The Joy of (Twenty-)Sixth? Rovers / Boxing Day

[TANGODANCER]

Good lad is our 'Birdy' in the advert...decked Millwalls Harry the Dog outside Ewood once by all accounts!
Anyway we're due to give you sorry lot a good pasting.
0-3 and a Merry Xmas.

Beware the Pratley thunderbolts.

Hopefully we shall be serving the chicken farmers a Turkey leftovers supper on Boxing Day!!

If I read DSB right (on the Millwall thread) one more clean sheet will be a club record.

I only dug back as far as 1913...

Not being greedy, even at Christmas, I'll settle for the longest run without conceding a goal for 100 years.

Rhodes is clearly the main threat (maybe Wheater's task?) and they are likely to be quick out of the blocks, given that's what worked for them v Charlton last week.

[thebish]

not conceding a goal for 100 years?? now that would be something!

[jaffka]

Gestede is their main threat.

Apologies but I'm not feeling confident about this one.

[Hoboh]

Gestede is their main threat.

Apologies but I'm not feeling confident about this one.

I'd say the main threat from the dingles is Campylobacter, bit of a dirty barsteward it seems!

[Enoch]

It's Christmas, turkeys will all be quivering wrecks.

from a bloke on the Blackburn forum re Emile & Eidur:

Agree totally mate...I've seen both of them in the last couple of weeks playing for notlob u21 in Leyland and both of them are unfit, eidur looks a bit overweight and they both have limited mobility even at that level. Our defence should be shot if either of these two scores.

Apparently Heskey has an excellent scoring record against them so they're all bricking it..

This is kinda where I'm at. Goal from E or E = me + town hall steps ... you know the rest

[Prufrock]

Well, Heskey has an excellent scoring record against them in the sense that he scored more goals against them than anyone else. That was still 8 in an almost 20 year career.

[Harry Genshaw]

Gestede is their main threat.

Apologies but I'm not feeling confident about this one.

Sorry to say, im with you on this Jaff. Our run has to end soon, they're a decent side this year and the games come too soon for our elderly front line imo. 0-2 loss

[Enoch]

Or maybe too late, Harry.

[Bijou Bob]

I'll take a point now but am expecting 0-1. A boring snuff out with late penalty for them.

[Jugs]

Christmas must have turned people into a pessimist

2-0 to the Whites!!

[plymouth wanderer]

Any news on C Davies for this one

[CrazyHorse]

1-0 to the Wanderers. And another record breaking clean sheet.

Aye but we both want to be soooooooooo wrong.

Come on you white men.
