A good run out result irrelevant. Thought Nichols looked decent and Gaffney looked sharp. Wouldn't be disappointed if we signed Christian Doidge as he has good physical presence and leads the line well. Thought our players looked slightly leggy throughout, which is probably down to a very hard training week in Portugal. Very glad FGR let us in covered end as it watered down most of the game. We still need a CF, LCB and a LM in my opinion.

Disappointing score today though to be perfectly frank this match came at least one day too early given that players didn't get home from Portugal until the early hours of the morning. It will be interesting to see if anyone comes in next week, there is much speculation about RS, if the rumour is true he will be one hell of an asset to the side.

Perhaps if I was a mind reader it would help as I how was I supposed to know the flight was delayed? Regardless flying home one day/playing the next is hardly the best of planning neither does playing Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday. Perhaps if you didn't make ill-informed assumptions it would help too.

Can we just leave the pre season arrangements to the real experts please... DC knows exactly what he is doing , is happy with the schedule and today our lads got another stage readier for the start of the season. The result is totally irrelevant! Does he? How many of us would have agreed to play in a football match today if we knew we weren't getting home until 3am this morning, why didn't we just ask FGR to put this game back 24 hours so we got some benefit out of the game? Players wise, DC needs to sort out the CH & LW positions so or later, plus 1 goal in our last 3 games suggests we're still lacking fire power upfront. f**k me moan moan moan

Results are meaningless at this time of year, if people cannot realise that I suggest they refrain from going and play Football manager on their X box, it is better to lose and DC realise that more recruitment is needed, post match says he wants four in, DC has it all covered, Frankie says Relax!

The flight was delayed, it wasn't scheduled to get in at that time. When the delay came through it would have been far too late to postpone the game. Use your loaf. It was delayed by 1 hour. The issue therefore still stands that a flight into airport at 12.30am, with transport to be made to various different areas, then an 11.30 start at Mem is highly unusual. Anyone can clearly see that. It doesn't mean people are against the club or have no clue about football.

Not surprising when the players got back from Portugal 1:30 this morning. Are we allowed to say that that is pre poor planning in anyone's language?
certainly trying to fit a lot in this pre-season. Your not allowed to say that on here because it implies that you are being critical of the regime/owner/manager which is forbidden on this forum. Its like blogging against wal-mart on social media really,even if your blog is true they will sack you.

Best striker on the pitch today was doidge,made all the rovers strikers look lightweight and poor on this particular day even though he missed an open goal.

Back from the boozer early tonight then BB ? You say that to me not long after you give another poster a torrent of foul mouthed abuse for expressing an opinion. Sad and hypocritical are words that spring to mind when reading your post.

WTF is a belter? Someone who belts? It works like this,a poster puts "a belter" then suddenly all the other sheep say it The other one is "lady garden" one poster uses it and all of a sudden its a common word used by everyone. Its baaaaaaa bad thing but thats how it is.

Anyone can clearly see that. It doesn't mean people are against the club or have no clue about football. Home by 2am and then 7/8 hours kip with plenty of time to get to the Mem. Personally I don't see how that's 'highly unusual' but then I've never been involved in the arranging of a pre-season schedule for a professional football club so maybe I'm wrong. I'm well aware of how long the delay was. Whether or not the hour is enough for a significant impact on today's performance, who knows? What irks me is that I do know that of Darrell Clarke's previous three pre-season programmes as Bristol Rovers' manager, 2 have preceded promotion and one has preceded our highest league finish in nearly 20 years. I think we can cut him some slack, no?

If a red house is made out of red bricks, a yellow house is made out of yellow bricks, then what's a greenhouse made of? and all that...

First time I've been on here for a few days and it's just the same kind of School play ground crap that was on here last time. I used to use this forum because I could find out things about our club that I probably couldn't from the official club website and there were interesting debates that I felt I could get involved in but those days seem to be gone now. Shame.
