Bought season ticket at Rovers TV. Stockholm syndrome. Or that itch you can’t help but scratch. Only thing I know is I have immense respect for those going tonight. Whatever you choose just show your love for the club as you always do. Don’t let them beat you. COYB(fans)!!

I give up. Feel really bad for those who travelled.

Sammie looks frustraded. He’ll probably score soon.

That didn’t take long

Good to see Pickering back in the squad. I know he's not everyone's cup of tea but we usually do well with him in the team.

Ok....so after feeling totally deflated for a couple of weeks I'm anxiously looking forward to this one after Tuesdays heroic performance. Hope we can bring some of that energy and joy to todays game. Give those travelling today something to cheer about and make us proud again. I think we can still despise our "owners" despite rooting for our team. Give us a game of grit, determination, and willingness to play for the shirt and I'll be happy. Do that and we'll probably win. No need to get fancy about it - just give it your best. COYB!

This will be a «park the bus»-game isn’t it? Can’t see us holding out for long if that indeed is the tactic. I think some of the reason we did well in the cups under JDT was that we didn’t roll over no matter the opposition. Made for some proud moments to be honest. Now I think the focus will be on avoiding relegation and nothing boost confidence like a heavy loss no matter who you’re facing. I always were of the opinion that a good run in the cup would be good for both the squad and the fans, but feel most clubs these days sees them as a nuisance the higher up they are. Hope Eustace proves me wrong and goes for the juggular but won’t get my hopes up. Would be nice to have a good performance full of energy etc even if it should result in a loss. I’m guessing being a Rovers supporter these days means the bar for what we accept as ok is getting lower by the minute. What should be the absolute lowest bar at this club is «Arte et labore» like it was in the old days of Kenny, Souey and Hughes. Even in the cups. Give s our pride back!

Yawn! New strategy: bore the opposition to death and draw

A bit of pressure now. Better but not good.

So…who’s gonna come off the bench and change the game for us?

Those who decided to stay away? /s

So that was 45 + extra time of football and I just feel deflated. Told my girlfriend at 2-0 up that we only need to score 3 more to win. Thank god for beer! Now get your heads together and start playing and defending as a team. Those final 20 mins were awful….again. Show us you’re better than this. Stop trying to mimick our hapless owners on the pitch. Get your shit together and stop sulking.

Oh FFS! Please please please don’t lose this!

Preston score. Good goal to be honest.

Way ahead of you mate! 4 down…a lot to go:-D Happy birthday to us!

I think I might get that birthday present I was hoping for!

Looks like Fleck is off already. Another one made of glass. Not been impressed what little I’ve seen of him. Seems off pace.

Sammie you beauty!!!

So…I’m turning 50 today so could really do with a Rovers win as everything else has been perfect. Not sure if I should risk my good mood with Rovers but just can’t help myself. But a win would be a nice birthday present!

1-0….

Horror show. How have Big Club not scored?! Would be vivid if I were a fan. Not that being a Rover is better tonight but still. Give me 0-0 and I’m pleased.

Kinda makes you miss Pickering. For all his faults he’s mostly steady. Much like Pears. And a 0-0 draw would be a good result. A 1-0 a bloody miracle!

At this point I’ll happily take 0-0

Brum should be 1-0.
