The shove on Dickov was a clear penalty - the scum's penalty was awarded for far less contact - is time for Mr Indigestion pill to be demoted again?

Great result and good to see Kuqi's dive at last.

I agree with Philipl - West Brom has a very porous defence - Bellamy should have a field day if he can get service, I assume Reid will replace the suspended Lilly with Tugay to supply the passes for Bellamy to score 2 / Bentley to get on the sheet.

3-0 to the blues.

Would be absolutely delighted with a 0-0 bore draw, Rovers can play 4-5-1 all afternoon for me if they steal a point.

3 of us are going - £16 is a very fair price, surely it is better to give the club the money rather than seeing the Manchester Bucaneers on Saturday for the princely sum of £64.

Teletext are reporting what appears to be a full first team squad, no Matteo due to a fractured ankle.

Score - 4-1 to Rovers

Bothroyd has just scored for Charlton !!

3-1 Rovers - hope Sparky plays 4-4-2 with Bellamy / Kuqi being too much for Bramble and Boumsong to deal with, the Spanish reject is bound to score, Bellamy / Kuqi and Reid, P45 in the post on Monday morning to Mr Souness.

2-2 , Bellamy / Reid, Spit the dog and Pie boy for the Trotters, red card for Nolan after taking out Savage. Not going to the Breezeblock - I will buy tickets for the Huddersfield game instead.

Baros will presumably be starting, 2-1 to the Villans I am afraid. Mr Lawrenson likewise predicts a win for them. Baros / Angel and Kuqi to get off the mark.

despite Villa having solarno straight redded (won't be playing us on Saturday then)

I thought red card suspensions came into effect on the 7th day after the dismissal - no doubt members on here will correct me if I am wrong.

I wonder if Flitty may come in for Tugay to look after Davids, I think Hughes will stick with 4-5-1. Sorry but I can't see spuds not scoring so I will go for 1-1 , Kuqi and Mido. Well done to Spurs fans - 3K plus mid week to East Lancs - great support..

I agree - a return to 4-5-1 with Kuqi leading the line, the Axe to be in front of the back 4, 2-0 to Rovers along as Boa Morte can be subdued.

Summer optimism rapidly evaporated in a cloud of bubbles - a reality check now very necessary. The second half sounded dire - Rovers yet again press the self destruct button and another red card - could be a very long season on this evidence.

I would settle for 1-1 - Rovers managed to loose at Wham when nobody else had all season, their first home game back in the premiership; Sheringham and Kuqi to score.

My first match was the final game in 98 - 99 season when I dare to admit that we got tickets to see the scum match from a member of the stretcher bearer party - junior quack came along, thought the scum were exactly that and despite Rovers going down we were hooked!!

I am personally disappointed with this transfer - I hope that it does not come back to haunt Rovers in the next few years; Hughesy knows more about strikers in his little toe nail than I do but I do think Jonathon has been ejected a little too rapidly. I just wonder if this could be a pivotal moment in his time as Rovers manger, if he finds another 2 strikers in the way he found the admiral and the axe then we will be very complementary on Sparky's ability to go goldmining. If we are left with Dickov & Cole, will this be the first sign that Sparky can't hack it? - time will tell.

Into fantasy mode - what about a front line of Benni / Bellamy - that would make me renew the season tickets immediately!

Really enjoyable night out, good to see Shearer responding to the crowd and what a fantastic reception for TP at the end.

A DVD of the night will be available shortly.

2-0 to Spuds, still should be a good day out - lots of balloons / inflatables and will Jordans' blow up girl be making an appearance?

1 - 2 to Brum FT, damn.

Heskey scored 2-1 oh no !!

The axe has been booked for trying to remove Pennant's tag.

1 - 0 STEAD !!!!!!! header from Emreton cross

What a shock - another defeat predicted by Lawro, personally I hope Savage does not play and we stuff them 3-0 to consolidate a mid table place - would love to hear Bruce whinging about BRFC on MOTD !!

1- 0 to the Baggies, their very own Horseface to score, Rovers looked weary and they will really be up for the points. Sorry.

On MOTD both SWP and Nelsens pull on Sibierski appeared to be penalties - oh well, lady luck is smiling !

1-1 draw for me - SWP and Stead to finally score at Ewood.

2-1 to Rovers, dubious Johnson penalty and then Stead / Reid bag the pints for the blues.
