    Relegation rival watch

    Football started as a shin kicking game wearing hobnail boots. I reckon we will be back to rudimentary basics. Not games for the faint hearted.

    Racist Tweets

    Sorry to see that you guys have been associated with this one. It is sickening that one asshole can besmirch a club and a City's name with this totally unacceptable behaviour.

    Match Day Thread versus Charlton

    Welcome back to the loony bin, Actually l say 'welcome', but l wouldn't wish this night mare on anyone. Rovers and Plymouth both had decent runs which in Plymouth's case seemed to have cleared the danger zone However here we both are back in the danger zone. It seems that this flat bottom to the...

    The unusually flat bottom of the table will continue to the end it seems. So many of the crap sides playing each other that too many games will reward at least two points. No doubt, some teams will have a good or bad run and our future could be decided over the next couple of games. It's a form...

    I started watching Rovers in the days of Geoff Bradford. l don't recall any table like this year's Div Three. Other than a couple of clubs, the top half of the table is promotion country and the bottom half in danger of relegation. Usually, at this time of year, results go haywire because the...

    Re Coventry. I don't think they will be too optomistic of a play off place. Three of their last games are away to Sunderland, Portsmouth and Doncaster??!!?

    Problem for us is that very often a change of head honcho is usually followed be an improvement in results. Sounds familiar to our lot doesn't it! We are in a patch of tricky fixtures. Anything against Coventry will be more than welcome. We desperately need to scrap for a couple of wins or we...

    I was under the impression that the £39B was our payment in order that we received a more favourable arrangement.

    This is where l feel for Parliament. They are clearly more in touch with the details of the negotiation because it's their job and they live within a close knit community of fellows.

    Just ploughed through the news. Junker does say that we must pay the £39 billion if we leave with ''' no deal"

    Off Topic So, what now?

    Something cropped up yesterday which alarmed me. Did l hear correctly? The EU are claiming that should we leave without a deal that they will still demand our £39 billion quid!!! So as it stands, whose bank is in possession of that money? I have an uncomfortable feeling it's the EU's If this is...

    I have sympathy with our current MPs. They are faced with what is probably the biggest decision Parliament has ever made. First of all let's set the record straight. In a democracy the winner takes all. If you don't vote, don't whinge if you don't like the result. So in the referendum a binary...

    I haven't expected much from Donny or Luton. Probably nothing! But after the turn around in our form recently, l am disappointed that we were tanked. That worries me more than the results. It's all very well being rewarded with the shirt, but it's equally important that the weaker links are...
