Martin Petrov 2 – 2 Rovers with highlights
By: Dan Clough |Sorry for the lack of posting recently. It’s Christmas and the beer has been well and truly flowing!
Rovers were struck twice by the lightning speed of Bulgarian winger Martin Petrov but twice came back to rescue a point.
We became the first club to take points from Eastlands this season and broke a run of nine [...]
Rovers 2 – 3 Arsenal (aet): A Game of Four Halves
By: Dan Clough |Shocking and embarressing, two words that describe the first half for Rovers. Two goals that could have been easily prevented had our defence been in the form they were in a couple of months ago.
Unfortunately that’s all in the past and we are currently defending like the French army.
Luckily, we’ve got two players called David [...]
If I was the boss
By: Dan Clough |Right, I’ve just taken over as manager of Rovers (Hughesy has gone to United). Here’s what I do…
1. Sell Benni McCarthy.
Benni was a fantastic signing and was an immense player for us last season. He nearly got a dream move to Chelsea in the summer but it didn’t happen. Since then he’s not looked interested [...]
Wigan 5 – 3 Rovers
By: Dan Clough |The good run we were enjoying is definitely over.
See below for highlights, but this is the game in a nutshell…
Shit defence, shit referee, shit penalty, pointless sending off, Wigan’s first win since SEPTEMBER, Rovers’ fifth defeat in seven games, ex-Rover Marcus Bent and Santa Cruz hattricks.
In a word, BOLLOCKS!
Rovers 0 – 1 West Ham: Champions League! Yer Avin A Laugh!
By: Dan Clough |So often this season various members of the Rovers squad and management team have suggested that Rovers are now good enough to challenge for a top four spot. They are wrong.
Today’s game was a shambles. Yes, we didn’t deserve to lose. We had enough chances in the second half to beat West Ham but didn’t [...]
Benni McCarthy – Just a big baby?
By: Dan Clough |As Mark Hughes prepares for showdown talks with Benni after yet another paddy from the South African striker I can’t help but start thinking he’s a bit of a baby!
After being subbed in Saturday’s win over Newcastle (with the score at 1-1 and Rovers searching for a winner) he stormed down the tunnel and left [...]
Iiiiiiiiiitttttttt’s Coventry!
By: Dan Clough |The FA Cup third round will see us host Coventry City.
The Championship side who spent so long in the top flight before falling from grace may well fancy their chances in this tie.
I was personally hoping for an even lower side as Coventry could be a potential banana skin. However if we keep our concentration [...]
Cup draw looms, another run please?
By: Dan Clough |As the FA Cup draw beckons (3:15pm on BBC1 to be exact) it’s time to start praying for some silverware.
We have two chances, the Beer Cup and the FA Cup.
In order to win trophies, you have to beat the best, so for us to beat Arsenal and progress in the Carling Cup is entirely possible. [...]
Rovers 3 – 1 Newcastle
By: Dan Clough |Rovers are back to winning ways!
Three wonderful goals, two from Bentley and one from the one and only Tugay saw us ease past Newcastle and put the fat ex-Bolton *******’s job under more scrutiny!
Enjoy these highlights and pay particular attention to the wonderful commentary…
