Hopefully Ben will get his first win as he completes his honeymoon period in charge today.
The pitch will be a tad better than the beach at Birkenhead or Blackpool sands I suspect.
Will Harries be used for first time or has Arthur Daly been passed fit to take his place ?
Will Tammy's young bro get some minutes ?
Will Ken Masters be spotted selling 50/50 tickets and sale the winner likely to be £850 to Bambi ?
I understand former Rovers favourite Christian Edwards will be guest at the match today.
Will Storm Dennis Rofe allow the temporary stands to be used and will Health & Safety prevent the match being played ?
Will we get our first home win in seven matches
Will we get our first win in 15 matches ?
Will we get a goal scorer other than a double barrelled name score a goal since Nichols at Ipswich ?
All will be revealed at 5ish |

I predict a 0-0 bore draw in horrendous conditions! (Dennis Rofe, born and bred Epping BTW)...

Feel sorry for the visiting fans.Few years ago ,think it was Bradford,a visiting supporter posted a video praising our friendly fans but added,'Bristol Rovers,you need to address the visiting fans facilities'. It really is abysmal how we expect them to stand in the rain with Stone age catering and toilet facilities.
Anyway.Hope we can actually score a few today and have a pleasant Sat Evening for the first time this year.Several Newbies still to debut.Come on Rovers,let's remember what it's like to win-please!!!!!!

I quite liked Storm Dennis Booth.
Wonder what happened to him after Udders?
Anyways...
1-1.
Probably 4-3-3.
Probably struggle again.
Probably hear the same old excuses, cue East side lino and ref.
Probably play the same formation next match.
Probably won't win again.
Probably be told to give more time.
Probably no one will ever question BG why is he persisting with this incoherent sh!te?
And I'll probably turn up again next home match.. 😫

Need an early goal (Gas that is) and hopefully push on, if it's 0-0 at half time, that will be the score at the final whistle.

All will be revealed at 5ish Tell you what Harry, if I see Ken stood out in this selling tickets I promise to buy 50 of them and if I win I'll hand the cash to you, in person, to donate to a charity of your choice. Back in the real world, if the game goes ahead, we'll win this 2-0. |

Been crap recently, Barça, mind. Not like us, winless in fourteen, then conceding on 2' at home vs Blackpool. Points for the 'ç', though. |

We are 1 down after two minutes.What a mess our club is in both on and off the field.Blackpool down to ten after a red card too.City also losing.We had nil shots on target first half!!!!

pool down to 10 men, 0-1 at HT, seem to be getting a bit more into it as the half went on, but NOT GOOD!!!

Blackpool handlng the conditions better, Rovers as poor as I have seen, hope to get out of jail 1-1.

Please do us a favour and resign if you don’t win today Ben. It’s going to require some honour on your part because the mugs in charge will let you loose til the end of the season and beyond otherwise.
Who am I kidding his after match interview will be like most managers under pressure: blame the ref and state confidence in his abilities to turn it round.

No pace, no urgency, no fluency, no nothing. Utter crap so far and sure to get worse when Blackpool score a couple more while we stand around in the wind picking our noses.
