Match Day Thread Bristol Rovers v Sunderland – Saturday 27th March - KO 15:00

Two tough games next. Wish we had an easier Easter

 

We’ll beat Oxford then Peterborough is a must not lose.

 

4 points awa Easter we are promoted

 

Well, their commentator would say that wouldn’t they?

 

i remember saying a couple of weeks afore the cup final that i had a feeling we would all come out of that next fortnight with big smiles on our faces (or words to that effect) ... i am not often right but i am happy i was this time and that is my last of any kind of prediction, getting too tense and i dont want to put the mockers on it.

jones makes a big difference to our play, hope he is back for the final 10

 

Don’t know, be a weird lie though wouldn’t it.

 

For sure

 

Your memory is selective.

Gooch provided a vital assist for Stewart, against accrington, last week.

 

It's clearly not strong enough!

 

The clocks gan forward by the way i am on the piss so i have lost an hour's drinking time lol, we can beat Hull and gan up nee worry !.

 

Its 2.45am real time, but only 1.45am drinking time, don't worry about it mate.

 

Read through his posts. I think it's more an anti-Sunderland agenda. Nothing positive at all.

 

A

 

You know daft little things which bode well, kind of from a players mentality and team spirit thing.

Loved seeing AOB asked about his celebration, and why he did a shark impression.

‘the gaffer told me to act like a shark on the pitch’

**** banter like that points to a happy dressing room, and one that’s very comfortable with the manager.

Also, I’m upgrading the goal from a shinner to a ‘magnificent piece of improvised finishing’

I’ve no evidence to support this, and don’t even believe it myself, just sounds better.

 

I'm bored. I want a match every day now. I can smell the winning post and promotion.

 

It was hardly a stress free tap in at Wembley either, great pass and a finish to match. Won us the damn thing.

 

It doesn't matter how they go in... its still a goal...

IMHO Bristol Rovers had more than matched us with aggression and purpose, but with Mcgeady's corner gently dropping near the penalty spot, O'Brien was unmarked the ball hit some part of his lower leg and bounced into the goal.

A truly great goal, which was significant in that we held position with Peterborough (who won, easily) and caught up with Hull, who drew.

A very important goal as I say, we keep scraping through, whilst not playing that well. Probably keeping our best for for the away games against Posh and Hull.

 

I'll continue - B

 

Obviously, to Bee or not to Bee

 

He's like you, mistaken and biased, although he isn't trying to start arguments and playing the victim.

'Slated' ffs

I didn't slate you, I said you were wrong and posted the facts ...

... their results against better teams are poor, very poor.

In all honesty most of the league is better than them hence their position.
