Fisher looks far better than v Fleetwood. He catches shots instead of palming them. He's caught a couple of crosses too. I wish they'd stop doing replays for everything. That's how we missed their goal.I

This fella will never change. And some people wonder why we want another manager.

Thanks Perth Blue ? I'm in.

Got an email from Rovers about tonights game. I clicked on the link to register. I can do anything but register. It tells me to put in my user name and the password I selected etc. There are loads of questions and answers but none about registration. I typed "registration" into the help box. Answer was did not recognise the word. Another shockingly awful web site put together by goons.

Are you on the right thread? I presume you mean spraying it on the weeds At Ewood.

Cannot see he has signed for anyone yet.

Why do British football commentators call Seville by their Spanish name? They say "Say-vee-ya" Why don't they call them by the English term, "Seville"? If they must use the correct local name for the foreign teams then should be Bayern München. And I bet the cannot pronounce properly "Paris" in Paris Saint Germain. Anyhow, it should be "Say-bee-ya" for Seville.

Bayern's manager is Herr Flick............straight from "Allo allo". He's done well, though.

Spoiler......... I see it's half time and this forecasted goalfest hasn't produced one yet.

And a young Damian Duff, Damian Johnson and a Tiny Taylor too.

Well I've just watched the game up to after our 4th goal. I saw the rest of the game in real time. Rovers defence in the 2nd half were atrocious. They played the ball back so many times that Eastham must have had more on-the-ball minutes than any other player. Contrast that to Fisher in the 1st half who had so little to do. He wasn't at fault for their goal. Alright he made one awful mistake with a misplaced pass and Davenport had to clear off the line, but not Fisher's fault. All Rovers players were OKish. It's a pre-season runabout. Players I noticed having a particularly good game were Armstrong, Buckley, Chapman and Dolan. Good to see a nice Rovers shirt without that horrible Bet 10 logo.

A time machine could take you back to before world war 1 to see Crompton's Rovers winning the title with Eddie Latheron and Danny Shea. Or to see Harry Healless, Roscamp, Puddefoot etc. I would love to have seen Ted Harper and some of the goals he scored. But the games I would love to re-watch ( I saw them as an 11 year old) is Rovers 9 Middlesbrough 0 in 1954 I think and Rovers 8 Bristol Rovers 3 when Briggs scored his 7.

I bet the hand driers in the gents toilets on the Riverside are still the same useless ones. Venky Rovers don't give a toss about the fans.

That, Stuart, is a brilliant suggestion.

Keith Andrews wasn't awful. He was brought in two divisions up by a manager who was already disliked. Keith tried his best for us but he didn't have the quality for the Prem. I'll never knock a player who gives his best for the Rovers even in spite of fans cat-calling him. You cannot have him in the same pigeon hole as Murphy, Orr, Best and Duffy.

Don't give up hope. In the late 80s/early 90s we saw our best player, Simon Barker, sold to first division QPR (ffs) in order to balance the books. Financially Rovers were knackered and then Jack came along and waved a magic wand. We never know what the future holds for us so don't give up hope.

I wonder how Dave Whelan is feeling about all this. After all he was the one who invested in a little non-league club existing in the heavy shade of a gigantic Rugby League club.

So Özil donated 23% of his weekly wage to charity. If you earned £1000 per week and donated £230 that's quite a hefty sum. However after Özil's donation he was left with £268,667.......still a small fortune to the likes of us. Puts things into perspective a bit.

Unlike Harrogate Town whose manager beats Gareth Ainsworth by more than three years.

One of my favourite Coleman balls is when he is commenting on a Lynford Christie race, "as he came round the last bend he opened his legs and showed us his class."

Can you trust Venkys to appoint one? I can't.

I'm not comparing Mowbray to Sam. We could get a far worse manager than Mowbray if we get rid is what I'm warning about.

Be careful what you wish for. A lot of us (stupidly) wanted Big Sam out because of the dire football.

The Lancashire derby he was referring to was Bolton Wanderers ffs. The idiot hadn't a clue about Rovers' real rivals. Souness discovered the true feelings of the real East Lancs derby and put them on a par with the old firm games and the Turkish ones. A bit harsh to include Vince Grella here. His body couldn't take the hammering and he had to retire early from football in Australia.
