2-1 to Portsmouth.

Very worried.

Just listened to the commentary and would have thought the players would be out to impress the new manager whoever it may be.

Just a bit of effort like fighting for every 50/50 etc but it just seemed like a totally half hearted lame display.

Perhaps the players know who the new manager is and want out?

I fear the worst for this season

We are gonna stuff the Geordies 3-1 I hope:)

I wonder what the odds are on us finally getting a penalty today?

Please god no.

Rudi Voller?

As for the times, looks like you'll have to pay. Sorry.

I ain't paying that Murdoch ****** a cent.

Please don't tell me he has a stake in this site

Perhaps there's a slight whiff of coruption in the move.

Very interesting article Scotty.

I hope Smithy is already on the case and can unearth some more information on all these little cartels that seem to be leeching from the game of football.

I did several pages up.

I went for Kevin Hird.

Your point?

philipl - Fergie Suter didn't move for a transfer fee- he just caught the train to Blackburn and said it was for "personal reasons". Unsurprisingly the Darwen contingent weren't too happy about this and the next game between the sides ended in a full-scale pitch invasion and riot by the crowd which had been triggered by on-field fighting by a Darwen player and, you guessed it, Fergie Suter.

Unless someone can give the time to make a similar case for other pre-war players they won't have a chance. Crompton is a legend but I don't have any spare time to do another appeal for a different player. An idea I had was to put a case forward for our first England international keeper, the cup-winning Herbie Arthur. As well as being a quality keeper he also created a legend. During a particularly storm-laden game at Turf Moor (it was about 1893 or around there) the players battled the elements. Matters got worse in the form of a guest, a snowstorm. After a while the Rovers players marched off the pitch refusing to play in such conditions. All except Arthur, alone in the Rovers goal against a full Burnley eleven. A Burnley player kicked off and passed to a colleague at which point Arthur succesfully appealed for offside. 'Herbie' then dawdled over the free kick for so long that the referee gave up and abandoned the game. Arthur must surely be the only Rovers keeper to play Burnley on his own; and keep a clean sheet!

There are some wonderful stories like this about Rovers if you can find the time to have a look in the library or just read some a history of the club. A few brain cells and a love of Rovers is all you need. Our club has a fine tradition, it'd be nice if more people cared enough to explore it.

Is this a true vote or is it a call to vote for Den and FLB'S favourite players?

Just curious

Thats another five years, if he survives that long, that the Geordies go without a trophy.

Its just what Fat Freddy deserves.

Bring back King Kenny with Shearer as player coach.

Stan Ternent.

Is this tongue in cheek?

Can you imagine the crap from Sam D if this was ever the case - Rovers picking up Dingle cast-offs etc etc

Of course.

I was going to suggest Lord Patel.

Gutted but hey thats football for you.

The judas has sold off the crown jewels and worse still has probably made Jan and Jim's year.

Stan Ternent.

Kevin Hird gets my vote.

I can't possibly vote for someone Ive never seen play and was from a totally different era of football.

Nice one Sam  ...   Good sniffing around to find the price of Yorke...  

£250K ain't that bad..  

So thats it then............ we obviously had to bung him £150,000 at ten to midnight to get him off the piggin payroll.

Money well spent too.

I'd have gone as far as a million at 1 second to midnight

About time too.

Good riddance.

ManU vs Everton

0-0 and Everton should have had at least 1 penalty..

Those cheating @#/?s! 

Agree with you on that, and why don't man U players get yellow cards.

And with 5 points from 4 games lets hope the noose is tightening around the RFW's neck.

Newcastle 0 Rovers 1

Sad but inevitable.

He's been a spent force for two years at least.

Did anyone else find the 4 mins of added time predicatable, I told the wife right towards full time, there is injury time yet, we are winning, down to 10 men so we should see the standard fergie 4.

Havent a clue what you are on about there mate.

As to what I said to my wife as they equalised has to go unsaid as its unprintable!

ferkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Super Brad...Soueys Blue and White Army...@@@@ off Jim,KSB and Jan...oh and Rover6.

We love you Rovers we do we love you Rovers we do.

Hang on in there lads..we can do it.
