Paper Lace - Billy Don't Be a Hero

Tracie - I Love You When You Sleep (written by Elvis Costello that one)

No wonder his legs have gone

The Beatles - Twist and Shout

Very good Ian. Nice reference to The Jam as well, for good measure!

A team letting shed loads in three games on the trot is probably quite rare. Another fun fact of the day - we also let 4 in at QPR....

Travis? Johnson?

The Chi-lites - Stoned Out of My Mind

Would you just stop it now ha ha ha

Uncle Jack showed his class there. I've heard a few people connected to Rovers - mainly fans to be fair - lambast Sven for his part in it. I take a different view. Yes he had signed a contract and we could have held him to it or sued him over it, but what was the point? And at least he had the balls to approach the club and say "I've changed my mind". I'm glad he is still grateful to Jack for allowing him to tear up that contract.

I certainly felt frustrated that we had let a 2 goal lead slip, but using phrases like 'chucked away' etc (which you have at least acknowledged as harsh now, so credit for that) doesn't really reflect what happened on Saturday. I'm sure most of us had that "FFS not again" feeling, but that's just football really, these things happen.

This is the bit where I - and it would appear many others - disagree with you though. Yes, over the past couple of seasons we have had a bad record when it comes to not seeing out games from that sort of position (off the top of my head; Brentford (last season), Preston, Birmingham and Wigan games spring to mind but I'm sure there have been more) but you have lazily lumped this Brentford result in with those other games when in reality it was nothing of the sort and we didn't actually 'chuck' anything away, regardless of how frustrating it was at the time for it to happen yet again. This felt different and isn't at all the same as saying "well, I would have accepted a point before the game therefore I am happy". We were pegged back by a worldie and a bad refereeing decision and therefore there is no blame attached to a Rovers player(s). I can't remember whether you tried to attribute blame to anyone for that first goal, but many people did, initially Walton but also one of the centre halves (Lenihan maybe?) copped it for playing the lad onside. In reality there was no blame attached - sometimes you just have to say "good goal", regroup and roll your sleeves up and carry on, which is what our players seemed to do. I can't really ask any more than that to be honest.

Joe Jackson - Is She Really Going Out With Him?

Well done for making the effort mate. I hope you are rewarded by travelling back down the M6 with a smug grin on your face.

While this is certainly true, it is true for every other team in this division as well and not something unique to Rovers.

Ben Harper - The Woman In You

Kirsty McColl - There's a Guy Works Down the Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis

Stevie Wonder - Isn't She Lovely?

The Jam - In the Street, Today

David Bowie - Life on Mars

Sly and the Family Stone - Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey

Ocean Colour Scene - I Told You So

Patti Jo - Make Me Believe In You

I think we'll have too much for Stoke. They can't even perform in Stoke on a cold, wet Wednesday evening in February, let alone in east Lancashire. 3-1 to Rovers, possibly after going behind. Arma, Downing, and one of the centre halves to notch.

The Temptations - Law of the Land
