Pre-Match View From Bristol Rovers — The View From

"Yes they are having a real bad time in the Prem and this is a side that you would probably want to come up against if you wanted a 'beatable' premiership side. Very low on confidence, a few sending offs, concentrating on the league survival so maybe wont risk they key players. BUT… they are

Finished my reffing career at Brammall Lane in 1992.Morning KO when Leeds beat them 3.2 and as liverpool beat Man U 4-0 later that afternoon,it turned out to be the title decider.Only ran the line but nice to finish on a top game.

Weird

“Wasn’t keen on Wilder when he was at Oxford and Northampton, but got to like him. Went to the last away game against them, nice friendly people. A disabled girl was presented to the crowd before the game. We all joined in the round of applause for her achievement, which was only right. Her father then came on the forums thanking us. Now feel a bit of a connection to them.”

Pussy. Get her f******g kidneys punched.

"Having watched Mousset at AFCB before he went to Sheff U I can say he’s absolutely useless with no pace."

Fuck me. Pace is literally his strongest asset

Some good comments on there from proper football supporters who follow their team through thick and thin a bit like us. They were out of the league in the last few years so they know all about struggling.
Can we win this well that depends on the team selected and the mind set of the players. A win here could galvanise our season. I would like Young Hackford to start. Difficult game but can see us being too strong for a determined Rovers side

Thanks Roy

 

[Speedracer]

Thanks Roy.

Surprisingly respectful ( or realistic) comments on the whole, despite the left field comment about Moose having no pace. They come across as proper football fans.

 

[Harry's Game]

At least there are no comments about them giving us our first three points of the season.

 

[Shoreham_Bhoys]

I don’t see why we’re called “physical” and “organised/well-drilled”.

We shirk challenges and are regularly bullied by bigger players, and our organisation is toss.

 

[Melbourne Blade]

Bloody lower league fans with their sensible and constructive comments

 

[coaxingstar71]

Come on Silent Blade or Revolution , who was the ref for the game when we lost at home to Leeds 3-2 in 1992 that virtually sealed the League title for them?

It makes a change from the entitled fans of ‘big 6’ clubs!

 

[Argentinemanager]

Not bad comments from a decent set of fans, apart from the colours by far my favourite bristol team

 

[Bayingblade]

I try to like Bristol Rovers but I can't get past them beating us in the Watney Cup final

 

[Geordie Blade]

It was the lino, so it’ll be a choice of two.

 

[Houston_Blade]

Fair comments there. One thing they’ve missed is that if they were in the PL they’d probably have more than 2 points. We aren’t PL standard and our CB’s don’t overlap anymore.

 

[blackydog]

"play the fringe players"

 

[XM657]

As said realistic comments on the whole.
Believe the old, dyslectic, double 'm', and written as if, to me, Howard Wilkinson was our manager, referee must have been on scrumpy when he wrote that. Fucking HW, Ughhhhhh spew.
As to the result, I'll accept owt, then on to the next game. That's the way I see things just now.
Thank you Roy.

Is it though? He looks very slow this season

Yeah a few of us have noticed that about you

 

[Wincobank S9 Blade]

Should win this hopefully the season changer

 

[CoatesyBlade]

Let’s smash the fookers! Bristol fooking Rovers talking about how shite we are! Get em smashed... get this bloody season off and running!

 

[Bashamed]

Yeah a few of us have noticed that about you

Nice

 

[bornablade]

Thanks Roy.

Good, sensible comments from football fans who know something about football.

Better than the 'head up their arse' comments we've seen from the 'football started in 1992' brigade

 

[HackeyBlade]

Attempt crosses often?

More like fuck about with the ball near the corner flag then play it back to our keeper

With all those weaknesses we should be getting smashed 6-0 every week
