Jordans mate..supergrass .... and Dingle. Oi he was after your hat anyway.

I have lots more......can anybody advise how i can get the others put on the net somewhere.

Fraid not Chris. I do have many more pics, for instance Me Scotty, manchester blue and Ste after a night out on 1 Euro a shot but i can only fit just over 50 on this so thought the football ones would be more important.

Hope it ok for me to create a new thread but i have managed to get 52 of my 118 pictures from Germany onto the net. The site is HERE

I would add Nils -Johansson to that list of Positives for me has being the outstanding player of this Germany tour.

Speaking to Danny about this and he said De Pedro said F**k You when the foul was given so he was given a yellow card he then said F**k You again when booked so he was sent off. Atleast it didnt take him long to pick up on the English language.

Hello again. Just got back from Ulm to Stuttgart and feeling slightly worse for wear. So....... we caught the train from Stuttgart and got into Ulm for about 12:30 and checked into the hotel. We then walked into town and saw some Brum fans which really looked like the sort of people who wanted more than a beer and were talking part in a Stone Island/Burberry cat walk. I than had a phone call off our friend Daniel who plays for SSV Ulm so he took us out for a bite to eat and a beer and drove us to the ground and gave us a mini tour of the ground and a breif insight into the history of the club and the ground. We then went into the local bar (Blues Bar type of this) and met up with the Ewood Blues. We had a few more beers and Daniel had a chat to the Ewood Blues lot. At about 18;00 we made our ways to the the ground and got some scarfs pendants e.t.c. and closely followed by beer and Rote Wursts. Into the ground we strung our flags up and sat back with our beers watching the rovers warm up. You will already know the score and teams but from the game the two players who stood out for me were Javier De Dedro and Nils -Eric -Johannson. From all the games Nils has not put a foot wrong and has being very commanding and i would have thought the first choice back 2 would be Nils and Amo. De pedro has good feet but he crossing was very good he tended to do low crosses whipped in with pace around the back of defenders which caused troubles every time. Also he tends to stick to left rather than moving in field, which he did when required, but not all the time like Emerton. All in all a very good start to pre season from Rovers and if they play like they have being they wont have any problems at all, i would also say we have a stronger squad than this time last season. Birmingham i would say had about 200 fans, slightly more than our 20 but during the Birmingham game we were out singing those Brummy fans and really showing them who had the better fans. After the Brum game we went back to the bar had a few more beers and then Danny drove us back to the hotel and took us for a kebab. Back in the hotel we got outside our room door and both Ste and i were too drunk to use the key so Ste told me to go to reception and thell them the key was f****d which i obliged with and when got back to the boor ste was outside the room on he knees head in hand praying. Anyways i hope you have enjoyed my stories from Germany and i hope to get all my photos on the site as soon as it is sorted. I should have them developed for Wednesday so if you see me and you wanna see them just ask. ´Cheers Jordan

Great pic of the flags and theres me giving some english abuse to some fans i think.

Shouldnt think so, i would have thought we will have a strong case if he does as the game was only a 50 minute game. Souey seemed to be shaking his hand after the game and in a boyent mood so hopefully he wont be banned and wont be included in the referees report.

We were talking to Souey last night and he said the reason we didnt want Romeo De Pato(or who ever he is) is because we are going to try and sign him.

Scotty you missed thje bit about the ref walking in the bar afterwards. Nice to see you got back ok. Had a great time. Still sunny over here. Will tell daniel (dennis) you say hi.

Hello again. So yesturday what a great day. Got into Reutlingden at about 1 ish and made our ways to the nearest bar where we were supplied with beer and free shots of uzo. We then met up with the Ewood Blues lot and had a drink in the Irish bar and made our way to the stadium at around 4ish. When we arrived at the stadium we paid €15 to get in. I then bought a pendent scarf and all other memrobillia and then made our way to the beer garden outside the stadium. We made our way into the stadium to watch the Souey and Saunders match which was ok but not as much as when a dingle walks in wearing a dingle shirt. My god he got some grief. He apparantly teachs German in Colne. Next match was the Rovers v´s SSV Reutlingen. Nothing really to report. Gresko was left sided midfield and McEvelly was left back. Reid and Neil were swapping roles through out the match. Gallys first was from about 10 yards out with Vratty i think cutting it back and the keeper no where to be seen. His second was class. Cutting in from the left he then curled the ball into the bottom right hand corner of the goal from around the corner of the box. He could have had a hat-rick when he rounded the keeper only to put the ball slightly wide from an accute angle. For the next two games we decided to go back to bar where we were chatting away to other fans when a lad comes over and says English? we reply yes and he starts talking to us. It only turns out he is one of the Ulm players who used to play for Motherwell. So i have his mobile number and i need to ring him before the match and he is talking us all out for some drinks before and after the match. Also at that point Souey walks by so we were all chatting Scottish football as he played under Terry Butcher at Motherwell. Second game kicked off late as both the other matchs went to pens. Started lively with a few stupid chalenges until de pedro decided to catch one of their players the ref brought the yellow out and he must have mouthed off as the red card was taken out. That heated the game off, and the small pocket of around 20 Rovers fans started hurling abuse at him which created a bit of a stir. Dickov also made a late high cahallenge from behind where in a premiership match he would have being straight off. NMot much else happend and you probablý know the penalty situation as i was on the phone to Tris all the way through. After the match we went for some more beers in the beer garden and were joined by a few Rovers players having a little chat. Then back to the Irish bar for a couple of night caps and then on to Stuttgart in a taxi. Sorry about the spelling as some of the letters on this keyboard are in a different place and i am rushing as getting charged by the minute. Shall be back on Saturday and will keep in touch with someone on here to let you hear the news first, as it happens. See ya soon Jordan

Hello all. Game was great apart from De Pedros sending off. Slightly late challenge but then he mouthed off so off he went.

Right lads off to another bur so will contact proparly on Wednesday to fill in abolut Routlingden. Please not info may mnot be correct as the "eien grosse beir bitter" may typr the words for me.

Now that's not good at all... I wouldn't be worried if it was someone else (Well, maybe Matteo) but it's not very encouraging. I just hope it's the other knee, or that it's simply bruised. I think it may have just been procortionalry WHAT? Precautionary mate Yeah that will vbe ity!! That will be it!!!
