Unlucky fellas, those questions were really tough & as said above, the lads from Bolton were superb. Done as all proud there.

But...... Luca Toni? 🤦‍♂️😄. I did have a bit of a chuckle at that with the amount of times he gets a mention on here.

Oh I know…🤦‍♂️

There were some really incredible quizzers in the competition (and some terrible ones!) and very strong teams like Middlesbrough, West Brom and Burton Albion didn’t even make the semis. The others semi-finalists, Leicester and Plymouth, would most likely have beaten us too.

Bolton were deserved winners, although we wish we could have made it a tighter finish! Niall in particular was phenomenal – the first season he remembers is 2000/01 when Rovers and Bolton were promoted, but he knew so much niche stuff from before then too.

Perhaps our ‘Expected Round’ was the quarters and we got a decent draw against Man City, so we were delighted to make the semis and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience showing off the Rovers colours.

Clearly they were nervous about the upcoming final.

Or just finally realising that they come form Bolton and can no longer escape that fact!!

Unlucky. Niall was phenomenal. Good effort through and a great distraction through the last few weeks.
