3 more vital points, a great performance (including not collapsing after their equaliser) and JRC continues to be the replacement signing we didn’t make!

Valuable 3 points, another clean sheet, better gate and back in the play-offs. League table though doesn’t hide the (lack of) goals for / difference, but we definitely going in the right direction. If not enough this season, certainly bodes well for next.

Vital 3 points. A lot of character shown to get those. Carter really has cemented his place and to be fair he deserved the chance after such a good spell at Pompey.

Good point especially considering we have no striker, were behind, away to WBA… Need to make sure the upcoming home fixtures fire us back into the play-offs. Surely we have to try Leonard, or frankly ask Simon Garner if he still has his boots?

Fair play there Beale.

For us against Arsenal.

Last time I was at Watford we won 1-0. Marcus Bent. I had £1 at 66-1 on this and I was a student, so great times. Mind you got some odd looks cheering throw ins in the latter stages of the match! Id take 1-0 again, suspect we are on for a thumping.

Okay… Positives: Clean sheet, didn’t lose to Wigan (as often happens), JRC has really taken his chance, Thomas looked lively, Carter again did well, Pears did well. Negatives: We failed to beat the team at the bottom of the league (again), Vale apparently played in the match (unconfirmed), possession didn’t equal good chances, goals are looking hard to find. To be fair, decent performance which on another night we could and should have won. Someone other than Vale or Gallagher has to be tried in the next match.

Re: Vale. During the Brum replay Elliott Bennett was the co-commentator. He was very positive about Jack, scores loads in training etc. Maybe there is something that will click? Wigan are pants but we always lose to them and any struggling club. 1-2.

Good result and performance. 👏🏻 Elliott Bennett gave some good insight as covers on the Rovers Live, still a big fan of the club.

Isn't it on the bookies websites? Last round was on BetFair

How rubbish that this isn't on any form of TV. There are literally tens of us who want to tune in.

What’s happened to lower league (star) players ever being snapped up? Are they not as good as they used to be, or is scouting these divisions ‘below’ scouts these days? Surely there has to be some upcoming stars there?

I hope we put out a decent team - I like a good cup run (not that we have had (m)any of late) plus a boost (if we win) for team.

Ward and Blake - shudder. How many teams did they relegate between them?!

Yes but what can the club do if BBD doesn’t want to sign a new contract? He will have been offered deals, probably best at the club, but the reality is when he was on form much bigger (Spanish) clubs will have been circling - who can offer far more. All the cards are with BBD. Now the goals have dried up we are all in ‘no man’s land’. Rovers get much wrong, but on this, it is just the way the cookie crumbles.

We could do with Andy Cole and Nicky Reid!

We often get a mention on Price of Football - which covers the money side of football clubs.

Maybe Dack as the central striker? No tracking back, just put the ball in the back of the net, or at the very least spare us seeing Gallagher lumbering around. We don’t have a good record against Bristol but it’s our turn to win in our win, lose season.

Well that was a real low point… Look, like @TheRoversReturnsaid if you had offered us this position at the start of the season we would have grabbed it with both hands. The squad is also younger, so in theory will get better, rather than worse on and off the field. As pretty much with every club we need a striker who can take the chances, we should have been ahead at half-time.

Great list of one match wonders… https://brfcs.com/magazine/articles/the-rovers-one-match-club/337

I think same on Betfair

Our match isn’t on any UK TV is it?

Phew! Much needed 3 points - vital to hang on in, plus confidence.

Fair.
