rovers1993 Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 steven reid on now!!! soo good to see him on! come on rovers! come on reidy!
Rovers in America Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 BENTS! He's having a superb game today. The ref playing the advantage helps for once.
krislu Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Crystal clear penalty for rovers, but not given. How the Enligsh commentator could say it wasn't a pen is just bloody amazing!! WHAT?! The bloody fool says that newcastle should have had a pen on emertons handball.. How is that a pen but not ours?
Rovers in America Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Crystal clear penalty for rovers, but not given. How the Enligsh commentator could say it wasn't a pen is just bloody amazing!! Well there's the makeup non-penalty given. Clear hand ball by Blackburn in the box there.
rovers1993 Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 pedersen sooo close! tugay with a delightful pass
Rovers in America Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 And that one seals the game. Well done. Very entertaining game.
tony gale's mic Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 our defending has been shocking but going forward we've been much better second half.
T4E Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 I think thats the first Rovers goal he's ever scored from inside the area. Good result in the end.
rovers1993 Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 3 - 1....ahhh what a game though! we derserved it imo and i think reid should start! he was the unsung man in our midfield when he came on... linking up the play and always there for a pass...
DudeAbides Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Good game!!! and seein fat sam gutted is always good.
'arrod rover Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 always more satisfying coming from a goal behind to win convincingly! sounds like it was a good game although something has to be done about that defence!!
Tango Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Football's a funny old game. Against Villa we looked calm and composed, played some lovely football and got beat 4-0. Today we've suffered a barrage from Newcastle and defended desperately (and very poorly at times) and come away with a 3-1 win. Credit Warnock and Santa Cruz, I thought they were excellent today, while Samba, Mokoena and Emerton largely induced panic. Two brilliant goals by Bentley and a neat finish from Toogs has at least left me with a huge grin on my faces and nerves ripped to shreds! Like I say, football's a funny old game.
Exiled in Toronto Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 I think thats the first Rovers goal he's ever scored from inside the area. First time he's ever been that far up the pitch
Rover Down Under Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 The game was all Bentley. Back where he belongs and 2 beautiful strikes. But what was with the bypassing of midfield for the whole game? Credit to Roberts for his thoroughly unselfish pass to Tugay for the goal when he could have shot (and missed) himself. You are truly a team player!
Lathund Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Cracking game, very English with play going back and forth, very physical play, challenges flying in from all players. We were the better team, especially in the second half, but Newcastle still had several chances to score and could've done so had they been a bit sharper in front of goal. Friedel was solid, Warnock made many important challenges and would probably be my MotM. Samba had a mixed game, combined some brilliant challenges with schoolboy mistakes. Still, he's due the odd 'off' game, and I'm sure he'll be back to his usual self next week. We still don't seem to have "clicked" perfectly yet in attack, there's still too many occasions where the passer and the intended target aren't on the same page. Which can be bad news (If it stays that way) or good news (If it doesn't, meaning we'll only get better). EDIT: And of course, Bentley with two goals is certainly worthy of praise. Beautiful free kick.
artemorethanlabore Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Worst game by blackburn in a while, but the points there all the same. The defence has been downhill for a month and I can't say that mokoena deserves the spot over Savage. Time to do the switcheroo.
