[Archived] The Sunderland Preview Mark II

[BRFC1995]

carlos could easily win this game for us 2nd half, its all be played in the sunderland half just need a cool head to bury a chance

[philipl]

Warnock booked again...

[RibbleValleyRover]

He's been pretty deadly on corners and free kicks so far. I think all 5 of those corners in succession were pretty much spot on.

There is an article on the Sky sports website saying that Pedersen is going to work hard to get his place back. Perhaps dropping him has given him the kick up the backside he needed?

Yellow card for Warnock, late challenge.

[BRFC1995]

hahahahahaha just seen fulham goal, spuds goalie is worst ever

[Rovers in America]

Ugh, what was Roberts doing there? He just let Sunderland have it when he had a chance at a breakaway if he just touched the ball.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Is Ooijer on the left? Maybe it was just a case he was out of position and was dealing with a threat.

Has anyone worked out this formation yet?

same lol

I think it might be

Robinson

Simpson Samba Zurab Ooijer

Pedersen Mokoena Andrews Warnock

Roberts Santa Cruz

Not 100% sure though, a lot of roaming.

[rovers1993]

on the positive note:

peds is playing REALLY well today so far.

[Rovers in America]

Yeah, lots of roaming, I've seen Pedersen out on the left some too.

[Sysagent]

GO ON SAMBA!!!

Rovers 1 - Sunderland 0

Right before half time superb!

[rovers1993]

SAMBAAAAAA!!! LETS ALL DO THE SAMBBA!!! YES!

1-0!!! peds with the corner!

hahahaha amazing header as well!

[BRFC1995]

no way roberts expects to play 2nd half, dreadful

[Rovers in America]

Hmm, I'm just a little behind, just saw Sunderland's corner

[BRFC1995]

get in!!!!!!!!

[philipl]

WOOHOO

And MGP is producing the goods today

[thecomebackid]

YEAHSSSS!!!

[Rovers in America]

That was a header with authority by Samba.

[BRFC1995]

guy is a monster, should do that more..........great header

[RibbleValleyRover]

Superb corner by Pedersen and a great header by big Chris.

I was just going to say maybe Roberts might go off at half-time for Carlos as we were missing that killer ball, or maybe Tugay for Andrews. With us getting the goal i expect us to stick with the gameplan and team. Maybe introducing Carlos or Tugay with 30 mins to go.

[Rover Down Under]

Deserve to be in the lead. Peds is playing well and Andrews is doing good too. Roll on more goals in second half (once we take off Roberts!)

[BRFC1995]

puts us 11th. be 10th if spuds equalise

[philipl]

Stats, Rovers first:

Pos 59-41

on 7-2

off target 4-1

Bookings 1-3

Fouls 4-7

[Presty On Tour]

Finally got some images and 10 seconds later we score, thanks to all involved for getting me the gear and setup!

Seen the first half highlights and we look alright, Pedersen looks on form.
