  1. Ha, Ha, is this a wind up? If not this is surely the best excuse ever for not going to a game. "I might get my bum felt by a fat bloke in hotpants called Daffyd." I can imagine the headlines in the LET - ROVERS FANS IN GAY STAY AWAY SHOCKER. My advice to everyone is not to get too ###### on Friday or you might end up with more than you bargained for.
  2. Are we proud of our FA Cup record? Yes, of course its bigger. I hope its not too cold in the back of that car by the way.
  3. Whatever the reasons its very worrying that we can only muster 15,000 for a cup-semi. This is a good crowd for the size of the town etc but ask yourselves how many any of the other local teams would take for such a huge 1 off game. We can't argue that its because we are used to this kind of game can we as its the first time in 45 years we've got there. I think there is such a sence of lethargy around the club at present that people can't be bothered to make the effort and that is worrying. You go to Ewood or even away games at the moment and everyone just sits and watches, there's no enthusiasm and no player/fan link at all. Its all very flat, even now we are doing quite well. I thought that beating the Dingles and having a good run would turn things around, like it did in 2000/01 under Souness, but this hasn't happened yet. I reckon that if things were going better and people were a bit more upbeat we would have had 25,000 down in cardiff come what may.
  4. How ###### were you Berkshireblue? Quinn was playing for Swindon that day and put them 1-0 but Killer Keeley pulled it round for us with 2 2nd half goals.
  5. Does it go to pens or is it a replay? If its pens then I'm going for a 0-0 with us sneaking it 1-0 on pens. Pederson to score the only goal after hitting the post and it bouncing back in off the goalies arse.
  6. Cowans was a maestro. I think someone must be getting him mixed up with someone else. What about the 1st premiership season, he was superb. Agre with most of yours MC but would probably go for Ashley Ward as the worst ever.
  7. I'm with you there. It could be worse couldn't it, we could have lost against the Dingles. Getting to a cup semi isn't such a bad thing is it?
  8. People who aren't going because its too expensive or awkward to get to should maybe think about 2 things:- 1) How sick will you feel if we win and you have missed it? 2) What if its another 45 years till we get to a cup semi again?
  9. Does anyone know the best places to go for pre-match beer?
  10. Please no Final Countdown, no Rocky theme tunes and definitely no Status Quo or Queen, these have all been done to death. We aren't a blooming ice hockey team for Christ's sake. What about "Come on the Rovers" or, even better. "By Gum We'll Make it a Day".
  11. How is Levein doing at Leicester? I have always rated him as a player and as a manager. He did really well at Hearts bearing in mind all the turmoil they were in when he was there. They also gave a couple of really good performances in Europe which shows he had them well organised. I think if you give him a decent chance he'll do the business for you. Hopefully this won't start tomorrow though eh!
  12. Do you appreciate chants of "Kindon's wife is on the game again"? If so I think I could be in for a good night.
  13. What train are you getting down Fife Rover? I think we are about 11.50 from Waverley. Getting overnight bus back from Preston at 2am, does anyone know any Tuesday night late drinks in Preston at al?
  14. Does anyone know how many we have sold and how many they have sold? I don't care about the excusaes but it will be embarrasing if we do not sell out as:- 1) They are on open sale to all enetents and purposes 2) We only have 22,000 or so to sell 3) They are quite cheap 4) Its not on telly. Thats not even to mention that its the biggest game at Ewood for years against our deadliest rivals and will be the best atmosphere since about nineteencanten. For f***s sake, whats the matter with you who haven't got your tickets yet.
  15. I can't understand why people are so down about yesterday, I thought it was great. The atmosphere was fantastic and I'm sure both seta of fans were singing so much they drowned the other lot out. I thought Burnley were quiet at the game but they sounded loud on TV. The match may have been a non-event but so what, how often do we get the chance to vent our feelings at each other? In many ways the game itself was a side show to the main event.
