[Archived] Manchester City V Rovers Preview

[G Somerset Rover]

Salgado off for chimb..must be injured?

[Amo]

Chimp on for Salgado.

Preparing to earn that snazzy new contract.

[Mr. E]

...Salgado has gone off too.

The Gods hate us. They really do.

Salgado off chimbonda on

[BPF]

Chimp on for Salgado.

Doing what he does best there...

[rebelmswar]

Bloody hell what are city doing?

Almost another howler.

[Balwer]

Salgado went in with a slight thigh injury according to Andy Cryer, so it might be that.

[Andy]

Eating Wasabi Peas and watching Football, brilliant combination. Get them in Ewood!

Always fancied trying them, but never sure if I'll like them...

[BuckyRover]

Where did you buy them from?

[rebelmswar]

Always fancied trying them, but never sure if I'll like them...

They are rather nice. Can be eye watering at times, like watching Rovers.

Good combo.

Commentators make sure to point out our lack of away fans.

1-1 viera assist by Egor.

[Dan]

###### defending

[Amo]

1-1.

Acres of space in the middle (AGAIN), and slack defending down the left (AGAIN).

[RibbleValleyRover]

1-1 it was coming...

[blue/white]

Those wasabi peas are quite good with a nice pilsner! Too early for that here---just wrapped up my breakfast with Rovers.

[Mr. E]

the defense has not shown up at all in the 2nd half. at all.

[Dan]

That'll be that now, the flood gates will be opened.

[BPF]

Where did you buy them from?

That's an important point. There are a lot of terrible products claiming to be Wasabi Peas but are extremely weak tasting.

Go to your local Chinese supermarket.

1- 1 f********** S*****

The commentators are so annoying I can barely stand it.

[BRFC1995]

Here comes the hiding, I hate the inevitable

[rebelmswar]

Defencive shambles for the goal.

[tony gale's mic]

Who was picking Vieira up??!

[Rover Down Under]

Poor marking from Givet there. Nzonzi on for Grella.

[rebelmswar]

Zonzi on

[Amo]

Nzonzi on for Grella...

[Dan]

They will be no Benjani today then. The midfield isn't supporting the attack enough for me, though that has been the case for a while now.

[RoverRich]

Unfortunately it only seemed a matter of time until they scored. Terrible defending. What was Givet doing??!! He should have cut that out and never have let it get through to Vieira.
