If they hadn't scored right on half time we would have won 3-1. Have you ever actually played football? Why? Does having ever played football change the fact that if there hadn't been more than a minute extra time we'd have drawn 2 - 2? Saying that about them scoring before half time isn't an ascertainable fact - what I'm saying is. Well if you have ever played the game I suspect your colleagues would have got fed up with you only playing 89 minutes each week because you didn't think the last minute counted. As they didn't score in the second half it certainly is an ascertainable fact.

What are you yibber-yabbering about? Someone else (Bamber?) referred to us sneaking a win. Gaz said we didn't. I think what I'm doing is pointing out the obvious - clearly we did because without Ellis's goal ... how can I put this in it's simplest terms ... we wouldn't have won! The score would have been 2 - 2 which, last I checked was not a winning scoreline. If my aunt had balls she'd have been my uncle..........that's what I'm yibber yabbering about. Exactly and if the big ref in the sky blows the whistle for full time on your aunt before she has a s3x change she'll always be your aunt. But if she has gender reassignment surgery completed in the last seconds of her life she'll have snuck into heaven as your uncle. Saying she was blokeish for a woman right up until that point is neither here nor there - it was the last minute change that mattered.

"So if we hadn't scored in the last minute we would have won" Like I said in my post, a game is over 90mins it doesn't matter when you score, 1st 35th or 90th. Just because we score in the 90th doesn't make it "sneaky" If we had gone 3-0 up & ended up winning 3-2 would you still be saying it was a sneaky win? It does matter if you score in the 1st, 35th or 90th minute because errr ... we didn't score in the 1st or 35th; we scored in the 90th (plus) minute and if we hadn't we wouldn't have won the game, we would've drawn ... not ... ummm, ... won. Are you ok? We won - f**k all else matters!

After the last few years, I don't think I believe in 'luck' in football any more. For a while I bemoaned Rovers being 'unlucky' at times, but soon it becomes apparent that the team just aren't good enough. I thought we were incredibly unlucky not to score against Mansfield because we had 18 shots or something ridiculous, but when it comes down to it, we didn't score enough all season. So less about luck and more about lack of quality?
We showed great character on Saturday, many teams would have lost after losing a 2 goal lead at half time. Once again, the idea of our 'luck turning' popped into my head on Saturday - two 90th minute winners now this season. But maybe it's because we're fitter than the opposition, and maybe it's because we have a much stronger mentality than we have had in previous years.
No team is promoted or relegated purely on the basis of good or bad luck, that's for sure.

Imminently useful in the hands of someone who knows where the sharpener is yet easily disregarded to those who can't see past the present moment.

Now all you need to do is work on getting an open mind.

Perhaps had we lost to a last minute goal those not yet convinced about DC would've looked at the game as a whole & decided if it was unlucky, because overall we were the better team, or if it was deserved as we weren't the best team. Anyway the DC fans have already said Mildenhall was responsible for the 3 points so Harrison's last minute goal (is that the 3rd time under DC?) counts for nothing (allegedly)

I'm presuming you can't either?

Well I couldn't be happier. The club's debts are roughly the same as their only asset, we have been turned over twice by part time teams already this season, but none of that matters, we get the rub of the green and manage our 3rd away win in about 18 months. Clarke in and Higgs for president of the world.This is a thread about Clarke, why bring up Higgs and the financial situation? Maybe you are programmed to cancel out anything positive by bringing up a negative? Do you only MOAN? F*** me mate give it a bloody rest. The majority of fans are not interested in you diatribe. Yes we all know things could be better, we all want them to be better, but unless you have a lot of money to buy the club then we are stuck with what we have. So lets support the team and try and get out of this league.

The younger "game" generation all think they know how to run a football club, or a team. They comment on a player when they haven't seen them play. They predict results, they pick the team. All good stuff if you are playing a game. In the real world they know F*** all
