After Tuesday, my enthusiasm bubble is well and truly burst and another performance like that will undoubtedly result in more dropped points. It seems we are currently a "hot and cold" team so in theory, today we should be hot. I really hope so as my enthusiasm for these 4:00am starts is waining fast. After yet another failed prediction in the last match thread I'm hoping to maintain my reputation by going for a 0-1 loss. UTG

At about 2.15, I shall be leaving a nice warm pub and my nice warm ( baffled, non football supporting ) friends, to watch the game. I sincerely hope for a better performance and a more positive result, than Tuesday evening. Got to admit, I haven`t a clue what to expect. At least some sunshine is forecast.

Currently out in WA where todays temp is 43C ( 109.4 in old dosh ) and will be tuning in keenly at 11pm local time to listen to this afternoon’s proceedings. Surely we can’t play as bad two games on the trot so I am going for a Rovers win purely because I am sure that they all had the proverbial rocket shot up their derrière’s after the Fleetwood encounter ! 😀

Bookies generally: Gas win 4-6 Draw 14-5 Burton win 4-1 Given Rovers up & down form 4-6 looks a bit skinny. But I agree that MT must have given them a rocket after the last performance. Prediction: Gas 2-1.

Here in n w bris, the sun comes out.... it's just like us to go and put on a sterling performance.
We have to coach around teams physically bullying us and man marking....we need a more upbeat performance and creativity. We also need some sort of consistency in defence. All these things are impossible or difficult, but Burton won't give any measures..
Interesting encounter on how we respond to the dire performance, from the excellent performance before.
Surely it's our turn to win?! Gas 2-1. Costa fella to score. Unfortunately, some egg chasing sport taking over our pubs on final whistle! Booooo!
Out in a minute on the Road, look forward to seeing some of you with a glass of fermented crushed apple exudate, or more, purchased with cash. Remember that? A bit like consistent form, different era ...

Thought Sinclair would feature but Brown needs to up his game.

Interesting comments earlier about the pitch being cut up from midweek and still watering it! Surely our style and players suits a firmer pitch.....

Not wishing to come across as all Mr Morose but so far this is as bad as Tuesday.
Although we're not losing...which is an improvement.

Rovers close, livened up a bit! Brookman - 'Brown, air shot!' then Evans shot saved.
