Rovers capture Steven N’Zonzi

By: Jimmy |

7 Comments

The ball will not stop rolling as Rovers sign yet another player for the up coming term. Young starlet N’Zonzi is only just 20 years old, but stands a dominating 6′3″ and plays defensive midfield. Officially he has signed for four years at an undisclosed fee to his french lower league side Amiens SC, but [...]

15th Place, So Long Tugay. Vote for your POY

By: Jimmy |

Well, Tugay’s gone. Carlos gone. Ooijer: Gone. And Now, Mokoena; Gone. (clicky click click) Not too sure I’m that upset about the last one.
Let the silly season begin. For me, still playing in the top flight after the first half of the year we had is more then okay with me. We’ll strive to [...]

Final Score: Rovers 1-0 Blyth Spartans A nervy win but a win none the less. A fantastic free kick by Carlos Villanueva turns out to be all Rovers need to put the game away. Some positive things to be taken away here; Treacy, Simpson, Carlos’ performances for sure. One does have to wonder though why [...]

So there’s no stream to be found, I am stuck in math class, and re hashing text updates from other sites would be silly and borderline forgery. So Let us hope for the best in the mashup of a starting 11 Incey has thrown out, and I will get highlights up as soon as possible. [...]

Full time. Rovers fall to pieces though the scoreline doesn’t tell the tale. Not flattering for Rovers, though they missed their fair hare of chances. Final, 4-1, but what else is to be expected at West Ham?

A lucky start, and I’ll take it! (w/ highlights)

By: David |

No Comments

Ok, so the goal was soooo offside you wouldn’t believe!
Steven Warnock’s last minute free-kick was headed onto the post by captain Nelsen who was miles offside (and hence unmarked).
Nicely for us, Andre Ooijer was on hand to tap in and secure a 3-2 victory at Everton. What a great start for the new [...]
