They did. However, Hanley was taken off in that game, and last night, although it was a rotated team that Norwich played against Stevenage, both Duffy and Hanley were only on the bench.. So I do wonder if that slow and old backline will feature against Rovers. That being said, the young and not so slow backline conceded 3 goals against Stevenage.

Thought I would save you a wasted trip 🙂

That was yesterday morning, next home game is U18s v Rangers on the 19th according to that

Anyone who mentioned Doak at Liverpool, he can safely be ruled out. Liverpool considering loans and permanent deals, but Leicester and Southampton are on the case https://tribuna.com/en/news/liverpoolfc-2024-08-13-liverpool-to-consider-permanent-bids-for-ben-doak-sky-sports/

Captain Bucko is a different animal!

Would also like to congratulate you on being much nicer and more sensible than any of the Wrexham fans that came here before our game with them in the FA Cup. And also for coming back after the game (unlike them) Good luck for the rest of the season

yes

I was very close

Don't agree re Dolan, think he will do well in a central position (if/when Szmodics leaves) WHAT A FUCKING GOAL!!!!!!!!

Vale Ohasi Siggy Gueye

Just think, the sale of Gally (3 goals last season) more than covered the purchases (and likely also the wages) of Gueye & Ohashi (3 goals in 2 games so far)

Pleased to see Duru, and see the sense in giving Fadz minutes, surprised that neither Gueye or Vale are on also

There were several stories when Eustace joined of being pragmatic to start with, and then after a full pre season, instilling a more expansive game, He did it at Birmingham, Kidderminster were the Barcelona/Brazil (cant remember which) of non league

Hatter is a Stockport fan, has been on here a few days, seems a good egg

Negotiating tactic should be that the price goes up every time he scores

I'm just lazy, I buy the Rovers subscription season ticket, but watch the game on sky if its on there

What is the sky issue? I am watching it on sky + (now tv ap rather than a sky sports subscription but cant imagine that makes much difference) and its fine

7-1, Sammie hat trick, and all of the front 4 to score

Buckley was captain of the 2nd string 11 for much of pre season, surprised me then, even more so tonight

I cant say anything for the commentary teams of any other clubs, and having read your comment, I would never want to 😉 Edit - This isn't a gotcha, but why are you listening to every other clubs commentary rather than Rovers own one if you think our commentary are in the top 3? Genuinely interested 🙂

He was, but he was 21/22 when we had him and much closer to the finished article than Brathwaite (who was 18 when we had him) and Harwood Bellis (who was 19 when we had him)

Think we might have been spoilt by a certain Adam Wharton dictating games in his teens

Yes, I am not a fan of the commentary on Rovers TV. They use tired clichés, do not seem to add any insight, and once had a 20 minute discussion about Jaffa cakes in the middle of a game

Does it work for Carabao cup games though? I thought it was League matches only? Edit - as the previous poster was asking for tonight's game specifically Do agree that a subscription to Rovers TV is great value though, despite the commentary team

Not that young, he is 21 in 2 months. Or has my mind just been warped by Rovers playing numerous teenagers over the past few years?
