No Nay Never Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 Whilst Sunday certainly isn't a must win game for Rovers, It is definantly a must not lose if we are going to challenge for this 4th place, I think anyone on here would settle for 7 points out of the next 9, and that would surely see us sitting in 4th place after the Boro game.

greggyk Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Well we cant be doing too badly cos as of Saturday after the Arsenal game, there were no tickets left in the lower tier. 387480[/snapback] thats because Rovers sent back the 600 tickets from the lower tier!! They are only selling in the upper. I was able to buy 4 tickets in the upper yesterday with no problem. We probably will sell out soon as there are only 1,100 available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salothsar Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Biggest match of the season so far. If we win, it will spur (no pun intended) us on and I rekon we'll win the next 5, which we certainly should do, and be right up there with a great chance of champions league football next season. If we loose, it will break our spirit and we'll get a very small handfull of points from the next 5 or so games and just miss out on any European football next year. So its bound to be a draw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 According to my Spurs supporting friend they have sold out, including the tickets we sent back in the lower tier. Let's hope we can sell out in the top tier. It is as bigger game as we have had in the league for a long while. That's the incentive to go.

ihtd Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) Big Big Big Game, this match has implications on the rest fo our season. Lose and bye bye Champions League. Win and maybe our next home game will be a sell out due to the possibility of the lads chasing Champions League football.

BlueMonday Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 If games like these don't grab the interest and get people out of the pubs, then nothing will. Coming off the back of a good win, a tough but winnable game a chance to put us in European contention. Ticks all the boxes. Would hope for a good turn out against Villa on the back of this one. Come on you super Blues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbergeehh Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Tottenham play football a bit like we do these days, they rely on pace up front and quick one-two combinations. Carrick has a Tugay'ish role in midfield, whilst Jenas undoubtably is more of a goalscoring midfielder than Savage.. I sure hope Lennon is injured for this one, he's the kind of player to have a field day against Gray. Dawson and King are good centerbacks, but especially Dawson is relying on his strength, and might struggle against Bellers' pace. Also, Stalteri is a poor defender, and Lee is also too attacking for the good of the team sometimes. Bentley and Reid, and perhaps Peter sometime in the 2nd half, could certainly make them pay here. Friedel Neill, Todd, Nelsen, Gray Reid, Tugay, Savage, Bentley Bellers, Pongolle Tottenham 1 Blackburn 2 Bellamy (16') - cross from the left after Bentley's made mince-meat of Stalteri, Bellamy to tap it in on the near post. Defoe (42') Bentley (64') Remember, you heard it here first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) You can see its Cole because Yorke's name/number would be creeping into the picture. 387259[/snapback] You can see Friedel on the far left of the photo, i think he is hugging Neill. No too confident about this one. 2-0 Spurs. Edited March 1, 2006 by Jordan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipl Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I see Spurs are doing a Mourinho on us and are talking about signing MGP in the summer- here's hoping they are as successful with these tactics as Mourinho was against Barca. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepyjack Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 So far, they've failed to win against any of the top 8 - Chelsea, Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool, ourselves, Bolton or West Ham.387149[/snapback] Fact. Rovers 3-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Gayle RulesOK Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 You can see Friedel on the far left of the photo, i think he is hugging Neill.

Finch Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Tight game this one. 0-0 or 1-0 Spurs I can remember from the last couple, their defence was a credit to them and there was no way we were going to get past them. Hope I'm wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radagast Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) Was that when the spuds fans started to throw their completely used season tickets onto the pitch? 1-1 this time. 387581[/snapback] Yeah. Ooooh a real show of defiance there, lads. I'm never confident when we play Spurs. I don't know why, I think its just because I'm fearing comeupance for all the insults I throw their way for the rest of the season. So I think we'll lose this one.

tchocky Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) 387259[/snapback] While we're at it, left to right: Friedel - Neill - Kelly - Tugay - Cole - Johansson - Souness - McEveley - Todd - Flitcroft - Duff - Dunn - Taylor Missing from the picture are Yorke, Sukur, Hignett (had been substituted so would be wearing more than the person hugging Jay) and Jansen (don't think he's the one hugging Brad as he's not that tall). As for this seasons version of the game, I'm going for a bore draw, 0-0. Someone in our team to be red carded.

blue/white Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I see a wide open match (as per usual with these 2 clubs) featuring plenty of ooh s and aah's.. Spuds 2 - Rovers 3 where we pull it out in the dying moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greggyk Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Anyone else get the feeling that John Toshack will play Bellamy for the full 90mins in Wales friendly tonight. He'll probably end up injured meaning he'll have to miss Sundays game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
