[Archived] Rovers v Wigan

[Nelsta]

oh bugger, time tio bite thoses nails 2-1.

[hollowsr]

What do players find so hard about staying as a wall? by the way it was never a free kick!

[philipl]

Parting of the wall.

[Amo]

Di Santo on for the equalizer.

[philipl]

We are going to be very fortunate to defend his lead now.

[hollowsr]

A while since we've seen 5-4-1!! Chimbonda on

[AndyB]

Chimbonda on for Diouf

[Amo]

Heard Sam on the touchline:

"Long as you can! Long as you can!"

Should stamp that on his forehead.

[joey_big_nose]

Have we ever played this badly in a half and scored 2 goals?

[Dan]

Just heard Sam say "as long as you can, as long as you can"

That is inviting pressure you bloody idiot, we need to get our foot on the ball!

[SamTheShrew]

what a time for the stream to go offline!

[Dufflite]

Just heard Sam say "as long as you can, as long as you can"

Balls! he said hang on to it for as long as you can you mischief making @$¥¥¥€!!

[Rover Down Under]

Dunn just made Roberts look like Pele.

[hollowsr]

Dunny missed a sitter, he's been poor today!

[The Dart]

Phew. We won the must win.

[unclejack28]

Phew is the right word..

[imy9]

THREE points off FIFTH, this is a crazy league this year.

[bigbrandjohn]

How I hope we can find an Indian version of JS Park. No wonder Asia loves United. Two classics

[hollowsr]

Phew I think sums that up, we did what we had to and that's all that counts. 2 goals that shouldn't have been, our 2nd and their goal. End of the day I'll take that any day!

[brian_gallagher85]

I can think of stronger. We did what we needed to, they look very poor.

Good day for us today elsewhere to be honest, bring on the Geordies.

[Bobby G]

A win but could we say undeserved one too? I think we can. We seemed like we were playing European champions the way we seemed afraid of them, pulling back further and further into our own half and area. Dunn should have killed it in stoppage time but its disappointing that we couldnt really dominate a team like Wigan at home.

Hopefully we kept the performance for Wednesday.

[Mr. E]

some here will be delussionally happy that we got 3 points, but this is one of the lowest points Rovers have been in for a while. The referee handed us a win at home vs Wigan Athletic, I mean what else is there to say. Nothing resembling football was played today. Even by BFS's standards. We play like this we'll lose 9 out of 10, today just happened to be that one time.

[Andy]

Who cares if it was deserved - it's three points.

We'd played some blinders this season and come away with nothing.

All of a sudden, we're midtable and a few points from the top teams.

Follow it up with a result against Newcastle and we're back on track for the season...

How???

[brian_gallagher85]

Lucky, but never undeserved and even if it was United won title after title with games like that.

We where 2-0 up and they got lucky with the free.

Apart from the 3 points the one thing that has to be taken from the last two games is that we have to continue with TWO upfront.
