So then, the last game of the season is nearly here! Away to Torquay where 1500 Gasheads will be in the away end and several hundred more in the home end. So whats your score predictions for our final game?
Team news.... Bristol Rovers defender Lee Brown is a doubt for the final game of the season. The left-back missed training on Thursday after contracting a sickness bug and will be assessed before the trip to Devon.
Bristol Rovers manager John Ward told BBC Radio Bristol: "There are five or six that could still be relegated and Torquay are one of them. We have been through all that and fortunately for us we got ours sorted out early. We expect a tough game, with a big following from the home crowd, but also a big following from us, it is a proper game and we have to be right. Hopefully my players can free up and play and enjoy it, but we have to give a good account of ourselves. Judging from the performance last Saturday against Accrington, perhaps one or two of the younger boys have found the last little bit hard going. We have got to do as best as we can at Torquay – there are a lot of other football clubs relying on us. We did the best could against Accrington but I think it was a stage two far for one or two of the younger guys. Hopefully we can pick up the energy this weekend and give a good account of ourselves; one because we have to it is our job, and the other things is we have sold 1,500 away tickets and they do not want to waste the money on a journey. I will be rallying the troops for one last big effort and hope we can finish on a high."
i think it will be either 1-1 or 2-1 torquay unfortunately. whats your score prediction and likely team?
Away to Torquay where 1500 Gasheads will be in the away end and several hundred more in the away end. .?????
right then, come on gas, just over an hour to go for kick off. be great to end the season with 3 points especially for the away fans who have still gone today spending their money, even though the season has been over for weeks for us, none of this 98 business like another team, over 1500 gasheads to get behind the gas, proud to be a gashead
Starting line up for us... ......................Mildenhall....................... Smith.....Parkes.....McChrystal.....Brown Harrison....Norburn....Clarke....Hammer ................Brunt......Hitchcock...............
hope you are right! suprised to see harrold is being risked. although he has been fit for the last few weeks but not risked. so why now? strange. wonder where anyinsah is? injured or is this an early sign that he may not be here next season?
radio just said that mcdonald has returned back to port vale. loan has finished. makes sense really. last game today, he aint involved, saves money in his wages. today parkes returns to CB along side mcchrystal. clarke starts again this time starting along side norburn.
the front 6 today (midfield/forwards) are all aged 23 and under. hammer is the oldest at 23. the other front 5 are aged 20 or younger with not much experience between them. should be interesting!
