  1. By this definition, a team would be a rival with everyone they play. We know this is not true. Some games simply mean more to admin, coaches, players & fans. And, you do know something about me; I said I was a Texan.
  2. A rivalry has to mean something special to both sides; if it doesn’t, it isn’t a rivalry. I am a Texan, & I grew up on Texas/Oklahoma. That IS a rivalry, both sides derive much pleasure/pain from it. my in-laws are Texas Tech fans, and as much as they think they have a rivalry with the University of Texas, they don’t. It’s just another game to we Longhorns. & all this being said, Rovers/Preston is a rivalry. I am a newcomer to Rovers fandom (since 2013), but 14 pages before the game even starts, says it means a little more than playing brum big club, Ipswich, QPR, etc.
  3. We’re stretched really thin, but 4 wins out of 5, I’m encouraged. Tomasson is doing well with the boys & pieces he’s been given. Sammie is a great addition to the squad. I liked it when we got him, & it didn’t take long to establish himself as a goal scorer, and a fan favorite. I still feel Sig’s will be a solid goal scorer for Rovers. COYB!
  4. 25 min with 10 men, I didn’t think the clean sheet would last this long
  5. He’s been solid today. No gripes from me
  6. Wahlstedt has been up to the challenge, but canaries will bag one sooner or later.
  7. Norwich are really a poor side, Wagner has his work cut out for him. Let’s see if these 4 subs work any magic for canaries
  8. Sig’s & Ennis, let’s go, lads!
  9. Rovers’ kiddie corps will have trouble keeping it at just 2-0 now.
  10. Every game, play the best 11. Can’t win them all, but sure can’t, if there is no attempt at it.
  11. I couldn’t watch today, but I saw we had 20 shots. How many of those by Sig’s & Sammie?
  12. Considering his player personnel is so limited, Tomasson has a solid 11. We need to expect point(s) today, Rovers, 2-1. Szmodics, Sig’s
  13. Three wins in a row- what would we have if we had a healthy team? I trust Tomasson to select the proper 11.
  14. Excellent, a win on the road is always a hard fight!
  15. No, unfortunately this is the longest streak I’ve had of not getting Rovers on ESPN+.
  16. No Pears, Gally, Barnes, Leonard, Moran & Hedges… We didn't get guys back after the break, & we lose Moran for a game or two. Defense really needs to step up. We might have to win games 1-0.
  17. Beginning this weekend, I can see Rovers start the long climb from the bottom half of the table. As long as Sammie & Sig’s stay healthy, I think we can count on seeing more goals scored.
  18. I love the four goals, but with our recent miseries, I love the clean sheet better.
  19. Well, Texas gave Bama their first loss? I don’t care what Aggies do today
