  1. Reminder of how few Rovers games were on TV and what an occasion it was when we were televised.
  2. Great match intro JoeH! Will repeat what I posted ion the Bristol City thread- City are on a run of games without wins and we extended it for them. Wigan are top of the current form table on their own- W4 D1 L0 without letting goals in! This is one hugely challenging game. Win this and we really are contenders.
  3. Here's hoping Tony can conjure up a 12 match winning run now. If we make it to the Premier League, I think we'd have more chance teaching a stone to swim than Mowbray keeping us up.
  4. I tipped Rovers to finish 7th and unfortunately it looks a very good call. Will be very pleasantly surprised to make it into the play offs. Having said that from 3rd to 12th there is no side you would write us off against if we get into the play off lotto. Leeds and West Brom have too many points already for either of them realistically to slip back so we won't be facing either of them if we make it. Even if Brentford win 8 on the bounce now they get to 85 points and Leeds and West Brom only need 2 points a game to pip them. The biggest challenge will be getting Mowbray's noddle in the right mind set. On that basis he made an excellent start on Saturday.
  5. We extended Bristol City's run of 5 without a win. Next up Wigan W4 D1 L0 zero goals conceded on their own at the top of the current form table- don't want them extending that run.
  6. But what a fabulous and unexpected pain in the rear-end if it were to happen.
  7. Well that was lovely despite Walton's awful attempt for their goal (strengthen those wrists again) and the ref howler denying JRC a perfectly good debut goal. Credit to Mowbray. Everything he did - selection, tactics and subs worked to perfection. No players were weak but shout outs to Bennett- no loose passes or wild lunges JRC- given run around early on but grew in stature Evans and Travis were immense in midfield and Downing added the class Brereton- what a shame his feet went when round the keeper with an open goal. In all fairness players were slipping all over the field and I think the ref was not making allowances either although Bristol City were niggly dirty. Samuel gave them some frights when he came on. Arma missed horribly and then scored sublimely. And Tosin is just different class. Fantastic goal to round off a commanding performance. Well done lads. Would fancy Wigan in front of a raucous away crowd but...
  8. JRC had an excellent game. Was referring also to that horrible offside decision against us and the back pass caught by their keeper
  9. Their log-in access system has collapsed. Just make it free for view until it is fixed
  10. They should take the sign in off the site and just make it free to view until they solve the problems
  11. Sorry, but there has been a problem signing you in. Please try again later.
  12. Big Ben's Big Chance. Can't say the crowd got at him unless he trips over a pigeon. ifollow not working- tried all my usual hacks and just get a bouncing ball.
