No Sinama in the squad. Has to have been injured?!? Changes see Todd at central defence, Zurab at right back, Lucas at left back, Emo at right wing, and Bentley up front. Dickov on the bench, whilst Gray not in the 16. Come on Rovers.

Lots depend on tonights fixture. A 6 point lead for Newcastle and Wigan should be comfortable enough and 8 over Bolton, albeit with an extra game played would probably mean that they have to win all 4 remaining games. Come on Rovers.

2 wins is do-able Id say and that would mean that Newcastle would have to win their last three games just to tie with us. But stranger fall aparts have happened.

Like I said, I think 1 point wouldnt be the worst result, but 3 would be great. We cant keep on dropping points. Luckily the sides around us are just as inconsistent as we are. Im beginning to feel scared about losing 6th place right at the death. That would be a massive blow.

With Newcastle and possibly Bolton breathing down our necks, we have to get something out of this game. 1 point wouldnt be the worst result, but we could use a jump start to the end of the season.

Disappointing. End of Champs League fantasy. But I think the lads better wake up before Wednesday cause we are truly involved in a two or three way tangle for the UEFA Cup spot FOR SURE. I think another 6 points will surely get it, and I think the Wednesday night game is massive and far from guaranteed for us. I hope we dont throw away this seasons hard work. The team needs a few players for sure. Id say a left back for certain, a striker and a midfielder, possibly a winger.

7 points should be enough and I can see that coming our way.

I think Newcastle and West Ham are in it for sure now.

MGP has been very disappointing for about a month now. Defeat by the odd goal me thinks.

Gotta be Bellers, although Nelsen and Reid both have had great seasons, especially Reid's second half of the season.

6 points but potentially 3 if Bolton win their game in hand. Bolton should turn around their bad form any day now. But lets hope we get a couple more wins on the board to cement our top 6 position.

UEFA Cup football is GREAT when you see that we have been battling relegations for two seasons. Ive been following Rovers since 92 and I would be happy with it and if you told me at the start of the season we would finish 6th, I would have taken it.

I think Spurs will take a point at Arsenal and that game will be the difference between 4th and 5th.

When was the last game Amo played for us

We are definitely underdogs as we need two teams to slip up for us to finish 4th. Cant see it happening. After todays games, Im fairly certain that Spurs will scrape through to 4th place and Arsenals CL run-in will count against them. Lets just make sure of a UEFA Cup place and everyone can be happy.

Spurs will win more games and theyll be difficult to beat too. I can see draws at Everton and Arsenal and win against WHU. They are my odds on favorites for 4th. But maybe Arsenal will just screw them out of it by winning the CL.

Bellamy has even proven me wrong. I didnt think he was an out and out goalscorer but maybe the environment was never right for him for score 15 goals before with Shearer around as number 1 man. He has easily tripled his value this season in my book.

roverich, spot on!

I agree with you jim. Spot on.

Too pessimistic krislu. Its a sign of a good team that can grind out draws and wins when defeat is what they deserve. We dig deep and came back against Wigan, and today our keeper kept us in it. I agree we look under the weather lately, so to speak. But hopefully against Liverpool we can show a decent account of ourselves.

Actually Reid and Savage have worked this season. I can think of numerous occassions, especially away from home. Trust me, if Toogs had played in the middle, we would have been worse off today. But I agree, I want a few changes but with Pongolle not in contention Dicky will probably stay up front. Ahhh... Id keep MGP in cause he is a big game player and we could use his set plays. Bentley has been way better than MGP during the last few games though. Also greggyk, I dont think he has said we deserved to win but rather we could have won or should have won.

Lets just give it our all, and come what may. I just want to see better performances than the last two games, especially better than the last game against Wigan.

Pongolle cant play right? I cant understand why he hasnt played a minute of the last two games, especially with him out of the Pool game. Dickov has been awful.

Tugay, if we get only 5 points from the next three games, then we are definitely out of it! 10 points out of the last 15 and Id be happy.

I think our 4th place hopes are gone now, although in the games Spurs play Arsenal and Bolton, there are points to be lost, so you never konw, but with 4 points, we are effectively 2 wins away from them. How sweet if Spurs finish 4th, Arsenal should win the CL!
