    Cautiously optimistic today, could this be the start of eating into that 50 point hill?

    We live in hope

    Following the commentary on I follow and a red card appears to have been given to Conor Shaughnessy in the first minute
    Burton 0 - 1 Rovers Evans 4th minute
    Think todays ref was the one that sent Coutts off in added time last season

    Burton 0 - 2 Rovers Connolly 12th minute

    Hopefully an opportunity for us to improve our goal difference as we sound all over them.

    The number of shots or headers we have had must be in double figures and we didn't say that to often last season

    Burton 0 - 3 Aaron Collins 40th minute

    Feet up make a cuppa, pour another glass. Nothing to see here job done. You got tp ask how you can get sent off in less than a minute. I expect the Manager will. If I was their man I would have showered and fecked off rapidly.

    They lost heavily last week but as we are short on players and that we've never won at Burton, I thought we would lose today. Thought Burton would want to fix last weeks result. But wow. 4-0. Would be great to keep going to get a good goal difference sorted early. But would understand if we rest players for midweek.

    Powell, Ahadme and Castro on Onyago, Smith and Adeboyejo 62nd minute, Butcher booked 64th minute 65th minute Whelan replaces Finley

    Luke Thomas scores for Barnsley, Connor Taylor starts for Stoke and Billy is on the bench for Newcastle.

    Three players massively improved by a season with the Gas.

    71st minute Whelan booked

    If it is still 4 - 0 or better at 80 minutes I would like to see Greenslade and Lawrence given game time

    72 nd minute Saunders on for Gordon

    89th minute Kilgour and Lawrence on Loft and Evans off

    Lawrence's debut

    Just looked at the table up to 9th

    And it's all over now Burton 0 - 4 Rovers

    FGR 1 - 2 Ipswich 94th minute Exeter 4 - 0 Port Vale, City 2 - 3 Sunderland

    How many goals do you reckon Collins could get this season? Could be around the thirty mark. Good job he signed a long contract!
