[OJRovers]

steady on!

[Simon Says]

Fancy us to get a point, 1-1.

[FourLaneBlue]

This boro site seems to be expecting payback for last season...

Boro Must Rout Rovers

I'll be optimistic and say 2-1 Rovers!

''It's weird to think of Blackburn playing in Europe and that underlines what a fine season they had in the league last term. They are bound to play ugly as usual today. Let's make sure we underline who is boss today''

It took me an age to decide whether to go today, but when I sit and remember how I felt at half time last Sunday the decision was easy.

We can't defend, we have showed no sign of being able how to defend in any game. Therefore, I fully expect a 3-0 defeat today.

I would be absolutely delighted if we can manage an ugly no action 0-0, but I seriously doubt this will happen.

Let's go 451 and start Mokoena. Mind you Benni is no lone striker.

I have started the day rather pessimistically haven't I?

Boro 4 Rovers 1

(I am usually wrong....)

[Bobby G]

Just one change:

Nonda in for Jeffers otherwise the same lineup that beat Man City.

[Ozz]

Three years ago Macarthy and Nonda upfront would have had most of Europe worried.

Worries me now!

Boro 0 Rovers 1

M'boro lineup looks really defensive, 4-5-1 or 5-4-1, where will Parnaby play? I guess Southgate fears the McCarthy-Nonda -duo too I'm guessing 2-2, both of our starting strikers scoring and Zurab-Ooijer -duo allowing two easy goals to Morrison and Yakubu.

Ou La La 1-0 rovers! Nonda

[OhmiBRFC]

has anyone got a link they can PM me?

[Head the Ball]

Get in

Anywhere i can listen it?

[Bondi-Rover]

So I can't listen to commentary thru my Rovers.co.uk membership because being smart enough to not be a Windows user I'm excluded from accessing it. And because I'm living in Australia I can't listen to the BBC commentary.

any ideas anyone? Email me bondi5000@mac..com with a link would be greatly appreciated if it's deemed illegal to do so here.

cheers!

Half Time

[Cocker]

Jeff Steling has just said that Boro do struggle at home against lesser clubs - cheeky git

Pogatetz clattered into McCarthy , and not even a whistle blown by Poll

Benni limps off the field, Hugh es isnt happy, doesnt look good......

[modes98]

MGP has been ###### AWFUL! This fool needs dropping asap, he really is crap.

Yeah his 2 goals last game were awful. He does get goals and thats what it's about. Peter will come on to give him a kick up the butt!

Our defence seems to be getting forward an awful lot!

Decent enough game!

Nonda almost in for the second but pogatetz clears!

[modes98]

3 Points in the bag!

Boring second half! Come On!

[Wolverine]

Am I right in saying we are in 10th now after that win?

[andrew92]

get in! really good away win and what a clean sheet

[Manchester Blue]

Should have known we would have won. We always do when I don't go!!! ;-)

[G Somerset Rover]

Sounds like Emo had another stormer! We're hagning on to leads now as opposed to letting them slip away which is very encouraging. Also great to hear that Ooijer had a steady game.
