Sorry I haven’t been updating this very often, busy time for a student at the minute!
Quick rundown, we were unbeaten in eight, lost at United, drew at Fulham then got beat at home by Villa. A rather convincing defeat brought us down to Earth with a bang, although the 4-0 scoreline heavily flattered The Villains.

Fulham 2 - 2 Rovers (plus highlights)

Rovers should have come away from Craven Cottage after a dominant performance but, alas, it wasn’t to be.

After Rovers disappointing result at Old Trafford I’ve come up with a way of consoling yourself.
Close your eyes, go on, trust me. (Although it would make it difficult to read, so maybe just half close them)

Ahh so the run is over.
Rovers were beaten by the best team in England in the toughest stadium to play in.
Samba hit the bar from 30 yards and Bentley and Santa Cruz had chances but a lapse in concentration at a corner gave United the lead, Ronaldo heading it past Friedel. Then, almost instantly, we [...]
