When Dalglish came to be our manager no-one would've expected that. I can't see Becks coming but stranger things have happened! Although I think that Hughse has been taken out of context to make a story. Eg when Strachen said 'most clubs in the world would be interested (in Beckham' the next day it was all over the papers that he was wanted by Celtic.

Hope you get a ticket, but... For the rest of us - how good is the atmosphere going to be with 2500 Rovers fans there!! CAN'T WAIT!!

I tried to find the topic which had debate from Poll taking centre stage in out defeat at Old Trafford in the Carling Cup semi-final, but couldn't. However, yet again, the 'Thing from Tring' has stolen the limelight in 2 matches recently - funnily enough featuring the top teams in the league (again). I think Poll should be relegated to the Championship to ref there as he has consitently shown that he gets too involved with WHO he's reffing, instead of just applying the letter of the law.

Everyone who is staying in Amsterdam, Are people planning to stay around A'dam on the Thurs til time for the match, or make a day of it in Rotterdam?

I rang on Monday and they confirmed our tickets were being processed and to expect the cash out late this week/early next

Good that Utd lost tonight - bad for Rovers on saturday, we may be on the end of a backlash. Although Utd must be more scared considering Rovers are due a backlash after 3 league defeats!!

What happened to Gally vs Villa - was he on the bench? I think he deserves a run in the side, maybe as support for benni.

It wasn't a great turnout, i can't understand why people don't get excited about watching Rovers in Europe. For me and my mates these are the most exciting games this season. If we're not in Europe for another 5/10 years then I'd like to be able to say that I was there when we were beating the likes of Salzburg, Basle and more hopefully. Imagine the amazing atmoshere if we had a full 30,000 at Ewood.

Agree with bp, I always think that when Gally comes on he looks like a class player, he looks to create changes for himself and others. I think when we are playing flat (in most 1st halves recently) he would make a positive difference and bridge the midfield/attack.

Tugay should be our captain (when Nelson's not in the team) He obviously cares more for the club than Neill. Did anyone else see him jib out of a few tackles last night?

Great result, although couldve been different if Brad hadn't made some world class saves in 1st half. Best players for me: Tugay, Zurab, Ooijer, Brad MGP was good in last 20 but 1st half I still think Peter would've been betterl Lets hope we take some confidence to Villa on Sunday

Everyone's getting a bit giddy on here. Save it for A'dam.

To be fair to the drummers, since the 'Get rid of the drummer' thread came about they haven't been too bad.

I think its on Eurosport (UK), I checked on Sky listings last night. Although I am going to the match

I do think that we should move the camera's over to the Riverside it will look so much better on Tv

The Sky coverage of Rovers is rubbish, they just don't know anything about our team any more: - It was suggested Tugay should take penaties. - They didn't mention Bentley's goalscoring/ good form at all. - They said that Benny and Roberts were a new partnership - what happend to the start of the season?? I'd rather watch the fanzone commentary

Yes, he probably would, in the case of the other Mihajovic he was called a 'gypsy' by Viera after calling him a monkey. They both got told off I think.

Since the police have recommended that everyone stay in Amsterdam, do you think there will be special pre/post match trains laid on to get everyone back on the night? I think someone a while ago said that the last scheduled train was only 30mins or something after full time. Plus there will be about a thousand people, could be a good laugh if/WHEN we win.

I think that Sav and Bentley should be able to shake off their injuries from last night. As already said, hopefully we'll play right from the start this time, against City and Wigan we just didn't start playing til 2nd half. I think Bolton will punish us more if that happens again. My feeling is that Big Sam will deploy his spoiler tactics again and reduce the game to scraps (like past few seasons) hopefully we'll rise above it and win. My bet Rovers 1 - 0 MGP with the goal

Has anyone else who has sent the forms in enclosed a cheque / other payment? I've sent ours in with a cheque, hopefully this will be OK

Palace fans - leave off the Big Guy and give him a chance to play well when the whole team's playing well. Go on Shefki lad!

Sky news says it was Mijailovic who said something to Benni. Its not the same guy who used to play for Lazio - cheers T1MJ!!

Was anyone else listening to Radio Lancs Fm coverage - it took me a minute to realise that Bentley had scored the winner?! The guy didn't make it clear at all - i would've been going crazy if I was commentating!!! regardless - class win for the blues whatever the performance

A Man City fan told me at work today that they were being charged £38 by Rovers initially which reduced to £32 I think, but that was the reason why they didn;t come to Ewood, the opposite happened with the Bolton fans who all seem to be happy at the price cut and are making the trip.
