Eddie

Hopefully he's more like David. I don't think Goliath coped well with things flying around his head .

Wow I seem to be the only one who took positives from that.

Not a classic game, but I though we played very well. Organised and solid, lacked that cutting edge but we already knew that. Encourage all the same by the fight and performance of the players. We probably would have beaten anyone but Chelsea tonight. Shame about the penalty miss, but not the end of the world. We really have got a real bargain in the form of Nelsen, that guy looks more than capable at the back.

See this is a game, I don't mind we are losing, because I actually think we've been decent. Really that is all that matters.

Why total destruction of their team? If we are the better team we will win, hell if we are going to win I'd still say we won't be the better side. They aren't unbeatable.

Alright Ulrablue, that's total crap. End to end game, passion, quality, excitement. You don't get games like that in other leagues. Great stuff, very entertaining.

It's one of those weird ones, where you know they'll get 5 or something. I know I'm talking crap now, and they won't, but you know what I mean? As long as we go out and play well I'll be happy, regardless of the final score, just have a good feeling about this for some reason. Though for the past couple of months I've had a good feeling about all Rovers matches.

It is hard to be aggressive when you only have 14 players...

Pompey drawn level against Boro

Elsewhere Charlton and Boro both winning.

God can you say anything else?

Well my dad is a lifelong united fan, so I always feel a bit bad for him, he looks so sad, and I think of me after a Rovers defeat, but then I remember its United, and rub it in.

I'll start it off then...I hope it's purple

I've always be tempted to become involved in this discussion, but gave up months ago as it is dominated by you metal lovers. Not my cup of tea I have to say, well it was for a phase, but got past that when I was about 14.

I'll be watching as well, also want Arsenal to win.

Oh give it a rest. Pointless crap. Stay on the topic and make football related comments that do make sense, rather than your subjective view of the world. He's gone, some of us will have wanted him to stay, some of us will have wanted him to leave. I'm quite sure that most of us were excited by the prospect of the Savage/Ferguson midfield pairing, however, once Bazza became set on leaving the club did their best to get a good fee for him, and I think they did quite a good job. No good either having a go at each other or the club now, not going to help anyone out.

If we can get the first goal, then that will crucial, after reviewing all the stats, Chelsea have only gone behind to start games 3 times this season, and only winning those once, so if we can get that first goal then it could be very important.

Difference is, at least Todd refused to play because he felt he deserved more, in a strange way it almost shows his feelings for the club. Whereas Ferguson refused to play because he simply wanted out.

We'd just see all our regulars suddenly seated in the upper regions of each stand haha

I presume that 4.5 million included what we owed to Rangers, we didn't exactly break even, but it isn't terrible, it was worth it for all the glory bazza brought to rovers...oh wait...

You just posted exactly the same thing on two different topics. I know you are old and all, but senility is really starting to set in.

AESF did you not ever consider that we knew we were between a rock and a hard place, and knowing that this was a question of getting as much as we could for him, made it known that we wanted quite a bit, and as a result of this were able to get more than we would of had we publicly valued him at 5 million? I know Rovers fans always look at the glass as half empty, but before jumping on the boards backs, have you ever even taken a moment to think of that? It seems like common business sense. You always start higher than you expect, the bidder negotiates you down, but you are still happy with the final outcome. Go to any European market or antique market, and you'd see such things occur everyday. You don't turn around to the dealer and say: "what a puff look, you started at 10 pounds and I got you down to 8" "but sir I really would have been happy only getting 7"

Totally right, and judging from his character and the end result, I'd say the answer was probably no.

I bet Friedel would be loyal

Quality. Whats Dickov doing standing behind the goal? The goal keeper looks lke Graham Poll And also has the smallest head in the world...
