When Warnock came in about 10 years ago we were in a similar position and he had an instant impact and we were challenging for play-offs a year later

We were hoping Adams would have the same impact but it was not to be

To be fair though the football we play isnt actually that bad but we just dont score when were on top

You was **** against us, just banging it up field, your corners and free kicks made it look like you was all over us, but you didn't force a save out of our keeper more than once..

I think you'll go down, which is a shame, but then maybe we can have Bogdanovic or Ched Evans off you, and bring them back into form :P

But your crowd get on the players backs even when it's 0-0, you are just like us, two big teams, struggling at the wrong end off the table, we have the resources to be up there, just not working out.
 
Chris Morgan - beast
Nick Montgomery - too good for Sheff U
Ched Evans - good player, but just not doing it?

what's going on?!

Morgans out for 9 months and it shows missed him at the back big time

Monty is slagged off by every single Sheff U fan. hes the only bloke on the pitch who gives 110%. too many missed place passes but despite that when he was out the other week it showed how much we missed him too

Evans shows glimpses in games in games but like you say not doing it
 
Today's already become known as the 'Perfect Day' by our lot, what with a convincing 4-1 away win to Coventry (moving us up to 14th) and a Rovers defeat at home that's seemingly put 'em on course for League 2 football next season.

As someone who attended our game, it wasn't in any way as convincing as it sounds and only great finishing, David James considerable ability and terrible Coventry luck spared it from being a different game entirely. And a Rovers relegation isn't something to be cheered if you take pride in local football.

Couldnt agree more on the bit about the fans

Scunthorpe away was awful you're not fit to wear the shirt etc.

Hows Jamie Ward doing at Derby btw |)

Hopefully we can avenge our horrific defeat against Preston with much needed win tonight. We need to keep up pressure on those above and try and further the gap between us and the teams below. It's a Tuesday night so I'm not hopeful...
 
bannan only on bench but Kilkenny (who he would have replaced probably) has scored for us. Now lets hope for a miracle that we can hang on
 
2-0 Leeds! Paynter scores his first goal for us :D

Leeds please don't bollocks this up :)
Preston 1-2 Leeds
 
Struggling to listen to the radio, so ****** nervous.

Keep it up Rovers!
 
It's a mircale.... We actually held onto a slender lead and even more amazingly we won on a Tuesday :D Results went our way as well, up to 5th and only 3 points off 2nd. It's all wide open again :D
 
Leeds up to the 5th place and 3 points from 2nd! Get da **** in! Cardiff losing atm, amazing!
 
Ipswich 1-3 Reading

Moved into 8th, 5 points off 6th. Look good on our form. Confident of Manchester City now. :D
 
The final whistle today summed up Stuart Campbell.....
As told by BBC Radio Bristol:

"The referee blows his whistle. Stuart Campbell sinks to his knees clutching the badge on his chest, he runs into the dugout and brings the whole bench, subs and coaching staff to the Rovers faithful and applauds them, and by the looks of think Richard, he'll be there for sometime repaying those fans who made the long trip up"

What a player. What a guy. What a MANAGER! :wub:
