It's played after every game, I love it, actually written by a gashead about The Gas! I like it as well It’s called “Tote End Boys” and was written by a chap called Ben Gunstone, who was a teacher in Bristol and a mate of Alain Whyte, the guitarist in Morrisey’s band after he left The Smiths and went solo. |

Good but not great and it's Palace's tradition that we've aped. I always liked it when they played Ken Dodd’s “Happiness” after we’d won. |

Think 'Tote End Boys' is a terrific Rovers song, the older you are the more the words probably resonate with you, both 'Glad All Over'( which along with 'Bits And Pieces' was frowned upon by pub landlords as it provoked table banging floor stamping out breaks by youngsters!) and 'Happiness' perfectly capture the feeling when Rovers Win! and i always find myself singing along when leaving the ground.

A, 2 or 3 million transfer move in offing after that game from Alfie. What’s it all about tbone. A month or so ago I wrote Kilgour wasn't good enough. On todays showing he's worth at least £2m! Think today he was particularly exceptional but without doubt, I was wrong. Delicious humble pie for me. Also, what a f**king debut from Day! My word. Re. Barrett, you have to assume its a medical issue?  ? If not its a disgrace. As a professional footballer, unless there's a medical reason his weight is a disgrace. Overall utterly brilliant performance. At the end of the day Sheff. Utd are a premiership team and we gave them one hell of a game. An utterly superb advert for the quality of L1 football - kept it on the deck and played some very slick passing at times. Well done Rovers - superb performance. Regarding Kilgour , players drift in and out of form. From his time at Rovers so far I’d say he’s progressed well and is now an a average league 1 defender. Yesterday he played very well and I think there’s more to come from him but I don’t expect performances like that every match because he’s still young and still learning. I expect all of our defenders to look better once we’ve got a good defensive midfielder in front of them, I think Upson is past his best and I don’t rate Grant as good enough for league 1 yet although like Kilgour he’s young and will probably improve. We’ve got the keeper situation sorted we now need to add another striker and a defensive midfield general. That’s not based on yesterday or any one game I’ve been saying it all season but if we can add those in this window then a top half finish is possible. If we don’t I fear we’ll be looking over our shoulders for the rest of the season. |

Ehmer needs to play at Centre back and the RB position needs to be addressed. Also a striker to partner Hanlon must be a priority. One thing that was very noticeable yesterday was the pace of the Sheffield forwards. Was it our guys are slow or is it that Premiership players are a lot faster ? I also think Day could be our next number 1. |

And our Tone shows that the dark arts aren’t dead yet, getting away with a cheeky push that would have been a stone-wall penalty with VAR! |

Nichols stand out performer - quote on the BBC (but not given MoM).
I only watched some of the game, and missed all the goals, but what a result!

Nichols was excellent today. Keowns comments spot on. When playing against better quality those deft touches show. Never been a bad footballer, Crawley just playing to his strengths
