That was actually a great day. I went to Ashton Gate for that one, and a few defeats since. I'll be there tomorrow but in a home fans section. Trying to rehearse my poker face for if Rovers score. Unsure if this is a skill I will actually require...!

Same was with home fans couple years ago when we got battered, as I get free tickets via work. Head in hands that one

They weren't even singing til 4 nil up...

Worst thing is I'm also a Bristol rovers fan so hate going to the stadium full stop!

Not expecting anything on a Tuesday night at Ashton Gate. Taking anything away from here would be a great result and another very welcome surprise.

Similar opinions to others in that I'm thinking absolutely no chance given a mid-week away match.

Having said that, a result here puts us into a decent position heading into the 2nd quarter of the season....fixtures after this until Christmas look favourable, with 6 of 9 at home and 6 of 9 against bottom half teams.

Although we do have 7 games in 23 days - that Ipswich cancellation is frustrating on so many levels, not least as they'll probably hit form now.

Wednesday, Oxford and Pompey in December could make for a happy or disastrous Christmas!

Just looking at those fixtures and I just had a thought that summed up where we are right now, Wrexham away, a club that hasn't been in the 2nd tier for 43 years, will very likely go into that game having vastly more Championship experience in their starting XI than we do. I have no idea what the actual total minutes in the Championship per side will be, but I would wager they will be miles ahead of us in that respect, sobering thought for the day!

And yet, we will still beat them.

I bet we don't.

That will be 14 consecutive away defeats by promoted sides.
