Absolute heaven! What a bloody good team we had then......

Unreal isn't it! Forest were proper Kean to be fair that year but that swift direct style from rovers was very effective!

Everything they hit that day went in and

Bohinen was unplayable!

Hope we get 2013 off to a flier to give the new manager a bit of momentum with 2 wins on the bounce.

Got a nice feeling about today and going for a 2-1 win.

Bohinen? :huh:

Edit: Ah, you were talking about the game in 95.

if we keep billy sharp shackled, and run the midfield we should win this game!

forest are a good side, and they have a decent away record too.

hopefully another 3 points!! it would be a massive win if we get it!

COME ON ROVERS!!!

Just to point out.. keeping Sharp shackled would mean having a solid defense, so no chance. And running the midfield? We haven't done that in about 2 years..

we did it against barnsley...we ran the midfield, vukcevic and king stormed that game..

and its apparntley the same line up so i think we can again :)

Yes but that was against the team bottom of the league. We also thumped Peterborough when they were going through a dry spell. Doesn't fill me with confidence but Simon in the middle may be just what we need.

ROVERS: Kean, Henley, Dann, Hanley, Olsson, Murphy, Lowe, King, Rochina, Rhodes, Kazim-Richards.

Subs: Usai, Pedersen, M.Olsson, Nuno Gomes, Morris, Rosado, Goodwillie

Kazim-Richards in for Simon Vukcevic who misses out after limping off at HT against Barnsley on Sat.

Don't think that looks balanced, Simon can play centrally and always drifts in to help when out wide, rochina and king with rhodes and kazim is like a front four.

Should have been MGP in for Simon.

Agreed. I think Bowyer has done the right thing in trying to shore up central midfield with more players, but out of those three only Lowe is defensive-minded and he's still a bit of a headless chicken... Might get messy.
