Just seen this tweet from Dover..... "This weekend 5 years ago, Bristol Rovers were playing Norwich in League One - we were away at Worcester City. Tomorrow, we face each other."
If we win today then we would have won 6 home league games in a row. Last time we did this was in 1999/00 season: 27th Nov 1999 Vs Luton. W 3-0 11th Dec 1999 Vs Colchester. W 2-1 26th Dec 1999 Vs Millwall. W 1-0 3rd Jan 1999 Vs Cambridge. W 1-0 15th Jan 1999 Vs Gillingham. W 2-1 29th Jan 2000 Vs Wrexham. W 3-1
We should win both, but it would be wrong to underestimate either Dover or Dartford. By the way, Jason Roberts scored six in that run, Jamie Cureton scored two, while Mark Walters, Andy Thomson and Rob Trees all got one each. Lomana LuaLua scored for Colchester, Iffy Onoura for Gillingham and Neil Roberts for Wrexham.
Rovers Line Up: Puddy, Lockyer, Trotman, Parkes, Brown, Gosling, Sinclair, Mansell (C), Martin, Cunnington, Taylor. Substitutes: Preston, McChrystal, Monkhouse, Harrison, White
Jesus Christ we sound poor - it's like a freakin' circus in our defence. Dover have hit the woodwork twice already!
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rovers 1 Dover 0 Cunnington slots in from 8 yards!!!!
Home looking after the kids as my wife's away for the weekend It's all Rovers at the moment - we've had several chances to go 2 up. Harrison and Monkhouse on for Cunnington and Gosling.
