Oh right, I thought you were picking me up for saying "whinging mincer"! I meant demographic as in the age distribution of those voting is (I'd guess) heavily skewed towards those who never watched Rovers much before 1980.

Eh?

Voting seems to be greatly influenced by voting demographics. I never saw Newton play, but I bet he was better than Le Sauce! The whinging mincer.

No-one can moan at being left out at the minute. I just hope he's got some life left in his legs ...

We're deperately short of craft and guile at the minute. As such, I'm not surprised we've gone after him.

As much as it's nice to be positive Philip, it was quite clear that we lack class going forward. There was a definite lack of alertness/ alacrity, and a paucity of ideas in the final third. We lack someone of genuine class who the opposition fear. OK, Everton are in the top three and they have no-one, but we have no-one as well as springing leaks everywhere. The defence doesn't inspire confidence, we do not possess a midfield to be feared and if we were being cruel, our forward line is a mix of rookies and try-hards. Thanks, Graeme!

We should have had a penalty, definitely. It wasn't blatant, a bit of playmanship in trying to take the sting out of the ball, but a definite penalty nonetheless. Charlton's claim wasn't as strong but we were still a little lucky with it. We struggled to get to grips with playing through Charlton's formation, but the biggest thing for me was a proven striker up front. We will struggle now. Got a lot of time for Stead (still very young), Dickov (can never be faulted for effort), Jay (classy deep-lying player) and possibly Jansen (still not totally conviced), but we desperately need someone who is an out-and-out poacher who knows where the goal is (and has some height), someone proven. Emerton still drifts in too early but at least showed some confidence despite taking the easy option at times. At least we only conceded one goal, but I should imagine there'll be changes in Jan. Can't wait for the transfer window.

Not tonight mate, I'd never get back to Deal. Is the Chelsea game next month at Stamford bridge, if so will be there.

Well, go ahead then Rodders, you muddyfunster! Bit of broken glass will keep you quiet!

"white caucasians"? Can you get "black caucasians" then? Is that like a "Black Russian"?! You is talking jive, boy!

Who would want to buy us? We're not an attractive proposition. I can't imagine that it would be in line with JW's wishes, and I can only hope that it's tabloid rubbish.

Fantastic, I do love a good attendance debate!

Isn't the sports village right out on the ring road though.

I'm so sari!

Maybe we should show Bollywood Movies prior to the kick-off? Or have an Asian fashion show at h/t? Or maybe turn Ewood into an Asian ghetto? Or perhaps make the players wear turbans? Or maybe even treat them the same as the rest of the market? Nah!

Are we refusing to serve them foods at the minute then? That's disgusting, no wonder they're not turning up. "I only want a burger! Is it cos I is Asian?"

To be fair, Bellamy has also been quoted as saying that he's happy to play out there for the good of the team - although that same quote does also mention that he's not too happy there. Who cares? Not our problem anymore, but will probably be amusing to see how many bust-ups develop. And there surely will be some, there's too many dummy-spitters at that place.

Quality!

Well, I'm sure over the past few years we've had rather a few "let's bring in Hendry as defensive coach toss toss toss" comments. So, it's nice to see him doing so well in League 1, 3 points from 8 games, really showing his coaching credentials!

This MB definitely needs a metal-detector meter. It seems a widespread problem. Silvery and bronzy are picked up fairly easily but irony is missed by many!

You do need 4 decent strikers competing for positions. I'm sure he'll get plenty of playing time between now and January. Not got much else to say apart from how glad I am we got three points on the board, and players weren't played out of position. Think we need 2 or 3 wins out of the next four games though to get out of trouble.

"Matteo is just scum"? What's that all about?

Bloody hell, Souness didn't have them jumping in ice baths?! That's common knowledge that they aid muscle recovery. Radcliffe does it, English RU team does it, everyone does it. That's poor on Souness's part.

Oh whatever, I couldn't give a monkey's. I didn't tell you to shut up, I told you you were talking crap I seem to recall.

Sounds more like you came on here for a bit of a ruck. And to answer your question, I haven't been to many games, other than seeing some bum-kicking at QPR a few years back, I can't help.
