Bristol Rovers (a) match thread 17/08/16

[Burnden Paddock]

Sounds like we're trying to overplay it and walk the ball in. Just like last week.......

That's the trouble with Arsenal.

[TANGODANCER]

Montano gets an early mention then we clear but it's back with them. They are having too much attacking. Spearing makes an unwelcome comment (did he get a card there?) Moxey clears, Madine, Clough and....fouled. Home fans not happy. Free kick us and....Spearing?? and....ref blows up for shirt pulling to the annoyance of the mic lads. Beevers does well, Madine gets book for shirt-pulling and gets called "gormless"....Goal kick us off a Harris header. Their keeper sets them off and....Taylor, Moxey, Spearing, Clough, Madine and....Moxey does well and.....Madine wins a free kick. A lot of ref controversy and it should be interesting hearing about that from the match lads. Rover sally again and....some score mither. They come again and.....and....Howard does well. A walloper and....their keeper grabs and clears. Clark again (surely the most mentioned players all game?) Davies, Taylor, Moxey, Taylor and.....goal kick them. Attack lads as soon as we get a shout. Get that third goal.....Beever clears well. Clough gives one away 30 out and......mic man has a chat about scores and....and...Wilkinson replaces Madine who gets good words from the mic box. And....Clough blocks.

Thought Woolery might have been the one to replace Madine, but Clough goes and.....ooooh, can't find Wilkinson.

Bricking it now.

Eight to go (officially) and then here they come again and.....Wheater does well. Again they come and....Easter hammers one but Howards saves it. Wilkinson gets some arm wrestling in then......Davies has it and....passes it out for a throw them. Clark again, but Beevers is the man. We have a splash forth and....a long one goes nowhere except their keeper. Zico has a Knotty Ash rant then....they come again and......Whew....Easter hits the side netting. Come on lads, get a grip. Get some force and here it is.....Davies and they win a free, Moxey clears and they have a throw and.....still they come and we do need to be a bit dominant from the sound of it, I could be wrong. (Wilkinson waits in vain for Moxey) and.....Zak wins a corner. And, short and...it becomes a goal kick.....and now, with only a couple of mins left, sally again but we clear.
Now Howard grabs the ball and the added time is.....we don't know because the board isn't working. Moxey does well and...we break via Zak but can't finish it off. Spearing, Sinclair, Mark Davies heads for the corner and......Wilkinson shoots instead of passing to Zak who was in the clear. Twitch time.......

Are we there yet?

[Whookam]

Come on!

[TANGODANCER]

We're half an hour into the four minutes added and Spearing hacks one away. Wilkinson earns himself a booking and six hundred Bristolions crowd our box and Moxey clears.......and Vela just loses out. Spearing clears again and....YEEAHHHH

[twilight]

Yeeeeeessssss!!

[CrazyHorse]

Nice.

[Whookam]

Piss easy these away wins.

[TANGODANCER]

The lines to the Macron are blocked by calls from Madrid, Milan and Munich as the world asks....Who are these men?...Well, hopefully the match lads will tell the tale shortly....

[Bijou Bob]

A feckin great result. We sounded like we made much harder work of that than we needed to!

[TKIZ!]

Top of the League!! We're Bolton Wanderers, we're top of the league. The Landlord strikes again!!

[officer_dibble]

The only 100% record left in the football league

[TKIZ!]

I'd take a point now....

Wash your mouth out, Sir!!

Optimist says; Absolutely fantastic. Wins breed confidence. We will be especially difficult to beat at home. Bring on Fleetwood.

Pessimist in me says; Coventry won their first 3 games and ended up outside the playoffs. Don't get carried away.

Unbelievable Jeff. Cancel away trips to Wimbledon and Bristol after getting fecked off with 6 successive away defeats I've witnessed and look what happens.

My home record is OK so I'm not burning the ST.

[TKIZ!]

It was the no pun based match thread that did it!

[Worthy4England]

Good win. Us away v team not lost at home in a good while, got to be happy with three points.
