Palace 1-2 Rovers. Johnson Johannson Pedersen Friedel Neill NEJ Todd Gray Emo Ferguson Tugs Reid/MGP Dickov Gallagher

Center back and striker the main two. Also, a Defensive Midfielder.

Poor performance Friedel- 8 Neill- 6 Todd - 9 Short- 7 Johannson- 6 Emerton- 6 Ferguson- 7 Tugay- 7 Reid- 7 Dickov- 6 Gallagher- 6 Subs: Matteo- 7 Bothroyd- 6 Thompson- 7

Rovers 2-1 Spurs Bothroyd (82 ), Keane ( 84) Dickov (91) Friedel Neill Todd Short Nissa Emo Fergie Tugay/Thommo Reid Dickov Gally Subs: Encks Matteo Pedersen Tugay/Thommo Bothroyd Is Reid suspended?

Heard Pedersen could play upfront................

One problem there, Maradona Jr is a striker.

Nah t'was Michael Dubbery.

In the end, happy with a draw, but the radio said Rovers were all over City. PENALTY!!!!!!!!!!! The ref is a hero. Clattenburg, was it?

Sad news Why did whoever sacked him sack him?

Rangers. Amoruso, Ostenstad, Berg, Souness, Tugay, Amoruso and Ferguson have also moved one direction or the other, with Michael Mols, Peter Lovenkrands being linked with a move to us. Agree about Utd as well.

Corrado Grabbi Kaba Diawara Dino Baggio Ashley Ward Nathan Blake Darren Peakcock Kevin Davies Tore Pedersen Per Pedersen Dario Marcolin Egil Ostenstad Richard Witschge ( In no particular order, though it could be......)

Heard Dickov was excellent. Bothroyd let us down, though. But why are people saying he should go back to Italy? Anyone can make mistakes.

Im going for 2-1 Rovers. If we play with the determination and fight we did against Liverpool, then we're bound to come away with something. Bothroyd and Dickov for Rovers, Huckerby for them.

Friedel- 6 Neill - 4 Johannsson - 8 Short - 6 Mcevely - 7 Emerton - 8 Ferguson - 8 Tugay - 6 Reid - 7 Dickov - 7 Bothroyd - 8 As for the match, excellent performance. But why on earth did friedel not come out for the second goal? He'd have got it before Baros touched it, if he'd of come out.

Good finish as well!

Every time we play against a team who's striker hasn't scored for a while, he scores at least twice against us. Gudjohnsen, Phillips etc. Next on the list could be Djibril Cisse....

Or does 92er mean the last first team match that he played 90 minutes and survived, without picking up an injury?

Also, a 2-2 stunner at Ewood right at the very start of 2002/2003. The time when Grabbi scored that header........

Friedel Neill Todd Short Gray Emo Fergie Flitcroft Jansen Dickov Bothroyd I'll go for a 1-1 Bothroyd ( 22 ) Luis Garcia ( 71 )

Before we play him Tony Diamond, he needs to adjust to the pace of the English game. Then the ' next Beckham ' speech by Souness might be more realistic. Though I hope he isn't the new Beckham for many reasons.............

Seen as we are struggling to find goals, why not give Gally a go up front?

Huh? WHERE IS DICKOV?????????

Chelsea 2-2 Rovers Chelsea open the scoring after 6 minutes and 2 seconds, Eidur gudjonsson heading home from a Tiago cross. Just 23 minutes and 27 seconds later, Mateja Kezman fires home after a scrambel in the rovers box. However with only seconds until the half time whistle, Paul Dickov slams the ball home from close range. Rovers bring on Jay Bothroyd to help search for an equaliser, and after 92 minutes Bothroyd latches on to a Emerton cross to sidefoot past Petr cech. Hughes and all the staff run on the pitch in celebration. Of course, chelsea complain.
