I heard somewhere that Charlton said there will be no more managerial changes this season.

allan does have a point. I keep the link in my favourites though, thanks. On the subject of Boro, I thought they played rather well for periods last night.

Well that's popped my bubble

Why would Andy Gray do that?? Does he phone the Ref every time twinkle toes Ronaldo doesn't get booked for a perceived dive? Very good point there.

Were the commentators openly dissing Wigan for lack of support like they do us. In the article Colin psted the fella makes similar points to some of my views I had aired when it comes to the young uns. The fact they do not want to be associated with average (for want of a better word) teams. They can't handle the mickey take from their peers so they opt for the teams that win. A cause of ours not helped by the constant stream of negativity we get in the media, commentators etc. I'm glad he saw to make that point it is a big one IMHO

What roller coaster ride emotionally. Whatching the first half I was really regretting my stance of saying we'll be alright, we're not going down because finally I was becoming conviced we were doomed. Very lethargic, no fight, no hustle the heads looked to be dropping and in all honesty I thought we were beaten by half time. Even more ###### off a McCarthy for not moving to the ball, defenders constantly nip round him and take the ball while he waits for it to get to him. Same in the air doesn't bother. Second half was much better, I was just lamenting the fact that yet again the official, Poll had a good game I thought so linesman, had cost us two points when Bentley smacked in the winner. Two of Benni's offsides were but the second he was on side. What ever happened to attacker getting the benefit of doubt and daylight between the defender and attacker. As I mentioned I thought Poll was about the best ref I've seen for us, others would have for sure yellowed McCarthy's dive in the box and perhaps Pedersens high foot Happy boy today. Poor dingles, lost a 2 goal lead to a supposedly very ordinary Sunderland side. Shame

Full game.

No, he appreciates them, he gives them special little titles like , losers, stupid and no marks. So if Stanley make the Prem you'll stop going on them. Bit like the clarrots, for years they have bad mouthed the prem , this year it looks like they can make a push for it and it's the "promised land" all of a sudden. And don't give me any crap about stanley, I was at the Formby game and followed 'em home and away in the Lancashire combination. Lived a couple of hundred yards away. When did you start going on then, just out of curiosity.

I'm referring more to to PrimaDunna's attitude when he's getting his balls busted in training.

Fox Soccer Channel, 12:15 pm Arizona time. Same day delay, so if you don't want to know the score stay away from the 'puter

I don't think he can hack it anymore, if he was an asset to Brum why would they let him go cheap and to us of all people. I have my doubts, how do we know he will get along with sparky? How will he ract at Sparky's training regimen? Can he even handle it. Low fee and pay per play is the only saving grace, just in case he does make it.

Good read that Royal. You seem like a decent bunch. Hope for a good game and a Rovers win as it's on telly over here and I am sick of seeing us losing every time we're on. Buggars up my whole day.

You a ref or summat, you're always defending them.

Man oh man we are a cynical bunch us Rovers fans.

Morientes did not exactly set the Prem alight either, doing good now though in he.

Hey, we all do stupid things as a kid, but we usually get older, wiser and see the error of our ways

It's really getting quite old, from the refs, the media and the pundits. I saw the highlights of Pedersons goal against the Geordies, what a cracker I thought the commentators were quite ho hum about it. Now I listen to the Commentary on the Spurs goals and the bloke was going effing nuts about what a great goal, with every one. Why can European officials manage to ref us in a reasonably fair manner but in the Prem we get all this borderline/phantom stuff called against us. I'm not paranoid am I? I'm not fancying ANY of those, I was hoping for something abit "sexier"

I think we will all take the same performance and the same result at Reading at this point won't we?

Errm, It might, heard Sparky on SSN and he was saying it'd be like have three new signings, would keep his eyes open for more. It came across to me like we might be still weeing with the willy we got (albeit with 3 additional inches)

I'd fancy giving Ooyah a shot with the armband.

TND is totally correct of course, it is about nostalgia. We do have a Stadium now to be proud of. Nowt wrong with a bit of nostalgia in my mind if it stirs fond memories.

Personally, I'd rather upend one quality team before we go out.

I dated Bill Bancrofts daughter. Or so I was told, I stood her up outside the Blackburn Mecca after only a few dates. I was crushed when I was told the Bancroft name was not mere coincidence, what could have been eh. I'd argue that some the middle of the Riverside where I stood could be quite vocal, and without doubt nuts, the Forest fans would not come in after they had cleared the BBE. Loved the BBE in my early teen years but loved the Riverside late teens

I hope so, I kind of liked him. I don't know about that Rev, better check see if Jim's lad has been mascot recently.

I do totally. But never been on the new one. the old ground has so much character. I don't however miss the men's bogs in the middle of the riverside. Have an aerial view photo of the old ground, love it.
