It’s true that FGR are struggling for form and have a busy April. Teams around us are not consistent. Some of us have waited over ten years for this ground breaking thread stuff to actually come true.
Some are beginning to believe that our confidence and talent might well take us all the way to the Champions spot. Win today and some of us dreaming will start to see the dream come true.
For sure, where we were and where we could be at end of season might well be ground breaking.

Could have got 100/1 on skybet before todays game. Other sites had us at about 66/1.
We were 200/1 a week or so back
Free money 😄

Buses are packed. Goodnight Irene is being sung out loud.
Champions? Could it happen? I feel it might.
One thing we know is that this team will give it a good go and that is all we ask.

Who would want to play us in the play offs let alone Wembley with 40k gas up there
Autos for me, I’ll take 3rd but I do believe the great FGR 2022 choke isn’t over yet….

Performance wise I doubt the likes of Swindon, PV and Mansfield would worry too much as we'd probably be all on a similar run of form. I just hope we don't have to play Northampton over two legs after yesterday's rugby match. |

Personally, I think we would beat Northampton, although i wish Barton hadn't wound them up after yesterdays game. The best team I've seen against us this season, by a mile, were Swindon in the home game, although now we are playing better and they are worse.
Onwards and upwards.

I firmly believe that we are the best team in the division. I think we can achieve 2nd.

These guys in the quarters are , from James at the back to Aaron up top, there isn't a weak link between them, we can all dream including me, but we are talking gas here, seen some dross over the years, let's bask and enjoy these times, they don't come around too often, let's keep our feet on the ground.
To come off cloud nine i keep reminding myself of the worst players to have worn the shirt over the years.
Malcom Daylrymple GK in the 70's
Andy Spring, RIP.
Jeremy Ifel, in from Swindon.
Gary Kenneth, in from Weatherspoons.
Derek Riorden, again in from Weatherspoons.
Andy Bond, loan from Colchester.
Micky Evans, in from Plymouth.
Dom Blizzard, now making a living as an actor.
Stefan Payne, wum from Shrewsbury.
Chris Zebroski, in from Dartmoor.
Kyle Bennet in from Portsmouth.
UTG.

I am the first to admit I was very much in the Barton out camp before Christmas. We seemed short of ideas all over the pitch, leaky at the back and not scoring enough.
But now? Wow. The last few weeks I’ve been thinking we stand a good chance of the play offs but after yesterday, I really do think we could do even better.
We have a squad of players full of passion, a fantastic defence and keeper and whilst the goals may not be flooding in, some of our fluid attacking play has been such a joy to watch and some of the most exciting from a Rovers team in recent years.
We still have some very tough games coming up but with this team, I’m starting to believe that anything is possible.

Flowing football full of excitement and a real feeling that we can win any match in front of us. I’m as motivated as the next fan and always aimed high for this club. The turnaround in our fortune has been remarkable. There are dreamers to the right and to the left and now we have a bunch of players that we can believe in. Such exciting times for all of us. Keep believing Rovers 12th Man |

FGR have picked up just 11 points in the last 10 games . Which sounds poor.
However if they continue on that form they will end the season on 80 points. Possibly enough to be promoted directly.
If their form picks up even just a little the chances are they will be champions.
Even if their form drops they will likely still make the playoffs.
So if FGRs form remained poor and they dropped to a playoff place they would be the team you would want in the semi's.

Interesting question from Facebook. Odds on all 3 automatic promotion spots being taken by Rovers? FG Rovers, Tranmere Rovers, Bristol Rovers.

“The unthinkable becomes thinkable when you start thinking it is”.
Just brilliant leadership from Joey. He and this team believed they could climb this mountain. So many of us have waited for so long for these moments.
If any team slips up our momentum will power us through.

Most teams in the top 8 seem to have similar momentum/current form at the moment?
