Doesn't work like that because the ball numbers are allocated in alphabetical order.... At a quick glance I think it would've been Millwall away (but not 100%)..... Millwall away eh? Quite fitting that as no one likes us (both) but we don’t care. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Jaakkola
Hughes -Grant/Kilgour/Taylor - Anderton
Anderson Clarke Finley Coutts
Hanlan/Thomas Nicholson/Collins
Pitman/ New Striker
This is the sort of team that JB had intentions to put out and probably still has those intentions. Could anybody honestly not see this team pushing for automatic promotion? This is why I will continue to support JB until at least Christmas.

Exactly how I feel. Managers and players come and go but most supporters are life long and I support Bristol Rovers football club regardless. We had managers Ive liked the personality of but didn’t like the football and we’ve had managers that I couldn’t stand listening too but enjoyed the results etc. DC had everything for 3 seasons but thats rare in football. I don’t really like Barton , I normally turn off his post match interviews around half way through and his results have been diabolical and think Barton will probably be gone before the end of the season for one reason or another but I’m going to keep supporting the club in the mean time. What is the BS that lifelong fans are not supporting the club because we are critical of Barton. This complete tosh. Personally I find Barton a repugnant individual, someone I wouldnt recommend being anywhere near the coaching and development. But the BoD saw fit to employee him. Now we concentrate on his performance, how he represents the club. Unfortunately for him he constructed himself a backdrop for that appraisal by slagging off previous managers, slagging off the players, slagging off previous coaching staff, slagging off the previous medics.Then slagging off the referees with every defeat. Which has been just about every game since he has been in charge. So as I do actually support the club, I want them to do well, to be proud of my support for BRFC. How on earth can I be proud of a club that employed such a repugnant man, a man who, post employment, gets charged with beating up his wife, a man who after 20 games in charge has the worse win / loss ratio in the history of all our recent managers. Its exactly because I do support the club that I expect, demand, better. I have been supporting BRFC since 1963. This is the first time I have felt my support wane. The first time that losing a game doesnt ruin my mood. Speaking to others in my age group, they feel the same. So excuse me for being angry. Well said 'Oldie'. You have encapsulated my feelings in one post.

Imo, need to give Joey 10 games, knee jerk reactions, are not going to help; although, I never thought I would watch Rovers get completely outplayed by a Cheltenham side at home. That said, I agree the missing players would certainly have made Rovers more competitive. Joey needs to sign a couple of experienced attackers asap, with Pitman out injured for another month, there appears to be no goals in the current starting 11.

DC had a poor start in the conference with arguably the biggest budget, yet he turned into the greatest manager of all time according to some gasheads...

Even taking into account the last 8 games in the league when DC took over from JW, his record after 20 games was W9 D3 L8 compared with JB's W3 D2 L15. In the Conference it was W7 D2 L3. The worst it ever got (Braintree away) was at that point W2 D2 L3.

Anyone know the attendance last night or is that off limits now? Not report anywhere so I contacted Dave Sams at the club who confirmed 2409.Langlais at 16 could well be the youngest Rovers player to play for the club in the competition. Born Bristol 4 Oct 2004 would be 17 till Oct. I know it was only a cup game but I expected more to be honest seeing that it was our 1st home competitive game since fans were allowed back.

I reckon it might have been pre match comments during the week, I almost went Tuesday but I have very little money after all my outgoings and when I read the team was probably not going to feature many of the first team that started on the Saturday I was put off. When the line up came out, I was frustrated cuz I thought we might see some fight and be in with a chance and thought that I wished I had actually gone... then after I was glad I didn't. Wonder if many felt similar - will be interesting to see what crowd is like on Saturday. What was it about 3.8k ST sold?

Especially as Cheltenham brought 348.
