Match Day Thread versus Bristol Rovers

Again. This must be the most played side this season so far. I would have preferred to have drawn the lowest of the low ranked sides left in the competition but we got this one. We can win it but this is one of those slippery slope jobs that you didn't want and then bites your arris. I'm going to look on the bright side for once and say we will win it not could. Having to wait till Sunday is worth another £12k I believe so this time I'll take that.

Game time for me is 6am on a Sunday morning ? Mmmm

1 - 1 ` penalty

 

Sarcevic penalty...1-1.....84 minutes.....game on.

 

Sarcevic another penalty...90+6 minutes...but its saved.

 

Replay it is then.

 

1-1...F/T.......nearly nearly nearly....to be honest Sarcevic didn't really hit it well.

 

I read that Bristol want the Ref to rescind the red card without them having to appeal. If he won't then they will appeal it. Saw it on the box. Looked like it was a penalty to me although not a hack down job. He was last man and if it was a penalty then it was a red card. Can't see the Ref cancelling that one. Also read that Lowe and their assistant manager had a ding dong on the touchline over words or rather name calling by the Bristol bloke. Cheat being one of the words used. Think Bristol were lucky that a penalty wasn't given much earlier than the first one after Mayor was brought down in the box. A much more clear cut penalty that the one he actually got. Replay could be tasty with the dug outs being so close.

 

Replay on BT Sport....moved to Tuesday 17th December....kick-off....7.30pm.
