    Bristol Rovers v Bradford

    Would say that was a good game for the neutral. Bradford one of the better teams I've seen this season. Big and physical but with good ability. Law bossed the game 2nd half and number 7 was one of the best players I've seen down here this season. We came out of the blocks quickly and had a host...

    Bristol Rovers v Bradford

    Understandable to say goals might be an issue for us, but if you take in account players leaving you also have to account the ones who have come in who (touch wood) have made us looked substancially more stable at the back. Keeper, RB, 2 CB's and a LB have come in and although only keeper, RB...

    We'll miss Taylor's goals, obviously. Fortunately, with three defenders and a keeper in, we seem to be a lot stronger in the defensive area, which has been drastically needed. To be honest, i have a feeling we wouldn't have been in play offs with or without Taylor, so wether it bothers me too...

    The standard of this league

    I can only judge on what I personally have seen. I would say that the standard is far superior than L2. Mainly based on the ruthlessness of some teams. Last season, we had one of the better defensive units in the league. This year we have one of the worst in L1 and we have been on the end of a...

    Match thread 24th-29th includes cup games.

    Very good, wasn't much to deal with but won everything and had one cleared off the line from a corner. A very solid debut and looked what we need. Swindon, I mean this with due respect as I don't want it to seem a rival post, I really think you're down unless Williams goes. Today we just...

    Match thread 24th-29th includes cup games.

    Doesnt this fixture just bring out the best in both sets of fans? I can imagine the early kickoff will help things somewhat though. Surprised Swindon haven't sold out the tickets yet, not loads left I believe but still. As for the game, guaranteed late goal by Charlie Colkett for a Swindon win.

    Match Day Gas vs Teyn

    Not yet. We still need a few additions and the defence has leaked goals. Could be singing a different tune at the end of Jan though. Remarkable that the team that started today all played for us in the conference.

    Match Day Gas vs Teyn

    Blimey, what has Page done to that Northampton side?! I know they had injuries today, but that team was superb last season. I actually think from about 33 minutes onwards we were in absolute cruise control, didn't get out of second gear and still won in that time 1-0, it genuinely looked as if...

    Match Day Charlton v Br15tol Rovers

    Honestly was predictable at the start. I know DC prefers to rotate and it's worked very very well for us but 6 changes and most being ressies was only going to end up badly.

    Match Day Charlton v Br15tol Rovers

    That last post wasn't by "benfcht" it was by me, no idea what the hell happened there!

    Gas vs Weepy Winkleman's Wet Farts.

    With today's lineup we'll struggle, must be some players knackered after ET on tues.

    Rovers vs Fleetwood

    7 of the starting 11 last night played for us in the conference, as well as one of the subs.

    Rovers vs Fleetwood

    I believe it's 19 points picked up this season from losing positions. It's obvious what it stems from. It's Darrell Clarke. I've never seen a group of players with a mentality stamped on them so much. we definitely have our limitations but there won't be many who can work as hard as this lot...

    Gas vs Posh

    You only have to tell by Peterborough reactions at the end of the game there that that was one of the biggest robberies I can remember of reason times. Unbelievable.

    MK Dons vs Rovers

    We've decided giving teams a 1 goal head start was too easy, so let MK have two. To be honest, DC's interview postmatch gives the notion he's ripped into the players and they were all embarrassed by their performance. He said we were nowhere near good enough and that we've nicked a point. But...

    Gas and Gills

    I don't know what Dack has done this year, but even forgetting his reputation I thought he stood head and shoulders above Gills other players so I wouldn't slate him too much mate. The shoehorning big budget players into a team does seem like the problem though and I wasn't the only one to say...

    Gas and Gills

    The less said about the first half the better, no quality and uneventful for both sides. Second half, Rovers came out the better and had a few chances but didn't convert, then Gills scored off a really scrappy but poorly defended set piece where every defender got sucked in near post. Got to...

    Gas and Gills

    Gillingham have had a little slump in form lately but any team with the likes of Dack and JET at league 1 are going to be a threat. We have one glaring, obvious issue at the moment in that we keep letting teams go one nil up. I can see the same happening with a JET thunderbolt before us getting...

    Match Day The Matty Taylor Derby

    No animosity from me towards O'Toole. Great when he first arrived, average to good during the beginning of the relegation season finally ending completely awful, also a terrible influence to some young players. But, relegation was something that was desperately needed to hit rock bottom and was...

    Match Day Blades vs Gas

    Before I moan, I'm going to say the Easter challenge is one of the most justifyable red cards i've seen. He could have been sent off twice for it. But having watched the highlights, the referee has dropped two clangers for me. Definitely a foul leading up to the United goal on Ellis Harrison...
