Yeah only here for the 83 season I think. 

Unfortunately I can't see us getting the win tomorrow, Rovers are a good side and don't seem to have a bad game in them. They'll start fast and if don't match them it could be game over by half time.


Think they'll look to exploit our weaknesses on the edges with our centres and second rows not being great.


Can see JC going big to start with a big bench and hopefully try and batter them through the middle, errors and penalties will be key.

They'll be motivated without a doubt but I don't think it'll be enough. Realistically we need Rovers to have an off day which they've rarely done in the last couple of seasons. They have their own motivation in that it'll be a big step towards ending their trophy drought.


Hopefully it won't be another home derby humiliation and we get through unscathed with a tough run of games coming up in the league.

I've not looked forward to a derby for some time like i am for tomorrow. I'd be saying the same if this was the Good Friday game and we didn't have them tomorrow. The fact it is the cup, my first cup derby, makes all the more exciting. So long as we show the resilience we've seen this season I'll keep the faith we can win.

Accept now we're gonna lose and enjoy the occasion.

Well here it is. Heart always says FC but head says Dobbins .....In fairness they are the better team and should win. But upsets happen .......Just hope people don't go overboard if we get beat..... We still on a upward curve .....Right am off ....COYH

I think the tramps will have to have an off day for us to have a chance, we're stronger in the forwards but they'll have us on toast on the edges and they usually kill us with their play the ball speed. 


If we both play well unfortunately they'll probably win.

Another year or two and we'll be top dogs again
