Backroom Tom Posted November 26, 2011 Backroom Share Posted November 26, 2011 Urgh I was hoping Delap and Crouch were out, even less confident now. It's funny I've been watching Sky Sports this morning and they are advertising tomorrows football and the Carling cup games featuring the big teams but nothing about today. Can't say I blame them to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 To win today we'll need to score at least 3. Stoke are strong and despite a poor start to the season will beat Rovers with relative ease today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 The Sky pundits still don't understand it, no mention of the results to date under Kean, all about how the players are behind him and minority don't want him as manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torgeir Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Hanley :/ 3-0 Stoke with a brace from Crouch and Jon Walters back to haunt us. Halsey to give a pen against Hanley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some interesting stories are circulating about side payments keeping some of them sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imy9 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Expect a thumping. 2-0 by half time. 2-2 and then 4-2 by the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RibbleValleyRover Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Stoke are bound to turn their poor form around sometime as they are a solid and very organised side (the complete opposite of Rovers). Rovers are conceding two goals per game and need 3 to draw/win. I just can't see us putting 3 goals past Stoke no matter how poor their current form is. 3-0 Stoke. Crouch with two and Walters with the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinz Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Expect a thumping. 2-0 by half time. 2-2 and then 4-2 by the end. OMG I can hear Kean's post match interview already: "We were excellent, totally dominated them second half, showed character to get back to 2-2, blabla" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Only thing which gives us a chance is Stoke have been very poor recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipl Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Rovers: Robinson, Lowe, Hanley, Dann, Givet, Rochina, Nzonzi, Pedersen, Hoilett, Formica, Yakubu. This choice of subs for Rovers is scary Subs: Bunn, Petrovic, Blackman, Goodwillie, Vukcevic, Roberts, Henley. Scary for us, not Stoke. Includes three chronic non-scoring forwards. Who is Kean going to chuck in with the regulation reirement of Rochina in the 70th minute? BBC again- 1232: So we've got our teams for the early kick-off. Anything standing out for you? I think Peter Crouch might get some joy out of that Blackburn back-line, not least because of his unique height, but also because Blackburn's back-line are quite accomodating at the best of times. I suspect young Grant Hanley is in for a tough afternoon for the visitors. I wonder if that nice Mr Pulis has noticed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllRoverAsia Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 What a contrast on syles there will be on show. Stoke with their tough tackling hoof ball and Rovers the Bracelona of the PL. Where are my pills mum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booth Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Pre-match interview with Kean starts with a big beaming grin, not a friendly smile, or a face of concern because the team is down at the bottom. Comes in grinning like the Cheshire Cat. The man knows no shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emge Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Kean on Sky, 'we'll continue to pick up points in the road' WHAT ? He always twists the truth the way he wants. And the owners reads the quotes and think: "Yep, he's the right man. He is a good thinker and a positive man". I'm about to throw up!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joar Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 My guess here would be Walters giving us a real thumping. Rovers'll concentrate so fully on the aerial threats that he'll be free to run around unchallenged for most of the match... Like I said to someone when 3-1 up at Norwich: "We need one more before I have any faith in winning." I still feel that way, and don't think we'll get 4 against Stoke, so 3-1 to Stoke.

S60tti_BRFC Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Kean Post Match, 'Even though we were beat 4-0 their is positives to take, we entered their half 3 times, had one shot that reached row Z and had a passing completion rate of 38%. All these positives can be worked on in training. But you've got to remember we have all these key players out injured... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
