On this week's GasCast, Max and Mets are joined by James Piercy from the Bristol Post. They start with some in depth talk about the takeover story, which the Post broke a few weeks ago, and discuss when Rovers fans can expect to hear more news. There's lot of talk about the new 3-5-2 formation which has seen Rovers pick up several impressive home wins and gained more support for manager Graham Coughlan. The talismanic Josh Hare, calming influence of Tony Craig, and scapegoat turned superstar Ed Upson are the main points of discussion in this weeks team review. The lads also talk about Matty Taylor's greatly anticipated return to the Memorial Stadium, and Mets doesn't hold back on his thoughts on the Snake. The player in focus this week is Tom Nichols, and Max is fully back on the bandwagon. listen.gascastpodcast.co.uk/276671/1617142-nichols-island

I wouldn't hold your breath. Jevans was on radio 4 this morning saying the EFL don't regulate clubs they just organise the competition. Said Dale bought an asset and that the EFL couldn't do anything to make him run the club properly. As far as I know there isn't anything in the EFL rules saying they have to compensate clubs for a team not being able to fulfil their fixtures. The problem gets more complicated with Bolton as they have played some fixtures. If they went out of business the clubs that have played them at home would then have the extra revenue and thus an advantage over the rest of the teams in the league.Its an absolute mess. Not to mention points on the board from beating a bunch of 17 year olds 5-0 as well. For example, what happens if Tranmere pip us to safety by two points come May? Or even worse on goal difference!

Yes and they seemed to be able to get an overload of players on that flank. They were targeting that all game, it's the major drawback of playing with wingbacks. Poor Tom Davies was knackered from covering on that side, he did a hell of a job. It happened especially when we switched to 3-4-1-2 as the midfield was a bit narrower. You could see GC making the wing backs push onto their full backs so Alfie and Tom had a hell of a job covering a large amount of space. Fair play to them they did it well.

I would imagine the EFL will compensate all clubs for loss of revenue caused by their inability to organise a simple league competition. The cheque will no doubt be in the post I wouldn't hold your breath. Jevans was on radio 4 this morning saying the EFL don't regulate clubs they just organise the competition.

Looked very dismayed at not getting game time at the final whistle this evening. Would not be surprised to see him off soon. Was surprised to see Rodman on instead of him as he came on behind the strikers. I'd ship him out if we can. I think we look better without him in the team.

Looks like Bury are gone then. Such a shame.
For all the amount we moan about Rovers at least we have a club to watch tonight. Imagine getting up on a Saturday and having nothing to do.

A pretty good descision from the police and club. Obviously there will be an atmosphere and there was trouble at Tinto lounge last year. Amnesty for plastic snakes has cracked me up though But surely if that was a concern the match should have been made all ticket form Day 1 not after Oxford signed MT? As far as these comments, I think the club has lost the plot as how can carrying a plastic snake into the ground incite "hatred or abuse"? "Supporters are reminded that any items that may incite hatred or abuse cannot be brought into the stadium and amnesty bins will be placed around the entrances for these to be disposed of before entrance to the ground will be permitted" Yeah agree this should have probably been all ticket after last year, but MT signing definitely ramps up the chances of trouble so better late than never. Thats the regulation they are quoting. They have to warn supporters. I doubt anyone will be offended by a plastic snake, but they have to do it by the book or risk the wrath of the FA if it kicks off over one.

I was much happier with Jaakkola catching rather than punching last night. Helps everyone out. Especially considering his distribution is pretty decent.

Looks all a bit professional! Except for the Nichols starting up front shout! I'm ready to eat my hat, but he should be nowhere near the team
