Perhaps tangentially but on tinpot clubs v ‘pedigree’ clubs. I’m sure many on here have played sport of all kinds at school/local league level. And I’ve seen (from both sides) when a ‘pedigree’ club plays ‘newcomer’/’tinpot’ outfilt. So in cricket, the pedigree club playing against a ‘tinpot club’ away laughs at the crap pitch, the crap pads, the crap tea, the crap scoreboard (if there is one), the crap pavilion (no showers etc). But then the ‘tinpot’ team shows great togetherness on the pitch and roundly defeats the complacency of the ‘pedigree’ club. Or another metaphor springs to mind (sorry, pinot). Rovers are like all those poor post 1st World War 1 officers who can’t get a job but go round with a certain front retaining that aristocratic air but any discerning viewer can see the threadbare uniform, the whiff of decline and lack of capital. Good luck tomorrow lads -I'll be watching. 😉

Now imagine that Neymar transfer happened next summer!

I was in the Blackburn End for that game. The noise of the ball going in off the bar was insane.

Saw Ross Noble at Leamington yesterday. Not music but he was brilliant. His pitch for getting a musical version of The Human Centipede starring Elaine Page was hilarious. If you don't like strange, stream of consciousness based stuff then you'd hate it.

***** hell,that was one bad vindaloo i had last night

The Doobie Brothers - What A Fool Believes

Misery? Reality. And I agree, it could be tough but there is nothing to fear as such. As for the players escaping this misery - sounds like another post from backroom staff blaming home fans for dire performances. Edit. VI in charge for just over 9 months - played 15 home games and won 3. That might have something to do with misery and poor attendances.

Anybody watching the game last Friday night could see the smouldering embers of a good club and fanbase are still there. Anybody watching on Tuesday would then realise it needs a flame flower under it and quickly. All those running rovers and any of the ownership watching would just be thinking damn it Gudjohnsen we need you putting them away you're earmarked to be the next big sale son.

Regardless of backing, ambition or ‘upward momentum’ the point remains, it’s Wrexham we’re playing tomorrow. We’ve beat numerous teams within 1 point of them along with teams above them away from home this season. Like any game in this league it will be tough but it’s honestly no wonder the players look to escape this type of misery, which I’m pretty sure won’t be on show in Wales tomorrow.

Let's see what happens. It'll all come out in the wash.

That's the crux of it, despite what JH said above which I entirely agree with, the Stadium could be falling round down round our ears (we're not quite there yet) but if we were ten points clear at the top of the League everyone would be relatively happy.

He's 6ft plus, should be winning, plenty of ariel battles.

Or nine, if McLoughlin gets another yellow.

I can't understand, why Baradji didn't start against Q.P.R.

When it does end, we are in desperate trouble, unless these bunch of losers, start winning games at home.

Ismael "So remember team, don't forget what I told you this morning and let's make sure tomorrow we are fully aligned." Montgomery "What ev's boss. It's 12.30 already and Im famished bruv. Im off to Nando's innit".

The club that sold Gueye to us, must be rubbing there hands with glee. Somebody wants to teach him how to play football.

Probably squeezed in, to suit the mighty sky television.

That always goes well.

Remember stuff about 'tinpot Bournemouth' or Brentford –no history yada yada, we are founder members of the league etc etc. Nostalgia thread alive and kicking (enjoyable it is too). But this is where we are. Looking at others who have ambition, upward momentum, backing and functional systems in place.

He's in the learning process, but we're threadbare at the moment, with injuries. We desperately need strengthening in the January transfer window.