  16. Lets just forget about this clown, he was never as good as his brother anyway. I would rather have Savage as our midfield general on Sunday so it looks like we are all winners out of the whole sorry affair. It shows how committed he was to Rovers that after 18 months at the club he didn't know who are main rivals were. Then again, he is well known for being as thick as a plank. If he had still been at Rovers he might have spent Sunday night drinking round Padiham in a Rovers shell-suit if previous experience is anything to go by.
  17. Saw the programme last night. It was a play on his Love God image. I think it is probably the weight of his manhood which makes him overweight. He did seem a bit gutted that he wasn't allowed to leave which makes me think "F**k you, you're under contract here so how dare you try and sell yourself to another club." But I suppose everyone else does it. Personally I would be delighted to see him go as I think he is a really bad player.
  18. Does anyone know if the game is on in Sweden and if so is there anywhere recommended in Stockholm for watching the game? A mate of mine is over there for the weekend.
  19. What a load of boring crap. The 4-5-1 formation is all about damage limitation when you are at our level and there was no need to be so negative against Boro who had loads of injuries and were pretty poor as well. I cam't understand why Hughes perseveres with Neill and Mateo at full back, in my opinion neither of them is good enough. We really needed a new striker and now we are stuck with what we have for the rest of the season it could be tough. The next 2 games are crucial to the rest of the season.
  20. Absolutely fantastic, can't wait for it. If the last time is anything to go by though it will be hard to get tickets because of the Rovers ticketing policies. I think you will have to have a season ticket, been to Oldham away in 1977, be a JP and promise not to drink alcohol for 14 days either side of the game to get 1. Here's hopoing though eh! Can everyone not just ignore the dingles coming on talking about their fantastic fans. Its very boring and absolute crap. I expect it to be at 12 on Sunday and it should be live on BBC judging by the other ties. I also expect us to stuff the knuckle scrapppers.
  21. If anyone is going by train get yourselves into Hogan's in Darlington before the game for the cheapest beer in the western world. Its about £1.20 a pint and there are several other cracking alehouses in Darlo with similarly priced beer. Darlington is only a few miles from Boro and a much better place to go pre-match, Boro is a bit of a dump. I can see us sneaking this one 1-0 with a Savage free-kick.
  22. 0-4. It can't be any more depressing that last weeks game.
  23. Its at lunchtime on Monday, bring on the Dingles!
  24. Apparantly 24 January is statistically the most depressing day of the year, and that was before the game. That was the worst advert for Premiership football ever. The game was a boring slog between 2 poor teams who had no idea how to create anything. The passing from both teams was a disgrace and I'm sure you would see better in Scotish Division 3. Our full backs were terrible and we needn't have bothered having forwards out there for the amount of times they were passed to.Was Nelsen injured? If not, why wasn't he playing, and what about Nissa? Neill and Matteo have got to go. To make things worse the game was settled by a piece of blatant and unpunished cheating. He gets away with it, the ref gets away with it and they are all free to carry on next week. No wonder there is so much cheating when there is no incentive not to cheat. The FA should give him a retrospective red card and a 3 game ban for that but it aint gonna happen is it. The club needs to get together to stamp it out but thats not gonna hapopen either. The attitude of all the bolton people and the TV people is also sickening. Its just a shrug of the shoulders and a "part of the game". Its only part of the game because no-one does anything about it. I don't think I would be alone in saying that scum like Dioeff drive people away from football. Why do we pay £25+ to watch a game where your money just goes to line the pockets of some money grabbing low-life who is encouraged in his antics by the rest of the game.
  25. Good signing but he has to be told to "get your bloody hair cut!" I can't understand his homesickness reasons for signing though. Surely Blackburn and Birmingham are about the same distance from Wrexham aren't they? Why not just come out and say that Blackburn are a far bigger and more succesfull club who do not have a wingeing hypocrit as a manager. And how many clubs did Bruce walk out on before he ended up at Brum....?
