I thought we did hammer them second half. The scoreline doesn't reflect that, but Kirkland was superb - and needed to be. It could have been 4 or 5.

how much was it in the riverside today SG? It's not all down to prices. Although the number of tickets having to be bought this season, is going to tax even the most ardent fan.

Well it was £15 against Salzburg, - how much was it in the riverside today Abbey?

Subtle Bob. Your work is appreciated, thanks. Hopefully someone from the lancs morning telegraph reads this, there should be a contract in the offing.

Rovers 1-1 Wigwam.

OO Err Ozz. :ph34r: Put it right now.

No preview in yet folks, so we can just go ahead with the post, errr pre - match chat on this thread.

I wasn't impressed with red bull. I thought the coaching and tactical side of their team was excellent - the influence of Trapattoni was evident there. Their movement and passing was really good. What they didn't have was the players of quality to make that extra step up in class. Their players weren't good enough to fully embrace what they were trying to do.

OK according to this.

Not necessarily. 5 teams in a group means one side wont play on each date.

Rovers team confirmed: Friedel, Emerton, Ooijer, Khizanishvili, Neill ©, Bentley, Tugay, Savage, Pedersen, Nonda, McCarthy. Sub: Brown (GK), Mokoena, Jeffers, Gallagher, McEveley, Peter, Gray.

Thanks both.

So away goals count double after 90 mins? Just to be sure we're on the same wavelength.

C'mon guys, it's important. What do I do at 9:30 when it's finished 1-1?

Anyone know?

AArrgghhh, does this man know what he's saying?

Anyone know if away goals count double after 90 mins, or after ET?

You're falling out about an attendance at a game that hasn't taken place yet. Season ticket holders miss league games, why is it a problem tonight?

Rovers official site If Giovanni Trapattoni rates Savage, will that change anyone's mind?

"GIOVANNI Trapattoni insists that FC Red Bull Salzburg are still in with a great chance of landing a place in the group stages of the UEFA Cup. But the highly-successful Italian coach, who praised Mark Hughes and picked out Robbie Savage as a player he strongly admires, accepts that his team face a "very difficult" task at Ewood Park tonight." Worth bringing this topic back up, after the remarks of no less than Giovanni Trapattoni. Rovers official site

That's not nice Jan, that's brilliant. I didn't hear any other manager say they weren't interested in European football - they know that at the end of the day, the whole reason for existing, is to win football matches.

Early team news I certainly have the impression that there's a lot more interest in this European tie, than any previous tie. Including the Champs league. I thought that after the first leg in Salzburg. The interest on this site was higher than ever before, but I suppose some of that was down to the fact that it wasn't on TV. and the reason? Souness, of course.

I ran Norton for three or four years - it came free with the computer. problem was that almost immediately it was out of date and not covering all viruses. I would have had to pay to keep up to date. So I switched to AVG free edition and have been using it ever since. It picked up a virus that Norton had missed immediately and has been running quietly in the background for the last year or so. It updates every night free of charge and I've had no problems with viruses or anything else. Give it a go Colin, I'm sure you'll like it. Dead easy to install and use.

The thing is Jan, that even though rovers prices are cheap by comparison to other clubs - it is still expensive for most people. It's no use saying to people -well that's the price, tough ****. The club know it's too expensive.

Brough 3 - 1 Rovers
