Sorry to do this, but I am seeing the Doc tomorrow, hoping for good news so I won't have time to do a full pre match.
Suffice it to say we need to improve on Saturday, although DF feels we did well for 84 minutes in keeping another clean sheet. He felt that the injury to Keshi Anderson played on the players minds and took away some concentration. He also felt the second goal made the score look lop side as Rochdale were a good side but not 2 goals better.
Keshi has gone back to Palace and has a dislocated ankle, which is worse than a straight leg break, DF said he and a everyone at the club wished him well. He, DF is looking to bring in a loan replacement and possibly an out of contract player who he knows prior to the game at Covenrtry.
The team is likely to still be without those who missed Saturday, plus Harry Forrester who has the illness and N'Guesson who took a knock on Saturday. Lund and McCullough are also like liy to miss out this game.
Hope to have good news tomorrow, enjoy the game.
COME ON YOU ROVERS.

Thanks don, it was never my intention to criticize what Ny had said, only to broaden the picture for others to understand what really happened.

Subject now closed Hound, I understand what you are saying, but to take one comment out of context and blow it into something it wasn't, is beyond me.
I shall carry on, as before, but I am not going to go back, after seeing highlights, to check every comment I pass on from Biltcliffe and Son.
There are times when HE doesn't know where he is or even what day it is, that I can put right, any other comment of his I have to take at face value.
Thanks for the comments Donaaldo, by the way it was one shot out of what sounded a very good game to watch.
I echo your thoughts about the change since Dickov left. When interviewed, the players all appear to think things are better, but do not mention the previous manager due to loyalty.

By the way, I have a couple of questions about Darren Ferguson and his post match dress.
Does anyone know if he only owns one suit?
Does he own several suits, but buys them in bulk ?
If the answer is the former, can we all club together to buy him a new one.

On the Evina subject don, i think it is fair to say that Evina has been one of our best players all season, under Dickov, Jones and Fergie.

Agreed; he has, and he will benefit from the improvement of those around him.

Hi yankee, i just got round to reading that post of yours and i agree that you blew it up into something from nothing.
I also saw that you commented on todays match thread "i will try to get the comments right" which is obviously a dig at me.
Now i dont want you to go off on one but really, that is sarcastic in a major way so dont go on at me if you think i am out of order will you.

I was not being sarcastic Hound, I just put that more for a joke than anything else. I try wherever possible to get things right, you'd be surprised how much it annoys me to be wrong.
I enjoy trying to outdo the papers and the Rovers website with the previews to each game. I used to write most of the content for the programmes I produced when I worked at the Rugby clubs.
Apologies if you took it as sarcasm, it was not meant.
