I'm glad Rovers won yesterday. It should avoid any over-confidence on our players' part after Friday.

I think it will be a close game.

I'm hoping for a rovers win but in a way won't be too surprised with a big loss. All the good victories we've had have really been papering over the cracks.

Any one who thinks it really does need to have a reality check,IMO posts suggesting a spanking for kr are doing sandercocks team talk for him.
They have already kicked our butt once,they also have already beaten wire and would be level on points with a victory some of our fans really do set us up for a mighty fall sometimes.

Should be a good game and pretty free flowing I reckon. Likely to be one of the best games of the weekend IMO

I'd of bin more confident on saturday if rovers had lost against wakey

both teams attack well, ours is really starting to resemble how we were with Barnett in the team, i think our defence will dominate and our new fluent attack we seem to be deveolping will win it for us, if we'd had any sort of attacking play on good friday we'd have won that day too, they weren't better we were just god dammed awful and gifted them the game! In my opinion of course!

Just by not being as awful as us is being better.

I suspect a few rovers fans will have bookmarked this thread should the result go their way on Saturday.

Why? it was started by a Rovers fan and the general consensus is form books go out the window during a derby.

Why? Because if there was a similar thread on their forum & we went on to beat them no doubt many of the people off this forum would go onto that gloating & bringing up old quotes from previous posts. Just a guess though, suppose we'll find out on Saturday night.

We all do that anyway its all part of the banter. I was just curious as to why you thought people would bookmark this thread in particular when their's nothing in it really. That's all. As you say we'll find out Saturday.

Ah I see where your coming from probably the wrong choice of words on my part. Maybe not bookmarked but i can see this thread getting plenty of posts come Saturday depending on the result.

As you say its just part of the banter, lets just hope its us doing the gloating over there

I wouldn't, stops us being complacent.

Rovers will take a lot from that 2nd half performance against Wakey, without a doubt they can be dangerous, they can also be bl00dy awful, expect it to be the former on Saturday and George is looking lively for them. Still think we will win but not comfortably.
