Sam Gallagher, what a player 😂 hope he gets a hat trick tonight so that he definitely won't score Weds or for another 6 months

Coventry 3-2 98th minute. That's how you get promoted.

Have to hand it to Frank. He's made a huge difference there

Nearly rescued by a former player then kicked up the arse by a player we nearly signed

Sone generous officiating in my mind.  Bit like the opposite of us.  Boggles the mind how the ref sees and does not see certain things.  Advantage Coventry, they are deffo getting a playoff spot the league suits will be ecstatic.  Lampard this and Lampard that makes me wanna barf.  That win should seal our defeat today.

Jesus,you would have thought Coventry had just gained promotion!

Can’t stand Coventry 

[G Somerset Rover]

I swear they’ve been grabbing so many late winners. They do my head in even when it’s not beating us.

Don't like saying it about Leeds but they should have been award a penalty just now. Clear 100% right infront of referree. 

Crazy. What is the point of having rules.

[martonrover]

Leeds are (possibly) falling apart again.

[sharpysharps86]

Suddenly the title race is blown wide open.

Burnley have a strong chance of automatics now with them having t play Sheff United at home still.

Meanwhile we'll be trundling along somewhere between 9th and 13th I imagine.

There’s a brilliant Ian Curtis mural which train drivers have a great view of approaching Manchester Piccadilly, from the eastern side, (providing you are not approaching a red signal 🙂).

I love the story about how the name of the band came about, sad as that is.

On Christmas Day 2024 Rovers sat in 5th spot on 37 points (1.75ppg). 11 points behind Sheff Utd who were top. 

Today Rovers sit in 8th on 52 points having earned 15 points over the last 15 games and are now 24 points behind first placed Leeds who along with Burnley and Coventry have all gained 30 points (2ppg) or more over the time period.

Only the current bottom 3; Derby (8), Luton (6), and Plymouth (12), along with Stoke (14) have accrued less points than Rovers since the day before Rovers drew with Sunderland at Ewood.
