You understand you're on an English board right? You couldn't be more offensive if you tried

Well that's certainly a misjudgement from the coaching staff

Is everyone else wondering how you can be bollock naked whilst wearing a Rovers shirt, or is it just me......

Interesting discussion on Radio Rovers: Halsey has sent off three Rovers recently - Neill, Zura and Todd. Two out of the three have been withdrawn, if this one follows suit, which it appears it will, surely the muppet should be shot......or sacked, whichever is easier.

Oh my god, get a room!

Whatever Mark Halsey is being paid it's too much. The man is a disgrace.

Probably because he's English, Rovers own him and he's a better player? Completely random reasons if you ask me.

Game over, and this ref is an absolute tw@t. He's clearly from Merseyside.

Typical we're all over them and can't put it in the back of the net, they get one chance (which we gifted to them by all accounts) and they put it away.

No we're playing 4-4-2, Bentley is playing upfront (where he should play mind). I'd suggest Kuqi is being saved for a second half blast if we need it, that's where he's most effective.

I was just about to post something very similar to that, though I was waiting for his pre-match interview to make sure they weren't injured

I can't make it this week. Last game I missed? Charlton.....sods law we'll bang four past them again

Surely somebody's mentioned why all this is happening to him. It's the 'tash, once he shaved it off it's all been downhill for him. Samson's hair, Souness' 'tash - the stuff of legend.

We officially rock

I think the guy is in love with Robbie Savage, he'll run up to him and push him down in the playground any minute now

He has a clause in his contract that if a Champions League team comes in for him he can go for £xm (an amount I'm not too sure about). With his performances this season he must be on the wish list of most top teams. Having said that I agree he does seem happy here, but the draw of more money and European football probably would be too much for the lad.

We won't be keeping hold of Bellamy for very long.

That's what the big money gets you

And you wonder why Hughes even bothers

Listening on the radio, we're creating nothing and they're putting in some dangerous crosses.

There are still tickets in the City end right?

....and the fact we bagged two more after the incident

Well, 'Bambi on Ice' was John Stead

They're a disiplined defensive unit who hit teams on the break with two quick, relatively skillful forwards. They're obviously well coached defensively and at set pieces - as I've said numerous times whilst Souness was in charge, you can teach monkeys to defend well (which made you wonder what they did in training!). It's dire football, but effective. They'll get found out by the more creative teams later on in the season, but they'll probably pick up enough points to stay in the top half come the end.

Surprised no-one has mentioned Emerton's shocking miss of the open goal from Bellamy's cross. I'm not having a go at Bret as he scored a screamer, I just think the sublime cross from Craig highlights his quality. Could any of our other strikers do that, I don't think so. We're a different team when he's on the pitch - we can play it on the floor, go out wide, pass through the middle, or simply bang it up to Kuqi/over the top. The problems he poses for the opposition is great to watch. As somebody has said, he's our Henry, just hope he can stay healthy. As for the game, well it was great wasn't it. I commented to my dad about the fact we can play the rough stuff and the silky stuff, not too many teams in the league can do them both. You've got to admire the job Hughes has done, he's made a very fit cohesive unit out of very average players with a few quality ones thrown into the mix (Tugay, Bellamy, Nelsen). Very impressed!
