Perhaps the gaffer sees Bilongo as another good option for left of the front 3 aswell as wing back.
If Brown leaves and we sign another left back that gives us great options to use him further up in a few different formations.

That tackle was as good as a goal. A bit concerning that they had that much space when they had to attack after going 1 down Sorry nicked this from the Gas Guzzlers forum but thought it was good. To the tune of the Baddiel and Skinner song- And that tackle from Moore And when Bilongo scored And the Mem was bouncing..... One Pirate on the shirt Watney Cup still gleaming 13 years of hurt (since an opening day home win?) Never stop me dreaming (of Irene) Don’t give up your day job just yet. |

Honestly. I composed an absolute nailed on masterpiece about John-Joe O'Toole some years back and not one b@stard even gave it a like. I'm still sulking now, not that you'd be able to tell. |

We don't have the Watney Cup anymore. For some Sh1t reason we gavevitbto Derby County It was Derby's to keep. We borrowed it for a bit then they didn't bother asking for it back for a while. Ask the BRFC history experts, they did explain but I can't remember the specifics. |

Clinton Mola, really excited by this guy. Won everything in the air and looked to move the ball forward when he had the chance. Can't believe Reading let him go? Blank slate for Wilson, he was different class. Such an exciting back 3 with Taylor and Forbes making up 5 to chose from. What a breath of fresh air Promise is, such a different kind of threat to what we've had in recent years, will only get better as he gets fitter. Couldnt fault the effort of any of those players on the pitch and the gasheads responded. Going to be a tough season but we've got a group we can get behind every week. Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man And so is Mola Mo-Mo-Mo-Mo-Mola Mo-Mo-Mo-Mo-Mola |

Gas songs sung the last few yrs has been pretty pathetic. Hardly any new decent songs , surely the younger ones can come up with a few original songs we can get behind. Remember there being loads in the past.

Remember there being loads in the past. Used to have some really creative ones from years gone by. The younguns are loud but only sing 2 songs. |

How do you like it?” at the away fans. Maybe next time. |

"when the red red Robin comes bob bob bobbing along" shoot the b"stard.
"If I had the wings of a sparrow..if I had the arse of a crow I'd fly over Ashton tomorrow"

88 ariel battles according to bbc stats. Almost 1 a minute. Certainly a known element of Northamptons play. I hope were able to get on the deck a bit more and play through teams slightly more going forward.

I hope were able to get on the deck a bit more and play through teams slightly more going forward. definitely, but even with that Northampton had by far the lowest XG (.2 something) in the division on saturday. Shows how well we coped, we all know they would have scored from a free kick or corner with previous Rovers teams! |

Anyone in the south stand - any improvements to the concourse / facilities yet? I sat in it for the first time, was impressed with the view although the sun was an issue from the front seats. As regards any concourse improvements, I doubt it! Toilets just a portaloo and nowhere enough provision for drinks at half time. I work in catering, and it’s really not rocket science to think ahead and have drinks ready for sale. Even a separate stall only selling water/soft drinks would have yielded a tidy profit. I was hoping to get my young lad a drink but the queue went round the block and up into the west terrace! Madness. And this was with the stand only, what, just over half full? Club really need to look much more closely at catering this season, they are missing a trick and serious cash by being so useless!! UTG |
