Ouch :cry:


You're good but no Blackburn, Boro or Derby.

To be honest if three of those four teams went up I'd be happy. No problems with any of the other three. :wub:

Just as long as Leeds ( :dread: ) or Sheffield bloody United don't come up.

Bloke in my work's a huge Leeds fan. I got a load of texts from him when they came to Ewood the other week about how they were going to smash us, and he'd been talking to anyone who'd listen about how they were bringing 7,500 away fans to the ground. I was at a conference so couldn't watch the game but when I saw we were 1-0 and then 2-1 up I just texted back "Hi [colleague's name], it's Cora from work. Could you tell me the Blackburn vs Leeds score please?" He hated it. :lol:

Hello!

(We're eighth technically but it's the same amount of points.)

I had no idea Norwich were doing so well.

This last eighteen months or so has been a complete breath of fresh air for Rovers, and this season has been immense - the idea of being a point away from the play offs after we were relegated last year was absolutely unthinkable. I know we'll eventually fall away but Mogga's got us playing so well at the moment, we're grinding out results and not losing a lot. Wish he'd done that at Celtic right enough, but there you go. :lol:


It's been a bit odd, the immediate parallels are with Huddersfield, as we pinched Stuart Webber from them after the season they went up. We bought in the Dortmund Reserve team coach (similar to Wagner) and we had a high level of playing staff turnover last season as we tried to get players on PL wages off our books, and replace them with cheap Germans and younger players. We finished 14th last season and whilst we had a couple of good spells and some decent cup performances- a lot of the fans were getting a bit annoyed at the style of play which was keep possession at all costs and a lot of backwards and sideways passing.

At the start of this season I thought we were playing better, despite the results but a lot of the crowd had begun to get on Farke's back, nothing too heavy but there were murmurs. However the football we are no playing is far more probing and whilst having a lot of possession we have begun to do something with it. And we've been pretty much unstoppable since the Derby having won 8 of the last 10 league games drawing against Derby and losing to Stoke after we scored an own goal.

Why don't you post in here anymore?

I don't want to be the only blabbering idiot left talking to himself :shifty:.

Looking forward to this Saturday? Big game ;).


Hi mate.

Fabian Delph is a banana split.

That's a cracking result for the Villa, and we played excellently too - what a difference Dean Smith has made already!

I called off his players' names as they came marching up the steps behind him....All nice guys. They'll finish last. Nice guys. Finish last.

Love that weve found our goalscoring touch right before we play those dickheads in a few weeks.

Watched the highlights. Looks like we absolutley battered derby in the 2nd half. Strange what a coach that wants to score can achieve.

First thing when I woke up this morning I had a vision Forest got promoted this season, we didn't and Lampard left us to manage them in the Premier League.

It was bloody awful :dread: :cry:.

Max Power had never been sent off before this season - he's just had his third straight red of the season already. :x Idiot. That's gonna be a lengthy suspension.

I'm extremely happy! :D

Three wins in a row and we're still not playing anywhere near our potential. We can only get better!

Sol Campbell has finally landed a managerial post - at Macclesfield - perhaps now he'll stop whining about being refused jobs under the pretense of his skin colour.
