Points West estimate it's £6,240, that's £6.30 for each minute played of the 14 players who participated. My experience of asking people to cough up is that there are always a few who don't want to and then it ends up with more rows than it's worth.

Rovers are 125-1 to go up at Bet365. 72 points could still do it.

Did a quick estimate based on form over the last 10 games and its
Playoffs Fleetwood Bradford Millwall 79 Southend 75 Then it's Oxford 71 Scunthorpe 68 Rovers 68 Rochdale 61.
But on just the last 5 games it's
Fleetwood Bradford Millwall 77 Rovers 71 Then it's Southend 70 Scunthorpe 68 Oxford 66 Rochdale 63

From the hi-lights for the penalty he was already into his dive outside the area. Toner makes sure Rovers and Bury will be playing each other next season.
If Sincs didn't appeal for the second he would have stayed on. Not quite sure if the linesman gave Toner the nod, he had the best view.

It would be great if we could push the crowds up - getting close to 11 K v Chesterfield !? - but can the club offer any incentives to swell the crowd ?? I agree. Quid a kid would help plus it brings in mums and dads to keep an eye on the little yobs. Last game will be a sell out. Win tuesday and other three home games you won't get in without an early bird, thats if they don't make them all ticket. There were about 3 championship games Saturday that did not reach 11,000 Burton, Preston, Wigan (unattractive opposition ) and two more who did not reach 12,000 Brentford and Barnsley

DC has reached his first target this season. 54 points beats PTs first season after promotion. His next target is 63 points, Rovers best finish in L1 since 99/00. After that it becomes an achievement.

Bad move, better defender than Hartley, better understanding with Locks than Clarke - Salter, was always advising and helping Leadbitter. Does this mean they are going to get Sweeney next season?

In the post match interview DC mentioned targets. Specifically 53 points which would equal 07/08 post PT promotion and 63 points which is the highest L1 total for 17 seasons. Worries me a bit.

They wouldn't be in the drop zone if they had let MT take the penalty. I wonder if MT has a get out clause if they are relegated, or is it a pay cut for him.

Sorry to be a killjoy but can we just talk about us? Hate it when our mood is dictated by their result. Doubt it, it's far too much fun. Misery likes company, that's why it's all about Johnson on Twentyman.

I have watched Ellis for a few years now, he has a good eye for goal, great ball skills and some tricks in his locker, he always looks ready to deliver a great pass or wonderful strike. For example on Saturday he leapt up to tap in from a cross which he did with a trick shot..... wonderful. The only issue is that he does all this in warm up and then the slightest bit of pressure or having to think quickly; all gone. He has become a very costly and ineffective luxury, other than at Northampton. The problem with that is 4 goals in one match, which we won without conceding. If he had scored 1 goal a game in the last 4 we would be 8 points better off! I think Geoff Bradford might have managed almost a goal a game but can't think of anyone else. Ellis is getting hammered but I've seen far worse. Wilf Smith when under no pressure turned and passed back to Jim Eadie in a Derby against the Sheeds at trashton, how he couldn't see Keith Fear who was stood in front of him I don't know, cost Rovers a win.

Gas just made 'Mastermind'.Contestant's subject was Tranmere Rovers.Q.Who captained Tranmere in the Daf Leyland final at Wembley against Bristol Rovers? Good omen as Scunthorpe never got mentioned. He didn't know it. I bet most on here would know who captained the Gas that day.

The Sheed have Burton at home and Blackburn away so the best result tonight is a Burton win.

Will Lansdown ("No one will speak of Rovers anymore") sack him? Reminds me of the film Little Big Man where General Custer, when warned about the imminent defeat and massacre of his army, decided saving them was not worth the reversal of a Custer decision.

Speed awareness course 20? If you drive through Glenfrome Road on your way to the Mem you stand a good chance of getting caught at 23mph or more.

How many Rovers pubs have closed? I can think of The Royal Archer The Farriers Arms, and the Station Master

It looks outside the box that's why the keeper went in with his feet, that's a free kick and red card, Ref is not prepared to punish it that much so he does nothing.

8500 (if I heard it correctly) 9043 Thought the ref was worse than that. 3 times he seemed to wait until it was clear there'd be no chance of getting advantage from a situation before signalling advantage. Did he miss an elbow from Wyke on Locks? Tom was complaining to the Ref after.
