Rovers V Blyth Live Blog!!

By: Jimmy | Comments 12 Comments

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 [...]

Rovers 2-3 Pompey; A Game of Goals, Missed Chances, and Blown Calls

By: Jimmy | Comments 1 Comment

The first half was just terrible. I dont even know if we can call that football. Whatever.
Then someone lit a fire under Pompey’s asses. And Rovers weren’t ready. 2 goals later the game looked hopeless. Had it had been the Rovers of a few years ago or even last year, it probably would have been. [...]

Carling Cup- Rovers v. Sunderland

By: Jimmy | Comments No Comments

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. [...]

Chelsea Preview and Updates

By: Jimmy | Comments 1 Comment

Well Chelski make their way to Ewood Park for the early game this Sunday. Now this is a case oh kicking the dog while it’s down after their thrashing at the hands of Roma during the Champions League this week. This fixture last year saw Rovers play hard but fall 1 nil. I realistically can’t [...]

Benni Mac- Thanks for making me feel like we won.

So, first off. And I’ll say it, I’ll say it once, and I don’t want to have to say it again. Tuncay’s goal was onside. But it was called off, and that kind of stuff happens all the time. End of.
That being said, Rovers dominated the first hour of this match. Boro had some chances [...]

Blackburn 1-0 Everton

By: Jimmy | Comments 8 Comments

Young Rover Martin Olsson scored the one goal last night for Rovers. Check the highlights I acquired below, it’s a pretty good link up with Fowler and a class finish. Everton out of the cup and a chance to play lower opposition in the next round? Yes please. There’s some notes and facts on the [...]

League Cup vs Everton

By: David | Comments 4 Comments

A repeat of our opening day fixture, except this time we are at home. Everton may have strengthened since then but their defence looks perilously poor at the moment. With our own defence lacking consistency, the match promises goals.
Watch it end 1-0…
Nonetheless I think we will win. I think playing Emo on the [...]

Rovers 1-0 Fulham w/ Highlights

By: David | Comments 9 Comments

On the face of it, nothing special really. A scrappy, late victory against a plucky, mediocre team at home. However, I think A LOT of positives can be taken:
- A clean sheet!!! This was most important, and I think I may have even been happy with a 0-0 as long as the defence had [...]

Rovers v West Ham Live Blog

By: Jimmy | Comments 17 Comments

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?
