goozburger Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 I was watching some highlights of yesterday's Carabao Cup matches and this particular bit stuck out at me. One or two mentioned Aasgaard earlier in the transfer window, but I assume it wasn't based on his penalty-taking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRFC4EVA Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 New ground for many. Relatively local. Opportunity to stand on a terrace. League 2 opposition so young players will get another chance. Top draw, no complaints. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Southampton Rover Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 What's good is that it gives us another opportunity to put out a similar team. Great experience for our youngsters and those on the cusp of the first team. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure you only get 800/900 or so tickets so will definitely sell out as a new ground … get those 1875 memberships bought!

SamTheShrew Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) I went to Harrogate away in either 08 or 09 to see my old local team Stafford Rangers play as I was living in Leeds at the time. Cracking non-league game, Rangers coming from 2-0 to lead 2-3 before last minute deflected heartbreak equaliser. I’m sure it’s changed from then, but one of the corners was much, much lower than the rest of the pitch, so much so that the player taking the corner actually disappeared from sight! Very bizarre. Couldn’t fathom why they hadn’t just put down a load of soil in the pre season to build it up. Will be a good trip for those able to make it 👍 just looked it up: what a last 10 minutes or so!

bazza Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Damned annoyed I couldn't watch or listen to the draw. Fuck off Sky. Radio 5 live didn't have it as well. Pissed off. Good draw for Rovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperBrfc Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Great draw. Just what we needed, another good chance to progress. Surely, this has a chance of being televised? Salford v Leeds will be guaranteed as one. There's Tranmere v Leicester and Chelsea v AFC Wimbledon in the running too, I'd expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyblue Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 No chance it’ll be on Sky considering there’s only two shown. Doncaster V Everton, Newport V Brentford others they would pick before us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
