuckle from the report 'Two players were booked by referee Key who found himself in trouble with the crowd on more than one occasion' Looks like things haven't changed and it was actually Wimbledon players that got booked then!!

So would I ... but again would also probably have to be at one of the lower league teams also. This is what the campaign is all about by trying to highlight it to other fans and show a bit more solidarity amongst supporters to try generate some interest and persuasion to the powers that be that this is what fans want. Its not about having all standing grounds ... just areas where people can stand if they WANT to ( an aspect that some people seem to find hard to understand about the campaign)

OK As promised now the transfer window as shut for the time being - not sure whether he deserves a tribute for it considering his performances of late or if it now typifies him but for the hell of it As mentioned there was a clue in the original thread and you where getting warm and it is a MADNESS track (ONE STEP BEYOND and B side to 'IT MUST BE LOVE' Although was popular during the 80's it may be a tune some are not familiar with, but its one of my favourites and one that has had a ablast or two by England Fans in its originality on away trips in the 80's. So KAYOS Productions presents to you to the tune of 'Ben and Breakfast Man' ........ 'BED N ’BREAKFAST PEDERSEN (FREEKICK MAGICIAN) WELL THERES A MAN WE KNOW AND HE LIKES HIS CUT N BLOW BUT WE DON’T REALLY MIND IF HE HAS THEM ALL THE TIME BUT IT HAS TO BE SAID THAT HE IS KNOWN AS GAMST NOT PED AND A FIRST WE THOUGHT HIM A GOFER AS HE SEEMED LIKE A LOAFER HE’S CHANGED A LOT SINCE THEN BUT SOME OF HIS WAYS HE JUST CAN’T MEND AND WHEN WE PLAY CORNERS & FREEKICKS ARE HIS SAY IT’S NOT A WHIM OR FAD HE HAS PRACTICED SINCE HE WAS A LAD FOR WHICH HE HAS NO SHAME HE IS A MASTER AT IS HIS GAME HE DOESN’T NEED A HAND HE IS THE FREEKICK MAGICIAN HE IS, HE IS, HE IS S THE FREEKICK MAGICIAN HE IS, HE IS, HE IS……….. ' I thank you

For anybody interested or is in the area and is for standing to be brought back I have received the following mail from SUSD 'Some VERY good news. Wycombe Wanderers FC has agreed to host a Fans United Safe Standing Day at its home match on Sunday 9 September 2007 kick-off 1.30pm. This game is live on Sky.

The club will be invited all the other 91 clubs and all the 145 MPs who have signed the pro safe-standing House of Commons Early Day Motion. GO FOR IT PEOPLE, HIT THE PHONES/EMAIL NOW! Regards The Stand Up Sit Down Team'

Looks like I have probably put the grey cloud over Pedersen the way he has been playing lately May have to delay release again on this. And no b12 - not House of Fun

Nope, not that but I do love the Nutty Boys

As mentioned its one of my favourite tunes.... there's a clue in the 1st thread. Come up with alot of possible tunes/two liners etc just when I'm driving ... you know just start singing along and putting your own words in. Some I have tried but died on their feet as Bob Fleming well knows and some just disappear and are forgotten (posted a couple on here). As mentioned some are just little chants as this one could end up being, but its also a full song (however its possible that its a tune some people have never heard) It could catch on, it might be crap to some and then again he could even move clubs!!

Good effort Daremz - I actually toyed with this tune but it has lent its hand in the past to certain footy whims.

I have penned a song for our enigmatic Norwegian fella that I had originally penned for the Chelski Semi Final at OT (good job I didn't) Anyway I am about to reveal it after the Transfer Window has shut its door just to make sure he is still here. Lets just say there is madness to it (literally) ..... and is based on one of my favourite Tunes Feel free to take some guesses but let it be known there is no other footy anthem to this tune (at least not that I'm aware of)

or Chelski have said they are not interested

Shame - still think he could have done a job for us - more than Henchoz anyway. Anyway, goodluck Andy and thanks for the service

Well it would appear most do on here he be geebe, especially the attitude he is showing at the moment if all is to be believed. Remember a few us are not new 'knee jerkers on this - the warnings where there early doors. Not saying he is a bad player American, just if he played the way he is probably capable of he might have got nearer that mark. I just find it funny now people seem so surprised with his actions - I don't want to see him leave for a lowly fee however if we can make on him, I say take the money - Hughesy will replace him.

He hasn't anyway imo!!

Whether or not Benni stays or goes -it appears to me that people are forgetting about Matty. He has already proven he can hack it and score goals, has just had a decent season , got England recognition and will be all the better for it next season. So if he goes and we get decent money and Roberts stays I'm sure Sparky will have an Ace up his sleeve (which I still think is Bellamy) but may well take a gamble on the likes of Nugent or a.n.other.

the thing is, that is what some of us where saying about him anyway - it was of the opinion that he was an athlete and not a footballer (Bert#1). People know my feelings on Bert#1 as I haven't gone quietly about it on here, however, I tip my hat and salute the guy (Bert#2)as I feel he has just had an excellent season. May not be the best RB but has filled in well for Rovers

Same here, hot day if I remember as well A s for Derby, aggro started before the match with the police turning around a coach of Rovers fans somewhere in Derby and I think word got around After the match Rovers fans where trying to get into the Derby end

So its Werby now is it OJ Anyway remember that game - its when Dunn got crocked by Ravenelli and has not been the same since.

Strange but that's what I think or Villa at home Don't know if anybody else has picked up on it before but our opening games never seem to be the glamour ones if you know what I mean and we always seem to either play a team that has struggled the previous season or has just been promoted.

Same here, we where on our way to the Lyon game at the time- was hoping to god we didn't sign him but when we got on the Ferry at Dover a Derby fan confirmed that we had!!

to be fair to Benni and I am one of his biggest critics, as that report states i remember him saying he had already said he would not be playing again until they could sort the arrangement re the club/country debate.

No he can't Mclaren you k Nob - he can be ours and Rovers BENTLEY!!
