It's as windy as you like here in Frenchay (and I don't mean just me). What's the ruling on a match going ahead, ball has to be static? You got all your folding gear tied down bags? I am not sure how the ref would view strong winds but as the Blackpool game went ahead I can’t see tonight being in doubt. Bugger. Was looking for an excuse to not go.

I still have tickets for the abandoned game, do we still use these to get in or we got to swap? Sorry to sound stupid I don't think its a stupid question. Strangely they don't mention this on the tickets news on the 'official': www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2020/march/sunderland-ticket-details/This the ticket number I've got 0117 952 4001 I'd give a call thanks mate,did try ringing but straight to voicemail. I did see back on website in November that tickets remain valid for the rearranged game.

If I see us working hard, trying positive things, not looking clueless and not making silly mistakes I'll be happy regardless of the result. There were a few small signs of this 10 games ago but all this seems to have faded in the past few weeks

If you live nearby just wait until the team line-up is announced. Usual suspects will be there, that will be a good enough reason...

Got a strange feeling we'll scrape a point tonight...no logic to it I know but stranger things have happened. Law of averages...even the worst teams pick up a point or three sometimes.
Must admit for first time in 55 years, I really don't care what the result is tonight. BG has managed to create a level of apathy that even Graydon, Buckle and McGee could not achieve.
I'll watch on ifollow as can't be arsed to drive 120 miles tonight.

I know, but it's the Rovers isn't it.

Sunderland really aren’t that good, they are trading on being a big club atm. I hope we don’t show them too much respect. UTG!

We showed Southend too much respect. 'played with fear' according to Mr Garner. What hope against decent opposition?

You can make up poor excuses to not go out for a beer with Mates, not go to family events wtc without feeling any guilt or remorse whatsoever, but drop not going to the Rovers on a sh**ty Tuesday night when you're destined to spend 2 hours wondering why the hell you're there, and the guilt kicks in. We must be mad.

Very true mate.
Although if Ben Garner wants to give tonight a miss I wont hold it against him. Maybe do a pre match draw to manage the team for a night, couldn't be any worse.

Interesting to hear Garner in his pressie saying he's "not looking down the table".... Comforting.... Not.... Every Rovers fan will be checking the Tranmere result. If Garner isn't he's an idiot. Complete waste of time checking other results for a manager,just concentrate on what your team are doing not on stuff you cannot control.

Did you say draw? I'd take that right now.

Garner should do what GC did and have his 'own' L1 table and maybe it will start to sink in.
Apparently Garner said that if he left the club now, it would be in a better position as when he first came in? ok well you have brought in unfit players and the best signing is on loan....
