I agree... i don't like this feeling.....

can we possibly link 3 passes together???

Here ya go:

No, Smart Guy!

Home3/Away3

I would add my 2 pence worth: Not to whinge about the crappy sponsor, but

that we PLEASE reduce the size of the advert as its present proportions makes

us look a bit Fizzy Pop league.

And we are decidedly not Fizzy Pop !

Would be very nice to grab the full 3 points, nevermind nice,

downright important. I think Rovers will make a late claim for the

full points.

Rovers 2 - Addicks 1

Benny 25'- who cares?

Brad 88' (sound familiar?)

C'mon Rovers, we need to make this game in-hand

count for 3 & jump to 12th.

As the Dude and other posters have stated: 'need three points desperately'.

After the dreadful feeling of the last 45 minutes vs. Spuds, I was impressed by the way we handled ourselves at Feyenoord,hopefully the extended break will heal all niggling knocks & the lads can

put Fulham in their place. This fixture (or is it the Cottage match) is usually chockful of scoring--

with our back four, i'd not bet against that.

Noting that we are on december's doorstep: When's the admiral return?

I miss that warm, secure feeling Ryan provided something awful.

cheers

Hmmm....

How will you be able to celebrate Benni's hat-trick, then? :ph34r:

Lee, as you'll be in London, I was going to recommend taking a slight detour

and heading over to Loftus Road,

but that's Saturday. sorry, no ideas.

Go to Upton, then. Just yell very loudly.

ok ok ok ok .... I get it now, the penny has finally dropped.

WHam 5- Rovers 2

(Reluctantly, mind you)

Ugh, Bryan !! NOT !

Upton Park is historically a sad place for us. While we are rarely successful there, an abundance of goals is usually on offer. Hopefully, our new - found security in the back 4 will clamp down on the east enders and deny them the lifeline they desperately need. I love Tevez and Mascherano and they'll undoubtly come good--but not at the expense of our Rovers.

We need these away wins -- they make a huge difference at season's end.

C'mon Blues !!

I don't think Hughes attended Stanford, but Ryan Nelsen graduated in 2001 with a degree in political science.

Go Cardinal!

You are correct Drakefrye... i bumbled both of my quote on that post...I've got NY Mets on the brain this week.

Mark Hughes does generally seem bright, but I saw a brief clip of him on some interview where he was asked a very basic mathematical question (I can't remember what it was, but it was extremely basic, something like 18 plus 8), and he cocked it up completely.

He did attend Stanford Univ. in Palo Alto, Ca. which is an outstanding institution. I'm not

certain if he's a graduate due to his footballing. It still speaks very highly of him.

I've heard that Keown is quite smart... I think he at least manages to speak French fluently and was almost like Wenger's interpreter when he first came to the UK to help him settle in.

It's his hands that hold him back.

Cmon you Rovers !

I am somewhat surprised that the club did not introduce a

Euro kit. I have our last one (Red bordered Kappas) & reckon it to be

the nicest Rovers' kit home/away since the McEwans' kits.

A nice Black/Red halved kit would be very sharp & quite intimidating

to trot it our at feyenoord.

C'mon ROVERS !

Top Post, 1864.

I wish I could make a trip to support Rovers like that... must be brillant, i'm sure

So, the upshot here is:

Stephane in for Lorenzo?

Whats' the problem fellas? Zero impact.

I'll fall in line w/ that sentiment! Kudos to the Cataluyans... but they can afford to be altruistic, no?

Now, if they would stop harassing Javy Savi and let him play w/ Etoo....

Colin's graphic makes for a depressing read.

I knew we're notoriously slow out of the gate--but

that really drives it home. I still want to look

at this optimistically as we cannot afford

a slow start this August.

Pompey 1 - who cares

Rovers 2 - MGP & Shefki (last 9 minutes to quiet his legions of doubters)

Go on Rovers, get into 'em.

I'd go along w/ that, Nellie then Savage....

Say what you want, Lily is a very important element in the

engine room & is Sparky's standard bearer out on the pitch.

Well done Reidy !

Congratulations on the armband. Go 'git those Dutch barstewards!

Rovers chalk up another International Capt?

Ughh ! That horrible Ulhsport kit! The one that dropped us to the Championship

or whatever it was called then!

Strangest thing:

This past weekend, I pulled my 2004-05 Kappa away kit (Mustard Yellow) from

the dryer (granted it was in there in error, damned missus) and the HSA

panel was cracked. I pulled the fabric apart and the panel came off relatively

easy. But what surprised me was that there was another HSA decal beneath it,

in fabulous shape....

is this the norm? or did I win the lottery?

Also I've just run into this site, pretty funny. enjoy.

Ugly kit site

Also.... what's up with this crap?

Thumbholes????

Glad you didn't get into a detailed account of your night, DBirch.

These past few weeks i'd just gotten into Love (their first 4 album/original lineup) and have really been grooving out to it, but this past Friday i'd come to learn that Arthur Lee has past away. That on the heels of

Syd Barrett..... it's very sad, gentlemen, two genius' go within a span of 3 weeks.

very sad day.

Good shout, Flopsy!

i'll nominate 'Send in the Clowns'..... Judy Collins

(Like I do every year in this thread).

dont' laugh Drake,

My missus threatened me w/ the very same treatment if I went to Germany

for the footy matches this summer !

Poor Poor Youri! :ph34r:
