Bristol Rovers (H) League 1 Tuesday 15/4/08.

[Duke]

Form Guide Rovers last 6 league games.

Huddersfield - home - lost 2-3
Swansea - away - drew 2-2
Yeovil - away - drew 0-0
Harllepool - home - drew - 0-0
Forest - away - drew 1-1
Bournemouth - away - lost 1-2

With games in hand over clubs around them the Pirates sitting 16th in league 1 on 49 points knowing that one more win would secure their league 1 status.
With our main play off rivals playing at Huddersfield on the same night , its another must win win game. but what ever happens on Tuesday the outcome of the appeal on Wednesday may finally put pay to our play off hopes.

2-0 home win, then its over to the FL.

[Four Oaks Saddler]

I agree, a must win (as they all are now).

With an atmoshere like the Tranmere, i'd back us for the win we're looking for.

Saddlers 2-0 Pirates

Mooney to get both goals

Attendance: 5,297 including 486 visitors.

[King Crimson]

Walsall will win.

I will be there.

There will be goals from Sonko and Betsy.

I will sing loudly.

[Magic Man Fan]

Mooney to get both goals

:shock: How many games have you been to lately? Are you expecting us to get four penalities?

:lol: :lol:

[Carneiro Is Not Leitao.]

An edgey 1-0 with a goal for Gerrard off a corner on the hour mark.

We'll only win because they'll have forgotten how to.

[Magic Man Fan]

:?

We've won the last two games with improved performances. Shame that level of performance was missing in the crucial games against Northampton, Brighton, Leeds and Southend.

Ahh, shame we had such a malnurished and young squad with no real experience of this sort of situation as well.

[Sadders]

Heart says 2-0
Head says 1-1

[WFC_Rob]

We'll win this one 2-0 with a goal in each half. Betsy and Mooney with the goals.

[tape66]

1-0 to us, Sonko to get the job done.

[Exile]

1-0 to us, Sonko to get the job done.

Has he got the contract to replace those CCTV cameras that got nicked? :lol:

I'll predict a tense match, with my fingernails gnawed to the bone as I listen, very quietly, at my work desk. About time we scored some, and a real possibility against a leaky Brizzle team.

3-1 us, coming back from a 0-1 half-time deficit. Ince to equalise with a goal kick. :D

[4143]

I predict: Match postponed due to future echoes.

[Dynamo Zuffle]

3-1 win to the Saddlers.

[big baz 1]

2-1 to the super saddlers

[Puddletown Tom]

2-1 to the Saddlers and leeds only to get a draw at Huddersfield to keep the playoff hopes alive :D

Then Leeds to get some points back the day after to end playoff hopes :x Hope I'm wrong but I get the feeling the arbitration panel are going to wimp out on this one.

[SaigonSaddler]

2-2 draw or 3-2 win :|

[Jorge14]

I'm a little worried about this one. Their position betrays the fact that they are a decent side. It'll be a tight game...I'm going with 2-1 or 1 each.

[Jorge14]

Ahh, shame we had such a malnurished and young squad with no real experience of this sort of situation as well.

"malnurished and young" - are you sure you are talking about Walsall's First Team squad, or are you a Channel 4 Executive promoting the next series of "Jamie's School Dinners"?

It is a shame that it was Dann and Fox we sold, because we replaced them in the starting line-up with about 650 first team appearences in Boertein and Roper. One thing Ian Roper certainly isn't is malnurished. :)

[Deano_Saddler]

2-0 to the saddlers

mooney & deeney.

That isn't to say the recent ( last two) games are going to bring consintency to the current squad. I obviously hope it does and we go on a 'briefer' run than the one earlier in the season, but there's been plenty of times in recent era's when one or two wins get people a lot more optimistic than necessary.

Yep, shame DD's squad building is poor and he doesn't use all of his budget available and the budget he does use he wastes on players we don't need.

[latviancheese]

our injury list looks worrying.

[Kiansmom]

Can't make this one as it's gym night (unless I can another mom to take him)

I'm going for a Walsall win 2-1

[priestley_saddler]

1-0, Betsy.

[BathSaddler]

1-1 draw. The local press down here are stating that Holmes "is expected to be in the starting line up, despite his injury on Saturday". I hope for a win, as usual, but Rovers are desperate for the points too - they reckon they need one more win to be definetly safe.

My sister is going to this one, her first match since 2004, and only her fourth match ever. I'm not sure she'll see a home win though.

[Whitti Steve]

I will be watching from the OAP stand tonight (with the sponsors - so expect a dodgy MOTM :mrgreen: - my vote is going to Herivelto). I will try to keep as quiet as I can so as not to upset the apple cart.

Does that mean I won't be able to park next to you, Steve. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Makes me feel special parking next to the site sponsor.








I need to get out more. :(
