Just not a home defeat please. Not against the bottom of the league.

Lost for words to be honest. Totally embarrassing.

Kind of a contradiction of terms there mate. I think we got him on a free tbh. So nowt lost in terms of money if he proves to be as you say.

Before I started supporting Rovers my team was WBA..... Only for the fact that I was given their kit for Xmas when I was 4 years old. Still don't know why to this day! Visiting Burnden park as a 13 year old in 1977 was only my second experience in watching a live football match, the first being 1969 at turf moor v West Brom. My parents dropped off me and my younger brother and we made our way onto the Burnden Terrace. My parents went shopping in town in the meanwhile. Can't remember how the game v Albion panned out tbh.... Either 1-1 0r 0-0...not that many Baggies fans behind the goal but still loads of bother outside and scared me shitless. Luckily my parents were across the main road waiting for us... Couldn't get away quickly enough. Horrible place.

Bang on.... Whilst I don't like criticism of our own players we were crying out for a proven goalscorer today. We should have been 2 up at half time but for some reason our forwards decided to wear leg irons today and every chance was a scuffed effort. I think it would have been better to use those charity models outside of newsagents in the old days, the ones with coin slots in their heads and wearing calipers on one leg. Very disappointed with how it ended despite our good start to the game. I've been a supporter of Pears during his stint in goal but after today we surely have to give the Swedish chef his chance. Travis (ty)..... Don't know what to say about his performance today. He looked very poor imho. Well done to those that made the 600 + miles round trip. Credit to our club.

Kaminski drops a bollock for West Hams first goal.

Who would we like in the next round? If Sheffield United progress I'll bet its that lot away ffs !

It's not on rovers tv for me here in Swedish chef land and I can't be arsed pissing around with dodgy streams. Hope I'm wrong but I think we could get dry bummed here. 3-0 at best. Prove me wrong boys please.

According to the Rovers website a record attendance..... Yet it doesn't mention how many... Typical. Anybody know?

Used to be called mambo's in the 70s.

Sorry mate... I've no idea.

A lot of great posts on this thread. Thanks to @arbitro for the OP. Great memories and a dream come true for all Rovers fans. All down to one great local man. I'll never forget him and what he did for our football club.

Cigarette lighter thrown at Lewis the City player. Hit him on the head. One fan got on the pitch also but was soon subdued. And City won without clicking really. That said, despite the scoreline, I didn't think the Dingles looked that bad.

Football pales in comparison. Family comes first. Best wishes to your father mate.

Any decent player that leaves that club weaker is OK by me.

Probably includes cup games.

Aggregate over the last 12 games is appx 26-1 to city.

I fuckin hate that club..... Biased commentary aswell.

It was live on sky sports you tube channel for what it's worth. Nice town not to far away and plenty of stop of places for a pint or 2.

We aren't losing this.. Happy with a draw but a win.. Chuffed to bits. Hopefully on Rovers fucking rip off shambles TV who owe me £35 to date. We are in 2023 are we not?

Most of us know where all this will end up. Sadly. A European super league. And that tied up with what's happening in Saudi Arabia the goalposts will be shifted again to support both. Let the greedy get on with it imho. And when it goes tits up don't let them back to where they left.

I did the same after having my match day pass cancelled. So paid £25 for the monthly pass and had the same as yourself. When buying a pass it says its for those outside of the UK and NI. Then when you've actually paid it's as Goozeburger says.... Broadcasting partners etc... Only 6 European countries were able to view today's game!!! And where I am, Sweden, wasn't one of those. Pain in the arse.

Miserable sod! How about a bit of positivity?
