Just to keep the thread off topic, unless you are a diehard supporter and feel the pain and the elation of say a 4-3 win over United than basically football today is absolutely rubbish, for want of a swear word. I don't blame any stay aways one bit.

So he was just bombed out of the 16 altogether for being crap?

Our defensive 4-5-1 has been replaced by a more attractive 4-4-2. When the team is not 'up for it' or the creative players are having a bad game, then this, coupled with the lack of bite and defensive aggression that 4-5-1 gave us means defeat, particulary against a team like Everton. To win these games, we have to play well. Simple but true.

Only saw the highlights, but appeared to be involved in Boltons most dangerous moves?

Couldn't help notice the influence Matt Jansen had for Bolton at Highbury yesterday...

We have taken two steps forward this season, now we have taken one step back. Nett result, we have move forward. Three points at home to a woeful Sunderland on Wednesday should see us top seven. Not too shabby. Went to WBA and EVerton and the amount of saves made by all three goalies we have faced is the most worrying aspect though.

All roads head to Wigan this lunch time as Rovers,Everton,Wigan and Liverpool fans all travel to the same area at the same time.

I think there will be around 1,549 in the away end. You heard it here first. Best Wishes, Pleasure.

Freddy Shepherd would do worse than get Hearts Supremeo Jordonav to pick his team for him for a while, he's got Hearts to second in their league...

I was working on Deansgate in Bolton at the time, and couldn't get any decent reception on the shop radio. So I had to keep running out of the shop, and looking into the shop next doors window, which was Granada TV Rentals I think, and look at the video printer or teleprinter as it may be still been then. What a long season that felt like, long trips to Cambridge (twice), and what felt like around a dozen defeats in a row. In a subsequent edition of When Saturday Comes, a Plymouth fan had written a letter in wondering why thousands of Rovers fans referred to the manager as Kinky Knees!

Missing for Everton on Saturday will be Injured Suspended.

I went in the SWI/Rovers Store this lunchtime, and there was row after row of Rovers kits and clothing. And most of it was vastly marked down, EG The current Lonsdale-Lonsdale Home shirts are Half Price, in all sizes. Plus BRFC branded leisure wear, and gifts and novelty items too. Even the HSA long sleeve Yellow away kit was there at £13.49!!!

Bought my ticket this lunch time Thurday and plenty room left. Was £27 but not marked as being restricted view either. The lady at the TO says that they sell qiute a lot of the day of the match for local games these days.

The attitude of both the stewards and the majority of Everton fans is appalling. Aggressive and poor losers. Much prefer the Red half of Merseyside.

'Sa bit harsh.

Like The Horden Rake. Every match is on there.

I've already broken 'em Bob. Maybe eBay can replace them for me?

Axe Doubtful for Weekend? JJ Poss Start?

When it was was still Rovers owned, I bought some Rovers mittens in July , £2 in the sale.

Nice touch for WBA to provide an abuse gate in the bar below the stand-allows the singing to be heard right down the botom of the hill. And Mr Shrek, your mask was too small for your face.

On the evidence of the last four games, Tugays replacement is now looking like the next challenge for MH. Take the Turk out and we have nowt in the middle capable of running a game, witness WBA Saturday. Certainley not Mr Reid.

aww come on USABlue. Thats just falling into the trap, come on dude! Hows the Superball doing? I reckon the Cheesemumblers are certs for another pennant.
