That's more like it. Let them score first. I don't like it when we score first. Get In!!!!!! Indeed I was very troubled and anxious at Oldham when we scored first. I was not happy so tonight has returned me to my untroubled best supporting Rovers... normality returned! |

Crowd of 10,088 (41 away fans) is fantastic for an evening game. Well done to everyone who went along and to the club for their incentive to get people in.

Just back, like the 442 with wide men but we looked lacklustre in all honesty. Ellis right off his game. Sluggish movement and almost hiding. Doesn't help that he gets dogs abuse all of the time.
Leads played well, his cross for maths goal was exceptional. Once we step up the pace, sides can't hold us, I do understand even tough we are a fit side that you don't get to play like this for 90 mins.
Fleetwood are a good side as well. 40odd fans though come on!
Great result, back to 5th.

Bloody freebies nicked my spot on the West 😀 Danny L was my man of the match, but fair play to Monty. Not sure what Moore did tonight, which was a surprise. Deserved win and up to 5th. By the way, Kelle Roos was excellent and will hopefully have shut the booners up. Mint. |

It didn't look like anywhere near 10k. As for the game, a lot of huff and puff in the first half without looking particularly dangerous. Too many punts for the central defenders to gobble up. Until we scored I was fearing the worst. Once we scored there was only new team that was going to win the game as Fleetwood offered very little up front. Another tree points and up to fifth. Happy days.

Ellis absolutely awful' could not believe he stayed on the pitch so long.
Browner going berserk with the Lino was fabulous entertainment- he was really swearing at him which I thought was completely fair. Quite menacing with his new 'peaky blinder' hair cut.
Not half as good a match as Saturday but twice as good a result.
Well done and thank you to DC and the team

What was the real away crowd? There was clearly more than 41 on the 'away' terrace by half time.

Gaffers made a difference, gave them much more problems than Ellis and was a real presence.
Ellis hardly moved, no anctipaction and waited for the ball to come to him... such a frustrating player.
Monty and Leds joint MOTM for me.
Looked like Jermaine picked up an injury as soon as he came on?
Used the flanks and was liked watching a game from yesteryear with 2 wingers pinging in crosses...Gaffers may well have taken advantage if he had started.

Like our tenacity, second half shape and pressing opposition.
Leads my m o m.
Monty some brilliant footwork.
Roos couple of decent saves.
Gaff looked the business.
Ref competent.
Didn't like their time wasting on 31mins by keeps....and our falling over half claiming for penalty, complaining to ref....Ellis acted like a sulky baby.
A hard crafted 3points. Fleetwood are big, physical and can play. I like Hunter 22, Dempsey 34, Bond 15. Their Keeps handling, shaky.
Well organised, hassled us, I thought were well worth their first half lead.
Well done DC. We all thought there would be a change after halftime. There was - we increased tempo, found our passes and movement was more creating triangles.
Crowd subdued. Maybe the newbies don't know all the words?
Well guys/gals, we are in play offs after a third of season. By merit. I'd settle for that!
Haven't yet seen much in this division to frighten us. Bolton were good, but we had our chances.
It's all very encouraging..

Uwe Rosler watched a different second half to me from what he said "Fleetwood boss Uwe Rosler had no complaints, saying: "My players gave me everything.
"We started and finished the first half really well and there was nothing between the teams after the interval.
"We made two mistakes and didn't create enough in the second half. Playing here you accept that decisions will be influenced by the crowd.
"There is a good atmosphere around the place because Bristol Rovers are a club with momentum and their fans play a part for them, unfortunately for the opposition.
"Our aspirations are not to finish in the top two or top six this season. They are to stay in League One and get as many points as we can.
"We are still in the top 10 so I am not too disappointed."

I know C-S made the mistake but after that he was brilliant. So comfortable with the ball and knows how to pass. A class player. I suspect that will be a big learning step for him. I thought we played well against a Fleetwood side who were good and should have been 2-0 up. They will be wondering how they lost. They were Rovered! Once we started to play we were very good and they couldn't stop us. Danny L was my MOM.

frustrating again from Harrison, surprised to see his name on the team sheet given Gaffney was excellent Saturday and Ellis anything but, when he came on. The guy should have been staking a serious claim for that spot next to Taylor but was lacklustre throughout & that's being generous. Playing the statue really does make Leads & the wingers job a lot harder going forward, the lack of movement was there for all to see (from one half of the strike force) until the ginge came on.
Still, I thought Leads was excellent again, the beard brilliant, Montano definitely had one of his best games & Roos didn't looked troubled 1 single bit following the (unnecessary) flak that came his way Saturday.
As for the crowd, the blackthorn end was completely sold out, it was rammed on the east terrace and looked packed everywhere else (bar the away end) so no surprise the 10k was announced.
One cup tie and a mickey mouse run out in the next week, bring it on.

I was on the East terrace which was far more packed than Saturday. The stewards advised the people stood in the emergency exits that there was plenty of room in what is normally the away end. It appears that the 41 away supporters were all housed in the away tent and the terracing handed over to Gas.
I also saw Browner having a right pop at the Lino and it certainly was entertaining. The Lino was pretty awful by the way.
